Here is something that sounds pretty
Tough on the railway postal clerks. who
do not walk on plush at any time, and
railway mail clerks are aroused over
the Post Office Department ruling,
which not only holds them responsible
for injuries to persons struck by mail
bags thrown off at stations from NOV
ing trains, but also imposes fine in
Hddition. The clerks sag 1t is unfair to
hold them responsible, especially be-
cause the Government has been "crimi-
pally slow" in providing a safe means of
Eelivery of mail from moving trains.
In a damage case tried by jury in
Ohio recently the clerk compromised by
paying $500 to person struck by a
pouch. Railroads declare they will hold
the clerks strictly responsible for such
accidents.
