How Safety Work May
Be Made More Effective

In an interesting paper, w. ii.
Kennedy, yardmaster for the Penhsy
at Marysville, tells how the work OF
the safety committee may be made
more effective. He says in part:
Safety first work is a part of our
duties which we cannot give TOO
much consideration. 1t is work
which should not be considered by
employees as the work or duty of a
few of us to be performed by the
general or local safety committee,
but It is the duty of all to discover
and correct all bad conditions and
practices.
Each employe should make him
self a committee of one; he should
interest himself in this great work
for his own personal protection ana
benefit and for that of his fellow
workmen. When he sees a condl-
ton which in his opinion is detrl-
mental to the safety of himself ana
others, even if it has existed for a
long time. he should not pass II by
thinking there is no use mentlon-
ing it as it has been that way Tor
some time, but should bring II 10
the attention of the chairman or one
of the members of the safety COM
mittee. Or, should he know or
practice of another employe which
is liable to endanscr himself or 9TH
ers. he should be particular to can
his sttentioE to it and should not
cS"sider that by calling his alter
tlcn to it once that he has fulfilled
his duty, but should also notify
other members of his crew so that
they also max -,i:t out to the OF
fender the danger to himself ana
others by continuing it.
''In my opinion there is only one
answer to this-the cooperation OF
each and every employe in this
work. 1t occurs quite often that
when a member of some local COM
mittee calls the attention of some
one in connection with danger
Gus practice that the men do not
take it in the spirit which they
should and too often treat II with
Indifference.
If we could get each en,ploye
to spend a little time in thought on
safety first work and, would take
into consideration the interest taken
;n this work by the officials and the
amount of money expended each
year by the PENNSYLVANIA Railroad
Company, for safety devices ard
equipment in the interest ana lot
the protection of the public ana
their employees against, personal IN
iury they would all be working IN
the interest of safety first move
ment and the committee work would
be more effective, as we would all
be united in this great cause

LEAD TO CONFLICT

Pittsburg, Kan, April 5--"Leagues

declared in an address at the unveil-

"a league in city or township,
county or state or nation, with the
duty of adjusting differences that
might arise between men or political
subdivisions of people. would provoke
rather than prevent riot or war, ne

ference when they are not guided by
the letter of the law as laid down in
constitutions and statutes. 1 call at
stention to the important fact that on
the eleventh of November last Marshal
sFoch presented to Germany the terms
of an armistice which Germany read
lily signed.
"Ihe terms were comprehensive on
m ost of the questions involved in the
war and provided temporarily for ty-
ing the hands of Germany and her
allies. Peace commissioners represent
ing the United States and the allies
have been at work now nearly five
months trying to agree among them
selves on terms of formal peace
with Germany and her allies. The
conditions today are far less hopeful
than they were the day the peace
commissioners met in Paris.

ishments have not been agreed upon
