DINING CAR EMPLOYEES SHALL
BE CLEAN AND HEALTHY
II Incapacitated, Must Get Health
Certificate Before Returning to
Work.

Railroad men who make Pocatello
their headquarters are watching with
interest an experiment which the Penn
sylvania road will initiate, says the
Pocatello Chronicle. In the future NO
person with even tendency to COM
municable disease will be employed in
the dining car or restaurant service OF
the Pennsylvania lines. 1t is said
other roads will follow suit, including
the Northern Pacific, Milwaukee and
Oregon Short Line.
To insure against any person suffer-
ing from communicable disease work
ing in any capacity about the railroad
dining cars or RESTAURANTS, tIio4e Is :.
be quarterly physical examination
of every employe who has anything to
do with the preparation of serving Of
food.
kitchen helpers, cooks and waters,
both white and black, will be obliged
to undergo examination every three
months, and that only 100 per cent
report on their physical condition will
permit their remaining in the service.
If dining car or restaurant en-
ploye becomes disabled through any
cause, he will not be permitted to re-
turn to work until he receives a "cer-
tificate of ability" from one of the
company's physicians.
While those suffering from tuber-
culosis eye or skin diseases or any
other communicable disease, will not
be employed in any capacity where
they might come in contact with the
food the further precaution will he ia
ken by the companies of barring them
from employment in places where lin
ems or tableware are kept.
1t is said of the Pennsylvania SER
vice that in order to surround it with
every possible safeguard, the company
has provided at layover points, spe-
cial lodgings for dining car stewards,
walters and cooks. The lodgings will
be equipped with clean linen and beds
and every sanitary protection will be
afforded.
Not only will the Northern Pacific,
Milwaukee and Oregon Short Line
adopt these systems in the event the
Pennsylvania finds them successful, it
is said, but it is said other roads
throughout the country will probably
fall in line.
