HOWAT IN new APPEAL
Mine Cars Attorneys Want Anti
Strike Injunction Wiped Off Records.

Pittsburg, Kan. April 25.-Attor-
neys for Alexander Howat and other
Kansas miners, union officials have
served notice of an appeal to the su-
preme cour: of Kansas from the in
junction issued against them to pre-
vent the calling of strikes in the Kan
sas coal field, it was announced today.
The injunction from which the ap-
peal is taken was issued last fall by
Judge A. ]. Curran of the Crawford
county district court.
A motion for a new hearing was
overruled by Judge Curran last No
yember. That Howat and the other
officials never had appeal from the
injunction decision was commented
upon by Judge Curran, when he
found Howat guilty of contempt a
second time early this month.

DINING CAR PRICES DOWN
Union Pacific Reduces Charges 10 to
25 Per Cent.

Reductions in prices on Union Pa
cific dining cars of from 10 to 25 per
cent are claimed in the current issue
of the Union Pacific Bulletin.
The account of the reduction points
out that NEARLY 80 per cent of the
cost of serving the average meal goes
for v Lges, linen and other items than
food. only about 10 per cent of the
whole remaining to pay for the food.
1t is evident that the cost of food is
the minor consideration and that the
decrease in this expense leaves small
room for reduction in dining car
prices.'

Whn Work was Let out.

WHY w a0 ASCL OuNs
1.-THE situation which necessitated
letting out equipment repair work to
outside concerns was the following:
1. On March 1, 1920. all available
shop space on the Pennsylvania rail-
road was filled with locomotives
undergoing repairs; 749 locomotives
were cut of service awaiting heavy re-
pairs, and about 654 more were under
going repairs requiring more than
twenty-four hours work. The number
of bad order freight cars under and
awaiting repairs on that date was
more than $4,000.
90. At the same time the Pennsyl-
vania railroads own shops were work
ing to their utmost capacity, turning
out an average of 500 repaired loco
motives and 141,0OO repaired freight
cars month. 1t was evident that a
large part of the railroads shop facili-
ties and available working force would
be required to take care of equipment
in service on March /, 1920. All the
man-power obtainable was being used
on this work and the recent curtail-
ment of working forces was not put
into effect until after this situation
had been remedied and then only on
account of a falling off in business.
''3. Aside from the fact that the
capacity of the Pennsylvania shops
and the available working forces were
the condition of the equipment, traffic
demands upon the railroad necessi-
tated getting outside assistance. Con-
gestion at Pittsburgh was serious: tons
of steel were being placed on the
ground with no cars available to move
it; abnormal quantities of goods await
ing shipment were piled up and the
supply of cars. not only for general
freight business but to the coal regions
in particular, was entirely inadequate
"4. The only immediate remedy was
to get every available car and locomo-
vania's share of the country's busi-
ness.
Therefore. this company accepted
such contracts as the United States
railroad administration had made and
contracts of its own on which S26 cars
same as the costs on the United States
Outside Assistance Essential.
"Outside shop assistance was es-
sential but it was kept down to a
minimum. The 200 locomotives re-
paired under contract by the Baldwin
Locomotive works required the heavi-
est repairs and sending them outside,
therefore. afforded the railroad shops
greater capacity to handle more To-
comotives and return them to service
more quickly.
ITO summarize:
THE situation confronting the
:, Pennsylvania railroad. as we'll as

We Are Showing 1t for the First Time

Only within the Hudson organization
was such development possible. Its
engineers, for the most part, the same
personnel responsible for all previous
Hudsons, have had unequaled oppor-
tunities.
Every car built in those years became
a guide to future advancement. Every
endurance test revealed new ways to
improvement. Every model suggested a
simpler, more beautiful car. The ex-
perience of every owner was an influ-
ence toward perfection.
1t created new standards of beauty.
Each body type is famous for good looks
and the completeness of every detail.
The new Hudson Super-Six is the full
fillment of the promise of those ILL., goo
cars now in service.

Which Ii Is KnOUn

Each year has seen the emphasis of
some new quality in the Hudson Super
Six. Six years ago, when new, it was
the 1870 greater horsepower without
increase of motor size or sacrifice of
simplicity that attracted.
Some thought such power would prove
destructive and so many famous tests
were made to prove endurance.
Every one recalls how Hudson stock
cars made new records for speed. Among
them 1919 miles in "a hours.
