' Sir Edward Beatty, it ought to be said immediately, had no responsibility for this nonsense. While he urged unification, and ably, he never associated himself with the absurd figures that less-well-informed people were throwing about so dogmatically in speeches and pamphlets. Nor did he join in attacks on the administration of the Canadian National. The particular value of President Hungerf ord's statement is that it demonstrates unchallengeable first, that the Canadian National cannot be dealt with within the narrow confines of a balance sheet; and, second, that, even in the judgment of a balance sheet, it has been anything but a failure. The clear fact is that interest on the national investment in the Canadian National is and must be in resulting public service just as the interest on investments in many other public works aids to navigation, harbors, po?t of- iices, etc. is and must be in public service. In other! w.oras, in a land such as Canada, is a basic and essential government function its cost a part of the cost of government; of the national existence. But President Hungerford was able to show that the Canadian National, while meeting a basic national need, has at the same time a great earning capacity under normal traffic conditions. Thus: 1 For the 15-year period, 1923-37 inclusive, its onor- ating revenues exceeded it operating expenses by $361,346,000, or an average of $24,000,000 a year.! 2?nVoen 5? he years of dePressed earnings, 1932 to! i.voi, uiu system earned $yi,uuu,uU0 in excess- of its operating expenses, an average of $11,000,000 annually. 3 In the five most prosperous years, 1925-29 the . '. property earned $225,000,000 over its operating expenses, an average of $45,000,000 per annum. The Canadian National has achieved these results while operating as a pioneering railway, as a colonization railway, making possible the opening up of rich new tracts and the development and use of rich resources in this country, the while furnishing transportation to long-settled communities, often, and inescapably, at a loss Unification may remain a debatable point; it will be no longer possible to argue for unification on the basis of assertions shown to be foolish if not worse. f k- i i ...... . . . ing the bread being taken from their mouths with the dread of a The situation Is urgent.
