F. l. Sager, ‘public relations officer C. N. ., oncton, in an address at Rotary Club yesterday. “Our modern l stem of‘ trans- ortatlon," Mr. ayer explained, ‘commenced with the introduction of steam power to locomotion, the lteam angina having only been brought into use a comparative! aiicrt time before. Thin revolu ionized indultry and our ways of living, and I might add, of think- ing. for wth the power to move over great diltancea by mechani- cal means and at ever-Increasing lpeedl, there has been an ever- Irowing mingling of peoples with the result that people got to know one another and the adaption of mechanical power gave an impet- ua to invention that has resu ted in the scientific marvels we are wltneuing today, radar and ato- mic energy. "In pulling I would like to point out that the pressing matter of getttng more coal out of the ground was responsible for, the developme t of the steam engine as a source of mechanical power. As the miner went deeper into the earth after the precious coal, he encountered Increasing difficul- ties from water flooding the work- ings and the need for some hettcr means of pumping the water out of the workings put, inventive minds to work which resulted in the steam engine. Watching the engine work suggested the adapt- ion cf locomotion for hauling the coal from the pit mouth which was the ‘purpose of the first rail- ways an from there the steam locomotive was adapted for the carriage of passengers and goods. “In Canada, in the Maritimes, the same pattern was followed, namely at the coal mines in Ste]. larton, Nova Scotia, where a steam locomotive was put into operation in Sept. i839. It was not; adapted to railways as we know them un- til 1 in New Brunswick. 1854 in Nova Scotla and 1871 in Prince Edward Island. First: Steam Railway "The first steam railway in Cun- ada was inaugurated in the your 1836, iii the Province of Quebec and ran from Laprairie to St. Johns, a distance of sixteen miles. It served as a connection from the St. Lawrence to Lake Champlain and the Hudson River for the wa- fer route between Montreal and New York. So much for hiistoiy. "This war was in its nssenctront‘. of transportation, from rariying the raw products to the factories, to transporting the finisher] iro- duet to seaboard, to he carrier in ships overseas and there trims- cried to the fighting fronts. The mportancc of the railways ill this regard i5 doubtless well known to you, in fact, the railways formed the means of mass transportation and without them it is difficult to conceive h0\v victory could hzivc been won by the United Nations. “The Germans under Hitler seem to have concentrated upon the autobahn, or highway trans- port by means of trucks, to the neglect of their railway system with the result that their trans- porlation strurturc broke down and they were unable to bring u?) supplies to the front lines in suf- ficient quantities to meet the :10"- ericr strength of the Allies l!i material. “Another tlilng about the war we have just won was that in no other was mechanical transport and machines so much a part of the fighting, in fact it was prac- tically a war of transportation and machines and fortunately we ucre able to outproduce the enemy lli both. Wartime Achievement "And now tiiut the war is over and the need for suppression of information on the war effort for security reasons is passed, I will endeavour to tell you something of what was accomplished in the way of trans ortatlon. "Probably t e bout way in which I can do this is to tell you what was accomplished by the Canadian National Railways and particular- ly on the Atlantic Region as this was the front line on the eastern seaboard so far as Canada was concerned. It will probably prove. interesting to you tn learn for the first time haw the railway pre- pared for war. Events followed each other in rapid succession and some of those already seem some- what in the distant past with here and there an echo of some tragic happening that; marked those stir- rino times. ‘illpon the European situation becoming more acute in the de- clining days of August 1939, mem- hers of the local militia in the Maritime: were called out to dc- fend railway bridges and other strategic works and places and Halifax and Saint John to take over the protection of those ports in the event that war became an actual fact. Locally troops were called out to guard railway bridg- es, etc., on Saturday. Aug. 241th. Insofar as the railway was con- ccriicd, many of these were rail- way employees. "with regard to railway prop- ert, the railway provided motor trolley: in some cases to take sol- diers to strategic points to he guarded. Among the employees, members of the militia, were lov- eral officers.‘ Those occupying im- portarit politions in the rallwa returned to railway duty the fo- lowing Monday. The flrlt move- ment of troops from outside of the Maritime: consisted of two coloniot ears with soldiers from Montreal to Halifax leaving Mont- real on Tuesday, August 29th on the "Maritime Express" arirl ar- riving in Halifax the following evening.

