COOK’S SCHEME HAS ITS EAULTS Public’s Attitude Toward the Railroads Is Undergoing Steady Change. By B. C. FORBES. NEW YORK, May 28.—A twenty-five billion dollar “holding company" to con trol the railroads of the United States, under the plan drawn up by Mr Wil liam W. Cook and outlined here yester day, is at first glance alluring. But the more the proposal is studied, the greater and rraver are the obiections that spring w mind Many of Mr. Cook's statements would seem to call for modification in ciew of recent events. Let me try to comment briefly on some of them ... The issue, he affirms, is “Socialism or Not?" I do not. think so. Is It not true that the government, through the inter state commerce commission, has at last placed the bit in the mouth of the rail roads and can force them to move in whatever direction is desired? • ♦ • “*■ Already the public clamor against the railroads has in large measure subsided. Indeed, the public are today complaining less than are the railroad managements Decision after decision has been handed down aaginst the transportation compa nies and very few in their favor. The interstate commerce commission certain ly can not be accused of showing favorit ism toward the companies. The latter have repeatedly complained that the com missioners regard themselves more as the champions of shippers than as im partial judges. So uncomfortable have numbers of roads been made that any appeal for government ownership -is as likely to come from the managers as from the general public. . Railroad regulation, in otner words, has become very effective. It is no longer' toothless. Innocuous, a mere theory. It is offering strong, insurmountable bar riers against practices which used to arouse the public's ire Therefore, the present conditions have not become im possible or intolerable from the public's point of view An era of fairer play has been opened up. • * • The $25,000,000 combination, therefore, is not urgently necessary to rescue the country from socialism. Moreover, such a plan does not appear feasible. To begin with the 3 per cent guaranteed, stock proposed would not find a market. A substantially higher rate of dividend or Interest would have to be paid. ' Even then the scheme would be so much in the nature of an experiment—an experi ment on a scale never before attempted by any nation—that Investors would in all probability prefer to hold aloof not withstanding the government guaranty. Is the claim that the plan “would not impair the efficiency of the present rail way staff ' incontrovertible? Can it be seriously argued that railway officials barred from earning for stockholders above a certain fixed percentage would produce the results attained under exist- ing corporate ownership? Would not part of the present incentive be removed" Would not initiative be dulled" Mould not numbers of our ablest railroad men to whom moneymaking is not the first consideration quit rather than be sub jected to the new form of domination" » • • The project, would be revolutionary, no matter how carried out. If the rail- i roads were to be slyly picked up when their securities were depressed, there would be increasing uncertainty in investment circles, for the owner of shares paying, say. 7 per cent, would never know the moment he might be informed that his' dividend would be cut to the 3 per cent rate--a matter of infinite importance Or. if properties were to be acquired by condemnation topsy-turvydom would reign Mr. Cook says of Socialism: “It Is the direct antithesis of the Anglo saxon idea that whatever.a man honestly i acquires becomes his own, to dispose of as he sees fit." How would the con demnation procedure square. with the clause I have put in black letters" * ♦ • Railroad management In America has been lifted from the speculative mud in which it was wont to disport. It is cleaner now. It is watched closer It has to keep within bounds prescribed by governmental bodies The public are no longer absolutely defenceless. They have driven the railroads out of politics They are gradually demanding that no new securities be issued without governmental —Federal or state —sanction. Finally, the capitalists who wield tre mendous power over our railroads at least realize that they can not snap their fingers at public sentiment. The old au tocratic. brutal attitude has been dropped Warning has been given that the people will assert themselves as masters of the situation, and that if drastic measures become necessary action will be taken The constant increase in the number of 1 citizens holding railroad stocks can have , \ but beneficial influence And surely the ' . reformed currency system should go some \ wav toward correcting the evils of con —r *" % -rSntrated capital—evils that constitute a danger' to the orderly continuance of the republic. Capital is on trial. It knows that if it does not act squarely vengeance will b» taken in one form or another For the present, however, the suggested twenty five-billion-dollar holding company and other schemes for nationalization can be held in abeyance, don’t you think?

This being an English holiday there was no session of the stock market in 1 amdon. I>uring the forenoon a sagging tendency developed and nearly all the active issues declined fractionally Lehigh Valley vv.is the weakest feature, dropping a point. Fractional losses were sustained in Steel common and Amalgamated Copper. Busi ness was on an extremely small scale. Activity developed in a number of stocks in the late trading, hut prices were irregular Brick advances occurred in some issues only to bp followed by downward movements. Lehigh Valiev and Reading each moved up 1 point, but later lost t<ip advance on realizing sales The majority of the important railroad issues continued dull Stocks closed irregularly.
