This was a very much larger gain than was shown by the railroads of the country as a whole. The South was growing faster than the rest of the country. The Southern had to meet the test, but 'we bad provided for such a demand. In these ten ycars we had expended $104,000,000 of n:wcaplmltoknusethecarrymgcapwv of our lines. Our double-track had been increased from 443 to 1,021 miles; yard tracks and sidings from 2,786 to 3,351 miles; the tractive power of our locomotives had been increased 40 per cent; our average freight trainload had mounted from 274 to 500 tons, & notable gain in operating efficiency. Of the $104,000,000 expended for additions and betterments, $21,000,000 only was obe tained by the sale of new securities. - The other $83,000,000 was taken from earnings and used in the improvement of the properties. ‘The upbuilding of the Southern Railway Sys- tem to keep pace with the South has been planned with an understanding of the trans- portation needs of the South by men bred in the traditions of the South to know its problems, The Southern serves the South, and it will serve the greater South of the future,
