Railroad Age Limit Rule a Dead
Letter

The unsupplied demand for workers
is probably the first reason for the re
cent adjustment by several industrial
institutions Of the 80 years age limit.
But this change in policy also indicates
the passing away Of the senseless craze
for young men simpy because they are
young
The railroads have tried the expert
ment and have discovered that the man
under 80, when taken "a new en- /;
ploye, does not necessarily prove 10 be
more efficient workman than the
older man. Railroad wrecks were not
done away with by the establishment
of the age limit; youth proved no
guarantee against recklessness and in
difference to duty and the very young
men were far less efficient in large
