RETURNS FOR AUGUST

COMMERCE COMMISSION

INTER-STATE

THE EIGHT MONTHS ENDING WITH AUGUST

AND

following we furnish detailed figures of earnings and expenses for August 1918, as compared with
August 1917, and also for the eight months ending with August in the two years, of every steam railroad in the United
States which is obliged to file monthly returns of earnings and expenses with the Inter-State Commerce Commission
at Washington. In cases where the August return has not yet been filed with the Commission,* we give the figures
for the latest previous month.
It should be understood, however, that the Inter-State Commerce Commission now requires monthly reports
#*ly from roads whose gross railway operating revenues exceed $1,000,000 per annum.
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
Baturas were required from all carriers having railway operating revenues in excess of 8100,000 per annum.
In the closing pages of this publication—page 14—we also give the Company returns where these differ in
any way from the Commerce Commission returns or embrace more facts than are contained in theriatter

RAILWAY EARNINGS

[Vol. 107

COMPANY RETURNS
All the

figures in the foregoing pages are transcripts of the monthly returns as filed with the Inter-State Com¬
Commission at Washington. Some railroad companies still issue monthly statements of their own, though
under Government control the number of these has been greatly reduced. The form of these company
returns is
often different from that prescribed by the Commerce Cmmission. In some instances the figures in the two re¬
merce

turns

correspond, but the company statements go beyond the requirements of the Commission and give fixed
charges and income from investments in addition to earnings and expenses.
It is

that each issue of the “Railway Earnings Section” shall furnish an absolutely complete
record of afl monthly returns, in whatever form issued, that may be put out by any steam railroad in the United
States. Accordingly, we bring together on this and the following pages all the company statements where
they
differ in any way from the returns to the Commission, or where they embrace more facts than are contained in
such returns. In these instances, of course, uniformity is lacking. Each company makes
up its statement ac¬
cording to its own conception of what will serve best to convey a correct idea of the course of its income in the dis¬
tinctive circumstances that may attend its operations or the character of its business. ' We in turn give the state¬
ments in the precise form furnished by the companies.
Obviously, we cannot undertake to reconcile differences or
discrepancies that may appear between the company figures and the Inter-State Commerce returns.
our

purpose

It should he

distinctly understood that where the company statements are identical with those rendered to the Com¬
Commission, and do not include any additional items, we do not undertake to repeat them here. In such cases
the reader must look for the figures among the detailed statements on preceding
pages, which include every steam road that
is obliged to make monthly returns to the Commission.
