extra fireman is need for Safety rea-
sons. Here's what tie Board had to say
on that point:
"Tha safety and or-time performance
of diesel electric Locomotives operated
under current rules have been notably
good -.
Upon careful analysis of the data SUBJ
United or safety, we have concluded
that no valid reasons have been shown
as a support for the brotherhood pro-
posal under which Il fireman would be
required to be at al; times continuously
in the cab of road diesels. The proposal
must be rejected"
The real reason behind these demands is
that the union leaders are trying to make
Jobs where there is no work. In other
words. a plain case of "feather-bedGing."
The railroads have no intention ofy'eId-
ing to these wasteful make-Work demands.

"The sefety Record Of DieseIs
is 0utsfundingly Good %"

President IAL FACT FINDING BOARD REPORT
Read thee excerpts from official reports
of Presidential Fact Finding Boards:
THE safety record of Dcsels is out
standingly good, and it follows that
the safety rules now applicable have
produced good results"
The safety and on-time performance
of Dies.I-electric locomotives operated
under current rules indicate that
DieseI-electric operation has been safer
than ST cam locomotive operation
Remember! These are not statements OF
the railroads. They are just few OF the
manysim liar conclusions reached by Presi-
dent Truman's Fact Finding Board which
spent months investigating the CLAIMS OF
the union leaders.
Tabor City tribune. (Tabor City, N.C.) 1946-1991, 1950-04-26

LEADERS OF the Firemen's union have
called a nationwide strike starting with
four great railroads on April 26. These
railroads are the New York Central, Penn
sylvana, Santa Fe, and Southern.
The union claim that a second fireman
is needed on grounds Of safety is sheer
hypocrisy. Safety has been dragged into
this dispute only in an unsuccessful effort
to give cloak of responsibility to vicious
feather bedding demands.
After careful study of the first de-
mands of this union, Presidential Fact
Finding Board on May 81, l943, reported
to President Roosevelt that there was no
need for an extra fireman on diesel
locomotives.
Again, on September 10, l949, after a
second hearing on the union leaders de-
mands, a second Board reported to Presl-
dent Truman that: there presently exists
no need for an additional fireman. upon
either the ground Of safety or that OF
efficiency and economy of operation.

Plead Guilty in
Communist Trolls

Robert Voglar, an American
businessman in Hungary has
pleaded guilty to charges of
espionage in the communist
government trials now being
held in Budapest. His British
associate, Edgar Sanders, has
already pleaded guilty to a 81

The State Department has
referred to the now familiar
pattern Of communist political
trials pointing out that both
men have been held incommu-
nicado by The Hungarian
police since their arrest three
months ago. That the Govern

to convict the two men. Indi-
cations are that they have been

Ohio has explained that the Indian
Summer weather is caused by
tropical air flowing up from the
Gulf regions because of the low
pressure trough" along or just
west of the Mississippi River
coupled with a high pressure
ridge" over the western Atlantic.
He has also cautioned that this
state can expect a backlash of the
Florida hurricane and that there
is a possibility the Ohio valley
will be wetted down by Friday.
In London Tuesday the tem-
perature set a local record with
reading of 81 degrees and the
following day it was up to II by
noon. A.s
October, the weather authorit-
les say, normally gets the least
amount of rain of any month in
the year and thus brings more
sunny days and consequently
warm weather.

man presented himself at the
front desk, Heath recognized him
as man wanted for getting away

ious hotels in Texas, Oklahoma

Heath let the man register, gave
a bell-boy his key, and sent him,
SNUG, and sure of himself, to his
room. Then Heath notified the
police. The man was taken into
custody. identified and Heath's
part in the transaction resulted in
