The Duchess of Atholl naturally approaches political sub- one-half miles below London, on jwh; from the onnservatlve View point. One of the most interesting chap- ters in her work concerns the ques- tion of State ownership. Her Lady- shlp cites in particular experience in regard to railways when she maintains that State-managed schemes tend‘ to be more costly in their working- “Mainly for military reasons," says the Duchess," rail- ways have been the chief subject of State experiment. In most cases the results have been far from ‘nuc- cessful. The railway systems of the totes of the Australian Comm - wealth, for instance, show an ag- gregate loss for the past iivc years 0f $155,000,000; Belgium, after 80 years’ experience of loss under a State scheme, leased her railways to a self-governing company in 1926; and New Zealand has lately been advised to remove her railway sys- tem as for as lossiblc from State control, in order that drastic econ- omies may be cliectcd." The Duchess makes no mention of Canadian experience in regard to railway ownership, but passing on to discuss merchant shipping she says‘. ‘From war days onwards. France, Australia, thc United States, Canada and Tasmania have made experiments in State merchant shipping. All havc icd lo heavy loss. As a result, France. Australia and Tasmania have finally (given up the venture, and the United States have iold muny ofthelr glligs.
