license for unconscience; freedom

There is our standard of values.

From our own religious teach­

to follow them as individuals and

Come as you a re . . .
Now we know the part we played
in the Philippine invasion
The news of the successful invasion of the Phil­
ippines stirred the nation. For it was an amazing
achievement—landing great numbers of troops
and enormous quantities of supplies thousands
of miles across the Pacific.
It was a thrilling triumph for our Army, Navy
and Merchant Marine.
We railroaders got a special thrill from the
news too, not only because we are Americans but
also because we know now that months ago the
Philippine invasion started on the railroads.
And many a railroader who, in recent months, has
worked double shifts to keep the war freight roll­
ing to Pacific Ports, knows that he, too, had a part
in putting those men ashore on Leyte Island.
This mighty blow at Japan placed an especially
large burden on the Western railroads. Serving
a less populated territory, the Western lines nor­
mally do not have the density of traffic of the
eastern trunk lines, and their trackage was de­
signed accordingly. Yet the western roads, in
spite of a manpower shortage, have handled
their enormous war burden efficiently and on
schedule. Theirs has been a real achievement too.
AS ALWAYS THE VERY BEST IN
WORKMANSHIP
AND THE MOST COURTEOUS
TREATMENT
We appreciate your patronage
Since Southern Pacific is the largest Western
railroad ’’nd serves the major ports of embarka­
tion on the W est Coast, a very large portion of
the troops and war material destined for the
Philippines moved over our rails.
From now on, more and more of America's
might will roll West over the railroads for the
final showdown with Japan. Southern Pacific’s
100,000 railroaders know well how important it
is to keep these war trains rolling. But they need
help. They need the help of thousands of men
and women for this job.
There’s a job waiting for you in the supply line
that backs up our men in the Pacific. If you want
a good job with a company whose biggest job
still lies ahead, please visit one of our employ­
ment offices, or see your nearest S.P. Agent today.
