When Edwards and Buchan as
sumed management of the Atlantic
and East Carolina Railroad, they
immediately put into effect the
sound business principles they had
gained through the years. They
realized that the A. and E. C. niust
be bolstered from the foundation.
And to that end they set to work.
Every extra dollar went into the im
provement of physical facilities—and
they still are following the same pro
gram. Since they have taken charge
they have purchased si.\ additional

Makes Some Profit
Practically all the present prof
its of the A. and E. C. are going back
into the road in order to put it in
first-class condition. Edwards points
out. The company, nevertheless, has
been able to show some slight net
profits after the huge bills for main-
story of the last quarter-cen-
! tury from Versailles to Pearl Har
bor. Entitled "United We Stand” the
film chronicle gives articulation and
purpose to the angry confusion of
our times. Slated to open at the

first fiscal year showed a loss of
$3,900. but the next fiscal year show'-
ed a profit of $16,000. Thousands of
dollars, meanwhile, had gone into
improvements. The past calendar
year showed a slight loss due to ex
tension and rehabilitation work, but
the current fiscal year may show a
profit, Edwards indicates.
One reason for the tremendous in
crease in business has been construc
tion of the U. S. Marine Corps base
at Cherry Point. Freight trains rum
ble day and night over the line.
After devoting more than two
years to placing the old "Mullet
j Road" in shapi- to handle the busi
ness. the company now is entering a
period of aggressive expansion. This
includes not only the railroad, but
also the territory served by it. The
foremost project now’ under con
sideration is that of opening the
way for more freight business from
the ocean through the Morehead City
Port Commission.

It has been called an inspiring ac
count torn from civilization's most
tumultous period. Screened against
the blazing background of the whole

story is told by Lowell Thomas. An
