Babson outlines five factors weighing railroads in 1920s
Roger W Babson, statistician, argues railroad securities have declined 20 years amid high freight costs and labor discontent. He lists five factors: absentee ownership of labor, inefficient labor rules, motor truck competition, services rendered for nothing, and railroad management shifting from engineers to merchants. He urges railroads to run as merchandising businesses focusing on customers and territories to restore value.
