In submitting to the House the re-
port of the Eight-Hour Commission,
Chairman George W. Cocktails sums
up for and against the practicability
of the eight-hour day in the railroad
service. 1t is practicable now in the
wards. Working actual eight-hour
shifts in moving trains is not prac-
ticable now, and the practical substi-
tute for it is to pay for an eight-hour
day with extra pay for overtime. The
document necessary to support this
conclusion is so formidable that no
one in the House may ever read as
much as 10 per cent Of it.
