\ettki 'U'lh/ GtflM/ > * Editor; It was with great interest that I read your column, “Railroad Situation Becoming Bleaker” in “Lancaster Farming" Saturday, Feburary 8. Your excellent editorial points out many of the reasons that I introduced Senate Bill 52, the Rail Freight Rescue Act, in the Senate on February 1. I am particularly cognizant of the fact that rail freight service is absolutely essential to the agricultural industries of central Penn sylvania including the counties I represent in the State Senate. The purpose of the Rail Freight Rescue Act is to provide a state agency which will formulate a plan to save rail freight service and also provide funds to help local Week-end Woodsmen prefer HOMIELITE'Chain Saws You can take care of every out door woodcutting job.

As you know, the National Rail Reorganization Act of 1973 provides grants of 70 percent where the states put up 30 per cent. The purpose of my bill is to provide that state funding for Pennsylvania. No such program now exists at the state level and I believe that the passage of this bill is, therefore, very important. You will also be interested to know that Donald Parke, Executive Vice President at PennAg Industries, is familiar with the bill and supports it. I read your newspaper regularly and find it most informative. (Limited Supply) ISED CHAIN SAWS XL-103 C-5 EZ XL-2 110 Electric 5-30 N 660 (AS IS) (AS IS) FARMERSVILLE EQUIP., I IMG.
