Prominent Passengers on Empress

The tide of steamship traffic is turning westward again, and the St. Law-
enumbers immigrants
rence route is ..ill the favoured one. Beside large of gr
and returning Canadians, a great many European tourists are now turning
toward Canada an d i •se form no small percentage of steamship paasengerlists.
Perhaps the most distinguished list this season, was carried by the Canadian
Pacific S.S. Empress of France on her last westward voyage. Among those
on board was Lord Beaverbrook, who with several members of his family will
spend some time fn this country. He was also accompanied by T. Marson
Till, O.B.E., his secretary. Other prominent British passengers were Right
Hun. Sir Evelyn Cecil, 0.13.E.,P.C., M.P., and Col. Vaughan Morgan
O.B,E.,M.P., of London. E. W. Bok, the famous Philadelphia publisher of
Peace Prize fame also made the voyage.
Two par.:ere:ere in whom much interest centered were Prince and
Princess Serge Obodensky whose recent marriage in Paris was one of the big
social events of the year. The Princess was formerly Miss Astor. The Hon.
Charles A. Dunning, premier of Saskatchewan, was also on the France.
Other prominent passengers included Mr. R. Bosch, the inventor of the
Bosch Magneto, and Airs. W. H. Taft, who was met at the dock by her
husband, W. H. Tuft of the U.S. Supreme Court and ex -President of the
United States.
E. W. Lleatty, President of the Canadian. Pacific Railway, returned on
the Empress of France from a short visit to the Company's agencies in
England and Scandinavia. He was much impressed by the great possibilities
of a furtherunce of trade between these countries end Canada.
Asked whether he had seen the Canadian papers while abroad, and had
noted the storm of comment and protest that had followed upon the putting
into effect of the Crow's Nest Pass rates, Mr, Beatty replied that he had eeen
a good deal of this, and it was nothing more than had been expected by
himself and other railway officers.
"At the time the proposed restoration of the Crow's Nest rates was
under discussion," he said "it was made abundantly evident by the railroads
that they could not afford in the face of existing costs of operation for labor,
materials, equipment, etc„ to extend the operation of the Crow's Nest rates
beyond the limits orginally fixed. It was also fully explained that if restora-
tion was forced upon the railways many inconsistencies would inevitably re-
sult, and some parts of the country would be unduly Savored in oomparxson.
with others."
"One of the grave difficulties of the day in railway operation in Canada
is that theorists in railroad management are preaching a doctrine that gives
no thought to the cost of operation in relation to the price the railroad is
permitted to get for the service it gives as a common carrier. In most other
lines of business, cost to the consumer is based on the cost of production.
I cannot see why it should be different in the selling of freight or passenger
transportation, Somebody has got to pay wages and other operating costs,
and if the shipper is not willing to do so, I do not know who will, unless the
country will pay it as a whole and I imagine that even the strongest sup-
porters of public ownership will agree that wo have reached the limit in that
direction.
"It is axiomatic, too, that the continuous betterments and improve-
ments to existing railway lines and the provision of capital for extensions
and new constructions generally depends directly upon the earning power
of the companiee1 especially in the case of the Canadian Pacific, whose funds
must be secured m the money markets of the world and it would be in every
respect unwise to borrow unless the general earnings of the company were
satisfactory. One of the difficulties facing the railway companies m Canada
Is that there is not a sufficient margin between revenues and outlays to permit
of surpluses for working capital and f or the general purposes of the companies,
Until this margin lis re-established extensive borrowings are highly un-
desirable, Nothing is more condueive to satisfactory commercial :conditions
than a healthy transportation situation and this can only be accomplished
if a proper relation exists between revenues and disbursements.
"I should like to point out," said Mr. Beatty, "that the Interstate Com.
merce Commission in the matter of rates and charges an grain and grain
products in the western United States very recently decided that the general
basis of rates then in effect did not appear to be unreasonable and dismissed
the application for reduction. Here it should be remembered that rates on
grain and grain products now in effect in western Canada are not less than
26 per cent. lower than those in the United States. The Inter -state Com-
merce Commission is comprised of highly qualified economists who approach
the technical and allied questions of railway rates and costs in a thoroughly
scientific manner. On the other handrthe rate situation in Canada which has
been the subject of so much comment recently has been brought about by the
restoration by act of Parliament of a scale of rates fixed ltearly thirty years
ago without regard at all to present day costs of the inevitable disruption of
the relationship which otherwise existed between various commodities and
various proeucieg centres."
Mr. Beatty added that figures had been Bled with the Government showing
the approximate decreases in revenue to both the Canadian National and
the Canadian Pacific railways by the adoption of the Crow's Nest rates on
grain. Those, he said, reflected a Very serious loss of Darning powers to the
roads which would be made still more serious by the recent restoration of the
Wes ort the balance of the commoditieb enumerated in that act:
