It Is simply this: Tho new railroad law enncted by the last Congress vir tually legalizes every principal of the onco famous comlnuulty-of'lntercst scheme, which was conceived by those railroad giants Harrlman, Hill and Cnssatt. Just make only a casual study of the now law, and you wilt Hnd that every provision dcclnttd Illegal and con flscatory by the Sherman anti-trust law Is permitted, suggested and recom mended by the neww.

WJi?n tho Interstate Commerce Commission wroto its decision Iri the rate case recently, it thereby, signed a treaty of , peace with tho railroads. The long war against their prosperity, which began nlmost with the enactment of the first interstate commerce act In 1887, has nt last been ended by an enlight ened policy orjregulatlon. ''Instead of rates being ndjusted from time tOtlmo nt tlm n-lilm nf nr) Interstnle Commerce Commission, with its ronstantl.u- changing personnel, the inilroads of the country ore now guar anteed by law a minimum return, upon capital actuajly invested, of VA per cent.

"From the VCrV heclnntno nf ninln. tlon in this country the attitude of tho controlling authorities was one of short sighted restriction. The carriers were grudgingly granted rote increases from time to time, but these were never largo enough to meet requirements to permit them to earn enough to keep in sound condition and at the same time give Investors that feeling of security neces sary to attrAct the capital required for expansion to meet the constantly grow ing need for better railway facilities." Future Is Assured Continuing, the circular says in part: "Now all this has been changed. .The naw policy, as evidenced by the commis sion's decision, takes nccount ncrf only of the needs of today, but of the future as well. Never hereafter will it be pos sible for the railroads to 'starve' bh they have in the past, unless It be becauso of Inefficient management. Instead of b.-in1; in a position comparable to that of a factory doing poorly in spite ofan enor mous demand for its product because Ir ceuld not command' a decent price, the railroads arc assured of n good return on the capital invested. More, they arc given an opportunity to make largo profits if only they operate efficiently enough. And a great campaign Is'undcr way to make sure thnt they do operate efficiently.
