EcUTlvE is VIGOROUS MAN.
Is In Touch With All Departments o,
the Road and Knows the Duties
of Each EmpIoye.

President Oscar G. Murrav of the
Baltimore an Ohio railroad, will be
81 years old Wednesday. Despite the
hard work ard the responsil i.ities
resting upon him as the executive
head of one OF the leadinS trunk lines
OF the country, Mr.. Murray does not
look his age. His hair and moustache
are white, it is true, but his eyes are
clear and his corr lexion as rudy and
healthful as many men calf ais age.
His endurance For work is remark
able. Few men in the Baltimore and
Ohio employ put in more time than
he in serving the company, and none
secure better results. He keeps in
close touen with the ra.nifioations or
the several departments of the sys-
tenn, and ii is his thorough knowledge
of details which makes him so valu-
able to the company. He knows the
duties of each employe, rom wee
president to track hand, and succeeds
in informing himself whether the
work OF all is Icing efficiently and
satisfactorily performed. The Balti-
more and Ohio's earnings, as those OF
other companies, have fallen off as a
result Of the general business depres-
sion, and Mr., Murray was one of the
first to propose a conference of the
presidents OF the roads in the east
trunk-line territory to consider meas
ures for the protection Of the stock
holders.
President Murray started the policy
of cutting his own salary more than a
year ago. At that time an order
went into effect that all employees and
officers receiving more than $3.50 a
month should get a 10 Yer cent. re-
duotion. This was done and is still
in force. This policy was adopted be-
cause it was believed that the cut
would fall upon class best able to
