' We have the best railroads in the world we must continue to have the best. But they must grow. To the $20,000,000,000 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- reconstruc tion and engineering economies that will reduce the cost of transportation s To attract to the railroads in the future tho7 investment funds of many thrifty citizens, the direct ing genius of the most capable builders and man agers, and the skill and loyalty of theTbest workmen j 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. American railroads will continue to set world standards and adequately serve the Nation's needs if they continue to be built and operated on the American principle of rewards for work well done. ffiib advertisement II publiAlied hj ihS 5!MociaMokEailway czcutwe&, note detlrina inoiHitnf (on rrnirernlut the nillrortd l(untoti mnjoMflftl ltttrtv Jure by icrittnY.io 'ne.iaaoclaUouoUailwauExccutivei.OlVroadimu, .Vet" or!:.
