He saw the foreign roads--in England and Prance, the best in Europe -- and in other Con- ; tinental countries -- and he knows. Hie part railroads have played in the development of the United States is beyond measure. American railroads have achieved high standards of public service by far-sighted and courageous investment of capital, and by the constant striving of managers and men for rewards for work Jljjell done. 1 We have the best railroads in the world -- we -Iftust continue to have the tiMt*i1 ----- But they must grow. To the $20,000,000,000 now invested in our railroads, there will have to be added in the next few years, to keep pace with the nation's business, billions more for additional tracks, stations and terminals, cars and engines, electric power houses and trains, automatic signals, safety devices, the elimination of grade crossings -- and for reconstruction and engineering economies that will re* 4uce the cost of transportation. * J| To attract to the railroads in the future the investment funds of many thrifty citizens, the directing genius of the most capable builders and managers, and the skill and loyalty of the best workmen -- in competition with other industries bidding for capital, managers and men -- the railroad industry must hold out fair rewards to capital, to managers and to the men. , ? j American railroads will continue to set world Standards and adequately serve the Nation's needs i they continue to be built and operated on the American principle of rewards for work well-done. &hi^adv(fiiimefd^ flm dstirinj imfirmatim wmotmi tk* railrtai titmmtitm mmg oUmi* litmtmr* kg writxn§ to The Attotim ** ^wj I•I-M>»N P^r EF> «< •M Avl|wl'V,.
