Ruthless and costly theories of railroad management having col- lepeed with colossal losses, the idea is now that the luckless stock- holders can be recouped by piling the load of responsibility and festitation on the backs of the taxpayers. Having bankrupted the New Haven, the ’Frisco, the Missouri Pasific, not to.mention earlier examples, the railroad wreckere of this gemeration are eager to demonstrate that the only power that can eustain the railroads in their present financial condition is the power te tex. Penultimate exploitation can see no other end. But what about the taxpayer? Is he ready to shoulder new burdene—to repair the ravages of recklessness—to restore what some one else has stolen?
