INJUSTICE TO RAILROADS
To the Editor:
One might say that the United
States was born through the injustice
of taxation without representation"
In this day there is another body suf-
fering from just such treatment-the
railroads. They are taxed by munich
pality, by State and Federal Govern
ment to no end; they are also regu-
lated by these same bodies in all their
operations. On the other hand, we
have the bus lines-passenger and
freight-acting as common carriers
with no such regulations as TO rates
to be charged, schedules to be main
tanned, safety regulations to be COM
Piled WITH, reports to be filed with
various governmental bodies and
various other obligations, all of these
being very costly. And as to right Of
way the bus lines have it free. The
public highways practically belong to
them: By right of size they take what
they want of the roads and it is a
foolish individual who will attempt to-
clash with them in his pleasure car
for the rights on the road. Additional
to this fragrant inequality, we have:
the governmental authorities behind:
numerous waterway projects which
compete with the railroads. But the:
most unjust part of it is hat in the.
main these waterway systems are:
maintained through Government aid,
possibly to a great extent from taxes
paid by the railroads.
Thus it is explained that the en-
ormous outlay which the railroads arc
compelled to make for meeting ex-
penses, plus the fact hat they are
compelled to charge what a tariff calls
for (rebating being unlawful), places
them on an unfair basis with their
competitors; and this, in effect, is
taxation without representation
inasmuch as they cannot possibly
match their competitors while burden
ed with the obligations stated.
Accordingly, as we believe our fore
fathers were right IN the stand they
took in 1875, we as a fair-minded
people should see that the wrong be-
ing perpetrated by the bus lines and
waterways system should be rectified
not forgetting that the railroads as
q~uasi-public institutions are the wards
of the public and that our public
welfare is infinitely dependent upon
their successful operation.
I CHARLES P. McEyoY.
