PUBLIC POLL FOR
RETURN OF RAILS
Public opinion is very strongly in
favor of an early return of the rail-
roads to their owners as shown by
the vote of nearly H.ooo editors of
daily and weekly newspapers through-
out the country. A questionnaire
sent to every editor in the country
(134241 brought replies from 592:2
or 44 per cent and 83 per cent of the
editors reported their communities in
favor of a resumption of private
management.
The questionnaire was conducted
on behalf of the Association of Rail-
way p.'xecutivcs and was completed
before President Wilson announced
in his recent message to Congress thai
the Government would relinquish
control of the railroads at the end of
the year.
Editors were asked not to give their
personal opinions but to appraise the
sentiment in their communities. The
four chief questions were as follows:
1. Does public opinion in your
judgment seem to favor the return of
railroads to private ownership and
operation as soon as this can proper-
ly be accomplished?
2. If so is this opinion in part
based on the desire to see competition
in service and facilities restored?
3. What is the present sentiment
in your community on government
ownership and operation of railroads?
4. What has been the feeling re-
garding the proposal to extend the
period of government operation for
five years?
On the firnt question '"Does pub-
lic opinion in your judgment seem to
favor the return of railroads to pri-
vate ownership and operation as soon .
us this can properly be accomplixh
ed?" K3 per cent voted yes 11 per
cent voted no while 4 per cent were ;
doubtful and 2 per cent cent e-
pressed no opinion.
On the second question ''If so is
this opinion in part bused on the de-
sire to see competition in service
and facilities restored?" 75 tier cent

That public opinion on the rail-
road question is not divided on party
lines is plain from a study of the

be in New F.ngland and the South
sections widely apart in political
sentiment. Only 4 per cent of New

Southern editors reported their peo-
ple favoring government ownership.
