Bills To Provide More Funds
 For Locomotive Inspection
Would Increase Annual Appropriation From $3OO,OO0 to $500, ,OO0, Adding IS Inspectors and Legal Advisor-Advocated by Engineers
 and Firemen-Accidents Have
 Jumped 117 Per Cent.

The locomotive inspection bureau has been doing excellent work under very serious handicaps. This has
 been recognized by the representa- tives of the Brotherhood of Locomo tive Engineers an dthe Brotherhood | of Locomotive Bremen and Engine
 men, as well as by the representa-
 ganizations
 Legislative Representatives Active l Herman E. Wills, national legisla-
 tive representative of the Engineers,
 and Arthur J. Lowell, national legis-
 lative representative of the Bremen,
 have taken the lead in framing the
 proposed legislation and urging its
 adoption on Congress.
 They hope to secure early hearings
 before the committees of the House
 and the Senate and are prepared to submit a mass of valuable testimony. The official records show that for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1923, as compared with the fiscal year ending
 June 30, 1922, the number of acci- dents traceable to defective locomo- tive equipment had increased II7 per cent.
 These same records prove that for the same period the number of deaths traceable to defective 1ocomo- tive equipment had increased II8 per cent, while the number of inju juries increased I2o per cent.
 This IS an appalling record and 1t is believed that when members of Congress had had an opportunity to consider it, they will not hesitate to furnish the bureau of locomotive in spection with the needed funds. The members of the Interstate Commerce Commission are in com plete sympathy with the proposed Legislation. The legislative represen- tatives of the brotherhoods have con suited with members of the commits sion and have endeavored to coop crate with them.
 This legislation is so important that railroad workers should get in touch with their Congressmen and Senators and urge them to give 1t early and favorable consideration.

Big Biz Gives Aid
 To MurderOus Thug

St. Paul, Minn., Feb. I6.-The state pardon board has reduced the sem tence of Fred A. Hurst from three years to one year and 10 months. This will make his release possible next July.
 Hurst IS a citizens alliance slug ger In October, 1921, he assaulted U, M. Guise, high school principal, in the belief that Guise was John Klaus, representative of the Typo graphical union. Every power that big business and the citizens alliance could muster was swung in behalf of Hurst. Judge Catlin refused to give the thug sus- pended sentence, and that jurist vas defeated for reelection. County At torney O'Brien also refused to heark- en to the voice of law-defying biz business, and he narrowly escaped defeat Citizens alliance newspapers abused police officials who insisted that Hurst be prosecuted.
 Since Hurst has been confined in the state penitentiary he has served as a trusty.

People Are Warned
 On Deadly Gas Fumes

Washington, Feb. Io.-Warning as to the deadly hazards of gas in un- ventilated rooms and garages is again sounded by the federal bureau of mines
 Many houses have no fiues for car rying off waste gases, which remain in the house. If gas heater without hue is used, window should be open at least one-inch all the time. The bureau warns people that they are flirting with death'' if they go to bed with a heater burning and the windows and doors closed.
 Another deadly hazard is carbon monoxide from automobiles in closed garages. The department pleads that these garages be ventilated, and that one should never crawl under a car when the engine is running, no mat ter how good the ventilation is. An other hazard is operating a tightly closed automobile on highway or elsemhere. Provision should be made for some fresh air entering the ton neau, the statement says.

Legislation of the utmost interest to locomotive engineers and hremen has been introduced in the Senate by Senator Smith of South Carolina, and in the House by Representative Cooper of Ohio, at Washington.
 The bilsl are identical and provide for important amendments to the To- comotive inspection act originally ap- proved February I7, 1911, and amended March 4, 1915, and January 26, 1918.
 Under the existing law the annual appropriation for the locomotive in spection bureau is limited to $3oo,ooo Under the Smith-Cooper bill this will be increased to $5oo,ooo
 With this additional allowance the bureau of locomotive inspection will be placed in a position to tremend- ously increase its efficiency. . It will be able to employ from 10 to IS new inspectors, thus increasing the total force of inspectors from so to Go or 65.
 Preparation of Evidence
 Heretofore the bureau has been without competent legal adviser. When railroad companies violated the law tn buereau was expected to pre- pare the evidence and submit it to the Department of Justice. This is work which requires a trained legal mind, and the bureau was without that kind of assistance.
 The bill also provides increased sal aries for the chief inspector and his subordinates The chief inspectors salary will be increased from $6,ooo to $7,5oo a year. The assistant chief inspector will go up from $5,ooo to $6,ooo and the district inspectors will get a boost from $3,ooo to $3,6oo.
 This is extremely important. The men engaged in the work of locomo- tive inspection must be possessed of experience, training and unquestioned integrity. Men of that character are difficult to secure at present salaries. This is shown by tn efact that the best men in the service are being con stantly solicited to enter private em- ployment.
