WITHOU
RAILROADS
What would these
crops be worth !
At this harvest season, when American
farmers have produced bumper crops which
must be transported to markets, the renders
of this newspaper should pause to consider!
the importance of American railroads to the
progress of both rural and urban citizens.
If there were no railroads anJ the farmers were
forced to use trucks or planes, how could these
enormous crops be gotten to market?
With the disturbing conditions which exist in the
transportation industry today, the highly regulated
and over-taxed railroads are suffering such enor
mous losses in revenue that, though they are the
most efficiently operated transportation system in all
the world and afford the lowest co-t t?> the shipper
nnd traveler, the value of their properties is con
stantly beirfg endangered by other forms of trans
portation which operate without adequate taxation
or regulation.
The railroads deserve your patronage. They built
this nation and must continue to be the backbone
I of its transportation system. The steam railroads
arc appealing to the fairness of the American peo
ple in the hope that an equalization of operating
conditions may be brought about among all forms
of transportation so that the
railroads may earn a more
nearly fair return on their
investments.
^ The Transportation Act
permits the railroads to
earn 5 %% on the value of
their properties, and yet since
this law became effective in 1920 the roads did not
earn in excess of 5.45X in the best year, and during the
year 1930 earned 3.54X, though their
taxes have increased $76,500,000 or
22? in this period of time. During
the first four months of 1931 the
rate of return has been only 2.23X.
