L eaders or 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
sylvania, Santa Fe. and Southern.
Tlie union claim that a second fireman
is needed on grounds of safety is sheer
hvp-H-risy. Safety has been dragged into
this dispute only m an unsuccessful effort
to give a cloak of respectability to vicious
feather-bedding demands.
After a careful study of the first de
mands of this union, a Presidential Fact
Finding Board on May 21, 1943, reported
to President Roosevelt that there was no
need for an extra fireman on diesel
locomotives.
Again, on September 19, 1949. after a
second hearing on the union leaders’ de
mands. a second Board reported to Presi
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.”
Safety Record of Dieeels is
Outstandingly Good
Although the railroads accepted the ftoard
findings, the union leaden have brasenly
rejected them They represent that an
extra fireman is needed for safety” rea
sons. Here’s what the Board had to say
on that point:
"The safety and on-time performance
of diesel electric locomotives operated
under current rules have been notably
good ...
“Upon careful analysis of the data sub
mitted on safety, we have concluded
that no valid reasons have been shown
as a support for the Brotherhood pro
posal under which a fireman would be
required to be at all times continuously
in the cab of road diesels. The proposal
must be rejected.”
The renf 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-I•cdding."
The railroads have no intention of yield
ing to these wasteful make-work demand«.
Th« Safety Record of Diesels
is Outstandingly Good ..
P sbsidsntial F act F inding B oard R bport
Read these excerpts from official reports
of Presidential Fact Finding Board»:
The safety record of Diesels is out
standingly good, and it follows that
the safety rule» now applicable have
produced good results.’’
The safety and on tune performance
of Diesel-electric locomotives operated
under current rules indicate that
Diesel electric operation has been safer
than steam locomotive operation ...”
Remember* These are not statements of
the railroads. They are just a few of ths
many similar conclusions reached by Preal-
dent Truman's Fact Finding Board which
spent months Investigating the claims of
the union leaders.
