Boston. Mass, November IS ~ The taxpayers of this country provide free waterways for water transportation. free airways for air transportation and make only q nominal charge for the use of the public highways by commercial highway transportation, declared J. J. Pelley. president of the New Haven Railroad in an address be- fore the New England Council hero today in which he maintained that "subsidized competition is rcsponD- ible for large part of the present troubles of the railroads" The business depression. a little too much regulation of the railroads and q lack Of proper regulatlo1 of other agencies of transporta- ton, were the other major causcs cited by the speaker for the pres ent difficulties of the railroads.
 Mir Policy pointed out that the roalroad problem is of particular interest to the people of New Eng. land because New England more than any other section of this coiln- try is dependent upon efficient and economical transportation for iii raw materials, finished tproduct' and food suDplies.'
 While the competition of sub sidizcd transportation is trouble some to the raliroads." said Mi Pelley ''it is becoming increasing ly burdensOme to the taxpayers This Is particularly true with re- spect to the taxpayers of New England. The six New England states pay nine per cent of the cost of our federal government.
 "When congress appropriate 100 million dollars for the federal >aid of the highways as is dont almost every year, the taxpayers of New England must contribute , million dollars. The waterway bfl congressional approprla, tions totaling 500 million dollari for the development of waterways only means that the New England people are to be required to con. tribute 45 million dollars to sub sidizc water appropriation.
 This country cannot continue 10 pour in hundreds of millions ot dollars each year to subsidfze high way. water and air transportation to compete with the railroads,>Sub. sidizcd transportation to Compete with the railroads. Subsidized
 transportation must bes brought to an end for all time"
 He cited the New York State barge canal 'as prime example oi subsidized water tranapoftatlf.il and declared that the state could have saved money by shutting up the canal and contracting with tht L0ckawnbDa Railroad 50 carry all the freight nt their average rfts pei ton, oyide the shippers wlth free transportation. and still be ir pocket ti.Ss per ton. based on tbt
