TO THE GENERAL ASSEM-
BLY, OF MARYLAND:
The undersigned Railroad Com
NAMES, all operating in the state
of Maryland, join in petition 10
YOUR honorable body to act favor
ABLY on Senate Bill No. "A intro
duced by Hon. Walter MltcneIi
which repeats the so-called i, Iull
crew law enacted in 1908. Ihls
burdensome and wholly unneces-
sarv law requires railroads TO
man all freight trains Of 80 OF
more cars with crews OF SIX men;
viz: Engineer, l Fireman, l Con
ductor and Brakemen ana l
Flagman 6 Brakemen). ms
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 unnertsS'FN
burden on the railroads. and there

Of s1.l79,0T6 During the last ten
wears this law has cost the Railroads
operating In Maryland approximately
TWO AND oNE-HALF MlLLloN
DOLLARS, without a single cent i'll
return compensation.
BECAUSE. the extra Brakeman Is
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 brakernen are
sufficient. Then why third Brake
man?
BECAUSE. the railroads are vital
Iy interested in the safe and economic
operation of trains, and are tuhy
qualified to decide upon the size oil
the crews.
BECAUSE, this law places an I'M
necessary burden on the railroads ana
leads to high passenger aud frelEhi
rates. IN which the public is VitallH
interested industry and trade must

removing unnecessary burdens aud

stringency Of the times will he par

law. This repeal does not mean more
unemployment IL does mean tho
transfer Of men from useless to useful
occupations in other departments,
where the money paid them will be
more profitably expended In repair
ing locomotives. cars. tracks. etc.
BECAUSE. Pennsylvania and other
states have repealed similar laws. Tn"
West Virginia Legislature refused 20
pass bill enacting such n law. Viz
giaia and Delaware are without such
n law Therefore. Maryland, alone in
this group of States. is hamper,d by
a fun crew law.
We. therefore. appeal 10 your hon

has been in conference with heads
Of the State Life Insurance Com

have a big man IN him as this Job
which they have turned over 90 him
Is quite out Of the ordinary and
needs the attention Of q specialist,
and from our acquaintance with
Mr. Quinn we know they have done
well 10 have him take that work,

real go-fetter when more business
Is the goal.
lie came 20 Lubbock about two
and half years ago. from the army
where he was in the infantry, and
Immediately set to work with the
State Life Insurance. and made
reputation as an insurance man be-
fore many weeks.
Success may come 90 those who
wait in some instances, but Mr..
Quinn was unwilling 10 take tho
stand that some do on this propo-
sition, and decided 20 get out and
hustle 10 become successful. and
now that he Is given this position
shows that his we're the right meth
DDS.
The State Life Insurance Com
pany has only three other state
managers, Mr.. Quinn having been
given the place left by j. NJ. Sayr,
whose headquarters were at Pueblo,
Colorado, and who died there in
