cnr during 1934 the average number of persons employed by canadian national railways was 74774 and the wages paid them came to almost one hundred million dollars this represented both as to number employed and amount of payroll an advance over 1933 and practically the whole increase in personnel was due to reemployment of those whose services had previously been dispensed with owing to lack of business the average mileage of road operated in 1934 was 23676 miles making canadian national railways the largest single railway system in the western hemisphere in 1934 the total freight transported by canadian national railways amounted to 44719477 tons an increase of eighteen per cent over the previous year the average haul of freight was 326 miles the value of this freight is not ascertainable but it must run into many hundred millions of dollars and comprising all kinds of necessities and luxuries contributed to the welfare and happiness of every man woman and child in the dominion canadian national railways carried over 10000000 passengers during 1934 this was also an increase over 1933 these paid in fares 16331299 or an average of 162 per passenger with an average journey of seventyone and threequarter miles these figures without embellishment or amplification show the vastness of the public services rendered by canadian national railways the system is conducted on as economical a scale as is consistent with the highest standards of railway operation the improvement in business in 1934 over the previous year enabled more people to be employed more wages to be paid more service to be rendered also more money was available to be spent among canadian producers and canadian merchants a continuation of this improvement in our business will carry on and enlarge these good results the whole country will benefit this year canadian national railways is cooperating in an extensive way in the national movement to diminish unemployment and to restore industrial activity to help banish the depression and bring better times for everyone canadian national railways feels justified in asking for your cooperation a greater use by canadian citizens of the facilities offered by this system transportation express telegraphs hotels will materially help not only us but all canada and you will receive full value for every dollar spent during the present
