Referring to the successful fiscal year, President Samuel Kea says: War Is Ilig; Help The war and increased freight and DHMngir tariffs were helpfut in mak ing up the record-breaking earnings. "While the increase in your freight revenues, principally in the merchan dise traffic, can be attributed largely to the transportation of supplies for Europe, the advance of approximately 1 5 per cent, in certain merchandise i freight rates, referred to in the last annual report, which became effective | in the early part of 1915, was also ! helpful. So far as can be estimated, ! the advance in these freight rates in ' creased the total freight revenues 2.96 j per cent. "Passenger revenue decreased less than 1 per cent. This traffic was affected by the general business de ! prcssion in the early part of the year, but later it showed improvement. In i creases in certain passenger rates oft ! set the reduction in traffic to some i extent." President Rea takes a broad stand on the proposed congressional inquiry into the transportation problem. He says that while public regulation has ; served many useful purposes, there i has been a notable lack of a definite business policy and of co-operation between the Federal and State govern ments, all of which has been costly to the carriers and has retarded railroad expansion. No Time for Complaint "However," continues President Rea, "the time for complaint and destruct ive criticism has passed, and through this inquiry an opportunity is pre sented for formulating a constructive policy and insuring equitable treat ment for the railroads, which will be sustained by public opinion, realizing ; that the railroads are a very essential j factor in creating and continuing na j tional prosperity. Then their owners and the investing public will be en couraged to provide in the future the large sums o! private capital required to place our transportation systems in a position to meet the needs of an ex panding commerce." Other subjects discussed at length in the report were: The ruling by the Public Service Commission of Penn sylvania ordering a reduction ill an thracite freight rates, which, if sus tained by the courts, will cause a loss to the Pennsylvania Railroad Company of $1,500,000 a year: the various steps taken to increase passenger fares, and the Interstate Commerce Commission's order declining to permit the further operation of steamship lines by the railroads. For the first time announcement Is made of sale of the boats owned and operated by the Krle and Western Transporiation Company, a Pennsyl vania Railroad subsidiary. President Uea directs attention to the coming seventieth anniversary of the company, saying: "Notwithstanding many financial and business vicissitudes in that long i period, ihe company has endeavored ] to discharge its duty to the public by maintaining an adequate, safe and high standard of transportation serv ' ice: by encouraging the development ' of the territory served by its lines and connections: and by safeguarding the ' interests of the stock and bond hold ers. and the welfare of its employes, j Since its incorporat ion the company I has paid a return upon its capital ! stock in every calendar year, and has pursued the sound financial policy of J devoting many millions of dollars of its income to provide betterments and I improvements to its railroad and j equipment, instead of issuing capital j stock or bonds to procure the funds J therefor."
