The necessary funds must be secured in competition with world-wide borrowing and only as the public and the government • see to it that the railroads are granted rates that will provide a fair return and^that regulation is constructive, will, railroad ^securities attract new capital. , / *** ^r-.t'''l .. •'/ !«••'. * aSBommgHk IMBNIIIIWII .hilniiiiiiiiilM i i tliilim IP I \' il in \lilli i ' Watervilie, N. ., were week end'.guests of Airs.
