ing the important part the railway
plays in sustaining the prosperity Of
our Industrial structure. They do not
exaggerate the Importance of the
railroad in our national economic af-
fairs. If anything, they underesti-
mate it. The railway has been one
of the most important instruments of
development. It will be still more
important instrument in our future
development.
Therefore. since the railroads are
of such vast Importance, it is inevita-
bic that the problem which they
present for solution should be one
which our generation must solve and
solve completely and judiciously.
We must, devise some scheme of
supervision which will insure unity
of operation and adequacy of service
We must formulate plan which win
insure funds sufficient to provide
transportation service for an expand
ing and developing country. Disputes
tied without imDairing the service
develope between the owners and the
workers. friendship and good will for
they are vital to success. We must
restore harmony between the antag-
onisttc elements and develope cor
dial relations, based on mutual under
standing, confidence and esteem.
These questions constitute the rail-
road problem problem which must
be settled by our generation, unless
as a nation, we are to be cramped in
supplying our domestic needs and
handicapped in all our international
competitive relations.

Every citizen of the United States
is familiar with our ideals of right
thinking. They are-belief in God, IN
the dignity of man. in the sacredness
of life, in the inviolability of mar

in the obligation Of promises, in -he
