The railways of tho United States ara
more than ono third, nearly one half, of
all tho railways of tho world. They
carry a yearly traffic so much greater
than that of any otl-er country that
thcro Is really no basis for comparison.
Indeed, tho traffic of any two nations
may bo combined and still it does not
approach the commerce of Amclca
borne upon American railways.

ASK any doughboy who was "over
jflLhere" and he will tell you thatv
American railroads are the best in the world."
He saw the foreign roads in England
and France, the best in Europe and in
other Continental countries and he knows.
The part railroads have played in the
development of the United States is be,
yond 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 well done.
' 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.
