England is just as important to her fu- ture growth as to have adequate banking facilities. adequate commercial organiza- tions and a sensible, sane and honest pub lie opinion that will be reflected in a gov ernment that will not be swayed by the whims, prejudice or fads of the moment. To solve it right will require much pa tience, work and money from those both in and out of the railroad service, and the problem appealed to me very much when some of my friends paid me the very high compliment of asking me to come here and help.
