ON THE COVER

This view from the cab of a Southern Railway diesel contains a photographic forecast for our territory in 1959-rail- roads and industry working together in a continuation of the growth that has made today's South the country's showcase of economic progress.

Despite uncertain financial conditions during the year, industrial development along the lines of the Southern went ahead at a $340 million pace in 1958. Both the Southern and its territory expect to be busy in the better year 1959 promises to be.
