It was created with the cooperation of President Roosevelt to serve
in a advisory capacity to the chief executive in this great crisis. Dur
ing the year just closed, the Railroad Brohterhoods had become part
of the board. What 1912 thus auspiciously began, can be expanded
in 1913.

because they did not prevent the
