it has now become apparent that
IIwhen the government's work of
valuing the railroads is finished, no
final valuation will have been placed
on them. Congress, in the last an-
alysis, will have to take up the va-
ribus elements of value as reported
to it, and decide what is the con-
clusion. writes Jutson C Welllver
in the Washington Times.
This is one of the most interesting
cent development concerning the ap-
praisal work
It needs, however, to be illustrated
and the item of overhead charges
provides a ready illustration.
No physical appraisal of a rail-
load as it stand today could pos-
sibly include an accurate- allowance
for the brain work of the people who
planned. engineered and pioneered it.
lt could not include allowance for
costly mistakes that were made in
early construction.
Went Allaurnn'ce tor Skill.
Yet it is hardly to be assumed
that money invested in making theSe
mistakes. or in the general direc-
tion of the project is to be wasted.
One of the most necessary things in
such enterprises is the privilege of
making mistakes: quite the most
necessary 0! all is the power to set
big brains at work planning things
that can never be represented in a
physical appraisal. I. 1
Engineering judgment and direc
tlon. for instance, must decide
whether a tunnel shall be built in
one place. or a bridge in another.
The knowledge and discretion to de-
cide that point cost money: but the
finished property shows no evidence
of it. So it is necessary to determine
some allowance that shall represent
this element. It is proposed to al-
‘ low some fixed percentage for this
item; and this percentage is calcu-
lated all the way from 2 to 10 per
cent
The railroads ..,. holding out .now
for 10 per cent. while for contingen-
cies they demand allowance of 10 to
30 per cent. The determination as
to these two items will represent a
possible difference of value for all
the railroads of the country, of poo

in England, when the government
bought. the entire telephone system
of the country. the element of con-
tingencies was cast out of the calcu-
lation entirely. The government re-
fused to pay anything on this item.
Supposing the railroads are
praised at 320.000.000.000. the dif-
ference between nothing and 30
per cent. for this one item would be
86 000 .000, 000.
, Again, there is the question of in.
terost charges during the construc-
tive period. Some of the authorities
insist on an allowance as high as 20
per cent. on this account. They urge
that a large part of thy investment
is obviously unable to earn any re
turns during the construction period.
and therefore should be compensaJ
ted after earnings became possible.
To allow a general 6 per cent incre-
m'ent for this reason would add 91,-
