Smart Businessmen Solve
Wartime Food Problem
ATLANTA, May 13 (P)
Twenty Atlanta business men
have solved their war-time food
problem by organizing the "We
will eat club."
Last fall, even before food ra
tioning had started, they ar
ranged for farmer W. G. Bush to
raise enough vegetables, hogs
and beef to feed themselves and
families.
Each member started paying
$5 a month the first of the year
to finance Bush on his 140-acrc

Strength
through Strain
When your house It burning, you pour on oil
the water you con get. It Is on emergency and
. you meet It with everything you have oil your
energy and all your resources.
So It Is with the railroads now.'
Southern Pacific Is carrying the biggest traffic
load In' Its history. This traffic Is war traffic
emergency traffic. It must be given emergency
handling, which does not mean economical
handling. Our first consideration Is to keep the
trains rolling. . '
Where additions ' to our plant and facilities
would help us handle our emergency load quick
er or more efficiently In our country's need, we
have gone ahead and made the improvements,
limited only by the shortage of manpower, ma
terials and equipment. ..-''
Last. year Southern Pacific spent $53,945,408
for equipment, additions and Improvements.
We made these expenditures not through gov
ernment subsidy, but with our own resources
and our own credit. : "-. -
These Improvements have helped us materially
to meet our wartime responsibility. "
In many coses this Increased capacity Is far
more than we would need for peacetime traffic.
But "first things come first," and of first im
portance is the goal of 100 per cent accomplish
ment for Uncle Sam.;
While our main thought must be eoncentroted
on the war effort, we, like everyone else, can
not help but cast an Inquiring eye to the future
. . , offer the wor is won. All industry will have
great responsibility then, too.
We feel sure that the human testing and strain
we are going through now will give us all great
er strength for successful performance after the
' war, ' i
And the additions and Improvements to our
' physical plant,' strengthened now for' war pur
poses, will increase our ability to give improved
railroad service to our' country in peacetime.
The more then .11,000 S.P. men now in the
armed forces will return to a stronger, more
efficient railroad. j
So, while devoting all our energies to the war
time job, with confidence in victory we look
forward to peace and the opportunity then to
play a vigorous and constructive part in an Im
proved post-war economy.
