PLATFORM IS PASSED AFTER HARD BATTLE ( Continued From Page 3.) federal control as a war measure without other idea than the swift transport of troops, munitions and supplies. When human life and national hopes were at stake profits ^ould noj be considered and were not. Federal operation. however, was marked by an intelligence and efficiency that minimuized loss and resulted in many and marked reforms. The equipment taken over was not only grossly inadequate, but shame " r? luily outworn, unmcauon practicc^ overcame these initial handicaps and provided additions, betterments and improvements. Economics enabled operation without the rate raises that private control would have found necessary and lab'|~ was treated with on iiiatine that secured the en thosiastic cooperation that victory demanded. The_ fundamental purpose of federal control was achieved fully and splendidly, and at far less cost to the taxpayer than would have the case under private operation. Investments in railroad properties were not only saved by government manage-; ment returning these ? properties' vastly improved in every physical and j executive detail. A great> task was i-i- j:?i i "The president's recommendation; of return to private ownership gave,' the Republican majority a full yearj in which to enact the necessary leg-j islation. The house took six months. ( to formulate its ideas and another! six months was consumed by the Re- j publican senate in equally vague de-.' bate. As a consequence the EschCummings bill went to the president in the Closing hours of congress, and .' he was forced to a choice between! the chaos of a veto and acquiescence-1 * i i in Jhe measure suomiuea, nowcva, grave may have been his objections' to it. 'There should be a fair and complete test of the law until careful and 1 mature action by congress may cure! its defects and insure a thoroughly' -effective transportation system un-1 <ier private ownership without gov-1 eminent subsidy at the expense of : the taxpayers of ,the country. !
