The railroad is the modern pack-bearer. For every employee it carries 2,000 times as much. Back of each railroad worker there is a $10,000 investment in tracks and trains and terminals, with steam and electricity harnessed like a great beast of burden. Without this mighty transportation machine the railroad worker could do no more than the old- time packer. But with it he is enabled to earn the highest railroad wages paid in the world, while the | courln;ry gains the lowest-cost transportation in the . world. The modern railroad does as much work for half a cent as the pack-bearer could do for a full day’s 'pay. The investment of capital in transportation and other industries increascs production, spreads pros- ,perity and advances civilization. ‘To enlarge our railroads so that they may keep pace with the Nation’s increasing production, to improve them so that freight may be hauled with less and.less- human effort—a constant stream of (new capital needs Lo be attracted.
