He presented copies of letters sent by him in 1918 to Presidents Rea of the Penn- sylvania and Willjard of the Balto more & Ohio among others, notifying them he considered their management unsatisfactory and inoffictent “The measures taken during the year 1918 called for no apologies,” said a report signed by A. H, Smith president of the New York Central, and six other railroad men, who were regional directors under the railroad administration, which Mr. McAdoo presented as “conclusive answer” to the charges he mentioned. “They Were caused by wna ions, and the efficient opera the rail roads in support he government during the war justifies every act of the administration.” . Disregarding the unfairness of com- paring railroad operations during the war when general needs of the coun- try had to be put secondary to the “4mperious necessity of war,” Mr McAdoo sald the report he cited and also the records showed that by any test “reflroat. operations in the year 1918 were conducted with great ef-| ficiency, skill and ability.” Gontrast-| e4 with tha: in 1917 thelr condition, approaching paralysis, he said “made the rafiroad system of the United States the strongest ally of the Ger- man kaiser.” Mr. McAdoo quoted from the statements of ratlroad pres!- Gents before congressional commit- tees and the interstate commerce in that year, to st remarks, mentioning notably testimony of President Rea, who said their con- dition “had become a menace to the country.” | ‘There was a deficit in rafiroad rev-| enues during 1918, under income and rentals to their, owners of $216,000,-| 000, Mr. McAdoo said, but that rep-| resented “a part of the war cost, an| expenditure for which there {s compensation but victory.” He mersages sent to Wilson by the p France and Italy, in Februar; begging for 500,000 tons of stuffs, to supply which whole trair no of empty cars had to be rushed from|®# the Atlantic coast to the middle west, for weeks, and rushed back with] equal expedition to the ports, loaded “No further evidence than that fram the lips of raflroad executives is necessary to demonstrate that’ the railroads at the end of 1917 were in @ condition of di postponed equipment, ie sald. as been graphically told Nroad administration adopt- two possible methods for the g ral conditions.
