to prevent the repeal of the employees
liability act which was passed by the
last session of congress and which the
eastern railroads are now seeking to
have repealed.
The four brotherhoods represented
on the o. II. & NJ, including the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers

Order of Railway Conductors and
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen
through special committees will pre-
pare protests against the repeal of
the law and will contribute toward the
expense of permanent lobby which
will be maintained in Washington to
work against the efforts to repeal It.
The eastern railroads have begun
their campaign for the repeal of the
law through a number of publicity
bureaus, and the employees will be
equally alert.
Thc law which the railroads object
to. is Known as the employers liabil-
ity act, and hollis the railroad compa-
nies liable for accidents which hap
pen through neglect incompetence
poor machinery, mistakes of other en-
ployes and other causes which might
be prevented by better management.
A similar law is in effect in Oregon
Wisconsin, Iowa and number of pro-
gressive states, and the railroads pre-
fer to have the federal law repealed
in order that states may deal with
railroad liabilities individually. All
the labor unions of the country will
join in the effort to keep the federal
law on the books.
