They also get along without almost everything They don't understand that profits Jwcar overalls. If they had some profits, they'd also have some prosperity and payrolls insterd: of slave labor.

Because profits work harder than anyone. Here's why: Last year the Illinois Central made a profit of $18 million. From that profit, and profits saved from previous years we took $21) million to improve the railroad and pay olT par ot the mortgage. There's no silk hat on profits that buy tools for workers to do a transportation job for you and thereby earn 164 million a yeir in wages. If our profits drop too low or become losses we run short of working dollars.

We en joy no backlog of government subsidies no publicly owned airports or highways or waterways. We're on our own. and we pay taxes ($28 million a year) besides. When subsidized highway, air' and waterways transportation cuts into our business, it costs you tax money and may cause us to need higher rates. We say the cheapest way for you to get good transportation is to let us all highway and water carriers compete on an equal basis.

Free competition such as this has made us the most prosperous people in the world. "Wayne A.
