Show HcsriltM fee built: When the talk turns from politics to railroads, and the traveler with the cocksure air break? . in with, "There's an awful lot of 'water' in " the railroads," here are some hard-pan facts to give him: American railroads have cost $80,900 a mile roadbed, structures, stations, yards, terminals, termin-als, freight and passenger trains everything from the great city terminals to the last spike. A good concrete-and-asphalt highway costs $36,000 a mile just a bare road, not counting count-ing the cost of culverts, bridges, etc. Our railroads couldn't be duplicated to' , day for $150,000 a mile. They are capitalized for only $71,000 a mile much less than their actual value. Seventy-one thousand dollars today will buy one locomotive. English railways are capitalized at $274,000 a mile; the French at $ 1 55,000; German $ 132,000; even in Canada (still in pioneer development) they are capitalized at $67,000 a mile. The average for all foreign countries is $100,000. Low capitalization and high operating efficiency effici-ency have enabled American Railroads to pay the highest wages while charging the lowest i. rates.
