We have long thought that the old
party politicians regarded the flag as
a bed quilt to hide under, but we
must confess that we were surprised
to find the Central:a (Wash.) tragedy
turned into Republican campaign ma
terial against the Democrats. Even
though we are hostile we find our
selves unwittingly overestimating thu
possible honor and decency of the
politician.

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,OO0,000 now invested in our
railroads, there will have to be added in the next
few years, to keep pace with the nation 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 re-
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 tie skill and loyalty of the best work
men - in competition with other industries bid
ding for CAPITA, managers andmen - 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 on the
American principle Of rewards for work well done.