Also on this date a Cunard White Star ship crew were trans- ported from Halifax to Levis, leav- ing Halifax on the ‘Maritlm: Ex- press’ Oct. 19th. Tanker Crews "Upon the cancellation of" the embargo legislation by the United States Government, United States seamen were forbidden to enter troops commenced to move east to, belligerent WBlOTS. This affected United States seamen manning United Stutcs tankers carrying oil and gasoline to England and France. To overcome the rllfii- culty the oil company engaged crews in Denmark, trans orted them through Germany to cnua, in Italy, and from there they were brought by an Italian ship to New York and transported from New York to Halifax by rail. The Am- erican crews brought the tankers from South America to Halifax where they left the ahlp and were transported by rail to Bolton and New York. “The first of these movements took place on October 2 when 40 officers and seamen let Halifax on the ‘Ocean Limited’ the some morning and proceeded by wav of Moncton anti Saint John to os- ton and New York. The party were accommodated in two stand- ard sleepers. The next movement was two parties of American sca- men from Halifax on the ‘Ocean Limited’ Nov. 6 to Bolton and New York. On the name date a party of Danish seamen from New York moved from Saint John to Halifax. Other parties of tanker crewii moved from Halifax by way of Moncton and Saint John to New York. “'I'hi5 movement ceased mi soon ll the tankers were all manned by foreign seamen. It was, how- ever, a vitnl link during thevflrat. days of the war in the supply of oil and gasoline to Ifnglantt and France. "Towards the latter temher 10$ the fre zlit trnfllc moving throughout the region commenced to take on a war as- pect with munitions and supplies en route to the Atlantic seaboard for Canadian defence purpoaesand for shipment overseas.

These com- menced a few days after the cut- break of war, They ware known as ‘gholt’ trains and the utmost. secrecy was maintained with ra- gard to their movement, armed guard; made up of railway police and In some eases members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police travelling with the shipments. Siding: Incraaacd “To provide facilities for the anticipated increase in tfllfllt- due to the war, main line Sidin/ZS lie- tween Mont-ton and Halifax were increased in length, others provid- ed, and additional double track installed. This work was all per- formed as an emergency measure and was hurried to completion as fast as possible. "At the Mcncton shops addition- ional men were taken on to facili- tate the work of getting motive owei‘. car and other equipment nto shape to handle the anticl- paied increase in traffic. "The outbreak of the war found the railway in a high state of ef- ficicncy for the handling ef war and other traffic and the extra load imposed on the railway wal taken care of without any difficul- ty. There was no interference with regular traffic, either freight or passenger, and regular schedules were maintained. “In Saint John and l-lalifax,Can- adlan National Telegraphs offices were equipped with window blinds for use during blackouts. In Ed- flillflflStOll and at Monctcn heavy wire screens were placed over the windows of power plants for pro- tection. A censorship was estab- lishctl in the Halifax and Saint John offices of the C.N.T. Mes- sages were not allowed to be sent in code unless copy of the coda had been filed with the censor "The month of December 1930 witnessed the movement of the First Division of the Canadian Army Service Corps overseas. The movement was carried out lii two statics. 6.772 troops were moved in the first stage and 7,291 in the second, a total of 14,063, requiring 36 trains. Ships included in the first convoy of troops were the ‘Aquitania’, ‘Empress of Britain‘, ‘Empress of Australia’, ‘Duchess of Bedford’ and ‘Monarch of Ber- muda‘. "The movement was carried out with expedition as was also em- harkailrm at Halifax. Trains were run alongside piers and the troops were embarked from iruin io-ahip. The military authorities had set. two hours as a time limit for cmharkaiion from train to ship but it was done cn an ave-r- ag:- of about fifty minutes or an hour. This was made possible by the excellent facilities provided by the combined railway and ocean terminals. “From iii-re on Canada's war ef- fort rose in crescendo culminating in ii record-breaking: achievement. Figures are somewhat boring so I will only quote a few to give you some idea of the extent ui‘ this war effort. Impressive Figures “During the war in Europe, from the beginning of September, i939, to VE Day in May, 1945, the Canadian National Railway system. the largest single industry in the Dominion, carried on a gigantic , \vork for the people of Canada and their Allies. The extent of that iundertaklniz and the value of transportation to t h e modern worlrl, whether at war or in peace, is strikingly shown in the tonnage of freight and the number on‘ pas- sengers carried. "Freight amounted to more than 463 million tons. More thnn 144 million passengers were earned- ;1l‘t"ftii‘i' than twelve times tht". entire population of Canurli. More than four million troops were transported, requiring 6.540 spec- ial trains. Special trains for war industry workers carried 40 mil- lion passengers. Canadian Nat- ional dining cars served an aver- orze of nearly eleven thousand meals a day, a l0t.nl of neurlv Z3 million. The Companys twelve hotels accommodated nearly four million guests. More than fifteen and a half million hotel meals were $(‘l‘\'f‘fl. “Purchases made by tho Rall- way amounted in considerably more than $500,000,000. "With an average staff of 97,065. the system plilti more than a hil- lion dollars in wages durinv: the wiir period. Twenty thousand _men and women of the system enlisted with the armed forces; 582 have lost their lives; more than 100 have been decorated for gallantry. The Canadian National and its employees have subscribed $168.- 372100 to the Victory Loans and in the purchase of War Savings Certificates. ‘During the war, the system has salvaged and reclaimed more than a million tops of scrap materials. "Revenue shipments handled by the Canadian National Express a- mounted to 76.883, During the period, the number rose from l1.- 933289 in 1940 to 15,780,767 in 1944. "C.O. D.' regular and cable mon- ey orders issued h_v the EYYTPSR Company numbered 17,168,000. with the face value of $20’! million. "Since the outbreak of the war, the number of commercial icic- graph messages originating in Canada or received from the Un- iied States and handled over the Company's wires was approxim- ion of 8,777,000 railway service messages. the total was 56,498,0(li. Cables sent and received amount- ed to 2.707.000. making a grand total or messages and cables hand- led 58,206.00.

