TO SPEND $4,000,000 Of interest to Norwich stockholders of the New Haven road stock is a set. of answers announced from railroad pres- idents, replying' to a questionnaire re- cently sent out by the Railway Journal.

He /is quoted as estimating that a tuaird to a half of the reduction will be offset by new rates, declining prices, and in- creased efficiency. He favors normal maintenance budgets if financial condi- tlong permit and is quoted by the Rail- way Jeurnal as saying that the New Haver. plas about $4,000,000 expenditure for ‘enlargement of mechanical depart- ment facilities, freight train yards, au- tomatic signals, some additional locomo- tives, etc. President Daniel Willard of the Balti- mare & Ohio and Carl R.
