Since the imperative need for ships and armaments limits enlargement of railroad facilities at this time, maximum service must be exacted from every car and locomotive. • | We are maintaining with existing facilities Burlington’s traditionally high transportation standards, confident the patriotic cooperation of travelers and shippers will help America’s railroads do double duty for the duration.
