Is A HARD WINTER
FOR RAILROAD MEN

The hardest winter of many years is
now being combatted every day by the
employees and road men Of the Penn
sylvania railroad company. The six
teen hour limit has resulted in scores
of crews lying at sidings until the
eight hour rest period is up before
again starting on their trips. and the
overtime for the month of January this
year was one Of the heaviest In years.
At one time eight crews were stalled
on the north and south divisions Of the
third divisions waiting until their eight
hours OF rest were up, and the cold
spell which il now on again is having
a similar effect on the road.
Short stops may be accomplished.
but IL q train stops for any appre-
ciable length of time: the brakes freeze
up. Many of the trainmen have suf-
fered frosen hands. feet and faces
from the intense cold.
The passenger service IL not ma
terially impaired. but the freight serv.
ice Is demoralized by q cold siege
which causes the freight to pile up
on the crews. who are unable to haul
long trains. 90.
