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. "A intro
duced by Hon. Walter Mitchell
which repeats the so-called full
crew law enacted in 1903. 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, l Con
ductor and 2 Brakemen and l
Flagman 6 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
fore, on the public which after all
pays the bill" In 1919 the cost was
S314,9O4, in 1890 S498S90, IN 1921 Is
year of business DEPRESSION $361,2s2,
total, during the past three years.
Of $11T9076 During the last ten
years this law has cost the Railroads
operating in Maryland approximately
TWO AND ONE HALT MILLION
DOLLARS, without single cent in
return compensation.
h. e.
not needed in the operation OF trains.
The Federal Government requires au-
tomato ceuplers and air brakes on all
cars and prohibits the use Of hand
brakes on trains. Two brakenen arc
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 I'M
necessary burden on the railroads and
leads to high passenger and freight
rates, in which the public is vitally
interested. Industry and trade must
be revived, which is possible only by
removing unnecessary burdens and
lesseuing Of overhead charges. The
stringency OF the times will be par
italy relieved by the repeal Of this
law. This repeal does not mean more
unemployment; it does mean the
transfer Of men from useless to useful
occupations in other departments,
where the 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states have repealed similar laws The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 enactiug such a law Viz
gini8 and Delaware are without such
a law. Therefore, Maryland. alone in
this group Of States, is hampered by
a full crew law.
We, therefore, appeal to your hon
orable body to repeal this burden
some and unnecessary law.

FIRE DESTROYS COMBINED
DWELLING AND STORE

store and dwelling house Of George
Bushman about noon on Saturday os
last week. The origin Of the fire is
not definitely known, but it is sup
posed that it was started by the nib
bling of mice among matches stored
IN an upstairs warercom at the rear
OF the store.
. As soon as the fire was discovered
and the alarm given neighbors and
friends rushed to the scene hoping to
save the building, but this was soon
19und to be impossible. However, by
strenuous and continued work almost
the entire stock Of the store room
was carried out to place Of safety
before the flames and smoke made
entrance to the building impossible.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bushman occupied
rooms over the store, and it being
noon, Mrs. Bushman had gone down
to the storeroom to call Mr.. Bushman
to lunch. He happened to be reading
an account of fire from a paper and
upon her entrance read the account
aloud to her. While thus engaged
slight noise was heard overhead and
Mrs. Bushman as soon as the article
was finished started upstairs to inves-
tigate the cause of the noise she had
heard. Upon opening the doorway of
the staircase she was met by a suffo-
eating cloud Of smoke. AS it was i'm
possible for anyone to reach the sec
ond story Of the building none of the
furniture or personal belongings of
Nr. and Mrs. Bushman was saved
from the fire and the building collaps-
cd in something over an hour afterthe
alarm had been given.
