"It’s not our hat!”
.he Southern Railway doesn’t pass the hat for your
tax dollars. (
Other forms of commercial transportation use high
ways, airports and waterways that are built and
maintained with your tax dollars—and ours.
But railroads are strictly on their own. Every penn^ ,
they spend to build and maintain their own steel
“highways” comes right out of the railroads’ pockets
—not yours. „
We’re glad we are not in the'“hat-passing”"class.
We prefer to stand on our own financial feet in the old
fashioned American way. And we believe that if there
were no hat-passers in the transportation business ft.
would be better for you and for all America.
