Country's Railroads Need New Rolling Stock;

Steelmakers Already Feel Impetus of Demand; Men Return to Jobs.

The Second of a Series.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 8 —Thé railroads entered the depression well | stocked with equipment. Roadways were in'a satisfactory state of maintenance. Terminals, shops and engine houses: were adequate. In the | decade beginning in 1921 their capital expenditures amounted to $7728,000,000.

Five lean years have brought a

matching inventive skill to modern- | | ize equipment, the heavy industries |

| are counting on a revival of railway | spending to help lift them to normal

operations. . Steel Mills. Aided A The impetus is already being felt | steejmakers and fabricators. Operations are speeding up, men are going back to work. Official figures tell the story of | what is being done—and what is needed—to bring the lines back to their former level. _ More new freight cars were on order as of July 1 than in any year since 1929. Orders called for delivery of 28.000 cars, or more than 10 times the number being purchased a year

ago. New freight cars placed in service in the first six months numbered |

| 11,604, compared with 1868 during

the six months of 1935. Locomotives on -order July 1 to- | taled 90, compared with 28 in 1935. | Twenty-three of -the new orders |

| were for engines of electrical and | ! Diesel types. ’

Since 1925 the retirement of] freight cars has exceeded replace- | Railroad | authorities believe that the need for | { about half that number has been | eliminated by increased speed in| { movement and by more prompt loading and unloading, even -if the 1929. volume of freight is restored. | Freight Capacity Increased

The average freight car capacity | | since 1925 has been increased from

period. | Ownership of passenger cars and | locomotives also has slumped; By |

the end of 1935, passenger cars fum- | |

bered 41,584 as compared with 35,040 |

| in 1924. The number of locomatives |

fell from 65,368 to 46,594. ¥ These figures, as translated by in-

dustrialists selling to the railroads,

they can be sustained.

| during low-revenue years, but figures

of the Association of American Rail- |

| roads show that expenditures on this

item declined from a 1920 peak 5 $1,032,000,000 to $394,000,000 in 1935.
