•roads rate increases which will increase their annual revenues about' $100.(WO. said: "The Interstate Commerce Conr-j mission has granted additional rev-. enues to the roads and, in accepting such increases, the railroads should apply them to their em-1 i ployes rather than to railway in-‘ i vestors. "During the boom years the railroads spent millions of dollars for improvements and new equipment. Today much of that equipment is idle. The great new locomotives are standing in the yards. Thou ands of cars are not moving. This idle equipment is not earning a return. "Bit the workers are not idle.l They are entitled to a return for I the investment of their energies! I and their lives." Railroad spokesmen countered I with the declaration that the quej-' itlon is not one of paying a return on investment but of maintaining 1 • the financial equilibrium of the jcountry. They said all expenses,' ; including wages, had been reduced i drastically but that the* financial condition of the railroads demandled a further cut. A desperate econ-1 • omic situation would result, they said, if insurance companies, bound by law to hold only securities on ■ w'hlch a fixed return is guaranteed, i should dump their railroad stocks ‘ ’ on the open market.” - 1 "* —*-*^™o~‘ — 1 *—— —“ FARM BUREAU IN CONVENTION i .CDI4TINUIS.D FROM FaUE *'NE which has advocated different meth I ods for crop surplus control.
