day. at Centerville as the guests of
Center Grange. adopted resolutions
calling upon the Federal, State and
city authorities and the public in gem
eraI to exercise greater vigilance in
the enforcement of the prohibition
laws, because it was pointed out that
violations along this line, the grangers
believe. have resulted in many Of the
automobile accidents that have oc
CURED along the public highways.
II was the opinion of many of the
grangers that the death of Miss
Amanda Wilson, who was struck and
instantly killed by an automobile along
the kennett turnpike several weeks
ago, was due to the fact that the per-
son operating that machine was in
toxicated. The death of Miss Wilson
was discussed. 1t was claimed that

TINE AGREEMENTS
Punching Time Clock Cost the
Roads So, AS, ,658 in -Four
Months Probers Told.
PIECE WORKERS Raped

BY Associated Press TO Every Evening
Washington, June 3.--Provistons ~
the national agreements placed in ef-
feet during government control which
required "the railroads 10 allow efn-
ployes one hour extra pay each week
for punching the clock, regardless Of
the number of hours actually worked,
cost the railroads 6,4i5. .e5S during the
first six months of last year. II. r..
Whittier, of Philadelphia, chairman Of
the conference committee Of manag-
ers, told Senate investigating COM
|nittee today.
An order issued by the director
general in July. 1918, guaranteeing to
men employed on piece work "the
|same minimum hourly rate as those
of hourly workers resulted ir a de-
GREASE ranging from 10 TO 40 per cent
in the output of piece work men,
Mr.. White said, adding:
This falling off in production be-
|came uniformly noticeable when II
was known by the piece workers that
they would receive no increases bur
We're guaranteed only the minimum
hourly rate.
Comparisons between the piece
work basis and hourly basis were
maintained by the roads until Febru-
airy. 1919, when the arrangements
were prohibited by the railroad ad-
ministration from continuing such
comparisons"
Provisions Of the national agree
ments permitting the employment as
car repairers OF only those men who
have served an apprenticeship in the
car department or who had four years
practical experience car work. Mr..
Whittier said. results IN a waste Of
skill and an unnecessary increase in
the cost of such repairs"
"The rule is not consistent or prae-
tical.' he contended. and draws a line
around car work which prevents the
employment Of any man who has had
experience in analogous work. The
railroads should have the privilege Of
employing for the car department, up
hoIsterers, painters. pattern makers.
etc, men who have had experience.
irrespective Of where acquired. even
though they have not previously had
four years experience on car work.
There is no Justification whatever for
such a rule in connection with car
work"

INJURY MAY COST
MANS RIGHT LIMB
Accident Board Given Details
of Mishap to Henry Homie
of New Castle.

A case tha. may involve the loss Of
a mans leg was heard By the MEM
bers Of the Industrial Accident Board
today. Henry Homie, q years old,
of New Castle, is seeking compensa-
and the details of the case have proven
interesting TO the medical profession
Last November. the day before
Thanksgiving, Homie, who was en-
ployed by the Eastern Malleable Iron
Co. was working about an annealing
pot. For some undetermined reason the
chain holding the pot slipped and the
next thing Homie knows. he was being
cared for in the first aid unit of the
plant. He found that he had a bruise
on his forehead. a laceration OF the
hand, but aside from that knew of
no other hurt. Whether the chain
holding the pot struck him, or
whether it was the pot itself that hit
him Homie does not know.
The next morning. however. he felt
a peculiar ache in his right foot,
like rheumatism" he remarked TO
his wife. He applied well known
liniment, but the trouble grew and
three months later had developed into
a serious ailment. The foot is now
affected in gangrenous way and
physicians say that his limb from the
knee down is sick" Whether this
will mean the amputation Of the leg
at the knee is something the doctors
will have To decide.
Another case 10 be heard today is
that of Michael Morrison of New York
City. Morrison was hurt in eave-in
at Claymont. while working for the
Westinghouse. Church and Kerr Com-
pany. in July, 1918. lie has been re-
ceiving compensation and has $3.50
