"The Southern serves the South“
is the watchword for every South
ern Railway employee.

Southern Railway System
deposits in Southern banks
an average of $150,500
each banking hour*
$230,000 a day
in wages
In the past five years Southern Rail
way System has paid its employees
wages amounting to $442,000,000—
an average of $230,000 a day—dis
tributed through the South in pur
chases and savings.
Average earnings of our employees
are now more than $1,500 a year, as
compared with $880 in 1917. The rise
in w a ges 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 Rail
way service have happily been en
abled to raise their standards of living.
Our employees recognize that our
ability to pay attractive wages, with
out placing an unfair burden of freight
and passenger rates 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 pro*
ductive efficiency of the Southern
as a transportation machine, and the
loyal and faithful cooperation of our
employees is making this machine pro
duce its full measure of public service.
