They point out that the natural expansion of this economical route would cause terminals to grow. And they show that the viaducts would pass above about 40 public highways, thus avoid- ing cross roads that would imperil motor traffic. The estimated cost of building and operating the line for five years is $177,000,000. The Harriman estate bought charters on the 5,000 acres of land through which the short line would run. Easy grades and curves, | it is pointed out, would permit oper- ation at the lowest cost. And—im- portant in a time of business depres- sion—the railroad would give em- ployment to 20,000 men. Not a New Rule The role of a fighter isn't a new one to L. F. Loree. His career has been punctuated with struggles and victory, duels of money and power, ever since he rose from a $35-a- month job as a surveyor’s assistant to become president of three rall- Toads. : He has acted as a super-doctor to many run-down, ineffective railroads. By sheer efficiency of management, he has: made them successful.. For instance, in 1900, when the Pennsyl- vania railroad was faced with fierce ition, it secured control of the i grades. In. addition, he is known to; have made inestimable contributions | to better relationships between labor | and capital. | Possesses Great Wealth If he is known as a fighter, it is because circumstances have given him the part of a fighter in many great railroad dramas. To his loyal employees, he is a kindly, almost shy man. He is immensely wealthy. By consistently refusing to gamble in rail stocks, he has emerged from @ position perhaps somewhat less eminent than he once held with many millions of dollars—another factor which undoubtedly annoys less prosperous rivals who are at the head of more important roads. Loree is a family man, too. He always was fond of playing golf and other games with his three children as they grew up. His library of technical books is one of the most complete in the country, and he is noted as a breeder of prize Guernsey cattle and for the raising’ of Orping- | ton chickens at his country home at | West Orange, N. Y. But now, at 72, he again is girded for battle. His fight to carry out the wishes of his great friend Harriman | is the most important of his life. in the country are frowning on his plans doesn't matter at all. He is used to fights.
