The Outlook For The Future

The Outlook For The Future.

I feel justified in taking a hopeful outlook regarding the future. The increase in the flocks of sheep, the remarkable expansion in the quantity of fertilizers distributed to farmers, the tendency towards stabilization of prices for practically page 7 all our primary products at a reasonable level, and the general improved financial position of the Dominion, promise for the coming season a record in the volume and the value of production.

There is every reason to believe that the Railways will share largely in this, and be called upon to handle very heavy traffic under somewhat difficult conditions, inasmuch as many of our improved transport facilities now being provided will not be completed and available for use for some time.

I have every confidence, however, in the capacity of all branches of the service to meet the situation and enable the Department to render the maximum of service to the users of the Railways and the Dominion as a whole.
