Daniel Willard, vice president of the
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy, the
Colorado and Southern, and the Colo-
rado Springs and Cripple Creek District
railway, and president of the Colorado
Midland, has been elected president of
the Baltimore and Ohio, succeeding Os-
car G. Murray, who has been elected
chairman of the board. Mr. Willard be-
gan his railway career at the bottom.
He was born in North Hartland, Va., and
on January 28, 1910, he will be 49 years
old. When he was 18 he began railway
work as a track laborer on the Cen-
tral Vermont. He was later fireman and
locomotive engineman on the Passumpslc
railroad,- now a part of the Boston and
Maine, and on the Lake Shore and Michi-
gan Southern.
He got his real start, however, on the
Minneapolis, St. Paul and Sault Ste.
Marie. He got work as a brakeman on
this road in 1884 and remained in its
employ as brakeman, Conductor, round-
house engineman, trainmaster, assistant
superintendent and superintendent of the
Wisconsin and the Peninsular divisions
until 1899.
While he was on the "Soo" he formed
a friendship which has had a strong in-
fluence on his subsequent career. This
was with Frederick D. Underwood. Like
Mr. Willard, Mr. Underwood started at
the bottom. In 1886 he had become gen-
eral manager of the Minneapolis and Pa-
cific, and when this road became a part
of the Minneapolis, St. Paul and Sault

Are We to Have a South Pole Con-
troversy ?
Captain Robert Falcon Scott is the Brit-
l;»h naval officer who was at the head
of the National Antarctic expedition of
1900, and will command the English South
Pole expedition which starts next Au-
gust. He has refused to accept either tha
good ship Roosevelt or any American sub-
scriptions to his fund, but he proposes
that there shall be a friendly race be-
tween an American party starting from
Cape TTorn and the British expedition
Uuui New Zealand.
Daniel Willard.
Ste. Marie he became general manager
of the latter property. Meantime, Mr.
Willard had come under his observation
and had been singled out as especially
deserving of confidence. When Under-
wood went to the Baltimore and Ohio In
1899 as general manager he took Willard
with him as assistant general manager,
and during the month of May, 1901, Wil-
lard was acting general manager. Two
years later, when Mr. Underwood became
president of the Erie, Mr. Willard went
to the Erie with him as assistant to the
president. Mr. Willard subsequently be-
came third vice president and then first
vice president and general manager of the
Erie.
Nature gave Mr. Willard unusual abil-
ity and tremendous energy. He is one
or the most indefatigable workers in
the railway business. He not only works
hard, but he works fast. These natural
endowments alone would not have put
him where he is, but in addition to hav-
ing ability and energy he has had an
extraordinary taste for serious study. He
has been a student all his life. Few
active business men have read so many
books on economic and kindred subjects.
It will be noted that during his rail-
way career he has had experience in the
track and the motive power departments
as well as in the operating department.
This has made him an all round oper-
ating- man, and, taken in connection with
the large knowledge he has acquired by
study, makes him an extraordinarily
strong railway executive. One way that
Mr. Willard has shown his intelligence
and breadth in recent years has been by
frankly recognizing that the anti-railway
agitation has not^ been without cause and
in choosing means for stopping it. He
has welcomed fair and intelligent criti-
cism of the Burlington from every source.
He has had newspaper and all other
kinds of criticism sent to the general of-
fice in Chicago, and has had the criti-
cised conditions systematically studied
with a view either to showing the critics
that their complaints were unjustifiable
or to removing the grounds for com-
plaints. He has frankly recognized the
fact that public sentiment is more power-
ful than any corporation or number of
corporations and has insisted that the
railways should adopt the policy of edu-
cating rather than opposing it.
Mr. Willard was elected second vice
p esident of the Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy in January, 1904. Under his ad-
ministration a second track has been
nearly completed between Chicago and
Omaha, a good deal of second track has
been built elsewhere, and various ex-
tensions have been made. The cost of
Improvements has been as high as $15.-
000,OW in a year. Mr. Willard was made
vice president of the Colorado and South-
ern and subsidiary lines and president of
the Colorado Midland when tne Burling-
ton acquired control of these properties
from the Hawley interests. He comes to
the Baltimore and Ohio at a time when
this company has need of a thoroughly
aggressive management to help it meet
the competition in the soft coal business.
His past record indicates that he is a
man likely to give the Baltimore and Ohio
such a management.
