Now the Firemen’s leaders seek to paralyze railroad transportation to compel the railroads to employ a wholly unnecessary additional fireman to ride on diesel locomotives. This scheme is plain L eaders 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 sylvania, Santa Fe, and Soutliern. The union claim that a second fireman is needed on grounds o f s a fety is sheer hypocrisy. Safety has been dragged into thia dispute only in an unsuccessful effort to give a cloak o f respectability to vicious feather-bedding demands. A fter a careful study o f the first de mands o f thia union, a Presidential Fact Finding Board on M ay 21, 1943, reported to President Roosevelt that there was no need fo r an e x tra firem an 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 firem an. . . upon either the ground o f safety or that o f efficiency and economy o f operation.** extra fireman is needed for "sa fety” rea sons. Here’s what tlie Board had to say on that point; "T h e safety and on-tlm e performance of diesel electric locomotives operated under current rules have been notably good . . . ‘ ‘ Upon careful analysis of the data sub m itted 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.” real The 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 o f "feather-bedding.” T h e railroads have no intention o f yield ing to these wasteful make-work demands. "The Safety Recent of Diesels is Outstandingly G ood. . P residential F act F indinu B oard R etort Read these excerpts from official reports of Presidential Fact Finding Boards: "The safety record of Diesels is out standingly good, and it follows that the safety rules now applicable have produced good results.” 'T h e safety and on-tim e perform ance of Dieeel-electric loco m o tive* operated u n d er c u rre n t ru les in d ic a t e th a t Dieeel-electric operation has been safer than steam locom otive operation , , . ” Rem em ber! These are not statem ents of Ihe railroads. They are Juet a fsw o f tha many similar conclusions reached by Presi dent T ru m a n '» Pact Finding Board which spent months Investigating the claims o f the union leaders. Safety Record o f Diesels is Outstandingly Good Although the railroads accepted the Board findings, the union leaders have brazenly rejected them.
