WORKERS INSURED
BY LEHIGH VALLEY
S5O,000,000 Group Policy Pro.
vides Low Rate for Life
and Accident.

The Lehigh Valley Railroad Com
pany has negotiated group insurance
policy with the Travellers Insurance
Company of Hartford under which the
10000 employees of that railroad will be
insured for approximately $50,000.0OO,
said an announcement yesterday by f..
L. Loomis. its prsidet
The plan permits every employe OF
the road who has been in its service
one year or more to obtain at an ex-
ceptionally low rate protection against
death, dismemberment or loss Of sight
in amounts ranging from $4,000 to
$4,000, according to his classification.
Engineers. conductors, shop foremen
and supervisory employees fall into the
$4,000 class. Employees in train serv-
ice not included in that classification
may take up to $4,000 and all others
$4,000. Workers whose age is more
than seventy are limited to $1,000. In
each case half of the amount will rep
resent life insurance and half accidental
death and dismemberment insurance.
The plan is effective as of April l.
The definitions of what shall consti-
tute total disability under the policy are
liberal. and there Is no medical examina-
tion required. Acceptance of the insur-
ance is optional with the workers, but
the enrolment Of at least rs per cent.
of the employees on any division Of the
railroad system is necessary to make 1t
effective.
The Lehigh Valley Is one of the larg-
est contributory group insurance plans
ever written, and has some points In
common with that announced few
weeks ago by the Delaware and Hudson
Company. Several other large railroads
are known to have similar plans in the
making as a means to increasing the
loyalty OF their employees and other
wise strengthening the tie that binds
them to their employer.

1t as typically Philadelphian. 1t has par.

down the ordinance suggested by the High

THE BIG DEADLOCK

GO FAR as the rail and coal strike nego-
~ tiatiOns have gone, one thing. and one
thing only, is entirely clear. The Govern
ment itself is stumped and helpless. 1t is
In the position of an umpire whose voice is
drowned in the bedlam of free for all
scufie and whose decisions have no weight
with the players in violent game.
And this is because the Government has
gone to tie limits Of its authority. 1t might
have bad power to 60 further If Congress
fadFhot consistently refused to permit any
thing like real investigation at the source
Of major strike troubles. The wisest plan
ever suggested in Washington since strikes
became n national affection was that offered
in the Senate to provide for n fact finding
commission composed Of scientific and i'm
partial men already in the Federal service
to ascertain in detailed survey the actual
truth about wages, working conditions
organization, purposes and profits of the
coal business.
The plan was sidetracked for political
asOuS.
