Other Tests

All steel is made to formula
and each lot is analysed twice.
Gears are tested for IS, 600 pounds
per tooth. Springs are tested
for 100000 vibrations. Engines
get five long and radical tests,
and the tested engines are taken
apart and Inspected.
We use a clutch-to prevent
: gear clashing which costs twice
what others cost. We use Is
roller bearings and 100 drop
forgings. We use oversize tires.
Then the cars are built slowly

exactly. There are countless

P.R.R. PROVIDES FOR
employees OFF TO WAR
Company Makes Rules That
Favor Those Who Enlist

The possibility of war with Mex
leo has led the directors of the Pom
sylvania Railroad to amend the rules
governing employment so that the
position OF any employe, together
with all advantages that may have
accrued to him in the way OF
seniority, claims to benefits. pensions.
ETC.. will be safeguarded fully, no
matter how long he may be absent
from his duties by reason of having
volunteered I'm the United States mill
tary or naval forces, or In the
National Guard.
Under former rules an employe
could be furlonged for only nine
months. An absence Of a longer
period meant the dropping of his
name from the rolls. The new rule
provides that any one who volunteers
in case Of war, or other emergency,
will be carried on the payrolls indeh-
nitely. The Voluntary Relief De-
partment has arranged that member
ship may be continued, provided the
absent employe keeps up his contri-
buttons. Full credit for the time Of
absence will be allowed in computing
pension allowance
The provisions apply not only to
the possibility Of a war with Mexico,
but to any other conflict or omer-
gency calling for military service.
