Annual rumors that the Pennsylva-
MIA railroad would ask for license
for the local station restaurant are
again af1oat.
In their early denial the officials are
more vigorous than ever. They call
attention to the recent announcement
that licensed places at the Philadel-
phia and New York terminals would
be eliminated. 1t is further stated
that efforts will be made to abolish all
booze places throughout the Pennsyl-
Vania system.
The fight against rum on the Penn
sylvania lines started in 1910 when
men were disciplined for drinking
Two years later the company abolish
ed rum from all trains. on May /.
1914, the licensed saloon at Pittsburgh
was abolished. Now the famous hole
in the WALL at Broad street station
will be wiped out. This license is
held by private individual; in New
York the company has a license
In the entire year of 1913. out of
7S4,675 observations made of 125,0O0
employees, only 15S cases were re-
ported where disciplinary action was
taken in connection with the men
touching liquor. Punishment ranged
all the way from reprimand to dis
missal. In February last year 1926
observations of the employees were
made, without one single booze case
being reported.

Sir Joseph Bricker, the new sui
tan, is a past commander and senior
trustee in Baldwin commandry. Sir
Arthur II. Roberts, past commander,
and Sir Charles Fl. Beidel, past COM

entirely provide for a relief fund.
