S T A T U S OF R A I L R O A D S U N D E R F E D E R A L CONTROL.

The Federal Government took over the management of
the railroads of the United States as of Jan. 1 1918. Tn
view of the existing blockades, duo to the severity of the
winter and extremely heavy war and other traffic, the
authorities at Washington came rather suddenly to tho con­
clusion that only by such unification could tho transporta­
tion business of the country be handled effectively under
war conditions.

The recommendation o f Director-General Hines that Federal control be
continued fpr fivo years was pblished in the "Chronicle,” V 107 d °337‘

Tho “ Railway Review” of Chicago on March 29 1919 presented the seven

RAILWAY AND INDUSTRIAL SECTION.

The “ Railway Age” on April 11 1919 said: Freight cars have come to
be about a drug on the market since the signing of the armistice. In ad­
dition to the large number of Idle cars which havo been in service, several
thousand of the new standard cars built on the orders placed by the Rail­
road Administration last year have been completed by the builders but
cannot bo stenciled because the railroad companies which are expected to
take them and pay for them havo not yet accepted them. Over 26,000
o f the 1 0 0 ,0 0 0 standard cars ordered had been accepted by the roads to
March 31, but this docs not account for at least 10,000 more that have been
built and are being hold in storage until it can be ascertained whether the
Railroad Administration can force the companies to take them at high
prices. Tho Administration takes the position that it can, because they
wore ordered under war conditions and allocated to the various roads.
The standard locomotives, on the other hand, are being accepted as fast
as they can bo turned out.”
Financial Operations in 1918.— The financial operations of the U. S. RR

Mr. Hines stated that the railroad companies had a great many maturities
to meet this year, but although they would want assistance for that pur­
pose, his policy would bo to let them meet their own maturities as well as
to finance largely the additions and betterments for 1919. He also empha­
sized the tact that by far the greater part of the money heretofore provided
for them by the Government will eventually be returned to the Federal
treasury.
Temporary Financing.— Tho failure of Congress to pass the bill providing
an additional $75.0,000,000 for the Revolving Fund necessitated various
extraordinary measures to enable the U. 8 . RR. Administration to meet its
current commitments to the railroad and equipment companies and others
and also to assist the railroads in meeting their needs for new capital re­
funding, etc. The amountsneeded to June 30 1919were estimated by the
Director-General at$701,b 9 /,000 (V. 108, p. 1028), as
follows:y

It was made clear that to a large extent it will be necessary for the rail­
road corporations to meet their requirements by obtaining loans from
bankers, tho resources o f the War Finance Corporation to be reserved to
protect special cases.
On March 18 1919 tho Administration borrowed at 6 % $50,000,000 (due
on or before July 18 1919) from the War Finance Corp. The War Depart­
ment on March 21 advanced the Administration $100 000 000 on ac­
count of tile transportation of troops, and the Navy Department paid it
$10,000,000 that would otherwise have been considerably delayed (V 108’
p. 1128). Tim Warfin a n c e C o lo ra tio n also increased largely its loans to
tho railroads (Y. 108, p. 1228, 1352, 2440), and to strengthen its resources
for that and other purposes placed in April 1019 an issue of $200,000,000 5%
bonds IV. 108, p. 1342). Compare War Flnanco Corporation below.
The U. S. RR. Administration also issued its own 5 % certificates of in­
debtedness to the individual roads for amounts due or to be due to them on
compensation (in full payment when compensation contracts had been
signed,o therwlse only 90% ), and also on other accounts and these certificate
were used as collateral by the roads in order to borrow from their own banks
or from tho War Finance Corporation or the Administration itself
V 108s
I). 1352.
It is supposed that an extra session of Congress will be called and tho
needed funds appropriated to relievo embarrassment of Administration.
War Finance Corporation.— The War Finance Corporation was organized
on M ay 17 1918 by the Secretary of the Treasury and others, with an




