and provide transportation tools valued at $20,000 for every IHinois Central worker.

.

-

It's savings like yours, invested over several generations, that have helped build the [1linois Central and other railroads. \

On the Illinois Sentral such investment has added up to some 765 million dollars— roundly $20,000 for each of the 40,000 members of our railroad

family.

With the tools provided by this investment, each Illinois Central worker last year moved 1,350 passengers and 1,700 tons of freight.

The ability to provide such tools depends on what is left over after paying operating expenses and

taxes. On the Illinois Central this amounted in

1946 to 3% % of the present investment. For all railroads it was 2%{%. Both are far short of the 6% most people think is needed.

Railroads must earn enough to sustain and improve their service for the sake of those who look to them for transportation — those whose friendship and patronage the Illinois Central is determined to continue to deserve.
