might retard production and in
terfere with the war effort."

taken in executive session after
the committee heard representa
tives of various consumer groups
and an American Federation of
Labor spokesman insist that
grade labeling Is necessary to
maintain price ceilings. Industry
representatives had been heard
previously.

Why Number 88
stopped at Pequop
We'll betyou never heard of Pecjuop.NeTada.But w
know Mrs. Charles Moore of San Francisco has.
Mrs. Moore is the mother of Private Eugene Moore
of the U. S. Marines the man who was beaten,
stabbed and mauled by a small army of Japs la the
Solomons and lived.
Eastbound on Southern Pacific's Train Number 88,
Mrs. Moore had given up hope of seeing her son
again, when a telegram from her husband was deliv
ered to her on the train at Wells, Nevada. It saidi
"GENE IS HOME. COME BACK."
Mrs. Moore ran frantically through the train, found
the conductor and cried, "I've got to get back my
tools home safe I"
Now conductors are used to emergencies, and they
try to be as helpful as they can. But when Conductor
Fred C. Snooks found out that the son was indestruc
tible Moore of the U. S. Marines, he really went
Into action.
Quickly comparing his train orders, Snooks saw he
would meet the first westbound train at Icarus,
Nevada, but he knew he wouldn't be able to get his
flagman far enough ahead to stop the other train in
time. So he decided to take the siding at Pequop, a
mall station west of Icarus, and make the transfer
there. It would delay two trains, but what of it? Tha
important thing was to get Mrs. Moore back to her son.
Approaching Pequop, Snooks signalled his engineer
to stop and take the siding. His head brakeman ran
forward a quarter of a mile and flagged down tha
westbound train. Conductor Snooks transferred Mrs.
Moore to the care of Conductor Linton and sent her
speeding westward, back to her ion.
This Incident has nothing to do with Southern
Pacific's part in the war effort. It simply shows that a
railroad is more than trains and tracks it is ptopl.
And no matter how busy or hard-pressed railroad
. people are, they are still human beings, and their hearts
are la tha right place.
