THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
MARKET RESISTS SELLING PRESSURE IN GOODFASHION Recessions, Though General, Are Slight, Despite Unsettling Influences, The WALL STREET JOURNAL NEW YORK, Sept. I.—Stocks opened at general recessions on the Stock Exchange today, reflecting the beginning of the anthracite strike and the operiing of hostilities between the Italians and Greeks. Baldwin, Can, Bethlehem, Steel. Studebaker and other industrial leaders showed fractional -losses and active rails also started lower. However, considerable attention was paid the report of MerVantile Reviews that business was gradually breaking the summer lull. This tendency was considered far more important as an influence on stock values than developments abroad or labor troubles in the hard coal field. First Hour After the initial offerings had been absorbed selling pressure disappeared from the general list and the market was exceedingly dull toward the end | of the first hour, with the speculative ; interest confined to movements of , sp Davison Chemical took ; a nose-dive to 37. compared with Thursday’s high of 72, but this weak ; ness was offset by Dupont, which displayed special strength, moving up to anew high on the current rally on expectation of dividend increase before the end of the year. ( losing Hour Davison Chemical's drop unsettled the whole market at the start of ,the second hour soiling was renewed among the industrials. American Can declined, but Colorado Fuel managed | to retain the major part of its recent gain. However, in the fact of unsettling factors influencing the market, | stocks held a steadiness that bespoke lan underlying strength that was not [to be readily shaken. Rails held up I especially well, reflecting optimism of I Ipadlng executives who have made | favorable expressions on the rail outlook so- the remainder of the year.

Illinois Central System Discusses Taxation and Government Ownership Taxes constitute one of the larpe sinple items of expense in providing railway transportation service. Federal, state, county and municipal taxes paid by Flass 1 railroads for 1922 amounted to $300,620,358, an increase of nearly 205 per cent over their 1911 taxes, which were $98,626,848. The rate at which railway taxes have increased in recent years exceeds the rate of increase in any other item of the cost of providing railway service. If freight and passenger rates had increased on the same scale as taxes from 1911 to 1922. the average passenger fare in 1922 would have been about 6 cents a mile and the average charge for carrying one ton of freight one mile in 1922 would have been about 2 1 j cents. Instead. the average passenger fare, in 1922 was 3.028 cents a mile, an increase since 1911 of only 54 per cent, and the average charge for carrying one ton of freight one mile in 1922 was 1.176 cents, an increase since 1911 of only 58 per cent. In the analysis of the Illinois Central System dollar for 1922, recently published, it was shown that 6.89 cents of every dollar received were required to pay the system s taxes last year, as compared with only 4.4 4 cents devoted to dividends. The various governments collecting taxes —federal, state, county and municipal—received about 55 per cent more revenue from the operations of the Illinois Central System in 1922 than its owners did. Comparatively few of our citizens openly favor government ownership of the railroads. However, many of them are advocating a substantial reduction in freight and passenger rates. Some are espousing the cause of restoring the right of the forty-eight states to make rates in conflict, with interstate rates. Others favor confiscating railway property by scaling down values unreasonably. Those who seek thus to hamper the railroads are simply playing into the hands of the advocates of government ownership. Making it more and more difficult for the railroads to exist under private ownership is recognized as the only method through which government, ownership of the railroads is likely to be brought about. W The federal government not tax its own property. The states do not tax the property of the federal government. They could not do so in the case of governmentowned railroads, just as They cannot tax the property of, government-owned postoffices or forts or arsenals. Ts the railroads should become the property of the federal government, there would be destroyed a source of tax revenue which in 1922 amounted to more than $300,000,000. From what source would the federal government, states, counties and municipalities make up this lost revenue? It is not reasonable to expect that, lower railway rates would compensate the people for their governments’ loss of tax revenue. In the light of our own experience during federal control and the experience which foreign countries have had, there is every reason to believe that government ownership of the railroads would result in large deficits, which would also have to be made up by increased taxation. There can be no reasonable doubt that the effect of government ownership would be higher freight and passenger rates, poorer service and increased taxation. Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited. 0. H. MARKHAM, President, Illinois Central System.
