OWNERSHIP
Continued from First Page.
ment ownership. i believe there can
be a form of radically reconstructed
private ownership with such close
government supervision, including gov-
ernment representation on the board,
or directors. as will give the public
an labor all the benefits of govern-
men ownership and at the same time
will preserve the benefits of private
and self-interested initiative and will
avoid the political difficulties which
perhaps are inseparable from govern-
ment ownership.
‘I believe that all the objects which I
think must be achieved in order to ob—
tain a permanent solution can be ac-
complished through the creation of a
comparatively few railroad companies
which will have capitalization equal
only to the real value of the property,
and which will have a moderate guar-
anteed return with the right to partici—
pate moderately in any additional
profits.“
To permit development. of a compre
bensive and permanent solution. Mr.
Hines renewed Mr. McAddo’s recon.
mendation for a five~year extension of
government control. and__ explained
that if this were not done. he believed
it would be best for all interests con—
cerned to relinquish government con-
trol without waiting for the expiration
of the tWenty-one manth period pro-
vided by existing law.
_Discussing the reasons for taking
more time for considering legislation.
he said: .
“A very strong feeling prevails that
this question is being pushed now by
the railroad executives because they
feel that the ‘gong' is particularly
good. and that they had better make
private — management pay while the
anti-government ownership continues
to shine. _ l donot believe a Solution
in this spirit is going to satisfy the
public."
So far as physical
opera tioniire
there is now no emergency which calls
on the government to continue control
lit—the railroads. ~ He explained . that
the methods adopted by the infilll'oad
Administration during the war now
are open to reconsideration in' the light
