in the fetutit of :Canada and when
urging upon his hearers and upon,
all other business men a "sympa-
thetic regard for our needs and an
accurateappreciationof what we

'Declaring that the policy of the
Canadian Pacific Railway was one
of _faith in Canada and intelligent

his statements with a series of
graphic and deeply interesting fig-
ures. This policy, hegutsaid, has re-

„Railway- problems, Mr. Beatty
continued, were -to longer the

for new enterprises. It was true
that the 'Canadian Pacific was

on capital stock from railway earn_..

order to create reservenecessary
for annual' cipital expenditures or
•'Part of • them. Members de the
Canadian Industrial Traffic eague
Would appreciate the fate of a
company which had to borrow
everything it spent. •
Conditions in Canada during the
latter part of 1929 resulting from
the decrease in' the western grain
crop caused a serious decrease in
railway earnings, but the decrease
represented the result of an extra-,
.ordinary combination of circum-
stances. The railways had mot
failed in • efficiency nor had the
country 'suffered from anything
approaching a general depression.
It was not a condition to give much
ground for apprehension and the
situation -of 1929 was net likely to
be repeated in subsequent years.
The .Canadian' Pacific Railway,
Mt. Beatty said, had a peculiarly
national significance in that 97 per
cent of all its investments in rail,
steamship, hotels, telegraphs and
otheraetivities was in Canada, and
from the day of its inception its
policies have been dictated by faith'
in Canada and by intelligent self
interest. *"/ do not know of any
combination of factors .which tend
more towards commercial suprem-
acy than a Combinatidti of national
sentiment, a sense of public day
and unremitting/ striving for effi-
ciency, in ceder that the solvency of
the undertaking may never be
questioned and that its owners may
be'adeouately rewarded/1' the -presi-
dent declared When --emphasizing
that the Canadian Pacific was out-
standing in these factors.
"Improvements in, physical con-
ditions, construction of :new lines
and facilities is one Avay by which
corporation can show its faith
and also its leadership", Mt.
Beatty continued. The Canadian
Pacific in the past ten yeara', has
spent millions of dollars on capital
aecount in connection with
rail-
ays, it has -done many things
which represent a notable contribu-
tion. not only to its own facilities,
but to tee communities ii which
te operations are conducted. In
hat short period of time. it be.

railway, it has increased the weight ,
of rail and has block -signalled over
1,300miles; also. it haft incteased
• ies 'rail mileage by ahnost 2,500
miles, which •a few years ago .
would have been considered a eon-.
siderable system in itself. It has
built at Vancouver one of the Most
modern piers in the world for oceen
and coastal freight and passenger
service. It has completed con-
• struction and lining of the great
Connaught Tunnel in the Selkirk
,Mountains at a cost of more than
eight million dollars. It has borne,
its share d the cost of the great
viaduct in Toronto. It has spent
Millions of dollars in enlarging, -
modernizing -and strengthening its ee
bridges and it , has made the most
'conspicuous development through
the efforts of Canadian engineers 1"
in designing and constructing the
largest and, most powerful locomo-
tives in the British Empire. '
•• The value of the Canadian Pact -
fie as a good Citizen was pointed
out by the railway President. For
many years, and particularly since
the war the Canadian Pacific and
many other companies .have en-
deavoured to associate 'themselves
with, and support Many community , •
movements and to assist hospitals '
and educational rnovementi. The
rifles which applied to individual
good citizenship also applied to cor-
poratiens,
It was a frequent and logical
complaint of railways in the United'
States that they were heavily taxed
and that this taxation was almost
crippling in its effect. There was
no disputing the-correetness of,
that statement einsofar ass many
railways were concerned, but he .
would willingly assume their taxes.
if he could • be assured of, their
rates. One railway bf Canada,

fic's total tax hill was $1,382,000e.
In 1.928' it was $8,638,178; an in-
