Look out! There's another big rail
roadwagedemandhead dyourwayl
The incorporating unions alone
whose members do not actually
operate trains = are demanding
fiat increase of 20 cents an hour.
These demands would cost the rail-
roads of the country five hundred
sixty-eight million dollars q year!
Last year these employees had
an increase of 1917 cents an
hour This was their third major
wage increase since 1889. Their
average weekly pay has gone II
75%, as against q co9t-of-,ig :
rise of 54%.
Since 1889, railroad wage and
material costs have gone up more
than three times as much as freight
rates, and five times as much as
passenger fares. That is why in
Dickenson County herald. [volume] (Clintwood, Va.) 1939-195?, 1947-05-22

special payroll taxes on railroads
have recently been increased;
and passenger traffic has declined.

Come From?
We can't pay out what we don't take

Dickenson County herald. [volume] (Clintwood, Va.) 1939-195?, 1947-05-22
You would foot the bill!

1916, with the largest peacetime
traffic in history, the net income of
railroads went down to the equiva-
lent of only 2349o of the net prop
erty investment.
What About 1917?
Even with the recent freight rate
increase, preliminary figures indi-
cate that the railroads will make
only about the same low return in
1947 as in 1916. This will be because
the wage increase made in 1916
will be in effect for all of 1947;

race Court was a slum area.
Almost within the shadow OF the
Nations Capitol, the eight brick
houses in the court had outside cold
water taps and yard toilets, Kero-
sene lamps were used for lighting.
Today the one-time unslghtly
slum is being reclaimed. Six private
owners bought the houses about
eight months ago. They now have
under way their own urban rede-
velopment program with the blessing
of the District Government.
Utilities Installed.
Already electricity and water have
been brought into most of the
homes. Backyard sheds housing
toilets are to be torn down: A bath
room has been installed inside one
house, and plans are ready for con-
struction of additions at the rear of
the others to contain bathrooms.
Owners are undermining the
homes individually for their own use
and according to their own taste.
