CHICAGO, April 11.-Irdustrial and
commercial activities of the United
States are built more largely around
the railroads than in any other part of
the world and for that reason this
country is peculiarly dependent upon
the prosperity of its railroads for the
prosperity Of all other business. There
fore, the prosperity of the country will
be materially aided by making it pos
sible for the railroads to prosper.
This was the opinion expressed by
Fred w. Sargent, president of the Chi
cago and Northwestern Railway Co. in
the course of talk on Railroads and
Prosperity" broadcast over Nation
wide radio chain. The program was
part of a series of talks on present con-
ditions, sponsored by Halsey, Stuart 8,
Co.
In the course of his talk, Mr. Sargent
referred to the relationship of the rail-
roads and Government, saying:
In some countries the policy of the
Government toward its railways is to
aid them by low taxes and subsidies.
In the United States the policy of Gov
eminent has been for a number of
years, and now is, to impose the most
stringent restraints and regulations upon
railway management, involving every
phase ana feature OF operation, rates,
extensions and abandonments, account
ing and the issuance Of securities.
Railroad Taxes.
I'm the United States we have grown
into a policy that taxes the railroads to
the utmost for the support CT Govern
ms Mt and the subsidizing of competing
forms of transportation.
I'VE have used the railroads of the
United States as tax collecting agency.
and through this means are securing
revenues upon which national, State
dependent.
Since 1890 railway property invest
ment in the United States has increased
203 per cent, but railway taxes have
increased 1920 per cent, which Is 270
per cent more than the increase in all
other taxes during the same period.

stocks of all dairy products on January
/, 1881, in terms of milk equivalents,
were 14.4 per cent lighter than on jan
uary 1, 1880. They also say that this
decrease is significant in view of the
prevailing mild weather last Winter,
which greatly encouraged fresh produc-
ton and which also tended to discour-
age movement Of supplies from storage
houses.
Cold storage holdings of butter, the
storehouse for excess supplies, totaled
30,556,000 pounds on April /, 1890, al
most four times the average holdings of
approximately 5000, 900 pounds for the
five preceding years.
This year the holdings have been al
most halved. Unofficial estimates place
the total around 100000 pounds This
is still twice the normal carry-over, but
the gloom is less thick, because already
nearly tWo-thirds of the excess supply
on hand last April has been absorbed.
The Government Bureau of Agricul-
tural Economics, however, does not hold
too optimistic view of the situation for
1881. The bureaus estimate of the stu
alton says that demand for dairy prod
uctS has been distinctly reduced by the
business depression, manifested by the
curtailed consumption of fluid milk and
the failure of lower prices to induce any
appreciate increase in butter consump-
ton.
Prospect for 1881.
The Government estimate also saws
that undoubtedly with business recov-
cry demand will improve but the i'm
provement throughout 1891 is expected
to be comparatively slight Imports and
exports of dairy products were below
normal in 1880. Domestic dairy prices
have now declined nearly to the world
level, but foreign markets do not afford
an advantageous outlet for the Ameri-
can dairy industry. The outlook is for
continued low prices for 1881"
