PROSPERITY
AND THE
RAILROADS
A MLRICAN railroads are XOT dying institutions. On
the contrary, they are /now, as they have been for
three-quarters of a century, the backbone of business and
industry. When the railroads prosper, all business and
industry prospers and when they are not prosperous the
entire economic structure of the nation suffers.
Cl It should be remembered that the railroads are called
upon to handle about 75 per cent of the total transportation
requirements of the nation. In this connection it is inter-
esting to note that of the remainder, two-thirds, or 15 per
cent of the total, is handled in deep-bottom boats on the
Great Lakes.
€1 It also should be remembered that railroads provide
employment for more than one and one-half million well-
paid wage earners and allied industry, dependent on railroad
purchases, provides gainful employment for another million
ultimate consumers of the products of other business and
industry.
ffl, It follows, therefore, that one of the most important
factors in bringing about a return of normal, prosperous
conditions in this country, is to restore the railroads to their
former position of leadership and financial security.
Railroads must have a living wage if they are to con-
tinue to serve America adequately and satisfactorily and
they must be placed on a parity with their competition with
regard to regulation and taxation in order that they may
continue to lead the way in the advancement and development
of the entire country.
21 I-or more than half a century the railroads have been
the economic shock absorber for the nation. They need the
sympathetic help now, as never before, of every intelligent,
well-informed person in the country.
I solicit your co-operation and support.

duction Gains
l Production of Chevrolet cars and
J trucks in August totaled 51,958 units
! as compared with 51,622 in the same
month of 1930, W. S. Knudsen, Prus-
! ident and General Manager, an-
nounced today.
August is the fourth successive
! month this year to show a gain over
the corresponding month of 1930, and
! the output for August brings the
j total for the first eight months of
; 1931 to 613,410 cars and trucks.
| Of the volume during the month
just ended, 50,985 were built for the
domestic market as against 47,264 a
year ago. The domestic production
j for July also exceeded the volume for
[July of last year. Mr. Knudsen
I stated that this sustained improve-
j ment in buying over 1930 indicates
, an increase in United States retail
■ buying power.

I September. The current employ
nient figure shows approximately
33,000 men on the Chevrolet payroll.
