FRIDAY EVENING. HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH OCTOBER 20, 1916.
MORE SHIFTERS
DUE AT READING
v Work at Reading Shops Is
Hushed; Lack of Material
Causes Delays
The Philadelphia and Reading
.(ailway Company expects to set the
first of the last lot of 30 new freight
locomotives to bo built at Baldwin's
the later part of this month. The de
lay in the delivery is due to the in
ability of the firm to get the mate
rial. , ,
It Is expected that the work of
building the 10 new shifters at the
Heading shops will be welt under
way by the end of the month. The
machinery is now being assembled
and the plates for the boilers will be
delivered within the next 10 days.
One of the new steel mail cars
built at the Reading shop has been
completed and will be ready for serv- |
ice in a short time. Another is nearly
finished.
Need More Equipment
The Reading is in need of equip
ment.' freight business has taken a
big Jump and there is a scarcity of
cars for coal business and general
freight traffic.
The new engines and cars are being
rushed, but on account of shortage
of material there has been frequent
delays. Cars are being sent daily to
the coal and cement districts. There
is also more new passenger equip
ment near completion.
TRACK WALKER'S MILEAGE
For 20 years Hicenger F. Shingle,
of Parker Ford, a track walker em
ployed by the Schuylkill division of
ihe Pennsylvania Railroad, has walked
eight miles every day In the perform
ance of his duties. This is 56 miles
a week and 2,920 each year or 58,400
for the 20 years. In his walks he has
worn out an average of six pairs of
shoes each year.
I-'RICK Ol'T OF READING
Henry C. Frick lias resigned as a
director of the Reading Company, C.
K. Dilkes, an employe of the com
pany, being elected in his place. Mr.
Frick's retirement from the Reading
board took financial circles by sur
prise. It was said to be due to the
Clayton act as applying to interlock
ing directorates. Banking circles took
Jlr. Frick's resignation from the im
portant Reading board as indicating
that the big financiers are not going
to stand on ceremony in quitting posts
which conflict with the Government's
interpretation of the Clayton law.
They now expect further changes In
railroad boards. Only last week Mr.
Frick retired from the directorates of
the Philadelphia and Reading Rail
way Company and the Philadelphia
and Reading Coal and Iron Company.
