RAILROAD RUMBLES
LONGER HOURS
FORSHOPIEN
Locomotive Builders at Read
ing Consider Government
Recommendation
Reading, April 23.—N0 decision
has been reached by shop employes
of the Philadelphia and Reading
Railway on the quesUon of Jonger
hours. A general opinion prevails
that the men will agree to Increased
time, but they prefer to wait until
the increase in wages is announced
from Washington. The men will
work again this week. It Is under
stood that action taken here will
affect all dlvlslpns.
When the United States officials
were here last week they made a
thorough examination of the big
plant. They found that its equip
ment was modern in every way.
They gave it as their opinion that
the output was not as great as It
should be and, therefore, suggested
that the men work longer hours. It
is because of this that Sunday's con
ference was held. Some of the men
HARJRISBURG &s£&£ TELEGRAPH
have been making considerable over
time.
Nearly one hundred per cent, of
the men employed at the local shops
are members of the Federation of
Labor.
One of the empoyes at the shop
said that there is no kicking on the
part of the men as to longer hours,
but they want to know just where
they stand as to the pay they h.re
to receive. They appreciate the fact
that if the company expects to keep
up with the work longer hours are
absolutely necessary.
To Help Other Roads
It is reported that because of the
splendid equipment in the Reading
shop it is the purpose of the gov
ernment to send locomotives here
from other lines and that in a short
time the Reading shop will employ i
a much larger force of mechanics.
It is claimed by the government
that this is no time for quibbling,
and while the offlcinls are disposed
to exercise great patience, the men
must reach some agreement that
will be satisfactory to the govern
ment. Some say that the men do
not like the idea of working 68
hours a week, but admit that there
are not sufficient men to put the
shop on eight hours a day.
Friendship Club Meeting
Promises Much Interest
Members of the Friendship and
Co-operative Club for Railroad Men

tendent of the Middle division, will

ficiency and discipline buletins. There
will be other prominent officials
present who will speak.
American Express Company
Announces an Embargo
An embargo having been placed on
the American Express business out of
Philadelphia, Baltimore and other cit
ies, there was very little doing here
on Sunday. The embargo was placed
in order that the great mass of busi
ness which had accumulated in the
cities could be disposed of. Of late
the trade had grown so large that
it was impossible to take care of It.
It is expected that the embargo will
be lifted in a day or two.

Police Station No Place to
Put Money if You Want It
Even a without prisoners is
not a safe place to leave money.
This was demonstrated in Steelton
yesterday when a pocketbook contain
ing $lO belonging to atrolman Bower
master of the borough police force,
was taken from a window sill where
he had placed it.
Patrolman Bowermaster was doing
some work in the lockup and fearing
bis pocket.boolc may drop from his
pocket he removed it and laid it on
the window sill. Forgetting it he
left the borough huildling.
Several hours later he discovered
thut he had forgotten his money and
returned to the lockup to find that
someone had taken money, pocket
book and a few personal belongings.
Chief Grove said to-day he is con
ducting an investigation.
