eye tests has been u which is now
in controversy at the committee
meeting between the engineers and

The engineers believe the tests are
TOO rigorous for the reason that they

different shades of green and red
when nothing but the cardinal colors
are used in railroad signaling. 1t is
one Of the demands of the men that
these tests be modified. The tiremen
who tailed say obey never thought
