Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Operating Revenues and Expenses of Large Steam Roads: By Months July, 1914 to December, 1919
Since 1914 monthly summaries of revenues and expenses of large steam roads have not been issued in printed form by the Commission. A limited number of copies of such summaries, however, have by a duplicating process been prepared primarily for the use of the press. Few complete files Of these statements exist. To make the data generally available, the monthly figures from July, 1914, to December, 1919, are reproduced in printed form in the following pages. In this series Of monthly summaries the figures for each month have appeared twice - once for the current year, and again, after an annual interval, in comparison with the figures for the corresponding month of the year then current. In the meantime, various corrections or changes affect ing the returns of some of the carriers as originally submitted might have been made, so that the later figures would disagree somewhat with the earlier ones for the same month. In the compilation now presented, the later figures are included in each case. It may be noted that in the following statements for the several months of the calendar years 1917, 1918, and 1919, the last item, being the not of railway operating income, equipment rents, and joint facility rent, was inserted in the monthly report as the figure corresponding to the so-called Standard return under the provisions Of the Federal control act.
