New Orleans, La., March 18.-y There is absolutely no way to solve the railroad problem under private ??n.ershl? wHc,h do" n !nfluj-e rJ"J SiT JSnlT tJS of business. Samuel 0. Dunn of "' hi rf AAlrnaa in i rtiA n ovi 1 1 t rn lint of the railways Has continued un til it has become a menace to the business and prosperity of the en tire country." said Mr. Dunn! . "The railways with their existing capa city could hardly handle a larsrer traffic than they handled In 1920. In view of past experience 'it Is reasonable to assume that after business revives the demand' for transportation will, within a few years be 40 to 60 per cent larger than in 1920. ' ' "Rairway . freight business .in creased 40 per cent between 1906 and 1913,, and again increased 40 per cent between 1913 and 1920. In the former period,-however, the number of locomotives' increased 24 per cent and the number of freight cars also. 21 per cent, while in the seven years ending . with 1920. the number of 'both locomo tives and cars increased only slightly over two per cent. The railwavs handled the heavy busi ness of 1917, 1918 and 1920 large ly th surplus capacity' provided in earlier years.1 Their , surplus capacity was exhausted by 1920,, and future increases of business must be handled, if at all. with in- creases of capacity made ' in fu ture, v . "You may consolidate the rail ways or not consolidate them. You may repeal the rate making pro visions of the Transportation Act as many advocate, or you may let them stand. You may increase the powers of the' Labor Board and the Interstate Commerce Commission, or you, may reduce them,' What ever else is' done. ' however, the railways will not be able adequate ly to increase their facilities; and they will not be able to handle a largely. . . increased . traffic when it comes,-unless-thej? ire allowed q earn: a .net return -. Sufficient to cause new investment of from one billion to two billion dollars a year in their securities for some years. "To allow the railways to earn reasonable net returns does not in volve keeping their rates' high Their net return in 1921 was one half billion dollars less than in 191V although their ' rates were much higher. Their rates had to be so much higher mainly ' because their operating expenses for hand ling a traffic no larger were $2, 800,000,000 more than in 1916. The only remedy f Or high rates is the reduction of operating expenses. One of the things most needed to make possible .large nd permanent reductions of expenses is the in vestment of a large amount of cap ital in improvements which will 'enable the railways to operate mor" cvuiiuuitvaiij, iieiwier tnc capi tal needed for these improvements, nor that needed to, enable the rail ways to expand thir capacity can be" raised unlets the rail-ways are allowed to earn a 'reasonable net return.' ' - - : ' "Reductions of rates are desir able, but ;any reductions raids in' disregard of th necessity of "the railways earning adequate net re- ttfrnav mill inajjfTinJitely postpone needed improvement.