5

authorized capital stock of $500,000,000 (and the right to issue bonds to
an amount not exceeding $ 2 ,0 0 0 ,0 0 0 ,0 0 0 bonds) to provide credits "for
industries and enterprises in the United States necessary or contributory
to the prosecution of the war.” The Act creating the Corporation was
given in Y. 106. p. 1183, 2065— also see V. 106, p. 651 to 656, 977, 978, 979.
Up to Oct. 31 1918 (V. 107, p. 2137), loans of $67,716,342 had been
advanced by the War Finance Corporation chiefly or wholly to public
utility, lumber, coal and miscellaneous corporations: $29,863,648 had been
repaid, leaving $37,852,594 outstanding. The Brooklyn Rapid Transit Co.
came in for substantial assistance (V. 106, p. 2648, 2755— V. 107, p. 180.
290, 703).
In January 1919 the corporation began making considerable advances to
railroads (V. 108, p. 116), and on March 4 these aggregated $71,505,000,
and on March 28 about $135,000,000 on “ adequate collateral;' (V. 108, p.
1020, 1343, 1352), while in April 1919 an issue of $200,000,000 bonds was
sold, partly as above stated, to facilitate in railroad financing.
Capital Issues Committee.— This committee's activities came to an end
Dec. 31 1918. V. 108, p. 2421, 2228.
Consolidation of Certain Railroad Officers. &c.— On April 15 tho DirectorGeneral ordered (1) tho discontinuance of separato city freight or passenger
offices where the public may bo adequately served at the depot; (2 ) the
consolidation or grouping of all city ticket offices in one union office, &c.—
V. 106. p.1535.
Joint Use of Pennsylvania Station in N. Y. City.— On Sept. 15 1918 under
order of the U. S. RR. Administration, the Baltimore & Ohio and the
Lehigh Valley RR. began using the Hudson River tubes and passenger
station in New York City of the Pennsylvania R R . Co.
■
Restoring Railroad Passenger Service to Normal. See V. 107, p. 2341, 770;
Pooling of Equipment—Per Diem Charges Suspended.— On Juno 17 the
Railroad Administration abolished the per diem plan of charging for the use
of cars between individual lines. The ruling makes all equipment common
property so far as its use is concerned. This chango affects tho hire of
equipment account which in the case of many roads has often appeared
in connection with the earnings as reported from time to time, either
as a large credit or a largo debit item according as the road in ques­
tion was amply supplied with rolling stock or was dependent to any con­
siderable extent on connecting lines for tho cars used hy its shippers.
Railroad Advertising and Statistics Bureau.— In April 1918 the Railroad
Administration curtailed railroad advertising and on May 2 they prohibited
the roads from including in their operating expeases contributions toward
the maintenance of the Bureau of Railway News and Statistics.— V.
106, p. 1423, 1971.
Railroads Accounting Purchasing, &c.— See V. 106, p. 56, 252, 883, 1305,
2722, 2721, 1961, 1756, 1535, 984, 885, 157; V. 107, p. 1625. Report of
Director-General as to accounting, V. 108, p. 445, and as to railroad
saving, &c., in V. 107, p. 2065, 1030.
Relations with Inter-State Commerce Commission.— See V. 106, p. 562,
1091, 1194, 1861, 2412, 2520; V. 107, p. 1625; V. 108, p. 443.
Universal Mileage Scrip.— This scrip, good on all roads at 3 cents a mile,
was placed on sale on or about Aug. 1. V. 107, p. 253.
Monthly Statements of Earnings.— Prior to the taking over of the roads
by the Government, or, to be strictly accurate, prior to the call for the
March 1918 reports, monthly returns were required from all carriers having
railway operating revenues in oxcess of $100,000 per annum. The Inter­
State Commerce Commission now requires monthly reports onlv from
roads whoso gross railway operating revenues exceed $ 1 ,0 0 0 ,0 0 0 per
annum.
American Railroad Association.— This association, of which all roads
under Federal control are members, co-operates with the Director-General
"for the advancement of railroad practice.” — V. 108, p. 443.
Government Operation of Erie Canal, Steamships and E lectric Lines.
Eric Canal, Etc.— Mr. McAdoo in April 17 announced that he had
decided to construct and put into operation a lino of barges to be operated
by the Government on tho Erie Barge Canal for tho purposo of relieving
railroad congestion. This canal was completed and formally opened for
through traffic between the Hudson River and tho Great Lakes on May
15. V. 106, p. 1641, 1642, 2085. 2620. G. A. Tomlinson was in April
1918 made General Manager of tho Erie Canal, and on July 15 his jurisdic­
tion was extended to New York and New Jersey canals generally. V.
107. p. 253.
On July 25 1918 the Capo Cod Canal passed under Govt, control.
V. 107, p. 470.
Control of Steamship Lines.— In accordance with a proclamation issued
by President Wilson under dato o f April 11 control of four of tho principal
Atlantic coastwise steamship lines was assumed by the Railroad Administra­
tion on April 13 1918, but theso were returned to their owners Dec. 1 1918,
leaving under Government control the railway owned lines, viz.: the Ocean,
Old Dominion, Southern Pacific, Baltimore Steam Packet and Chesapeake
SS. Co.
Unification of Express Business.— Seo American Railway Express Co.
under Industrial Companies.
On N ov. 18 1918 this merger company
was placed under control of the Director-General of Railroads. V. 107,
p. 1978. Increased express rates took effect Jan. 1 1919. V. 107. p.
2065, 794.
Unification of Telephones, Telegraph and Cables Companies under Federal
Control.— Sec V. 107, p. 1952, 1972, 1973, 1975, 2067, 2341; V. 108, p. 129.

