down to the state legislatures and

sneaker added that the Interstate

that for thn pt-rlod of nine months

Katfi Lower Ifrre.
Mr. Dillon quoted atatlallta to ahow
lhat passenger rates are much lower
In this country thnn In Kurope and
service better. Ho deprecated the
statements of politicians who nbue
the railroad for political etpedlency,
when the facts of the ca would
make a different showing1.
In discussing the prnpofial of Sena
tor-elect H. B. Howell to take over
enough, railroads to make one trans
continental line to force down freight
end passenger rates by competition,
Mr. Dillon said privately owned lines
should show profits In the face of
such opposition.
"The only thing private railways
Jiave to fear from such a denionatra
tlon," said Dillon, "is that the rov
ernment railway would fix ratca and
Incur operating expenses with a
reckless disreuard for the losses that
would result ami that would have to
be paid by the taxpayers."
Canadian Knad rays.
As sn example, the Canadian gov
rnment's experience In government
competition with private lines was
given by Jlr. Dillon. Tho Canadian
T'aclflc railroad, charging; the same
rates as government railways, has
been able to pay dividends continu
ously while government roads have
added to the public debt more than
1600.000,000 Blnoo 1914, he said.
"Anyone sincerely concerned In tin
rroviog; the transportation facilities
of this country should find no dlffl
culty tn discovering that the present
situation is the result of 13 to 15
j cars regulation by federal and state
governments," he said. ''These regu
lations nnd laws and agreements with
labor have cut down Income while In
creasing the outgo and have served
to discourage investors to the point
that roads most In need of It have
found It almost Impossible to obtain
new capital for development."
