DEAN W.U1K4A i "What about postwar and South­ ern Pacific?" is a question we meet more and more frequently these days, since our railroad is one of the West's largest industries. It is a difficult question, because our future course depends on several hard economic factors we cannot fully foresee or control ... factors such as postwar income and outgo, available cash, credit, the level of business activity, and the amount of income left after taxes. (Our taxes in 1941 were $21,000,- 000; in 1942, $77,000,000; and they will take another big jump in 1943.) JFe cast an inquiring look at the future every time we order new locomotives. Since the beginning of 1939 w* have received or ordered $46,000,- 000 worth of locomotives—a total of 300 steam or diesel engines — and we would order more diesels if we -could get them. We need these engines now to do our war job, and we have no regrets over' the expenditures involved. But it is a question whether or not we will have a surplus of power for postwar operations. Prewar progross a duo to postwar alms Our actions in the past can be taken a* a measure of our urge to go ahead in the future. During the dark decade of railroad rev­ enues, 1930 to 1940, a new era in railroading developed such im­ provements as air conditioning of trains, streamlining, and the use of lighter weight metals. Southern Pacific then placed in service such trains as the Day­ lights, the City of San Francisco and the Lark, and was in process of streamlining other trains when the war put a stop to construction of new passenger equipment Freight service, too, was being speeded up and improved. Ono example was the development of fast overnight freight service, a co­ ordination of rail and truck trans­ portation, with deliveries so fast that waybills had to be tele­ graphed to destinations. So, while bending every effort to handle our war load success­ fully, we plan, when peace comes, to continue our forward course by: ] Creation of new services and * methods made possible by services inaugurated before the war. 2 Further development of serv- * ices people like and use, as contrasted with services that the public does not use, and which are operated at a loss, acting as a handicap to greater progress. J Extension of improvements * in train accommodations and new inventions and discov­ eries adaptable to railroad transportation. Postwar readjustment poses grave problems requiring realistic and constructive thought by all Amer­ icans if they are to be solved. But we face the future with confidence. We have good reasons for □ confidence In the future We believe that American in­ genuity and enterprise will find ways to increase peace­ time production and improve distribution, and we know that railroads will be needed to carry both raw materials and finished products. In the West and South, along our own lines, the war emer- gcncy has canned an amazing industrial growth. Many of these new industries will con­ tinue in operation after the war, and they will require good railroad transportation service. □ We believe that the railroad*’ handling of their huge war load — in the face of serious manpower and equipment shortages — han won respect and a new appreciation of the essential service railroads per­ form in peace as well as war. This public attitude should en­ courage fair dealing toward the railroads and equality of treatment with other forms of transportation, an important factor in railroad progress. The wartime traffic peaks have produced increases in revenue for the railroads, although even to­ day 27 per cent of the total U. S. railroad mileage it still in receiv­ ership. Southern Pacific's financial Sosition has improved materially. 7e are attempting to reduce our debts, and have made progress. With the wartime additions to our plant — larger yards, more loco­ motives, more passing tracks and sidings, and centralised traffic con­ trol — we will be a stronger rail­ road both physically and finan­ cially when peace comes, and so better able to keep step with the progress of the territory we serve. We believe Southern Pacific will he an important factor in the post­ war prosperity and progress of this western territory by providing efficient and economical mass transportation, a first essential of industry, by turning purchasing power into trade channels through the large sums paid in wages to employes, and by heavy purchases of materials and supplies.
