Back Rate Increase

Insurance companies, banks and
other financial institutions have filed
briefs with the Interstate Commerce
commission supporting the petition
Of the railroads for IS per cent in
crease in freight rates. The legal
status Of many millions OF the invest
ments OF these petitioners are en-
dAngered, 1t is said. unless some relief
Is given the railroads.
Interests filing the brief represent
holders of some IS 600, 100000 OF rail-
road bonds or about one-half of the
sl0,7S3, ,O65 900 outstanding at the
close OF 1880.
Petitioners point out "the radical
impairment in the margin OF safety
Of interest on railroad bonds in the
past wear and half would so seri-
ously affect the public interest that
the institutions represented deem 1T
incumbent on them to present the
situation fully and frankly to the
commission.
Unless and until these conditions
are corrected so as to improve the
element Of safety in railroad secur-
tiles. they may not feel justified, in
view of their obligations to their de-
pcsi1ors or policyholders, in making
further investments in railroad bonds,
except in those cases where the fixed
charges of the particular road are
amply earned"
Railroads are finding 1t hard to
raise money upon the present show
ing of earnings. Few of them are in
a position to issue additional bonds
secured by first liens.
Such a situation means curtailment
of operation, inability to keep up
wage scales and reduction in the pur-
chase of new materials. Decline in
rail revenue and credit has undoubt-
edly had direct as we'll as indirect
effect upon general economic condi-
tions.
The action of the insurance and
banking interests indicates the RAM
ifications Of the present credit situa-
ton. It is possible to endanger the
stability of many enterprises when
the earning power of great rail sys-
TENS is curtailed. The process of ad-
justment is most difficult and in
tricate. Many rail experts are not
so sire an increase in rates will solve
their troubles. This move for in
creased rates may be followed by the
practice Of operating economies all
down the line even to a reduction in
wage scales and elimination Of many
burdensome regulations which are
now in effect.
