R. T. has the wholesouled support and confidence of the more than 10,000 employes of the company. It could not and would not have that support and confidence unless deserved. It wants the support and confidence of the public, as it has of the men. It must have the public with it if it is to serve the people as well as they should be served. There would have been no profit to the more than 10,000 employes and no profit to the company if there had been misunderstanding, doubt and an absence of justice and fair play in their relations in the last ten years. There has been profit to both by absolute adherence to the Square Deal; by always living up to the spirit and the letter of a promise or a pledge. The future, the prosperity of P. R. T., is bound up in the prosperity of the City of Philadelphia. The city and the company have the same interest in good service, in honest service and in the best service possible at the lowest fare compatible with fair return to the company. The management proved itself to its employes, and the employes proved themselves to the management. Why, then, cannot both of them prove themselves to the nearly 2,000,000 people in the Philadelphia district in whose weii:being their interests are inseparably bound? It is the purpose of the Mitten Management to "go to the people." It intends to inform them of its plans, its hopes, its troubles. There has been too much of fog, misstatement, misunderstanding. It means to talk to them man-to-man fashion, just as it has with its more than 10,000 co-workers. It is going to tell the plain facts about transit matters. It is going to clear up doubt, suspicion and misunderstanding between the management and the public, if there be any such thing. It believes the public will be as responsive to proof as were the men of the P. R. T. This is the first of a series of advertisements in which P. R. T. will state its case plainly, tersely, frankly. You are intimately concerned, just as the employes of P. R. T. were concerned when we laid our case before them. Let us get together as men as partners in the enterprise of doing the best humanly possible for this city of ours. P. R. T. people have a slogan "Co-operation always wins." P. R. T. is eager, anxious, to co-operate with the people to the end of supplying a car service of which they will have every reason to be proud and which will meet the ever expanding needs of the city. P. R. T. can accomplish little without public confidence. It can accomplish little if it does not merit the good will of the people. Transportation means much to the life of the city. We can develop a system to meet the city's growing needs if we w)rk together-and if we plan together intelligently, honestly, understandingly. PHILADELPHIA RAPID TRANSIT COMPANY, T. E.
