To attract Investors, Mr, Thorn sug
gested that Mie federal regulation
should roplnco the prosent system of
authority dlvldod bctweon the .states
and tho central govornmont. He cited
examples of Injustice and hampering
of railroad financing caused by state
control of issues by Interstate rnU
roads. Unerring to tho need of additional
rallrottd facilities Mr. Thorn said:
"It has beon found that tho wealth
of tho country lias been increasing
at the rnto of 8 or 9 per cent a year
and the samo ratio of incroase has
hold good as to the demand for trans
portation. As tho forces which have
affected the growth and development
of tho past apparently still continue
In full oporatlon and may bo expected
to contlnuo for tho next ton or fifteen
years, at least the investment In rall
road facilities to moot tho largo re
quirements of the futuro must conse
quently grow at a corresponding rate
of Incroase." The owtlmato of $1,250,
000,0000 for additional transportation
facilities includes nothing for exten
sions into now torrltory, ho added.
"Where is this monoy or any sum
approximating It to como from?"
asked Mr. Thorn. "This problem. Is
ono of vital Interest to tho public be
cause on it? successful solution de
pends tho commercial facllitloa of the
country. Would it do to confront tho
Investor when asking for this great
investment with a situation where the
rovonuos of tho railroads are not sub
Joci to tho control ot the Investors,
1tut are fixed and limited not only by
governmental authority, but tby many
unco-ordlnate state authorities In no
