S. OWNERSHIP President Says That Some Action Must be Taken to Avoid “Costly Blunder” Kansas City, Mo., June 23.—Con- solidation of the railroads of the country into a small number of sys- tems isa r full of promise towards solution of the transportation problem, Presi- dent Harding declared nere last night in the second prepared address ot his western trip. f the em consolidations will | not afford the solution,” he said “then our failure will enfotce a castlier experiment and the one greav commitment which I hope the United States wil] forever escape.” The executive expressed the belief that one great commitment sxovernment operation—would be “a cMlossal blunder, whiea woulg de- stroy initiative, infeet us with politi- corruption, create regional jeal- pusies and impose incalculable cost ‘on the publie treasury.” Railroad Labor Board. Discussing relations between car- riers and their employes as a vital factor in the transportation situa- ; tion, the President announced that he favored continuance of the Rail- ! road Labor Board “under such modi- | fi cem most Hkely to make su ful.” He said he a nee convinced that the test of his plan had been “a complete and | entirely fair one,” but added that ' “there is little to hope for until all coneerned are ready to comply promptly with the board’s decisions.” “Iam frank to say,” he continued, “I do not hope for compliance on! the part of employes so Iong as de- cisions are ignored by the managers.” The sort of consolidation of the carriers which Mr. Harding advocat- ed contemplates a constitution of the larger’ systems so that the weaker y i and unprofitable lines would be able to lean upon the financial strength of the stronger and profitable ones until the growth of the country makes them all earn a just return upon the capital invested. The whole would be under “rigorous government supervision.” Such a consolidation, the Presi- ddot asserted, would “effect a dimu- njfion in rates without making a net return impossible” and at the same time “make sound finance possible for expansion,” “There now appears to be no dif- fieulty about any constitutional in hition to the voluntary consolidatiot. ty uthorized by Congress,” the ex- ecitive continued, “But the problem of reconciling the interests of the hundreds of different ownerships and managements of lines to be merged into systems has nroven a task for whic hno solution has been found. Expects Legislation. “It is, therefore, being seriously proposed that the next step be to! further amplify the provisions for consolidation so as to stimulate the consummation. It is my expectation } that legislation to this end will be brought before Congress at the next session, “There are some roads—many of the smaller ones in fact—whose con- tinued operation is absolutely vital to many thousands of people, to con- siderable towns, to large areas of country, whose revenues simply can not provide financial facilities through earning, pending a consider- able growth in community population, say nothing of earning any return whatever on capital invested. iNo legerdemain .of court processes, re- ceivers’ certificates or financial jug- gling, can save them. They must get more revenue or stronger support or quit operating until the country is Amore largely developed.

A committee was named at that con- ference, he said, to induce Congress to pass the Gooding price-minimum on wheat bill. “It was the feeling at the Chicago conference that everything that could be done” to create greater markets | for products should be done, and while a committee was at work in- ducing Congress to pass a price-fix- ing measure, action should be taken toward developing a sofing and safe agricultural program to insure bet- ter markets ang more stabilized prices, Price-Fixing Plan. “The reason the conference de- clined to also adopt a price-fixing resolution was that many felt this | had been taken care of in the St./ Paul conference and the Chicago con- ference should be devoted to eco- nomic measures tending to limit pro- duction and increase consumption apd by co-operation of wheat raisers The Governor saiq that after going through the conference he felt per- sonally confident that'the chief hope for the future lies in such organiza- tions as the farm -ureau, national wheat growers organization, and added “I hope the farmers In increas- ing numbers will join in the build- | ing of these organizations and will have the constant “co- operation! of. business and .professional men.” Must Take Interest, “While our experience in the past shows frequently the difficulty in finding the best kind of men to take active charge of the work of these organizations, there is a positive need of them and no one should be deterred from joining, and with the co-operation by members the highest type of leadership can be. retained and secured if not already actively engaged.” The Governor saig that in the past there has been too much of a dis- Position when a co-operative organi- zation was formed to rely on the; mere fact that co-operation wags an open sesame to success, but added that there can be no hope fof suc- cess in any co-operative organization until the memberghip takes as keen, interest, as they woulg in their pri- | vate business, and apply the same sound principles of business organ: ization.
