Declaring that it is important for
the public to understand the facts
about railway earnings, President L.
A. Downs of the Central of Georgia
Railway in an interesting statement
gives information concering matters
of this nature. He states that owners
radwa y property are in a position
considerably less favorable than they i
occu P' e <J Prior to the World War as
current returns on invest
ments.
Mr. Downs explains . 1 - that the rail
improvements . ,
way necessary for ,
handling the increasing business of
the country are financed by borrow¬
ings, and that this means increased
interest charges. While railway earn¬
ings have increased during recent
months, the enlarged interest charges
have out off the stockholders from a
greater share in those increased
earnings.
The Central of Georgia Railway
has since 1916 invested $9,573,000 in
improvements to the road, and $7,-
614,000 for equipment. This is a to¬
tal of more than $17,000,000 for ini
proving the facilities for public ser-;
vice. Yet, in those eight years, the
N t Railway Operating Income of the
Central of Georgia has increased but
$475,000. The owners of the property
would have received more had they i
placed the money in the savings bank
at four per cent than they did receive
by using it in the public service.
Mr. Downs says that a decrease in
either the volume of traffic or the
present rate level would tend to im
pair railway credit and hence en
danger the present high standard of
service.
He declares that the investor in
railway property is showing his faith
in the future, and that this faith will
be justified bj r continued freedom
from such legislation or regulation
as will arrest the recent improve
ment in the railroad situation.
