d The railroad is a necessity as far as real estate and indusâ€" trial development are concerned. It has a definite and imporâ€" tant place in the social, economic, and industrial life of this great north shore territory. For the sake of all these benefits, some action should be taken at an early date to insure conâ€" tinued operation of the railroad. What is the situation ? Can the answer be supplied by Colonel A. A. Sprague, reâ€" ceiver, and his associates who are charged with the responsibilâ€" ity of operating the North Shore Line? intended f Mâ€"nuvfl‘cud"dhmq g:'!!:‘ cwith N-_-':-‘-“'--‘- writer. ‘They should reach the editor We feel that a government loan is the solution to the railâ€" road‘s plight. Once the cars are streamlined, the roadbed imâ€" proved to provide faster service, and other equipment brought upâ€"toâ€"date, the railroad cannot but regain the service it has lost to competing forms of transportation.

The recent closing emphasized the importance of the railâ€" road to the many communities between Chicago and Milwaukee. That is why the businessmen and their families are fearful that another financial crisis may loom in the history of the line in the near future if the operating revenues of the line are not sufficient to meet expenses. New building development is greatly hampered by this feelâ€" ing of uncertainty. People will not build in the subdivisions lining the nflronj's right of way unless they can be assured of adequate transportation in years to come. Business enterprises will not be established in those areas until the promoters are able to rely on dependable rail service. School children and shoppers are others who would find their daily lives disrupted by lack of transportation. Another point to consider is the job situation. If the railâ€" road closes again, because of financial difficulties, more than a thousand employees will be thrown out of work. Their payroll amounts to more than $2,000,000 annually. It is the opinion of The Highland Park Press that a considâ€" erable investment will be needed to enable the North Shore Line to modernize its equipment, speed up service, and retain the prestige it enjoyed as the fastest and most convenient railâ€" road between Chicago and Milwaukee. Officials of the North Shore Line might agree that such an investment is necessary, but their first question would be: ""Where are we going to get the money ?" ; fprrst fhastia» of cach week by the Udell Printing Company.

Everybody along the north shore was overjoyed when the differences between the workers and the management were ironed out sufficiently to allow the railroad to resume operaâ€" tions, but a vague feeling seems to exist that the future is not entirely rosy. & PAGE FOUR ~ It seems to us continued operation of the railroad is essenâ€" tially a public problem and that the many shore communities which depend on the North Shore Line for transportation should be given the answer as to the future prospects of the line. So long as an element of doubt remains in the public mind whether or not the railroad will continue to operate, real estate and industrial development will be greaty hampered. wiersonreirs»â€"s«~â€"~â€" || Give The Working Man and Business A Chance!
