NEW SANTA FE RECORD MADE.
Only Two Engine Failures on Okla
homa Division in June.

Arkansas City, July 5.-There were
only two engine failures on the Okla
homa division of the Santa Fe in the
month of June. Neither was respon-
sibIe to the boiler department, but
happened in the machinery and both
failures were unavoidable. This is
probably the best record known of on
the entire system. 1t is due to the
team work that is in constant prac-
tice by the employees of the Santa Fe
shops in Arkansas City.
In April and June there were no
boiler failures charged to the Okla
homa division, and this is a brilliant
piece of work that is rarely accom-
plished on any division of the Santa
Fe, if it is at all accomplished.
