city last wcewv frank carvel explained tjiat tho acute railway situatlonin canada today arises primarily from the fact that in thexonstruction of a line if we have not left undone the things we ought to have done wo have at least flagrantly sinned in doing the things we ought not to have done hundred of miles of parallel lines in the fraser valloyand n the yellowhead pass attest the truth of that criticism if however wd have sinned in wasteful construction in boom days it is only an additional reason why we should sharply retrench in these trying times thespubllc is con fronted with a choice of still poorer service and maximum labor costs on tho one hand and with higher rates and larger taxes on the other tho choice is no more pleasant thanits occasion there is a disposition perhaps fostered by those who al ways oppose labor demands to attribute the stagger ing losses on our national lines to the present labor scale based on tho moadoo award mr carvel while expressing no opinion on the general proposition clearly showed that this is not just even though this award was the chihj of political expediency per haps of despair it is not tho scale itself but its application that becomes irksomo ono can quite understand that an award whjch sharply limits the hours and conditions under which men of the various railway trades may operate jn a settled country with a fairly dense population might be unworkable in a country such as ours where our railways are in a great degree in the colonization stage the examples cited by mr carvel of how the rigid application of overtime for
