ROYAL TOURS HELD
TAX ON RAILWAYS
Special Trains and Special
Cars for Foreign Visitors
Big Expense Item.
By the Associated Press.

Supplying of special trains and cars
to distinguished foreign visitors who
wish to see this country in de luxe
style has become an interesting phase
of Americn railroading.
Through the courtesy of the rail.
roads, In many cases, members of
royal families and other notables have
been able to tour the United States
and Canada in luxurious equipment at
nominal cost to themselves. The trans
continental jaunt of Queen Marie of
Rumania and the earlier visit of
President Machado of Cuba are out
standing instances when the railroads
themselves played host and footed
most of the transportation bills.
Cost Next to Nothing.
The Crown Prince and Princess of
Sweden paid for the special car which,
attached to regular trains. took them
visit, but the Prince of Wales and
Marshal Foch of France rode in spe-
cial trains that cost them next to
nothing.
The most consistent user of special
trains Is President Coolidge, but he
buys his own ticket out of a special
appropriation provided for the pur-
pose. The Government at times en-
ploys special equipment with which
to transport distinguished visitors
from New York to Washington and
return when they pay Official calls to
the National Capital.
More than the desire of the railroads
to be courteous hosts to visiting sight
seers Is necessary In supplying trains
at nominal cost to the guests. Under
the law only railroad employees are al
lowed free transportation and in order
to carry Queen Marie. for example, at
81 fare, a special tariff had to be
filed with the Interstate Commerce
Commission and that body's approval
received.
Queen Rides 10000 Miles for 81.
In Marie's case, she paid out of her
own pocketbook 81 for herself, her two
children and each member of her i'm
mediate party to each of the several
railroads over which she travelled on
her 10,000-mile tour. Railroad fares
alone, at Winter tourist rates, would
have totaled approximately 500 900 for
the nearly 80 persons aboard the
Royal Rumanian.
Another huge expense borne by the
roads was that incident to stocking
diners and private kitchens aboard
the several special cars making up, the
royal train. Special illustrated book
let's describing the country through
which the Queen passed and elaborate
menu cards also were paid for by the
railroads.
Railroad men agreed that the Royal
Rumanian was the most luxurious
equipment ever assembled, compris-
ing six special cars, all Of them the
property of railroad presidents. and
equipped with the most modern con-
veniences.
