Cent. Less Than One Year
Ago
WASHINGTON. Sept. h.—An ad-
!vance fomcast made public last night
- lahows that in Juiyafor the first time
since September. 1918, the railroads
earned their Government rental. For
all roads under‘ Government control
the net operating income was close to
$76,000,000. The wage increase of :45.-
900,000 annually given to the striking.
shopmen a few days ago is not re-
flected in these figures, which would
thereby be reduced about 84,000,000.
Net operating income for July for
the last six year: has been as follows:
1919 . . 375.600.000 l 1916. . 590.500.1300
