CATHERINES, Ont.. Feb. 2: At the same time as he apologized , for his inability to talk at length on t the railway situation while under J review by the Royal Commission,; Sir Henry W. Thornton, chairman; and president of the Canadian Na-1 tional Railways, speaking before the chamber of commerce here re-; cently answered recent criticism. "I challenge the statement that the Canadian National Railways is in any sense responsible for the position of its privately owned competitor," said Sir Henry, referring to the remarks of J. T. Hackett, K.C., member for Stanstead, Que., in Toronto a few days ago. These he characterized as comment by one not particularly familiar with the subject "As one who has spent his life in railway work. I may with safety say ! engineer in ships of the Grand! that the Canadian Pacific Is aj credit to the Dominion of Canada and is performing a distinguished! Canadian service. But I say it Is no j more insolvent than any other great Canadian company." j He remarked that the C. P. R.'s recent contribution to the National Service Loan was but one demonstration that it was not "trembling on the brink of insolvency." The Canadian National Railways has spent by far a larger propor-, tion of Its capital and added since , 1923 on Its own lines In order to serve the people of Canada efficiently he continued In a comparison of expenditures on capital account with his privately owned competitor. Painting the picture of a group of undernourished railways competing ride by side, Sir Henry told , , i his audience of the life blood thpt Having been delayed by makir. to De pumped ,nt0 tnese Unes a wa.il ai rui unci 13111 tu utiiucij to Icvid canned salmon.

Lauds Directors Sir Henry also paid a compliment to the Natlorlal System's board or directors stating they were spending all tnelr skill and knowledge on their lmportah,! work. i "This Is a time when Canada needs cooperation, support and courage and not criticism that can be construed as destructive," ht , went on. The present period dlf fered from other periods of dr ; presslon in the world's history onli : that it was purely economic rathrr han military or soclaL" he said "It would end, slowly but surely. , as they had ended. We have simp- j , iy got to assess our facts correetly and get a proper perspective of the situation." Sir Henry ended with an appeal! for the united support of all wnr.j are bearing the burdens of state and Industry at the present tlm regardless of political and social differences.
