They are capitalized for only $71,000 am! much less than their actual value. English railways are capitalized at $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 rates.
