MANY RAILWAY HEADS
WORKED LONG HOURS
Conditions Even Worse Than Those
Scored by BrotheThoods,
It Is Claimed.

Many of the railroad presidents now
opposing the demands of the employees
have themselves labored for long
hours under conditions even worse
than those which the brotherhood
leaders inveigh against. according to
some sideIights thrown upon yester-
days hearing before the interstate
commerce committee of the Senate.
President Underwood of the Erie
system took copious notes during the
hearing, some of which were designed
to throw X-ray on the statements
of the brotherhood spokesman. After
A. b. Garretson, president of the Order
of Railway Conductors. had told of
what he regarded as inhuman working
conditions before the organization be-
came strong. Mr.. Underwood wrote:
Il was both a brakeman and con-
ductor on the trip basis and l have
been on duty as long as l could stand
up. Sometimes it was SeVenty-two o
hours, but always it was the unwritten
law that man got rest when he
asked for it,
After several labor leaders had de-
the flag as any one, Mr.. Underwood
made this notation:
There is not in the National Guard
on the border single engineer, fire
man, conductor, or trainman. The lead
ers would fire man out of the broth
erhoods if he joined the National
Guard"
Another note was:
"The whole plan is to get more
money than they get now and to make
more jobs for more men, in order that
the unions be kept up to full strength"
