"
It
’
s
not
a
question
of
profits
!
"
yelled
Taggart
hastily
.
"
I
haven
’
t
said
anything
about
profits
.
I
haven
’
t
given
you
any
grounds
to
insult
me
.
It
’
s
just
a
question
of
where
in
hell
we
’
d
get
the
money
to
pay
your
men
—
when
half
our
trains
are
running
empty
and
there
’
s
not
enough
freight
to
fill
a
trolley
car
.
"
His
voice
slowed
down
suddenly
to
a
tone
of
cautious
thoughtfulness
:
"
However
,
we
do
understand
the
plight
of
the
working
men
,
and
—
it
’
s
just
a
thought
—
we
could
,
perhaps
,
take
on
a
certain
extra
number
,
if
we
were
permitted
to
double
our
freight
rates
,
which
—
"
"
Have
you
lost
your
mind
?
"
yelled
Orren
Boyle
.
"
I
’
m
going
broke
on
the
rates
you
’
re
charging
now
,
I
shudder
every
time
a
damn
boxcar
pulls
in
or
out
of
the
mills
,
they
’
re
bleeding
me
to
death
,
I
can
’
t
afford
it
—
and
you
want
to
double
it
?
"
"
It
is
not
essential
whether
you
can
afford
it
or
not
,
"
said
Taggart
coldly
,
"
You
have
to
be
prepared
to
make
some
sacrifices
.
The
public
needs
railroads
.
Need
conies
first
—
above
your
profits
.
"
"
What
profits
?
"
yelled
Orren
Boyle
.
"
When
did
I
ever
make
any
profits
?
Nobody
can
accuse
me
of
running
a
profit
-
making
business
!
Just
look
at
my
balance
sheet
—
and
then
look
at
the
books
of
a
certain
competitor
of
mine
,
who
’
s
got
all
the
customers
,
all
the
raw
materials
,
all
the
technical
advantages
and
a
monopoly
on
secret
formulas
—
then
tell
me
who
’
s
the
profiteer
!
.
.
.
But
,
of
course
,
the
public
does
need
railroads
,
and
perhaps
I
could
manage
to
absorb
a
certain
raise
in
rates
,
if
I
were
to
get
—
it
’
s
just
a
thought
—
if
I
were
to
get
a
subsidy
to
carry
me
over
the
next
year
or
two
,
until
I
catch
my
stride
and
—
"
"
What
?
Again
?
"
yelled
Mr
.
Weatherby
,
losing
his
primness
.
"
How
many
loans
have
you
got
from
us
and
how
many
extensions
,
suspensions
and
moratoriums
?
You
haven
’
t
repaid
a
penny
—
and
with
all
of
you
boys
going
broke
and
the
tax
receipts
crashing
,
where
do
you
expect
us
to
get
the
money
to
hand
you
a
subsidy
?
"
"
There
are
people
who
aren
’
t
broke
,
"
said
Boyle
slowly
.
"
You
boys
have
no
excuse
for
permitting
all
that
need
and
misery
to
spread
through
the
country
—
so
long
as
there
are
people
who
aren
’
t
broke
.
"
"
I
can
’
t
help
it
!
"
yelled
Wesley
Mouch
.
"
I
can
’
t
do
anything
about
it
!
