and he will tell you that American railroads are
the best in the world
He 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
Gus 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 $2O,OOO,OOO,OOO now invested in our
railroads, there will have to be added in the next
few years. to keep pace with the nations 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
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
ayers 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 Nations needs
if they continue to be built and operated the
American principle Of rewards for work well DONE

Bookkeeper Files
Unique Suit Against
Firm He Worked Fol

Orwell G. Miller yesterday depos-
tied $500. 10 with the clerk of district
court and filed a suit against the
Standard Furnace & Supply Co.
1t is an unique case. Mr.. Miller
says that he was bookkeeper for the
company up to September J.. 1919:
On that date the company employed
experts to 60 over the books, he
says, and reported that there were
shortages in the accounts. Mr..
Miller says the company refused to
allow him to employ an expert to go
over the books.
While he was employed there, he
says, he was so rushed with work
that mistakes may have occurred
He offered the company $366.l0 but
the company declined it.
He asks the court to order the
books brought into court and have
them gone over by an expert and
instructs the clerk of the court tc
pay over to the company whatever
| NAV be found due.

CITY Commissioner Zimman,

city council tentative plan for fur
Their Encouragement OF Office space.
He explained that the munich

he proposed that the Visiting Nurse
association, city chemist, city bac-
teriologist and the free dental dis

allied Offices close to the health de-
partment.
Another proposal was to move the
city electrician and the city build

floor instead of requiring water con-
sumers to go to the second floor
The prospective operation of the Sas
