Says Profit Sharing Would Make Efficiency. , Washington, Feb. 8.—Railroad la bor interests today proposed govern ment ownership and private operation by one large corporation, co-operative ly organized and sharing profits with employes," as thetr solution of~Che rail road problem. Testifying before the senate inter state commerce committee on behalf of the four leading trainmen’s brother hoods and other employes’ organiza- tlons, Glenn R Plumb;—of—Chicago,' recommended that the government ac quire all railroad property at a price fairly representing the physical valua tion. and entust the operation to x corporation to be directed jointly by employes, officers and the government Earnings would - bF divided equally among employes and' the government and rates Would automatically be re duced when profits amounted to more than a fixed rate. ■ . . . ivrgWt w tied. wouleFpro- vide cheaper financing, give stability of income to security owmers, promote efficiency of operation through sharing profits, remove railroad operation from jiaxtkaJl-Ufll itir^xom pose tween federal and state authorities, keep rates at a minimum, eliminate complications in rate scheduels and provide a means o( making communi ties benefiting by extensions pay for them. The corporation would be sub ject to regulation by the interstate commerce commission, which would • * retain Its present regulating powers. .The brotherhoods objected to the railway executives’ proposal for estab- elected in this manner: one-third to be elected by the classified employes below the grade of appointed officials;, one-third by the apointed officials and employes; the final third being ap pointed by'the president of the United States. ., .. k 4 With one-half of the profits going to the government and the other half to the corporation to be distributed among employes, Mr. Plumb said, the men would be actuated by a desire to promote efficiency and economy as a means of increasing profit. . “Such a scheme,” he said, “would render to the public all of the bene fits of unified operation. It would eliminate al Ithe costs nf cnmn«>tItioTi r mithout losing any of the benefits of competition. “This would remove the operatior. of the railorads from politics. ‘ Gov ernment officials 'could not possibly nave anything, to say about the er pioyment of men or officials of th. roads. They, would have nothing t say as to construction or extension of new lines. “The government would have no iurn which was more adequate for die maintenance and operation of the service and the public would not need :o be protected ‘against high rates and divrsion of ports to private lishing a secretary of transportation. saying this would constitute “regu lating the people in tlm interests of capital.” They also protested aghinst the railroad administration’s order forbidding railway employes taking part in politics., arguing that the so lution of the railway problem is a politicafyissue and that employes are entitled to participate. Mr. Plumb suggested organization of “an operating corporation where op erating ability constituted its sole cap ital.” “4 certain agreed Percentage of the net results of operation should belong to this corpration,” he, saijj, .“The stock of the cor|>oratfon should be held in trust for the benefit of ftie employes. The corporation would lie administered by a board of directors, who, we suggest tentatively, should be “You could provide that whenever the actual ampunt of net revenue paid to the government exceeded 5 • per cent of the gross operating revenue, the interstate Commerce Commission should thereupon adjust the scale of rates in sudh manner as to absorb t*' 5 pec cent, thereby producing an equiv alent of a 5 per cent reduction in rates.” BIG BOND ISSUE FOR GREENWOOD Bill to 1m> Introduced for #600,000 Issue for Building Good Ropds.
