The net operating income of the roads for the 10 months, the bureau saild, amounted to $935,047,505, as compared with $806,665,604 during the same period last year, the increase being attributed to a 5.7 per cent in crease in freight trafic and to greater efficlency and economy in operation resulting chiefly from the large capital expenditures that have been made since 1922, Gross operating revenues for the pe- riod was placed at $5,129,774,464, com- pared with $4,976,508,497 in 1924, while operating expenses totaled $3,809,091, 395, compared with $3,803,794,317.