A DVANCES—STA NDA RI) RETURN.

From month to month during 19IS official statements were
published showing heavy “advances” by the United States
Railroad Administration to the rairoads in its central. For
tho 13 months ending Jan. 31 1919 the total advances so
stated aggregated over $787*,000,000, of which only .$98,­
000,000 had been repaid (V. 108, p. 540). In April 1919 it
was made known, as had long been surmised, that tho great
bulk of this largo total was merely tho compensation ad­
vanced to the various roads pending final execution of tho
Fcdoral contracts. The outstanding loans held by the RR.
Administration, it was stated, aggregated on March 31 only
$169,735,000 with a further $163,950,402 due it on account
of now equipment (V. 108, p. 1475).
It had been intended to republish in this Section the table o f advances
to Jan. 31 1919 as given in the "Chronicle" of Feb. 8 , page 640, but in view
of the statement by the Director-General on April 5 that the advances
included in fact so small a proportion of actual loans this plan was abandoned

At a hearing before the Appropriation Committee of the
House of Representatives in Feb. 1919 Director-General
Hines stated (V. 108, p. 840):

As of Jan. 26 1919, tho number of standard contracts signed was 34 and
44 more wero about ready to sign, while 23 others had been drawn and were
in process of consideration. As far as I know, practically every company
whose road has been taken over is relying on the making of the contract
and the Railroad Administration is assuming the standard return will be
paid to all of them. The compensation provided for by the 34 signed con­
tracts amounts to about $360,000,000. No contracts have been executed
which include any allowance for compensation in addition to the standard
return, except in the rase of the Missouri & North Arkansas, which had
been allowed $161,230 in addition to its standard return of $13,140. No
contract has been executed for less than the standard return.

------- -------In the aggregate the net operating income for 1918 was $689,800,000 as
against standard returns totaling $903,300,000 showing a deficit to the
Government of $213,500,000 made up o f deficits o f $149,800,000 and $72,­
200,000, respectively, on the Eastern and Western roads, respectively,
less again on the Southern roads o f $8,500,000.
.

Inasmuch as it appears, therefore, that the standard return
(which, as explained on a preceding page, is the average
annual railway operating income for the three years ended
June 30 1917, as determined by the Inter-State Commerce
Commission) is likely to bo adopted without modification
in a great majority of eases as tho compensation of tho indi­
vidual roads, tho following compilation made by tho Bureau
of Railway Economics from the roports of the I.-S . C . Com­
mission is pertinent and worth reprinting here:

Earnings— Standard Rental.— “ It is estimated that the standard rental to
bo bald by tho Government during Federal control will be between $9,500.­
0 0 0 and 310,000,000, and that tho fixed charges upon tho reorganized sys­
tem will bo only between $5,000,000 and $6,000,000. It thus appears that
the standard rental will bo fully adequate to pay all fixed charges, dividends
upon the new prof, stock, and to provide a surplus for said trust funds. The
annual gross operating revenue of the system exceeds $60,000,000.”

It was originally intended that tho Eastern Division from Moncton,
N . B., via Quebec to Winnipeg, about 1,804 miles, should bo included as
part of tho Grand Trunk Pacific R y., and operated by it under lease from
the Canadian Government Railways, but owing to the Government's de­
parture from original specifications ( 1 % grades and wooden structures
Instead of 4-10% grades and steel bridges) the Grand Trunk Pacific would
not assumo the lease. Since Nov. 1918 said division has been operated
with other Government-owned lines by tho directors o f the Canadian
Northern linos. V. 100, p. 1348, 1592; V. 105, p. 1415; V. 107, p. 2097.
