new LAW LIMITS
RAILROAD PASSES
En- npIoyes' Families May Lose
Privileges.
EFFECTIVE FIRST OF YEAR
Public Utilities Act In Pennsylvania
Forbids Free Transportation to All
But Employees of Railroads.

Unless some railroad employe or
labor union is able to obtain a favor
able Interpretation from the public
serv ce commission or from the
courts of a law passed by the last
Pennsylvania legislature, tho wives
and other members OF families OF rail-
road officials and employees will lose
the free passes they have so long en-
joyed, after Jan. l, when the law goes
into effect.
The knowledge that the act forbids
the railroads or any other common
carrier" engaged In the transportation
| business for profit, to Issue passes to
| the wives, children and other depend
ents of employees, has not heretofore
spread to the latter. The information
Is expected to result in a loud protest
by the employees, whose families have
been enjoying the privileges OF free
transportation.
The railroads of the state have been
liberal in granting passes to officers
and employees, their wives, children
and other relatives wholly dependent
on them for support and living in the
same house. Under the new act such
transportation could be granted by the
railroad only II it desires to assume
the risk of prosecution for violation CT
the law and of paying a fine OF $500
for each otfense.
A railroad Official said that if the
section Of the act prohibiting the 1881
ance OF passes except to officers and
| employees had become known pending
consideration Of the bill in tho lsgisla,
ture, there would have been howl
Of protest" by railroad men from
every section Of the state He predict
ed that the information will act like
q bombshell" when it reaches railroad
! employees.
There is a provision of the constitu-
tion Of Pennsylvania, however. which
has long prohibited the issuance OF
| passes to others than officers and sn'
ployes OF transportation compaaie.
Either they have ignored the const'tL
ton in this respect, have not had Il
called to their attention, or 1t has not
been enforced. for the fact remains
| that passes have bcen and are still
| issued to the families OF railroad eff,
cials and employees.
While neither the constitution nor
| the public utilities act regarding pass
es states that they shall not be issued
| to the families of officers or employees.
the legislation in both cases specltec
| that the free transportation shall be
granted only to officers and employee
! Thus the families and other relatives
| dependent on the officers or enployes
for a livelihood, are shut OF from
passes under the law.
There are 10000 Pennsylvants
railroad employees eAst Of Pittsburgh
| who will be unable to obtain passes
for wives. children or other depend
ents when the act becomes elective.
The Philadelphia & Reading has 10000
employees in the state, and the Baltl'
more & Ohio railroad employees, num-
bering about 10000 in Pennsylvania,
also will be denied pass privileges ex'
cept for themselves.

Non.Partisan Ballot Law Void.

The act OF June 2. 1918, containing
the non-partisan ballot feature relative
to third class cities, was declared un-
constitutional in an opinion handed
down by Judge John Q. Van Swear
niger In Uniontown. Pa.
The Judge also declared that the
provision relative to- changing Con.
nellsvile from borough to a third
class city Is constitutional and direct
ed that az election be held this fall
for city officers.
The opinion of the court said that
the non-partisan feature was unconsti-
tutonal on the ground that the exer-
else Of the election franchise Is not
within the purposes by which cities
may be classified. and that II a spe-
ciai method OF nominating and elect
Ing officers in third class cities may be
maintained under the constitution,
then a different method may also be
used in first class cities, a different
one In boroughs, in townships and in
the state, which the court said was un-
constitutional.
