P e BRIGHTER PROSPECTS FTOR NEW HAVEN ROAD The New Haven railroad prospects are brighter, The small opefating defiit—- $83,390—which the New Haven rjad showed in June was due to an increase of $232,000 in operating expenses over May, resulting entirely from larger inain- tenance of way and equipment charges in accordance with a necessary increase in the:maintenance programme, uccord- ing to the Boston News Bureau. Many roads which -had been holl- ing up maintenance work, pending the wage decisions, went afiead 271 ex- panded their maintenance forces soon after it was known that wages w¢ 4 be cut an average of 12 per cent. July 1. New Haven also found it neces- sary to do this and began to create the maintenance work a month ago. Had it not geen for this the read would have shown an overatinzg profit in June. Gross ecarnings, however, d:d not increase,as much over May as nad been expected by the management, the actual gain being $391,201, or 3.7 per cent. Gross earnings were, however, the largest since December last.. B il normally heavy in May and this ne- counted in cogsiderable measure for the operating deffeit of $:3,772 shown in that month. The indications are that the July gross will run_about the same as the $9,772 696 of June, possibly 1 per cem:. or per cent. higher. If there is fair -ezov- ery in business in August, New Hav:n should with the cut in wages, which wentinto effect July 1, be able (- earn fixed charges. August, September ans October are usually the best months of the year for New Havan. With an operating deficit of $4,738, 742 for the first six months of 1921, and a deficit after charges of about $13.000,- 000, New Haven has a tremendous handi- cap to avercome for this year. It will take the combination of a brisk revival in traffic and a god slice of revénue from Increased rate divisions to put it sound- ly on jts feet and in position where it may have somethinz above fixed charges for additions and betterments. 2 Chamber Directors to Discuss Revalun- tion.
