 q am here for an inspection of the roads equipment, and incidentally taking note of most anything that would be of interest to a man who is president of a railroad that is being controlled by the government, and I am taking orders from Director General McAdoo just like a good soldier. I have nothing to say with reference to the situation that confronts railroads in being taken over by the government, nor have I anything to say about the situation which confronts the government in taking over the railroads.
 "1n regard to railroad presidents or controllers I am very much like the preacher who told the story in your city recently about the circuit rider, who
