The railways of the United States are more than one-third,
nearly one - half, of all the railway* of the world. 1’hey
carry a yearly traffic *o much greater than that of
any other country that there ia really no baais for compan
ion. Indeed, the traffic of any two nations may l»c c om
bined, and still it does not approach the commerce of
America borne upon American railways.
Stmtft Sensfrr Cummfm.
Ask Any Doughboy Who
and he will tell you that American railroads are
the best in the world.
lie saw the foreign roads — in England and
France, the best in Europe — and in other Con
tinental countries — and he knows.
The part railroads have played in the develop
ment of the United States is beyond measure.
American railroads have achieved high stand
ards of public service by far-sighted and courage
ous 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 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 recon
struction and engineering economies that will re
duce the cost of transportation.
To attract to the railroads in the future the in
vestment funds of many thrifty citizens, the direct
ing genius of the most capable builders and man
agers, and the skill and loyalty of the best work
men — in competition with other industries bid
ding 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 rewrards for work well done.
