10 RAILROADS IN BAD WAY. ASSERTS REA President of Pennsylvania Railroad Pleads For Increase of Rates By /Issociated Press Philadelphia, Dec. 3. In an address to-day before the New York Chamber of Commerce. Samuel Rea, president of the Pennsylvania Railroad, speak ing on- the railroad situation, asserted that the Eastern railroads carried less than 4 per cent, during the past year upon the money invested in them. "This serious condition is not new. but It is now acute," he said. "We have been living on hope at least since 1910, when the downward trend was clearly indicated: how much longer we can exist on that precarious asset I will not venture to say, except to suggest that It takes more than hope, ndvlce. or enthusiasm, or all combined, to pay wages and taxes, provide satisfactory service, pay divi dends. and retain a proper credit basis to obtain capital for improvements and extensions. •Increased traffic will not cure the railroad malady, for remember that up to the present the economies and efficiency of the railroads have been offset by increased costs in wages and taxes. These companies, therefore.need not merely the very moderate increase in rates for which they petitioned the Interstate Commerce Commission, but also all the revenue that can be secured by working out in practice the various other means suggested by the commission for increasing rev enue."

SUNKEN PATH WEST OF FBDNT STREET Expert Manning Explains Why Pro posed Treatment Is Neces sary For Park Warren 11. Manning, the city's land scape architect, believes that there is no river front in the world superior to the beautiful frontage of ilarrisburg. He is deeply interested in (his develop ment along practical and esthetic lines and owing to the comparatively nar row stretches at certain points has been compelled to provide different treatment in different sections. For instance, north of "Hardscrab ble" it has been found advisable to construct a sunken path near the west ern curbline so as to create what will be equivalent to a double terrace. Dropping from the level of the street three or four feet with an easy grade the first slope will be covered with matrimony vine and the edge of the vurbing with barberry hedge. The depressed walk will have an average width of nine feet and the second terrace will be carried down by a proper grade to the level of ihe con crete wall and steps. Some tilling will jhe necessary under this plan, but nut nearly so much as would have been required had the original scheme of a I park strip on the level of the street been carried out. "till'' From Station Site With the enormous quantities of material that will be available from the South Second street excavations, it should be an easy matter for the De partment of Parks to complete the rough grading during the winter, it will then be possible, it is hoped, to do the planting early in the Spring and put the whole front of the city in line shape for the river carnival and his toric pageant next summer. It has been suggested by a practical citizen that the rejected granite blocks [from the Federal building, some of which have been thrown over the river bank north of Maclay street, would make fine material for rip rapping the nhrupt projection of the bank at the pumping station. It would also save serious damage by the high water and ice during the winter at this point. The Various Suggestions "if we should treat the river em bnnkment," said a park official to day, "in the way that individual citi zens suggest from time to time, we would have a different kind of treat ment about every other square. We must regard the opinion, the technical knowledge and the large experience of the distinguished landscape architect who has made a reputation through out the country and who has done so admirably for Ilarrisburg. It is un pleasant to meet objections at every public improvement, but we must do our duty as WO see it without regard to protests —honest or otherwise." MRS.
