\n### I.INTRODUCTION\n\nThe Bureau of Railway Eeonomies published a bulletina inMay,1925,in which the total eost of transportation on the NewYork State Barge Canal was compared with the total cost of trans-portation by rail.  \nThe bulletin dealt with the eapital cost of reconstructing theold Erie Canal into the Barge Canal,during the years 1905 to1925;the amount of trafie handled on the Barge Canal from itsopening in 1919 to 1923;and the various elements entering intothe total cost of transportation by eanal,ineluding  \n(1)the estimated annual cost of carrying the eapital in-vested by the State of New York in the eanal,i.e.,the fixedcharges,  \n(2)the cost of maintenance,repair,and depreciation,and  \n(3)the immediate cost of transportation,as reflected inthe rates paid by the shipper to eanal boat operators.  \nThe State of New York has built and owns the New York StateBarge Canal,having issued special canal bonds to meet the costof construction.The State also maintains the canal,which is opento the publie as a transportation ageney free of toll.In otherwords,the people of the State of New York have taxed and are con-tinuing to tax themselves to build and maintain a free waterway.The only cost ineurred by a shipper of freight on the canal is thecharge he pays to the operator of the barge or boat which carries hisfreight,together with storage and terminal charges and insuranee,and the barge operator's charge is low because he is under no ex-pense for the use or maintenance of the waterway,and his onlyeapital investment is in his boatBeeause it is government prop-erty,no taxes are assessed on the canal or its terminals and ware-houses,which fact further reduces the cost of transportation bycanal.  \nIn figuring the total cost of transportation via
