The railroad freight rate for an average ton per mile hauled is less than one cent; and the rate per passen ger per mile is an average of about two cents. The wear and tear on shoe leather for a mile walk would probably exceed the rail rate for an average ton of freight or a pas senger for the same distance. When some one says "high freight and passenger rates," consider the above facts. There's not a better bargain in the whole world than in U. S. railroad service. Today, with high operating costs, freight and passenger rates per mile average 16% and 46% less, respectively, than 2 5 years ago. Railroads are large, mass transportation agencies, efficiently operated as free and private enterprise, in a public service essen tial both in peace and war.
