C but to the fact had been, of necessity, directed al nu st entirely into revenue producing -channels. cl' the community, that exiienditures for some time F as ^ He then proceeded to give a survey of the railroad situation as it now exists. "Notwithstanding the rail roads were returned to private owner. ship in an impoverished condition as regards upkeep of equipment ami condition of roadbed," he said, "aftei 2d months of government oj»ei atiun, they handled, last year, the greatest offered to them, and all this after j the most disastrous strike in rail road history, which has not yet been | entirely adjusted, and while every ef : fort was being made to restore equip amount of traffic that had ever been ment and road bed to normal con ditions. And this was dene without | congestion and with no appreciable 1 car shortage. i 1 N Dividends Reduced He stated that when he came to i Montana 20 years ago, the Northern , Pacific, the Great Northern and the j C. M. & St. Paul roads were all pay ing annual dividends on their stock of 7 per cent. Even the most pros.* pei sous roads have this year c u their dividends from 7 per cent to ' per cent. The C. M. & St. Paul, ha disc-continued the payment of divi dends entirely, as did the Sr*» line Even the Chicago & Great Western ! ordered a dividend cut from 5 pe. cent to 3 per cent. He attributed the present unsettled condition in the railroad world to a Î variety of causes, prominent araon : which are recent crop failures, th 1 period of reconstruction following the 1 greatest war in all history, and to the i birth of a socialistic and radical . 1 school of thought whose object, i. seems to be is to steadily and per j sistently deprive the carriers of any benefits or profits derived from car l * i ful, economical and efficient method? ! of operation, with the idea of ultin. ; ately forcing them back int mental ownership. > govern . Reading from a sta r emer> »hf>win value of certain fann crops fnm ; to 1023. as compared with tru .in 1021 cost of their transportation, he point ed out that the ordinary marke, fluctuations have more seriously af : fected the price the farmet ge his grain than has the freight rate. "A reduction of rates would not h materially' helped the wheat farmer, he said. "As the present rate is 12 for . av I ! cents per one hundred pounds, or 27 cents per bushel, even a 10 per cent reduction, the cut* most commonly ! demanded, would result in tion of only two a Te<iuc and four-tenths j cents per bushel, a most insignificant ( amount when compared to the various j other factors which have so adverse- , ly affected the wheat farmer.'' I>mg and Short Haul He defended the present difference ! in rates between the long and short j haul business, the long haul rate be-| ing in the nature of a preferential, by reference to the preponderating petition of the Panama canal, the in- ( ference being that if the long haul, J or trans-continental business, was J net favored to some extent, the water j J carriers would ultimately get the;J east-bound movement and the com- j coast to coast business, not only t* the .detriment of the carriers^ and their stockholders but also to the territories now served by the rail lines. He closed by expressing the appre ciation of the Northein Pacific for the business as well as the good wili extended to it by the people of .hi* community, and by stating opening of the new station woujU no doubt open a new era of good wifl between the road ar 1 the people of the Gallatin valley, f new station, being dr piied by local nu reliants. * Following the mealing, the rail of ieials anil members of the chamber of commerce informally inspected tins cn in cars sup.
