But t is the fact Today the railroads of the United States are handling more freight than at any time during the war. And they are doing it with less adequate facilities | for freight cars wear out with use just as any other conveyance does. Replacement has not been main- tanied at a sufficient rate, owing to strikes and to the extreme demand for raw materials While war was on, nonessential freight movements were restricted, and the vast movement of essential freight was handled successfully. Today there are no comparable priorities, and carloadings have above wartime levels and promise to go higher- cars can be found Furthermore, it was possible high priorities to construction In peacetime, manufacturers of rolling stock have to compete for steel with manufacturers of passenger automobiles, refrigerators and thousands of other peacetime commodities. They also must contend with strikes ely avoided in wartime. In consequence, freight cars are not being built at much more than half the rate of 1944 This sitvation will be worse before view of the normal increase of freight in the autumn and the inability of railroads or government to put | essential traffic into a favored position. It illustrates lone of the difficulties of the transition from a con- trolled economy to a relatively free economy. A rail transport system that was adequate for the colossal burden of wartime, with strict priorities in operation, is not adequate for the even more colossal movement of goods in a postwar period of inflation and high industrial output if in wartime of new rolling stock to assign it is better, in “For States h It is fortunate several months multiple births in United ceeded the Uncle Sam that the greatly normal incidence. for future taxpayers United | he soared | s g | [ !
