A new policy Of the Atchison, To-

will be to give special consideration
TO ex-service men in the employment
OF new workers, according to an an
nouncement by w b. Storey, presi-
dent.
Further" Mr.. Storey says. "if it
becomes necessary to reduce forces
II would seem desirable. other things
being equal. to give the ex-service
men preference, and in this way give
practical expression TO our apprecia-
ton OF what these men have done for
us"
Another Santa he policy, which, al
though not new, has been emphasized
since the return of the railroads to
governmental control, is to promote
from the ranks. The Santa Fe is able
TO find in its own organization men
for nearly any position that may be
open, and for the exceptions there
must be a controlling reason which
will.have careful scrutiny.
