Lumber & Supply Co., Points Moral In the last six years the large railâ€" ways of the United States have paid $80,000,000 more to the tax collector than they have paid in cash dividends to their stockholders. In five of the last six years, railway taxes have exâ€" amounts varying from about $300,000 in 1920 to $36,000,000 in 1923.
