Schaff K . j On Railway Investments itf jfki:. ': 3b . President Wilson, recently referring to our railroad IL JF l problems, said in part: "Thoy are Indispensable to a lA our whole economic life nnd railway securities aro at (im$&k? j) tho very heart of most lnvostmonts, lnrgo and small, public wj AlL ' and private, by Individuals and by institutions. jf mjfe.. i Thoro Is no other Interest so central to tho business wol- Ipl y-' faro of tho country, qb tbB. No doubt, In tho light of tho WL d&&jL. now day, with ltB new understandings, the problem of tho 83 m jBl railroads will also bo mot and dealt with In a spirit of ; vti mWm JIP1 candor and justlco." M tm 1R mMM When tho first citizen of tho land stresses tho lmpor ' l fj IEr MfaH anco ot understanding nnd dealing Justly with the rnll- T 1 ff-a"31! roads, certainly tho American plowman can venture upon if, n careful study of tho problem. O. E. Schnff, president of tho M. K. & T. tn railway company, when asked to outline tho rolatlon of tho public to rail- E" roads Investments, Bald In part: , bJ "It mny bo snld that tho railroad world 1b oncumborcd with n lot of , h, phantoms which oxUt only In tho popular fancy. For Instance, becnuso gXf there havo been a fow so-called 'railroad magnates' whoso names have figured M prominently in finance many people havo como to believe that tho rallroada It of tho country aro largely owned by a fow rich men. Ab a matter of fact mvL nothing could be farther from tho truth. Out of tho colossal sum of twenty I billion dollars of American railroad securities, less than five per cent Is now, Mvi or ever has been, In tho hnnds of theso men who have figured prominently In m$ tho newspaper hcadllnesv-whllo tho other 95 per cent Is in tho hands of over jfW two million investors, largo and small, who in many instances have put the IS modest savings of a lifetime Into these Eecurltles In order that they might Iny nwny a competency for old age. When, thorofore, tho value of those II securities is depressed or perchance destroyed, tho hardship is a hundred &) fold greater upon thousands of overy-day citizens, than upon tho handful of &' millionaires, good or bad, who havo figured prominently in railroad clrclos. J Hundreds of millions of dollars of tho assots of our great llfo and firo Insurance companies, savings banks, trust companies, educational and fiduciary ' Institutions aro Invested In railroad bonds and tho moment, therefore that ' the soundness of these bonds Is called into question tho financial solidity of , these myriad Institutions directly affecting tho welfaro of millions of policy- holders and bank depositors Is gravely menaced. During tho last sovoral jXfi , years, Miiany millions of dollars representing depreciated valueB, havo beon mp charged off tho books of concerns like those enumerated abovo. American aft- rallroads havo becomo a vital part of tho very woof and fabric of tho nation. Hf ' Their continued efilnlcncy Is absolutely essential to tho smallest community )fvi In the land. mam In blindly striking nt tho railroads our blows fall not moroly upon thou maK sands who havo committed no wrong, but, in the last analysis, upon ourselves. BUr Wo should remember how interdependent we have como to bo in this mighty Sffi republic of ours that each is In truth becomo moro and moro his brother's kcoper, and that wo need to act and think circumspectly, lest In our mistaken HP zcnl wo destroy those who, liko ourselves, need whatever of this world's WmW goods tho toll and sweat of years has bequeathed to them."
