They are capitalized for only $71,000 a mile much less than their actual value. Sevcnty-ono thousand dollars today will buy one locomotive. English railways ore capitalized nt $274,000 a mile; the French at $155,000; German $132,000; even in Canada (still in pioneer development) they are capitalized at $67,000 a mile. The average for all foreign countries is $100,000. Low capitalization and high operating effici ency have enabled American Railroads to pay the highest wages while charging the lowest rutes. cffiis advertisement is published by the Shsociation of Railway executives Tilt dnlrtti hftrmalltn nutnlt lit nllnod ilimh mt ' liltrtltrt h Wr Tit AutthtUa KtUmv EuetlMt, 41 BnsJtM.
