In an address on "The Railroad Purile,” delivered In Philadelphia, January 3. Dr. Emory R. Johnson, dean of the Wharton School of Finance and one of the nation's leading authorities on railroad transportation, declared that "after the first of March the companies must be self-supporting or become bankrupt.” Continuing, he said: “Can the railroads be successfully financed and operated when they are returned to their owners? For two years the government has drawn upon the public treasury to sustain the

credit of carriers.

“If the carriers avoid failure their Income must cover operating expenses, maintenance and capital charges; if the companies succeed to the extent that Is demanded In public Interest, they must not only be able to meet unavoidable expenses, they must have sotne surplus revenue. "If there Is no Income to be used in part for betterments and In part for building up a surplus or reserve fund, the public will not Invest In (lie railroads, their credit cannot be re-estab-lished and maintained and corporate ownership and operation of the rail-

ways will fail.

"The Income of the carriers is determined by public regulation, and properly so; but from this it follows that the country must decide between a policy of adequate revenues to the railroad corporations of the future and a policy of government ownership. "The government Is entitled to credit for having given greater unity to railroad operation, both line and terminal. It has done much that the carriers were prohibited from doing. The pub- ( lie now realize that co-operation of the carriers In the Joint use of equipment and terminals should be encouraged. instead of prevented. “The railroad legislation now pending In Congress must solve many difficult questions, but the most critical one Is that of providing for the future regulation of railroads In accordance with a policy that will cause the carriers to secure revenue sufficient to enable them to perform their services adequately and with progressive efficiency. The railroad business must be made attractive to private Investments or the country will have to adopt government ownership and operation of the railroads. There Is no other alternative."
