‘Transition Year Brings Problems To lfianadian National»

. (By R. C. Vsuglun, C.M.G., Chair- man and u-esidenf, Carvailsn National Railways) Alter a war that left scarcely n. nation untouched. it was too much to expect. that 1M6, the first full year free from destruction. should [see the world swing back to nor- .mnl. The transition from total war to total peace will zake murh longer than twelve months. In i846 we made a start in the trem- endous labour of mending the broken world; we tackled the prob- loms of reconstruction. reconvcr- sion and rehabilitation. The year ,was full of tnisunderstanriirlgs, ‘conflicts end frustrations; but we made s beginning.

In common with all other ra-l- ways, ihr Cwnadlan National Sys- tem suffered e serious decline m net revenues in i946. Operating costs were affected by higher ,wege rates and higher umt prices

‘for materials, these costs rep- resenting an increase at the rate of $30.890,000 per anmlm over

in 1M6 are estimated at 79975000 n: compared with 79.94100!) In the previous year. Notwithstanding ‘this slight increase in tonnage, the gross freight revenues declined, $16,500,000, due to a substanziolf drop in the average haul and in

‘the class of commodities trans- ported. Approximately 22.081000 rev-

enue passengers were varied dur- ing the _vcar. a dam-ease of 27 per cent from the 1945 total of 39,. 370,680.

Operating revenues of the sys- tem have been estimated u: 9:9.- 100000 a decrease of 834673000, or eight per cent. from 1045.
