W, Beat- ty, made to the shareholdera at the annual meet- ing are matters taf first rate in- terest, not only to the fast growing number of Cana- dian citizens..who are part owners in the great rail - 11. W. Bratty, K.D. road, but to all 'nterested in Canadian progress and development. By reason of the way 'n which the company's operations touch all phases of Canadian life and enterprise there can be no pro- nounced depression or prosperity in any part of the country without its being reflected in the earnings of the Canadian Pacific. There is a barometer of the country's foreign trade also in the results of the opera- tions of the company's steamships upon the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Thus there was considerable rea- son for gratification in the presi- dent's statement trade at the annual meeting on May 7th, that the opera- tions of the company had been con- ducted throughout 1923 in a satis- factory manner and with satisfactory results. Mr. Beatty pointed out that gross earnings for the year, which had totalled $195,837,089, were greater by $9,162,000 than those of 14)23. Working expenses, however, increased by $7,934,000 to 8158,358,- 079. This large increase in operat- ing costs was due to large expendi- tures made upon the property in order that it might be kept to the highest possible physical standard and capable of rendering the best possible service to the community. As a result the property was never in so excellent a condition as it now is. Net earnings for the year were $77,.17i1,010. an increase of $1,177,000. The total tonnage moved by the company during the year amounted Lo 30,8F'2;04, an increase over that of the previous year of 3,108,408, • lent o f rain • v' moven .t ler •C she g Rut o lumber, manufactured articles and genera] merchandise, the largest est increase being in grain and grain products. Mr. Beatty pointed out that this satisfactory condition had extended well into the present year and that due to favorable operating conditions and heavy traffic net earnings for the first quarter of 1924 bad increased over those of the same period last year by $1,253,814. Referring to the Government sys- tem of railroads, Mr. Beatty said that the difference between it and the Canadian Pacific was largely in name only in the accident of t nl• and personnel of shareholders. The securities of both systems were own- ed by private investors throughout the world and there was a signifi- cant steady increase in both Cana- dian and British holdings of Cana- dian Pacific common stock. Two phases of the general railway situa- tion called for criticism. Under a statute passed in 1919 the Govern- ment-owned lines may construct branches without approval as to location and other details by the Railway Commission. Thus they may Parallel or duplicate existing g lines of any other company once the BliniSter approves and parliament ,authorizes the expenditure. Mr. Beatty stated that in his opinion it was equally in the interests of the Canadian people and of all Cana- dian railroads that the companies should be in the same position 1n this respect. The other phase Was the result of the Crow's Nest Pass agreement of 1897. It had estab- lished special statuary freight rate; under conditions of operating costs which no longer en rates which . ist and differ- cressG would not be 1 permitted andel the general e ral Railwa Yct because of their unfairness in relation to commodity rates on other articles and to the rates effective in other parts of Canada. The greatest advantage to shippers as a whole would be secured if all Yates were made subject to review and change as conditions warrant by the tribunal constituted for that purpose,' In referring to the outlook for the future, Mr. Beatty said that while there was a noticeable lull in domestic and export shipments due in part to unsettlement in industrial districts, general business during the first quarter of the year had been satisfactory, Tho crop acreage would probably be about the sante at last year and, generally speak. ing, soil conditions were excellent. "If the total yield approaches that of 1923," said Me. Beatty, "there will undoubtedly be a very extensive autumn business and a vastly ani proved psychological and financial, situation throughout the whole court, ltry. 'Mete 18 no real ground for) pessimism in respect of the future.' of either the company or the coup try, though an extraordinary and. too rapid advance is neither to be +xpeoted sod dexired." ectrical Wiring See us about your Electrical.
