FULL CREW LAW
REPEATER BILL
introduced in State Senate by
Allen of Salem Shows
Railroad Losses

TRENTON, Jan. 31:-What is re-
garded as a virtual repeal of the So
called full crew" law, passed in
1918, was introduced in the senate
last night by Senator Allen of Salem
county, Republican.
The measure. which is similar to
one recently enacted in Pennsylva-
mia and to bills pending in Pennsyl-
vania and Maryland, has for its pur-
pose the vesting in the Public Utility
Commission full control over the
size of train crews. II is understood
that during the past year alone the
present act cost the railroads the
sum Of $6S0,000 and since 1t was
enacted ii meant an expenditure TO
them of approximately $4,000, 900 In
wages for extra men on trains. The
railroads claim that these additions
10 the crews have not contributed
TO either safety or efficiency of oper-
alton.
Originally the act on this subject
was mandatory. In 1917 Governor
Edges administration approved an
amendment which permitted any
railroad to obtain the consent of the
Public Utility Board to reduce the
size of the crews. If the latter body
deemed such consent advisable UNI
der the Allen bill just introduced,
this 1917 amendment Is repealed
and there is enacted in its place a
law placing complete Jurisdiction
over all crews ON trains in the hands
OF the utility commission with fun
to issue orders as to the num-
Der of men 1t decides are necessary
to operate the trains.

to the worklrouse for sixty days
when he was brought before Re-
corder Harold Z. Pickersgill this
morning on a drunk and disorderly
charge. In sentencing Ignatz the
court said, what do you want to
come over here from T~ottenville to
get drunk for? 1t is very bad for
you to come over here, roll around
in our clean snow. and then raise a
disturbance in II hospital when
you can't walk any longer"
Ignatz replied, shaking his head
ruefully, TOO much whiskey," and
when he understood the sentence
imposed upon him he threw mp his
hands in dismay and cried. That's
enough for Ignatz." He was taken
into custody by Officer Patrick
Dwyer.
The only other case was that of
John M%ulligan, of Matawan, who
was fined SIS for drunk and disor-
derby conduct. Patrolman Michael
Patten made this arrest.
