A. W. HARRY, ( Foreman Grand Jury. GOVERNJIENT IS J 7 losing Heavily. Deficit On Railroad For Months $182,000,000. Tke Washington, (May 6. Director -Oen-eral Hines, m a discussion of recent railroads eartringe today discloses that: The goverjtment' deficit Jn operat ing the railroads for" the first three months this yeaf, or the difference between net earnings and ene-foutth of the guaranteed annual eomtwnes tion. wai about 1192,000,000' for all roads under federal management. The government's loss for 1S18 was $226,000,000. The entire government Has incur red in 15 months of federal operation was 1418,000,000. Marked reduction of freight traffic under records of similar periods of the last two years were responsible for the bad financial showing, and conditions in April, though net yet reported fully, show no' promise of improvement. Despite the big government deficit, the director general does not contem plate any general increase in the level of rates', but prefers to awak restora tion of norhtal business conditions. The government also incurred a deficit of about fl 440000 ht eight months? operation of the American Railway Express company, the con solidated express corporation, np to March 1, 1919. . "The present unfavorable resuktd naturally lead to agftattkm of the craestion whether there ocrht to1 be an increase in rate," said Mr. Mines in his statement "My own judgment is that the present conditions are too abnormal to serve as a basts for any general change iht the level rf rates and that ft is Brereraoie to deter ac tion on that subject until there she'll have been4 a fuller opportunity to et a more reliable and possibly more normal measure of the conditions. meanwhile restoring to every practt cable economy, studying the. situation with the greatest care, and keeping the public fully Informed as to the developments." Greatlv Exceeds- estimate. The deficit of m2.000.000 incurred bv the government in January. Feb ruary snd March, i figured by Mr, Hines, greatly exceeds the" estimate made public earlier in the day by the bureau of railway economics, because Mr. Hines calculated the gfuaranteed compensation for three' months, as three-twelfths of the annual compen sation. The bureau of railway eco nomics calculated each month's- share on the basis of the average fo that month in the three pre-war years. The railroad administration figures ahto included smelt roads, not includ ed in the so-called class one whfclt are under government eontroi, and also expenses of the central administra tion and tbe cost of operating inland waterways. Mrs. Hines explained that -his syt tern of caJuculatmg tended 'tor show the railroad adminiotratton'i position rather at a disadvantage for the first three months but added r "Still it seems preferable to .charge a fuH one-twelfth of the rental hito each of these months rather shaft -to run the risk of an moreesiOn atuing tfhXt there. there: m any dispbBitton vt onmr- acttfalcsdlts.T it$f.1mi:.
