Such procedure isn’t fair or hon- est. The only basis of comparison approaching fairness would be to compare this average rate on all the | business handied on an Alaska route | with the average rate on all the busi. | ness handled on the other route dur. inlg the same period. And then be- causo of the differences in conditions on the two routes—differences In con- | ditions of navigation, size of ships that can bo operated, volume and constancy of traffic, etc—the com. elusive than It would be to compare the government railroad in Alaska, considering its rates, operating con. ditions, volume of traffic, etc., with the New York Central or Pennsyl- vania raflroads.

It isn't necessary for anyone to |take our word as to this contract. It is a matter of public record. The contract or coples of it can be found }in the office of the secretary of the |interior and the chairman of the Alaskan engineering comminsion. A copy of it was filed with the United Btates shipping board, and Mr, Rust- gard was also furnished a copy. Yet his article In your paper he ig- nores this truthful record and un y says again that the Alas eering commission has been for its own freight approxi- ree times as much as is paid by the canneries for freight of |{he saise general character, which ta jabsolutely incorrect as the contract |wan renewed for 1923 at a reduced figure. Ono more specific item, In the article in your staton that the to by the Alaska |from January 1, 1908, to December |31, 1922, amounted to $9,263,033.75, which he says is at the rate of 40 per cent per annum on all the money invested by the stockholders. He re- paying matel paper he fers to this period as 14 years, but it} |ian't very hard figuring to determine that from January 1, 1908, to Decem- ber 31, 1922, is 15 years, | Without calling attention to the fact that the company has made ex- ; tensive profits in buying and selling | steamers and in operating steamers on other routes outside of Alaska, | which amount, whatever It may be, fs included In the total net profits for the 16-year period, whatever that ‘amount may be, let us take tho fig- ure he gives and analyze It, DENIES PROFITS ARE AS REPORTED } Nine million, two hundred sixty. |three thousand, thirty-three dollars jand neventy-five cents profit in 15| | years divided by 15 gives tho profit | | for each of the 15 years as $617,535.58. | As a matter of fact the company |never made that much profit any year of its existence. In an inter view with Mr, Rustgard, which was published in the Anchorage Daily Times on September 5, 1922, he advo- cated a reduction in the rates of 35 per cent or 40 per cent to begin with, but stated that the rates must come | down still more. Now if we take the gross earnings | of the Alaska Steamship company on Alaska freight traffic for 1922 we find that the amount is $2,509,210.98, on carriage of 314,000 tons, which jshows an averago rate of $7.99 per ton, A reduction of 40 per cent in the freight rates would, as a matter of course, mean a reduction of 40 per cent In the gross earnings from |frelght traffic and any reduction in |the gross earnings without reducing operating expenses would mean a similar reduction {n net earnings. Therefore a reduction of 40 per cent on gros freight earnings of $2,609,- 210.98 would amount to $1,003,684.39 and would wipe out the annual profit of $617,635.88, which Mr. Rustgard says the company has made, and would leave the company to put up A deficit of $386,148.51 for the privi- lego of operating during tho year 1922, When it is considered that Mr, Rustgard’s figures as to earnings are incorrect and that the company's net earnings in Alaska operations were very much less than the amount he states, it is very plain that a 40 per cent reduction In freight earnin would put the company out of bust. ness. It is a matter of very simple arithmetic to seo that a reduction of 246-10 per cent in the rates would ex- actly wipe out the profit of $617,- 635.88 which he says the company made, and more than wipe out the smaller profit which the company actually made. We think it Is unnecessary to fo any further, It really seems a waste of time and effort to take any note of his “frenzied finance” figures, but even taking them as correct, if a re- duotion of 246-10% in tho freight rates would completely wipe out the carnings he says we are making, It really would look as tho they would not stand much reduction. Another thing we would mention is that Mr. Rustgard {s responsible to no one for the correctness of his figures, while our annual reports must be verified on oath and are | checked by interstate commerce com: | mission inspectors and Internal reve: nue officers and are filed with the interstate commerce commission, {Internal revenue department and the Territory of Alaska, and are subject to public inspection.
