Railroad Plan to Get Rates Down
Statement by Thomas De Witt Cuyler, chairman of the Association of Railway Executives, after a Chicago meeting on October 14, 1921. Railroads aim to cut rates by reducing wages for train service workers and other staff, with a view to passing savings to the public through lower freight and passenger charges. The plan cites heavy labor costs, weak 1920-21 results, and a desire to restart industrial activity while noting public and agricultural burdens.
