Illinois Central System Tells About
Shortage of Transportation
We are now in one of those periods when the business of the country, including
agriculture, suffers severe losses by reason of the shortage of railway transportation
tha inability of the railroads to move promptly all of the traffic awaiting shipment.
The Illinois Central System is leaving nothing undone in its efforts to meet the
situation. In our October statement we showed that we have this year added to our
rolling equipment new cars and locomotives costing a total of more than $14,000,000.
These purchases included sixty-five locomotives. Since that statement was published
we have purchased, in. addition, seventy-five large freight locomotives, making a
total of 140 locomotives purchased this year. However, we are handling the largest
traffic in the history of this system, and our patrons doubtless will continue to be
inconvenienced by the general shortage of transportation facilities.
The miners' strike, which continued for nearly five months, and the railway
shopmen's strike have naturally had an effect upon the present shortage of trans
portation, but the main cause goes far deeper than those strikes.
What is commonly called the "car shortage" is in reality a shortage of all kinds
of railway facilities, including locomotives, freight cars, passing tracks, terminal
fncilities, etc. For a number of years the rate at which the railroads have been
able to increase their facilitie has gradually fallen off, while the ton mileage hauled,
which represents the public demand for transportation, has been gaining steadily.
In the seven years ended with 1907 the number of locomotives increased 2,500
u year, and the number of freight cars 90,000 a year. In the next seven years the
number of locomotives increased only 1,500 a year, and the number of freight earn
only 50,000 a year. In the seven years ended with 1921 the number of locomotives
increased only 275 a year, and the number of freight cars only fi.000 a year. The
increase in the number of locomotives in the seven years ended with 1921 was only
one-ninth as great as in the seven years ended with 1907, while the increase in the
lumber of freight cars was only one-fifteenth as great. The decline in the amount
ml rapacity of the equipment provided has been accompanied by a corresponding
lecline in other facilities. This condition cannot continue without causing fre.
uiently recurring losses of a serious nature to the country.
Muring periods of business depression, when there is a surplus of transpnrU
oii, the railroads should be most active in enlarging and extending their facilities
At future needs, but that ha not been possible in the past because business depres
inn have been accompanied by widespread demand for reduced rates. Such
imitations: discourage railway management when questions of recommending eten
i and costly Improvement are hing considered and drive lnestors away from
r .ilway securities. When the confidence of Investors in railway securities I fully re
tiT-d. Urge expenditure for addition and betterment tan be made, and the rail
Hd will thn b able to supply all neceary transportation, Thi U the "railway
1'ieation" In a nutthelt.
What the country need badly are many eadr among busiiu.M men, farmer
and worker with Uiu to see that business, including agriculture, must hate ample
railway seniee, and with courage t tell the truth about tht tranpitation situation,
I'pcn the attitude of the publie toward the railroad ill depend whether mrh rri-e
the present one are to be avoided In the future.

What the Store Has Scheduled for November
November is the pivotal month of the northern half of llic year. Jt shoulders
off the carefree Autumn, helps crystali'.e the coming mode mid uhIicis in the ad

this November bids Autumn and her vagaries au revoir and revels in the power
which is inherent by reason of our overflowing shelves, burdened with note,
worthy style creations and holiday suggestions.
