this comment is made on the opera
ton of railroads under government
control:
"Just what bearing government con-
troll will have on our methods of
doing business with the railroads is
somewhat probe ma teal. 1t is rea-
sonable to assume that it will be
necessary for us to prepare to do
business on national basis and that
we must also prepare to put the
necessary machinery in motion to en-

that Of giving the government the
best service we are capable of.

belittle their Importance, but neither
shall we overlook the fact that we rep
