And this, it is pointed out, in | the face of decreased operating expenses | and increased efficiency. | Nor are prospects any more cheering, i according to R. H. Aishton, president | of the American Railway Association, ! over whose name the statement appears, | for the slump this year, he explains, is { not particularly traceable to the general i state of business, but is rather the con- tinuation of a situation that has been developing over the years. Traffic Shows Drop. Both freight and passenger traffic have fallen off. So far as the latter is concerned, 1930 saw it at the lowest ebb in 20 years, amounting to 27,000,- 000,000 passenger miles. In the move- ment of freight traffic, preliminary re- ports indicate that the loading of revenue freight for 1930 will total 45.- 851,000 cars, a reduction of 13 per cent | under 1929. In net ton miles, the drop | + will be 14 per cent. | A variety of causés is responsible for i the showing, according to Aishton re- | port, and among these specified are in- creased use of private automobiles, \motor trucks and busses; the increase {in transcontinental tonnage handled through the Panama Canal, and the in- creased traffic over inland waterways. One other sore spot to the railroads which is not specified in his summing up_is pipe lines. In connection with these factors which are tearing away at their rev- enue, Aishton calls a‘tention to the “policy recently unanimously adopted by the railroads of this country and deemed necessary in order to assure | continuance of adequate transportation service, terming it “the outstanding dz- velopment, so far as the railroads are concerned, of the current year.” Would Extend Regulation. Principally, it is known, this “policy” is directed at unregulated operation of busses and pipe lines and waterway transportation which is the beneficiary of Government help. The “policy” Wtselt, as set out, asks for: (a) A respite from rate reductions and suspension by regulating bodies, both intrastate and interstate, and from action that will increase the expenses of the carriers; (b) respite from legis- Iative efforts of either the National or State Legislatures that would adversely affect rates or increase the expenses of 0000500000000000000000000 Felix Mahony Art School Commercial Arts Day—Professional Courses Ink.
