As all of us know, our net ton per mile earnings go down each year. We have had to make rate reductions in order to compete with our competitors. We have had to find ways through larger cars, through unit trains, and more efficient operations to be able to transport tonnage at a lesser cost in order that we can hope to bring more clown to the bottom right-hand column.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Calibri;font-size:1.0em;color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;\"\u003eI don't think the future is too bright when we see in the railroad industry certain recommendations of more recent Emergency Boards as to what we will have to pay for labor. In the face of the restrictions that are placed upon us in adjusting our rates upward and in view of competition by other modes, it is difficult to bring more money in the till to pay these increased costs in labor, as well as supplies and equipment.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Calibri;font-size:1.0em;color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;\"\u003eTo find out how other people do it who are just as competitive in their fields as we are in ours is something that we have waited much too long to do, and I wish to commend personally the leadership of this organization for recognizing it and exposing us to the type of program that we will be privileged to listen to and participate in during the next two days.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Calibri;font-size:1.0em;color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;\"\u003eThese gentlemen who will appear before you would be most happy if you would participate in the program and question them.
