Shortages of Equipment
Hamper Traffic System

a third of the day coaches are re-
served for the hauling of troops,
and the extra burden of civilian
traffic, much of which was for
merly carried in private automo-
biles, must all be accommodated
in what's left. This all boils
down to the simple fact that
there are still too many people

stay home.

they are getting about 1900 in

WASHINGTON 49, Beset by
manpower shortages, shortages
of equipment and overworked
equipment, American railroad
systems are now preparing for
their supreme test--handling of
the annual harvest traffic which
reaches It's peak in October.
Two bad passenger ira ! n
wrecks early in September
threw a scare into a lot of peo-
pie not entirely familiar with
railroading and not taking the
trouble to be correctly in
formed. Loosely, they spread
rumors that the railroad systems
of the country were breaking
down. that equipment was all
worn out, that proper inspec-
-tions were not being made and
that repairs were not being
made in many cases where they
were known 10 be necessary.
These charges are emphatical-
ly denied by spokesmen of the
Association of American Rail
roads.
There is no denying, however,
that the railroads today are fac
ing a tough problem in han
ding the volume of traffic they
are called upon to carry.
FREIGHT TRAFFIC Up
Freight traffic in the first
seven months of 1913 was 20 per
cent over 1912 which in turn
was 35 per cent over l941.
Passenger traffic Is currently
running go TO 90 per cent above
1912 levels, but for the entire
year of 1913 is expected TO be
some so per cent above last
years levels. Total passenger
travel for 1913 is estimated now
at 80 billion passenger-miles, as
against 81 billion last year.

MANPOWER PROBLEM

IN the magnitude of this prob
lem Is fully recognized by both
railroad and government trans
portation officials, but their pro-
posed solutions have not vet
been effective. The manpower
shortage IS perhaps worse on the
Pacific coast and throughout the
West than II IS in the East, where
there IS larger population and
working force from which 10
draw.
Probabilities for wrecks nat
urally increase under conditions
such as outlined above and in
periods OF rising traffic. II YOU
have a train a day each way on
any gwen track, you have only
one chance OF a wreck by actual
collision. Put on two trains a
day each way and you have six
chances Of collision. Put on
three trains a day each way and
YOU have 81 chances and so on.

Congress Control Of Money
At Stake in Postwar Plans
BY PAUL MALION

THE administration argues
l. that all foreign nations will
have to surrender the same
power under this plan. No
doubt, the British will want TO
if they can get more favorable
rate of exchange for the pound
although Keynes plan envisages
complete British control Of the
board.
But will Joe Stain have any
OF this? Will he give an inter
national board the power over
the value of his rubles. the right
TO channeliZe his foreign trade,
when he has never allowed any
alien even to know the simplest
facts of his financial situation
or his trade positions
Before. the war, he had a
simple currency sterilization
agreement with Britain and
France. It worked very well
without this sovereignty hocus-
pocus. In fact, our treasury
made money on II.
CERTAINLY some kind OF
~ agreement like the old one.
or otherwise, will be necessary
after the war TO facilitate for
eign trade. as most other nations
will be bankrupt in both goods
and money.
They can be expected TO buy
so much more from us than they
sell to us that some facility for
short-term credit will have to
be offered tthis having nothing
to do with lend-lease or the
debts already owed u.s..
In the old days, when they
owed us balances, they shipped
us gold. Under these new
schemes, they would go to the
international authority and buy
international chips. calle
"unitas" or "bancor."
Either way, we are likely TO
wind up with all the unitas or
BANGOR in the world, just as we
wound up with all the gold.
pCT in financial truth the
- new unitas or BANGOR would
merely represent what the gold
now represents-an lou to us.
Our gold is merely metallic
lou, carried on treasury books
at S35 an ounce, but worth very
little in a free market, because
no nation can buy 1t from us in
goods, but must continue to owe
us more and more as long as
we sell them more than they
can pay for in goods.
No compromise seems pos
sible, at least not on the indis-
pensable point Of who controls
the money.
1t looks, therefore, as il the
issue must be fought out TO a
decision.

postwar goal that everyone
wants TO achieve is Sterilization
Of international currencies.
This must be done TO allow
trade. settlement of debts,
peaceful BUSH ess. Yet the
Keynes White proposals 10 the
British American governments
10 achieve this result have set
off so many sparks of criticism
among the financial experts that
il seems likely their plans can
not be carried out.
SO far. the debate has been
confined to the experts.
DOTH PLANS set up an inter-
- national board of directors
primarily 10 handle a fund of
about S5,OOO.0OO,00O British
plan would have no i'm I q d
figures we would contribute
$1,000, 100000. the rest of the
world $3,OO0.O00,O0O.
The contributions TO the kitty
would be IS per cent gold, p
per cent in currency american
dollars. British pounds, etc. and
so per cent in government bonds
of the various countries.
Right here. you run into the
fact that this is not the gold
standard which Lord Keynes
lvaguely) and Mr.. White (di-
rectly) have professed it to be.
II is merely a shadow of gold
substance.
We have S22, 100000 Of
gold in the ground at Fort Knox.
the rest of the world bout
S9,5OO.OO0,0OO. Yet only $780,
100000 would be our gold con-
tribution 10 this fund, leaving us
still holding the So, 900, 0O0,0 900
sack.
The stability Of the fund thus
would depend not on the 25 per
cent gold in its larder. but the
IS per cent of national curren-
cieS and government bonds.
WHAT these currencies are 10
w be worth is to be decided
by the international board. The
group could decide the dollar is
too high in relation to the
pound and order its devaluation.
Indeed. right now, the Brit
ish financial writer's are COM
planning that the pound is really
worth Tin what ii can buy) So
or SIC instead of the S4 which
Americans now pay for the Brit
ish pound under the current
sterilization rate. If these Brit
ish could control the interna-
tional board, they would devalue
our dollar so to Is per cent in
relation to the pound.
The administration says the
board must have this power over
Currencies because. after all. the
real worth OF a dollar, a pound
or a ruble is not its gold back
ing, or. in truth. anything else
hut what il will buy at the
grocery store.
4 Ii THE New Deal manipu-
"A lations in gold did not
change the real value of the
dollar, but the rising war prices
truly devalued it in the in
creased prices you pay. In terms
Of bread, lettuce and meat, your
dollar has really gone down.
The rising opposition says the
scheme gives away our right to
control our own money--and
there is no denying this. AS in
the case of the recent Luce
freedom of the air" exposure,
the administration contemplates
some surrender of its SOW
ereignty over money TO an inter-
national board upon which our
national representation can be
no more than 25 per cent
Though our ante is 40 per cent?.
The administration feels this
is a necessity. The Congress
is sure TO think otherwise be-
cause the Constitution gives il
the power to fix the value Of
money. and IL does not intend
TO surrender that power.
