With the seating of Truman H.
Newberry as Senator from Michigan,
the malodorous Newberry case nov
goes to the people on appeal, and
as predicted by Chairman Cordel'
Hull of the Democratic National
Committee, ''the blistering facts OF
this national scandal will become
burning issues in the states and in
the nation"
The main question before the
Senate in the Newberry case was
''Are seats in the United States Sen
ate for sale?"
The Republican majority, after
three years of cool elaboration, has
answered in the affirmative.
The main question now before the
people in the Newberry case is:
"Shall the people condone the act of
a Republican majority of the Senate
Of putting a Pay AS You Enter
sign over the Senate chamber"
OF the 46 Republicans who voted
to seat Newberry, giving him five
majority, 13-fatal number-are UP
for reelection this fall. Hiram
Johnson, who was absent, and there
fore didn't vote, but showed up i'm
mediately afterward, is also one OF
those whose term expires March 4,
1928. All of them except those in
hopelessly Republican states, will
have much explaining to do, but
those who will find it hardest to try
to reconcile their pretensions with
their votes for Newberry will be
Kellogg of Minnesota. McCumber of
North Dakota and Poindexter of
Washington, who come from states
which can reasonably be expected to
show their disapproval of the meth
DDS used to elect Newberry.

ASK REPEAL Of
FULL CREW LAW
POINT OUT UNNECESSARY BUR.
DEN ON COMPANIES oPERAT-
ING IN MARYLAND AND
THE PUBLIC.

Annapolis, Md.--In the State Senate
Mr.. Mitchell has introduced Bill
to repeal the so-called full crew law,
which was referred to the committee
ON judicial proceedings and arrange
ments, will be made at an early date
for hearing on the measure. Pres
ident Broening Of the Baltimore Fed
Grafton Of Labor and his colleagues
are already on the scene to oppose the
enactment
Quires the railroads to man all freight
trains Of thirty or more cars with six
men, / engineer, ! fireman, con-
ductor and brakemen, one of the last
being designated as fagman though
really assigned to the duties OF
brakeman. The railroads claim that
this crew comprises one more brake
man than they need. 1t effects the
Baltimore & Ohio, the Pennsylvania
and the Western Maryland Railroad
companies, which operate in Maryland.
The Norfolk and Western and the
Philadelphia and Reading Railroad
companies also come within the pro-
visions Of the law, though not to the
same extent as the other roads. The
object Of the repeal bill Is to effect econ
omy in the management Of railroad
property. During the last ten years
when the law has been in active effect
1t has cost the Baltimore & Ohio, the
Pennsylvania and the Western Mary
land Railroad companies about ST.
500 900. In 1919 the cost of $314,904;
in 1920, $4S6,S90 and in 1921 "a year
Of business depression) $367,2S2,
total of $1.179,476.
The railroad arrangements declare
that the employment Of this useless
brakeman Is an unnecessary burden,
the cost ultimately falling on the pub
lie. They further point to the fact that
the Federal Government requires auto
couplers and air brakes on all cars and
prohibits the use of hand brakes on
trains. This they claim makes unnec-
essary third brakeman. They also
say that they are fully competent to
decide the number of brakemen to be
employed. Indeed they say they FIRE.
quently employ extra brakemen In
cases in which the operating condi.
tons require this employment. They
also say that this unnecessary burden
leads to high passenger and freight
rates, in which the public is vitality in.
terested 1t is not proposed, 1t Is
claimed, to add to unemployment by
dispensing with the services OF the
surplus brakemen. Repeal Of the law,
they say. does not mean more unem.
ployment, but 1t means transfer Of
men from useless to useful Occupa-
tons in other departments. where the
money can be more proftably en-
ployed in the repair of locomotives,
tracks, and other essential operations.
Pennsylvania and Indiana have al.
ready repealed law similar to that
which the Maryland Legislature is
asked to repeal West Virginia de-
feated proposed similar bill in 1921.
Delaware and Virginia have no such
laws. The railroad arrangements there
fore point to the fact that Maryland
stands alone in this territory as the
only State which has regulation that
they claim effects the movement of
trains between States.
One argument to be urged in favor
Of the cepealer Ia that freight crews do
not make up trains in the switch
yards.

Railroads Ask Re-
peal of Burden
some Law
SO-CALLED FULL CREW REG
ULATION is COSTLY TO
THE PUBLIC
TO THE GENERAL ASSEM-
BLY, OF MARYLAND:

TO THE GENERAL ASSEM-
BLY, OF MARYLAND:
The undersigned Railroad Com
panies, all operating in the State
of Maryland, join in petition to
your honorable body to act favor
ably on Senate Bill No. IA intro
duced by Hon. Walter Mitchell
wnich repeats the so-called full
crew law enacted in 1908. This
burdensome and wholly unneces-
sary law requires railroads to
man all freight trains of 80 or
more cars with crews Of six men;
viz: | Engineer, l Fireman, ] Con-
ductor and 2 Brakemen and l
Flagman e Brakemen). This
crew comprises one more Brake
man than the railroads need.
The petitioners respectfully
urge the abolition of this extra
Brakeman
BECAUSE, the employment Of this
useless Brakeman is an unnecessary
burden ON the railroads, and there
"pays the bill" In 1919 the cost was
$314,9O4, in 1920 800, In 1921 (a
year of business d press o') So 1882
a to al, during the past three years.
Of $1,179,O78 During The last ten
years this law has cost the Railroads
operating in Maryland approximately
TWO AND ONE-HALF MILLION
DOLLARS, without single cent In
return compensation.
BECAUSE. the extra Brakeman IL
not needed in the operation of trains.
The Federal Government requires au-
tomato couplers and air brakes on all
cars and prohibits the use of hand
brakes on trains. Two brakemen are
sufficient. Then why a third Brake
man?
BECAUSE. the railroads are vital
ly interested in the safe and economic
operation of trains, and are fully
qualified to decide upon the size Of
the crews.
BECAUSE, this law places an un-
necessary burden on the railroads ana
leads to high passenger and freight
rates, in which the public is vitality
interested. Industry and trade must
be revived, which is possible only by
removing unnecessary burdens and
lessening of overhead charges. The
stringency of the times will be par
TALLY relieved by the repeal OF this
law. This repeal does not mean more
unemployment; 1t does mean the
transfer of men from useless to useful
occupations In other departments.
where tie money paid them will be
more probably expended In repair
ing locomotives. cars. tracks. etc
BECAUSE. Pennsylvania and other
states have repealed similar laws. The
West Virginia Legislature refused to
pass bill rnacting such law. vir-
ginia and Delaware are without such
a law. Therefore. Maryland, alone In
this group of States, is hampertd by
a full crew law.
We. therefore, appeal to your hon
Orable body to repeal this burden
some and unnecessary law.
