None of us has ever been accused of being sym- 11athetic to the fellow who is called upon to appear as an after-dinner talker or as a speaker before a function of this kind. Oftentimes I have thought that we were justifiable in assuming the somewhat careless, semi-hostile attitude towards a public speaker, but for the moment having ettempted to convey to you what my inward feelings are. I hope, in fact, I believe I know that I have your sympathy and possibly that will carry with it a reasonable support to some of the ideas which I might desire to convey to you. I surely do not wish to leave the your contribution, and you, in turn, have something to contribute beyond an exact equal division to the other fellow. So that in the end there is a functioning of a chain, each link of which must be the contribution of us all to the length and soundness thereof. It can be accomplished notwithstanding that me so frequently contend with onrselves that time is not possible. Every man, I believe, and possibly I should say every physically antl mentally well inan, can eff.iciently perform his responsibilities and at the same time find a time sufficient to give to that which will have for its effectiveness the establishing cf a tie as between us all. In the operation of a railroad property there are some of us called upon to deal with a relationship which may affect directly 30.000 employes, and collaterally 100,000 persons. I have always contended, and still do, that there can be established as between impression that it is not a pleasure of individualism, resulting, in many the men in an executive position and for me to fraternize with my fellow- instances. without a material benefit those upon whom he depends for a men. On the contrary, my entire life to the collective Rroup represented successful executive performance, a has been a constant endeavor to be by man. <strong>The</strong> ties I 11ave in mind, not tie that meaus much more than the that which every fellow likes to be- the ones which you produce, can be wooden tie which you produce, antl I a good fellow amongst men. <strong>The</strong>re- accomplished through the associ- an1 not, in any sense, detrncting from fore. I must really and truthfully say ations of men. When one stops to the qualities of the tie as produced to you, notwithstanding my previous think that there are very few under- by you when I make this statement. remarks, that it is a genuine pleasure to be with you. Especially must this be the case when we stop to think that the very physical dependency of that which represents transtakings which do not require the support, the energies, the good mill, the directive influences of more than one man, you can readily comprehend what is uppermost in my mind when Now I have so frequently heard you say, and by you I mean your group as a whole, represented as you are to a very large extent by the Association representatives before me, that preserportation is that which you gentle- 1 say to you that the tie that I am vation is something to be attained if men produce-the tie, and, of course, talking about is something that I am the stability of your production is to be I would like to talk to you about the inclined to believe that in the rush upheld.
