Wasteful Public Works By ELIOT JONES Professor of Transportation and Public Utilities, Stanford University In a number of industries—for ex- ample, railway and water transpor- tation—a very large investment of capital per dollar of annual revenues is required. The investment is not only large, but it is highly special- ized, that is, the plant can not well be divert- ed to some other use. Ob- viously under such conditions the advisability of providing ad- ditional plant should be care- fully consid- ered. The pro- vision of un- needed facilities is a waste of the country’s resources, and reduces the national income. To prevent such waste in railroad construction, the government forbids the roads to construct new lines un- Jess they have obtained from the In- terstate Commerce Commission a “certificate of public convenience and necessity.” When an application is requested the Commission inquires into the financial responsibility of the applicant, the need for the line, and the @ffect it will have on existing agencies - of. transportation. Unless satisfied that the new line will pro- mote the public interest the Com- mission denies the certificate. Thus, some years ago, a group of | responsible capita sked the Com- | * mission for perm: n to build a new | i railroad across the State of Penn- j sylvania. The line was to be low- grade. and it was admitted that the cost of operation would be less than on the established routes. But the/ Commission refused its permission, on the ground that the resultant | economies would not be sufficient to | offset the injury to established rail- | road and other properties. Compare this policy with the icy of the Administration in waterway | construction! Recently the President | (Address questions to the a::tl — d Your Affairs { assured a convention of St. Lawrence Seaway enthusiasts that he would press for Senate ratification of the Seaway treaty with Canada. If this treaty is ratified, and the contem- plated projects are carried out, there will be a substantial diversion of trat- fic from the railroads to the water lines. This diversion will not take place because the Seaway can handle the traffic more economically than the railroads, for every competent and unbiased person who has studied the matter agrees that the cost, cluding taxpayer contributio1 be greater by water than by rail. The diversion will take place be- cause the cost of transportation to the shipper is made less, by virtue of the fact that the highway is sup- plied at the expense of the taxpayers. ‘The Seaway, if constructed, will thus destroy a part of the investment in railroad property, nat so that goods may be transported more eco- nomically, as in the case of the pro- posed railway across Pennsylvania, but so that a less efficient form of transportation, provided at public ex- pense, may supplant a mote efficient form ‘of. tion, supplied at the expen investors.
