It appears to me that if this question of Railway Management is to be considered from a business aspect, and not from a party government point of view, it will scarcely admit of argument.
Pity you cannot refer the matter to the honest, capable and disinterested employes of the service. I believe to a man they would pronounce for non-political management—if they dare.
If I needed an argument against political control, I would point to the great anxiety shown by certain politicians to get the finger of party Government into the pie.
