This is sheer waste —a “make-work” program which would mean fewer improvements and higher costs—for you ! Railroads use modern diesel locomotives be cause they arc1 one of the means of giving faster, better service to you. Two men compose the crew of a diesel. They occupy a clean, comfortable cab at the front. The engineer handles the throttle. The fireman sits and watches the track ahead. With no coal to shovel, he has practically nothing else to do.

LEONARD Cr>n^te Real Fa state Service Clyde Hill, Salesman Bo? ¿11 South end of town Brookings, Oregon Now the leaders of the Brotherhood of Loco motive Engineers and the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen want to use the diesel locomotive as a means of forcing a feather-bedding scheme on the rail roads. The extra men they propose to add to the diesel crews are not needed. There is no work for them. The union leaders are fighting among them selves about which union should furnish these extra, needless men. The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers have even threatened a strike. You may not bi* interested in this dis pute of these two unions, but you would be vitally’ concerned if these groups succeed in putting through this feather-bedding scheme, because it would fhean a slowing up of the improvement program of the railroads—of which the diesel is the outstanding symbol. Diesel crews are among the highest paid er tea unbas railroad employes—real aristocrats of labor! 'Their pay is high by any standard. Granting of these demands, therefore, would mean that the railroads would be paying out millions in unearned wages to those in the very highest pay brackets. We’d Like To Spend This Money On You You know how much the diesel has meant to you in increased speed, comfort and conven ience. The railroads have many more of them on order for even greater improvement in service to you. But needless drains of money, such as this present demand of the unions for needless men on diesels, reduce the ability of the railroads to spend money on better serv ice for you. Proud as the railroads are of the diesel, it is only a small part of their improvement pro gram. Since the War, literally billions of dol- lars have been spent on improvement of 1 05 ADAMS STREET its tracks and stations, on new passenger and freight cars, as well as on diesel locomotives, and on the many other less conspicuous de tails of railroading that contribute to im proved service. Feather-Bedding Means Less Service To You But brazen feather-bedding schemes like the one now proposed would, it successful, divert large sums of money from our present im provement programs. Even worse, they make improvements like the diesel worthless, t>y making the cost of their operation prohibitive. 'These demands are against your interests —as well as those of the railroads. They are schemes to "make work”. Neither you nor the railroads should be forced to pay such a penalty for progress. 'That’s why the railroads are resisting these "make work" demands to the last ditch—and why they are telling you about them. • CHICAGO 3, ILLINOIS Ue are publishing this and other advc rtisements to talk with you i first hand about matters which are important to everybody.
