SOUTHERN RAILWAY
SYSTEM I
$230,000 a day
in wages r
In the past five years the Southern Railway
System has paid to its employees wages
amounting to $422,000,000—an average, of
$230,000 a day—distributed through the South
in purchases and savings.
Average earnings of our employees are now
more than $1,500 a year, as compared with
$880 dn 1917. The rise in wages has been
greater than the rise in the cost of living, so
that the families of 60,000 employees whose
livelihood is gained in Southern Railway serv
ice have happily been enabled to raise their
standards.of living.
Our employees recognize that cur ability- to
pay attractive wages, without placing an un
fair burden of freight and passenger r^t^s on
the millions of Southern families served by
the Southern, depends as much on their
efforts as ours.
By large expenditures of new capital we have
greatly increased the productive efficiency
of the Southern as a transportation machine,
and file loyal and faithful cooperation of our
employees is making this tnachine produce its
full measure of public service. , ’)
ut The Southern serves the South’*
Is the tUUrhutmi for every South'
cm Railway employee.
