No Drinking In Work Hours.

The Lehigh Valley Railroud has
served notice to it's employees
t7at they must totally ab stain
from alcoholic drinks or leave the
service of that company. We
presume this does NOS mean that
the employees of that railroad will
be req uired to join temperance
societies aud furnisA documens
tarv evidence that they never
under any circumstances touch
a drop any Intoxicating beverage
for that would be impracticable.
1t probably means that an EN-"
ploya who is known to drink,
even if never discovered under
1.-The influence of liquor while on
duty, will be promptly dismissed
as a mau who cannot be trusted
with the safety of the travelling
public.
Although the order, as badly
stated, may seem to trench On
Individual liberty rather more
than is usual in a free country,
the regulation will no doubt be
found to contend that such indul-
geuce should be strictly confined
10 hours of rest, recreation and
social intercourse, and that the
relaxation caused by such lndul'
gence is injurious during hours
of 1abour.
A single drink may tend to less
en- the tension and wide.awake at
tention imperatively necessary
in every railroad employe.
It is not unlikely that the
other railroads of the country
will follow the example of the
Lehigh Valley, and should they
do so, it is not too much to say
that the numb Der of railroad acct
d ents will thereby be consider
daily reduced.
