Continuing Progress

What makes railway? Physically,
it consists of the land over which the
steel rails extend, freight and passenger
cars, locomotives, stations, yards, shops,
stores, office buildings and large, skilled
corps of men and women.
There is another ingredient, without
which the physical plant of railway
would be as inefficient and unproductive
as an automobile or tractor without a
steering gear. 1t is policy MANAGE
n1ent's established plan for the con-
duct of the railways operations and
services.
Great Northern Railways policy is
older than its line from Lake Superior to
Puget Sound. The policy of continuing
progress and consistent adherence to
it have earned for Great Northern world
wide recognition as leader in railway
transportation.
Within short time, the people who
work and live along Great Northern will
see and hear about the newest product
of the railways program for the continu-
ing progress of its services. A fleet of
new Empire Builders soon will be
running between Chicago and the
Pacific Northwest.
Even during the war, while helping to
perform the greatest TRANSFORMATION Job
in history, Great Northern stuck to policy
and ordered the new Empire Builders.
The sleek, diesel-powered stream1iners
will be the first, new transcontinental
sleeping car and coach trains of the post
war period. They also will be first to
establish daily, 45-hour service over the
northern route from Seattle and Port
land to Chicago.
Hungry Horse news and Columbian. [volume] (Columbia Falls, Mont.) 1946-1948, 1946-12-19

A 45-hour schedule for 2,214-n1iie
run, which involves crossing two
major mountain ranges at safe, COM
Portable speeds, will not permit stops
atnany stations on Great Northern's
main lines. Towns the streanHner
must "highbaH' in order to make
that schedule win be afforded the
services of other fine trains. These
supporting services will be main
tanned as long as public patronage
justifes their operation.
Additional improvements in passenger
services are in Great Northern's 1947
program. Nearing construction are three
smaller, modern, diesel drawn trains.
One-the Red River Limited-will be
operated on daily, round-trip schedule
between St. Paul and Grand Forks, N. D.
Two others-the Puget Sounders-will
provide faster daily service between
Seattle and Vancouver, B. c.
Lie SOiLpoAiy PollSy 10 lCSpOiiSiDiC
for the many improvements in the rail-
ways freight services in the past several
years. Largely because of shortages of
serviceable equipment, plus lack of ma
terials for repairing and construction of
cars, freight service does not now always
measure up to Great Northern standards.
But, these war-born obstacles, which are
confronting almost every American in
dustry and business, eventually will
be surmounted.
Continuing progress in providing trans
portation services to and from its terri
tory, and the fullest possible encourage
ment for the development and welfare
of that territory are basic elements of
Great Northern's policy.

China to freedom" the prelate said
there would be even worse suffer-
ing" He declared that famine had
placed the Chinese at the gravest
point in her history.
China cannot live without help
from America Cardinal Tien said

Cardinal Ten concluded: And help
from America means food"
During the first two minutes of his
conversation with President Cor
man, the cardinal expressed his deep
interest and desire in the advance
ment of college and elementary

sire to cooperate by offering the

course in the college of arts and

Physician Shortgae
Points To Need Of
4-Year Med. School

Warning that the acute shortage
of physicians and nurses in Missis-
sippi will grow steadily worse un-
less some action is taken to remedy
it and that such a situation is grave
menace to the health Of every citiz.
en- in the State, Hayden Campbell
chairman of the United Committee
for a Four-Year Medical College
and Hospital. urged all citizens to
make known their needs to their
legislators.
Enthusiastic support Of the pro-
gram for a four-year medical college
and general hospital has come from
hundreds of thousands of men and
women all over the state, said Mr.
Campbell. But to be in favor of
this evident need of the state and to
want it carried out is not enough.
Awareness of the sorrow that has
touched many homes because Of
lack of medical care will not assure
the provision of such needed care.
Reminding his audience that Mis-
sissippi is no longer poor state and
that rapidly growing industries make
it possible to do for her people what
other states have done for years, Mr..
Campbell continued, 'The time has
come when each individual can have
a part in the program. The way to
have your part in improving Missis-
sippi's health, which means your
own health, is to ask your lawmak-
ers to put within reach Of you and
your family medical service when
it is urgently needed by making
provision for educating within the
borders Of the State young men and
young women who will practice
medicine in Mississippi for Missis-
sippians."
