the directors of the canadian ikatipnal system our objective in- 1943 as in other waryears was to place the fullstrength ofour man power and- facilities behind the war effort of the united nations to this end all energies have been directed the requirements of the armed forces of industry and agriculture for transport and other services have been met in all of the nine provinces of the dominion and in the import- ant sections of the united states in which we operate record traffic these demands were greater than ever before the traffic moved in 1943 being 173 greater than in 1942 the previous peak war year and 447 greater than in- 1928 the peak peace year freight traffic in 1943 was more than double that of 1939 and passenger traffic four times that of 1939 despite this the very

railway proving again that it can handle an immense volume of business economically as well as expeditiously after providing from revenue for all oper ating expenses including deferred mainte nance depreciation amortization of defence projects and reserve for inventories and also a reserve for pension contracts taxes interest on funded debt and government loans the surplus paid in cash to the government was 35639412 operating efficiency the operating ratio for the year was 7364 an alltime record as compared with 7693 in 1942 and 8199 in the peak peace year of 1928 it is interesting to note that the vastly increased war traffic in 1943 was handled with 166 fewer locomotives 154 fewer freight cars and 51 more passenger cars than was the traffic of 1917 the fourth year of the last world war special services provided the company was honoured in being selected to provide extensive train and other services for rime minister churchill president roose velt and madam chiang kaishek during their visits to canada in 1943 postwar changing conditions will call for new methods of railway operation and new types of service and there must needs be a continuing search forjmproyement in all aspectsof the railway industry in view of this the company has in hand a programme of research this pro gramme in addition to considering ways and means of improving service and efficiency of operation also encompasses the problems of postwar reconstruction and rehabilitation the officersr ahd employees in all departments of the system have worked hard and loyally to cope with increased responsibilities arising out of the war and the directors record their appreciation and thanks the traditional harmonious relations between management and employees were maintained throughout the year
