_____________ t/X5zPAG E E THURSDA-Y, ýtOVEMBER 3RD, 1938 THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVILLE, ONTARIO Voice of the People h A ONE 0F CANADA'S GREAT PROBLEMS Montreal. Que., October 29, 1938. Dear Editor: Knowjniz the intercst The States- !nan takes in public questions affect- mir Canada's welfare 1 amn taking the libertv of submittingr a few ob- servations on our rajlway situation which I trust will be of interest to vour readers. While railwav traffic conditions ini the United States as a whole are showiniz some improvement over last '7 vear. there are some areas in whicb * P ross revenues are still running bc- low those of a year ago, without verv bright prospects for improve- ment before the eSd of the vear. The general improvement is being reflccted in the New York Stock Exchange averages for railway stocks whjch reccntly have reached new hizhs for the vear. and accordingz ta market theorists have thus con- f irmed the bull market trend in evid- ence in industrials for several rnonths. Thtis upturn ini general business, market levels and rail traffic is vcry gzratifving and will be of great bien- efit ta a zreat inany people. But for Caniadians interested in f inding a solution to the Dominions complex railway problein. the bullish indices are apt to be misleading., unless basic factors behind the indices are iso- lated and apvraised. It is uinfortunate, for instance. that traffic in the area served bv the Grand Trunk Western, a United States line of the Canadian National Railwavs, i running consistently at levels materially below a x'ear ago. And it is cspecially unfortunate that this area should bc so bard bit in as muich as a considerable portion of C.N.R. total traffic in normal turnes orizînates in this area. Continuation of the slurnp in busi- ness in this area means that Grand Trunk Western is not earniniz its ýooeratinL, charges this year. The saine is truc of the Central Vermont Railwav. another uine controlled in the United States by the C.N.R. De- ficits to be shown at the vcar-end by týese lines will be added to the total 'N.R. deficit: and althoughi condi- tions causinz the deficits for the Grand Trunk Western and the Ver- mont are of peculiarly United States orngin. the financial effects will be felt in Canada in the forin of ad- ditional cash aid from the Dominion zoverninent. Even if the C.N.R. should meet the U.S.A. lines' deficits from its ýown revenues. this course would in- crease the deficits to be shown bv all-Canadian lines of the C.N.R.; s0 that whether Canadian Treasury aid for the harassed C.N.R. lines in the United States goes there directly or indirectlv. the effect on the Canadian taxpaver is the saine: money which 15 raised bv taxation in thîs country is sent abroad for the support of workers on these United States rail- wavs. These inies operating below the Canadianl border could alleviate the effects of current traffic losses to a considerable extent by wage adjust- nients were it not for union rules and federal laws. Railway labor al- wavs lias been strongz and was helped bv New De.al ideas. They prevent adjustainst wages to basic economic conditions. And ini this instance they nass on the cf fects of depression and the cost of apveasement to the Can- adian taxpaver. 1 It would be foolishi to suggest that this is one of the more urgent rea- sons for findingz an early solution to the Canadian railway problein, althoueLh in principle this phase of the oproblcrn is as irnpOrtant as anv. But it is certainly a çomp)licatinig factor which should be eliminated. especiallv as Canadian railways cur- rentl;v are ordernig staff reductions and enforced holidays without pav for clerical and shop employees in order to procure hetter operating ratios at the vear end. There is a oujite valid basis for the point of view. in fact, that these Canadian' railwav emplovees who are suffering lav-offs or waze cuts aie being ask- ed to sacrifice their incomes for the benefit of United States railway workers (and of Canadian workers in the so-called running trades~) whose wazes cannot so easily be re- duced.
