A company of Japanese engineers has
arrived in this country on a tour for the
purpose of studying American and Eu
ropean railwajsystems. . When it comes
to difficult engineering feats American l
railway construction will compare with '
any in the world. Of the numerous
complaints entered against the railroads
of this country , few relate to the me- '
chanical and engineering aspects of rail- *
wav work.

The Interstate Commerce commission j
report reads a scathing denunciation of j
ticket brokerage and ticket brokers. It
calls the business an illegitimate traffic
f
and a positive scandal , and demands legislation -
islation to put an end to its abuses. It j
fails , hovever , to allude to the notorious :
fact that the ticket brokers have been j
encouraged and held up by the railroads t
and even at times provided with special
low rate tickets for the very purpose of
evading restrictions imposed by the interstate -
terstate law. The brokers could not possibly - e
exist sanction of the
sibly without the j
railroad companies. If the companies
really want ticket brokerage abolished
have it within their
they entirely power j
to accomplish their purpose. Let them a
provide patrons the same accommodations -
tions for the same money that the brokers - j
ers do and the latter will no longer have
an excuse for existence. It looks as if
the railroads are raising a cry against
the brokers simply to divert attention s
from some of their own misdoings Bee. 1