In its shops T.C.A. carried out a huge programme of military air- craft overhaul. "On the Atlantic Region from September i939 in VE Day 3,500,- 000 member; of the armed forces were moved over the line between the various training centres and overseas. The overall figure for the number ‘of troops handled from September i939 to Dec. 31st. last, which includes movem of troops returning from overs , is 4,250,000. 0f this amount, 2,932, were handled in regular trains, and 1,318,000 were in special trains. In the matter of freight the liver- age number of cars passing through Moncton for a twenty- four hour period rose from 950 to .000. "A centralized traffic control system was installed between Mcncton, 'I‘ruro and Hallfamwhich greatly facilitated the handling of traffic ovcr this portion of the Canadian National Railways, he.- ing the equivalent of double truck. On one particular occasion 22 trains were’ moving between Mont:- ton and Springhill Junction, a rlis- tance of approximately 65 miles. or a train every three miles. This facility was so important. triit it was placed on the secret lis: for a considerable time.

While the railway employee was not in uniform he was a comrade- in-arms of the _soldler, the sailor and the airman. for he put in long and arduous hours to see tlint our fighting men did not lack wcapons and munitions when they ramc to close grips with the enemy. "Of all the civilian soldiers he- hind the lines, the railway em- ployee occupied a vitally strategic place, for this was a war, more than any other war, of transpor- tation, ultimate victory depending iiuori the speed and the volume in which munitions and supplies reached the front lines. Pcaoetlaac Problems “Anrl now that; the war has been won our steps are turned to pick- ing up our peace-time activities where we left off to fight the en- emy and build up n better and more prosperous Canada and to p make a better world. “One of these. and it is on im- portant item, is the development of tourist traffic.

"That everyone shares h the benefits derived from the tourist trade is shown by studies made in this connection. A study for the year 1937 showed that motorists spent in Canada an estimated tourists hy rail, $49.- by ivoat. $16,000,000: by bus, ferry and airplane, $27,000,000. Totiii value for the year was $773.- 000000. Another study showed the tourist dollar for spending pur- poses was fliVitlPfl as follows: transportation, 20 per cent: hotels or camps, 20 per cent: retail stor- es, 25 per cent; food. 21 per rent; amusement, 8 per cent; gifts, stat- ionery, etc. 6 per ccnl. “For practical nurnoses tourist travel might he divided into sev- eral classes: short trip visits, org- anized party visits, summer resort traffic, winter sports traffic. con- vention traffic, Sportsman's traffic, inlcrprovlncial traffic.
