"GOD BLESS YOU ALL"
13.
Ob December SI, I u retiring at ay own request
as President of the Southern Railway.
s. During my 14 strenuous but happy years as President,
1 have been continuously enoouraged and inspired by
the loyalty, spirit and devotion of the oountless am
aad won en, both within and outside of our Southern
Railway "family," who have worked with ne in our .'??
efforts to pronote the best interests of the South
and of the railway that "Serves the South." For this
oo-eperation, I now express my heartfelt appreciation.
Seeing our beloved Southland grow and prosper over
the years has been a rioh and satisfying personal
experienoe. The faot that I have been privileged to
play a small role in this historio drama has been
for me its own reward.
Saying "good-bye" as President has been made
easier by the Southern's Board of Directors asking
me to serve as Chairman. It is made easier, too,
knowing that I am ".giving up the throttle" to the
experienced and oompetent hands of my oolleague,
Harry A. DeButts, who has been with the Southern 35
years and who has been our Yioe President in oharge
of Operation sinoe 1937.
' k..
Ood bless you all.
