G. F. & A. Employees Hold
Mass Meeting and Decide
to Send Petition to Sen
atorS.
WANT DIVERSION OF
TRAFFIC STOPPED
Say Precautions For Safe
guarding Short-Lines Are
Neglected in Favor of
Government Roads.

Gathered at the knights of Pythias
hall yesterday afternoon. more than
$50 employees of the Gulf, Florida &
Alabama r. r. voted unanimously to
petition Senators Fletcher and Bank
head and representatives from West
Florida and Eastern Alabama for re-
lief for short-line railroads, and espe-
cially the G. 4. e. A.
Their specific requests are that
there be a just division of rates, a fair
allotment of cars and that the original
routing of cars be respected SO that
traffic is not diverted from non gov
ernment controlled short-Iine roads TO
the government controlled lines.
BY special request of the employees.
a special train was run over the g. F.
Il A from Kimbrough to Pensacola.
arriving here at noon yestrday. The
employees which this train brought rep
resented every branch of the service.
The mass meeting was presided over
by G. l.. Cant of Pensacola, a conduc
tor. General Manager Fraser OF the
c.. F.. az A. outlined the situation and
a petition was drawn up A committee
consisting of one member from each
department of the c. II. & A. service
will be appointed by the chairman to
forward petitions to the senators and
representatives. These petitions will
probably go FORWARD IOday. Inc
Brotherhoods will also petition congress
on the same subjct.
When the railroads were taken over
by the president he was empowered
to take over all roads and to return to
private ownership the shore lines.
Among the roads SO returned was the
Gulf, Florida e. Alabama. In relin-
gushing control of these roads, Presi-
dent Wilson recommnded to Director
General of Railroads at that time, w.
G. McAdoo, that special precautions
be taken to insure that cars be carried
over routes called for by the ship
pers and not diverted to government
controlled lines TO the detriment or the
short lines. These precautions. It is
understood, have been neglected with
the result that short lines have been
hard pressed TO keep on their feet.
The railroad employees themselves
understand this condition of affairs
and for that reason asked Mr.. Fraser
to provide a train SO that thye might
get together and take concerted action.
Following mass meeting the men
Were given a dinner at the San Carlos
and taken to the theatre as guests of
General Manager Fraser. Chief Engi-
neer Butterworth. Traffic Manager
Thacker and Master Mechanic Fftz-
