4 BOOST FOR PRATT. KAN.
Eighty-Five Per Cent of r. I. EN-
ployes There Own Homes

In the current 'sThrift Number of
the Rock Island Magazine, j. S. r.
WIN, trainmaster on the Southwest
Kansas division. states that IS per
cent Of the married Rock Island en-
ployes at Pratt, Kan, who have been
with the company one year or longer,
are home owners
of thirteen passenger conductors,
thirteen own their homes.
OF the thirty-nine freight conduc-
tors, thlrty-one own homes.
Or the seventy engineers, sixty one
own their own homes.
OF twenty firenAen, fourteen are
home owners
Also six out of nine dispatehers,
ana SIX out of nine switchmen, own
their homes.
A good percentage of other railroad
men at Pratt are home owners. A
tralnmaster, a chief dispatcher, two
roadmaSterS, two section forem en-.
Two yardmasters, the agent, several
clerks. machinists and boiieFmakers all
own their homes
The high percentage of railroad
men at Pratt who are home owners
IS unusual, says Irwin. but there is a
reason for it. On very few divisions
OF any railroad in the west or south
west are working conditions more
favorable and advancement more rap
id than at Pratt"

"Our most valuable asset is the

new BAGGAGE PLAN MARCH |
Western Roads to Install New Method
of Learning VaIuks.

Under an arrangement similar to
that which has been in effect on east
ern railroads for several years, car
riers affiliated with the Western Pas
senger association, after careful study
and after obtaining legislative sane
ton, have decided to install a method
of obtaining declaration of value on
all baggage checked effective March l.
A charge will be made of 10 cents
for each 500 over the free limit al
lowance, and the charge will be ae-
counted for generally by the use of
adhesive stamps which will be placed
on the backs of duplicate baggage
checks issued to the passenger after
necessary declaration has been made
on a regular blank.
PIacards are to be posted immedi-
ately in all railroad stations on west
ern lines promulgating the effective
date so that the travelling public will
become thoroly acquainted with the
project, according to o. A Roedell,
secretary of the Western Association
of General Baggage Agents.

TRUCKS AN ALLY TO ROADS
Settle Problems of the Short Haul,
Says New York Official.


The Erie railroad plan of transport
ing freight between New Jersey and
New York by motor truck will spread
into general use at the large terminals
of the country in the opinion of A. J.
tional Automobile Chamber of Com
meree, speaking at the shippers con-
ference of Greater New York.
Eight railroads leading into Cincin-
natl, Mr.. Brosseau pointed out. have
been using joint motor truck system
for the local trans-shipment of goods,
cutting the cost of handling nearly
one-half.
Los Angeles, Buffalo, st. Paul,
Rochester,, and other cities have also
made a start in the use of motor truck
terminals.
The serviceability and economy of
the motor truck in short haul work
of forty to fifty mile radius is recog-
nfzed by many leading railroad au-
thorities. The trucks can relieve the
rail lines of the expensive handling of
less carload lots.
The New York Central railroad is
using a nine-compartment express car,
having container with a capacity of
5000 pounds, which may be carried
by motor truck direct to the con-
signee.
DfOSS6du quOtSO SSFCId1
road leaders indicating the trend of
the attitude of the rail lines toward
motor truck usefulness. Elisha Lee,
vice president of the Pennsylvania
system, has said: ITO the extent
which motor vehicles are likely to
take over the short haul freight traf-
fic the railroads will probably be i'm
mediately benefited financially
Gerrit Fort, vice president of the
Boston & Maine railroad, has also in
dicated the value and place of the
truck by saying: 1.-THE motor truck
has come to stay. 1t represents an
economic change in transportation
conditions which is little short OF
revolutionary. There is no use in
fighting the motor truck. Within
their own field the trucks are un-
beatable.'
1.-THE motor truck has become an
ally said Mr.. Brosseau. rather than
a competitor of the railroads, making
possible the permanent and intensive
development of the long haul, which
is the logical and profitable field OF
railroad operation"

TRAIN STUDENTS AT HAYS
State Normal Has Telegraph and Sta
ton Training Course.

The Fort Hays Kansas, Normal
school, state teachers college, To-
Gated at Hays, Kansas, on the Kansas
division of the Union Pacific, has
started an innovation in the college
world, says the first number of the
New Union Pacific Magazine.
In addition to their already COM
plete college course which leads to
the degree of Bachelor of Silence in
Education. they are now offering a
course which gives complete telegraph
and station training. The equipment,
which consists of the latest type of
biography apparatus, tables and other
fixtures, is complete in every detail.
1t was installed at a cost of 5000.
Students for a nominal fee may en-
roll for the special telegraph and sta
ton training course and usually COM
plete the work IN about six months.
The college is properly equipped for
taking care of about sixty students
at a time in this branch Of study.
AS fast as the students graduate, they
are placed as station helpers or stu
dent operators on the Union Pacific
and in a short time are ready to take
the wire test and rules examination
for full-fledged operators.
This branch of training was in
stalled at the college at the request
of the Union Pacific and they use
Union Pacific books of rules, time
tables, tariffs and station forms in
taking a great deal of interest in this
course and it is thought it will be
but a short time until this college
will be able to furnish the Union Pa
cific with sufficient helpers to fill all
of its reQuirem entS.
