16 RAILROAD RUMBLES MORE CHANGES FORP.R.R.HEADS Vice-Presidents, With Traffic Managers, to Go Next; Then Comes Terminals According to a general belief in lo cal railroad circles. General Mo Adoo's elimination of officials higher up will be followed with changes in departments at terminals. While the men lower down may not be affected for some time, it is said that vice presidents and traffic managers will be hit hard within a few days. It is said that all executive officers will be removed. This sweeping change, foreshadow ed from authoritative quarters yes terday, will include vice-presidents, traffic managers, executives in charge of railroad finances and sim ilar positions. In making these changes Mr. McAdoo is not consid ering abolishing the particular of fices customarily regarded as neces sary in the operation of the roads. The purpose of the move is further to separate the operating depart ment from the corporate end of the business, as was done in the appoint ment of federal managers. Cannot Serve Two Masters The government has taken the po sition that officials connected with the operation of the roads' cannot serve the government and the rail road corporations at the same time. The office of vice-president embraces a supervisory control over the im portant ends of operation and fi nances. At present vice-presidents and other high officers, while nomi nally in the service of the national railroad administration, also are rep resenting the interests of the stock holders. This is the condition the government intends to abolish by appointing its own set of officers. Selections in Doubt Whether the officers in question will be chosen as federal executives is a matter for the regional direc tors of the various districts to de cide. In instances where changes are made it will be left entirely in the province of the corporation as a private party to continue them In theiroriginal positions if desired. The prime essential, according to the program now in formation, is defi nitely to split the operating from the corporate side of the business. As understood now, all secondary officers will be formally dismissed where it is shown their duties in any way hinge on operating matters, as was the case with the railroad presi dents. This move will affect hun dreds of important executives. What ever of these officers are asked to re turn will be given clearly to under stand they do so as government of ficials purely. When the government has selected its full quota the split between the government and private interests will be definitely defined. - LUNCHEON DINNER SUPPER MUSIC HOTEL ADELPHIA IICHUTWT AT RR 11 "PHILADELPHIA * Rest ipfo Your Jlll^ Your vision may be fairly good and yet glasses worn temporarily will afford your eyes relief and com fort. .

In every telephone central office there is a switchboard with a certain number of operators' positions; at each position is an operator; before each operator a certain number of subscribers' lines terminate. If these telephone facilities are taxed to their utmost and a large percentage of the calls is for the time of day, the tele phone user will appreciate that to eliminate such calls will permit a reassignment or redis tribution of both operators' service and tele phone equipment and result in our being able to care for the abnormal demands of the present, and the even greater demands that we feel will be made upon our service in the months to come.
