E "Southern City* GROUPED together, the workers of the Southern Railway System and their families would make up a city larger than Atlanta, Birmingham, Richmond, Memphis, Jacksonville, Knoxville or Chattanooga. Only 25 cities in the United States would be as big. But almost every city and town in the South ?the hundreds of communities served by the Southern?have a part in "Southern City." In these communities the 60,000 Southern men and women who operate the Southern Railway System live and work. To the upbuilding of these communities, stimulating business and prosperity, goes the $90,000,000 they earn each year, as well as the taxes paid c by the Southern and the large amounts of money it spends in the South for materials and supplies. The Southern is always striving to build up the South by bringing in new people, new capital, new industry; by constantly working with the farmer to improve agricultural conditions, and by providing safe, swift, economical transportation. These efforts are dictated by sound business considerations. The Southern can prosper only as the South grows and develops. So U T H.
