cial and agricultural loans Of Federal

tracing steadily since last fall. as q
result Of sliding industrial activity.
Should the modest upturn in the
financial center be duplicated through
out the country-and 1t often is
banking circles say the reversal might
mark the end Of this long slump.

PROFIT REPORTED
BY BUS CONCERNS
Operating Revenues Better
Than in Other Forms
OF TRANSFORMATION.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. June ls.-operating
revenues Of motor bus companies for
the first quarter Of 1898 are better. on
the whole, than in other forms Of
transportation. according to An analy-
sis in the June issue OF Bus Trans
portation.
1ntercity companies report . loss Of
less than per cent per mile of line
for passenger revenue, while class /
railroads have suffered . 5.24 per cent
loss In passenger revenues for the
same period.
The bus companies, in each class
OF operation, tntercity, city and city
and suburban. closed the first quarter
with . profit. though small, after pro-
vision to cover anticipated income
taxes. In the face of declining trafic,
though stimulated with q lower aver
age fare per passenger, the volume of
service operated was greater than last
year, except ON the intercity lines and
here the drop was but slightly more
than / per cent.
City Operations Better.
City operations closed the quarter
In better financial condition than did
the intercity companies, due to the
fact that all-bus companies far out
distanced those companies which op-
crate buses merely As . co-ordinated
part Of q complete city-wide trans
portation system.
The reason given is that all-bus
companies operate more buses Del
road-mile-give . greater amount OF
service and protect their schedules
with a greater percentage of standby
buses. The railway -owned fleets, how
ever, are called upon to produce q
greater number Of bus-miles than are
the buses owned and operated by the
all-bus companies but these bus-miles
have q lower earning power. The
passenger revenue per bus-mile Is but
22.3S cents, as compared to 30.08 fol
the all-bus group differential OF
nearly cents Each road-mile OF
the All-bus group showed an earning
power Of 81, ,9O3, as compared TO 5000
for the railway-owned operations.
Bright Spsts Seen.
Conditions in intercity operations
were not at all doleful, according tt
the analysis. In different parts Of
the country there were many bright
spots. In the Southeast, carriers hac
an excellent quarter. reporting higher
revenues and greater profits than last
year. Other groups to show profit
were the Pacific Coast States and the
Southwestern States which closed thu
quarter with profits Of 1923 and $4t
per bus, respectively. But the Mid
north, Eastern and New England
groups failed to cover operating taxes
depreciation and rents. New England
carriers appear to have felt the busi.
ness decline more seriously than othe,
sections: net operating revenue ir
the quarter showed . deficit Of $685.
per bus. Carriers in the industrial
section of the East also failed to show
an operating profit.

eminent RI at present conSid-
ering what they can accomplish
along this line. No doubt some
satisfactory solution of the prob
lem can be arrived at when the
commission has had an opor-
tunitv to study the data which,
are to be compiled.
It would seem that the con-
struction of the so-called Big
Horn Dam would act to relieve
in part the problem as it nov
exists, both in the Big Horn,
vale" and the Lower Yellow
stone. In this connection how
ever, it must be considered that
the Indians of the Crow Res
ervation in Montana have GER
tain vested rights both in the
flow of the stream the dam
site itself and a large portion
of the lands which could be
irrigated from the water stored
if the dam were constructed
which cannot be overlooked
You no doubt are aware that
CONGRESS by Section 10 of the
Act of June 4. 1920 al Stat. us

This act reserved all unallot-
ted lands on the reservation
which we're chiefly valuable III
connection with the develop
ment of water power, such res
ervation being made for the
benefit of the Grow Indians. You
probably also are aware that al

are under wav on the Grow
Reservation in the valley of the
Bic Horn. The minerals being
DEVELOPED by these oner2tloNS
constitute a verv valuable asset
of the Indians. the ultimate vel
ue of which cannot now be es-

the proponents of the con-
struction of the Big Horn Con-
Won Dam must take this fac
tor into consideration.
It would seem to this office
that pending the outcome OF
the negotiations looking to a
compact between the states OF
Montana and Wyoming regard
ing the division of the waters
of the interstate stream. the
Association should take the
matter of the proposed develop
ment up with the council of
the Crow Indians and the SUP
erintendent of the reservation
who will be only too glad to as
sist in arranging for discussions
between the Indians and ren-
resentatives of the association.
In this manner the feelings OF
the Indians as to the DISPOSE
