EMPLOYERS LIABILITY

recommendation in my Message to
the Fifty-eighth Congress, at its sec;

the appointment of a commission TO
make a comprehensive study of en-

enactment of a wise and constltu-

plicable to all industries within the
scope of the Federal power. ] hope

HOURS OF LABOR
OF RAILROAD EMPL OYEES

The excessive hours Of labor to
which railroad employees in train
service are in many cases subjected
is also a matter which may well en-
gage the serious attention of the
Congress. The strain. both mental
and physical, upon those who are
engaged in the movement AND opera
ton of railroad trains under modern
conditions is perhaps greater than
that which exists in any other IN
dustrv. and i there are any reasons
for limiting by law. the hours of
labor in any employment. they GER
tainly apply with peculiar force to
the employment of those upon whose
vigilance and alertness in the per
formance of their duties the safety
of all who travel by rail depends.
