In all, more than
dollars hns been expended on the road
out of the general revenues of the
titmte of Texas. In addition to this,
tho entire earnings of the road have
been donated to it for Its upkeep and
maintenance. The operation of this
road from September 1, 1917, to De-
cember 31, 1920. has cost the people
of Texas $159,378.66. Every time a
wheel has been turned since the con-
struction of this railroad 13 years ago,
it has thrown the State deeper In
debt. The rolling stock of this road
Is now practically worthless, its road
bed Is worn out. and the entire ays
tem is depleted.

PAROLES AND PARDON8
It seems to me that It has been
demonstrated beyond a doubt that this
road never has been, is not now, aud
never will be. capable of sustaining
Itself. This annual drain of money
on the public treasury should be no
longer permitted, To do so would be
unbusinesslike and unjust to the tax-
paying citiscus of the State.
I therefore submit this problem to
the^ legislature for its solution. In
studying it w»* should not forget that
on ucrount of the operations of this
road we now owe the permanent
sdiool fluid $130,000. In addition to
this debt, which I judge must be paid
from the general revenues, you will
find that there are outstanding debts
$19021;
