RAILROADS GEARED TO WAR AHE A NATIONAL NEED. THOSE OF THE PRESENT WERE CONSTRUCTED ONLY FOR THE WAYS OF
peaceful commerce, with no thought of strategy. Should the call be made upon our transportation facilities to hurl a forco of hundreds of thousands of
men from the centre of the country to the Pacific slope or to the Mexican border to meet invaders from beyond the sens the unniilitary nature of these
"boulevards of steel" would be at once apparent. The very genius of. railroading is American and great traft'ie problems here and abroad have been
solved, by American brains, and yet the methods used in this country for the tiaiisui.rtation of troops arc priinative compared with those which are em
ployed in the European war. Great armies have to be mobilised and transported in a hurry with enormous quantities of munitions and supplies and
planning long in advance is imperative to avoid fatal congestion.
