WEDNESDAY EVENING, RAILROAD NEWS CALL ATTENTION TO BAD RECORDS Middle Division Superintend ent Says Too Many Break downs Occur Enginemen employed on the Mid dle division of the Pennsylvania railroad have been warned regard ing too many break downs. In a statement published yesterday, J. C. Johnson, superintendent, calls at tention to records made during Au gust, which he says is interesting, but is not pleased with the break downs. He says: "The statement of the record of freight enginemen during the month of August, 1919, shows that 3,184 trips were made and 7.6 per cent, of these trips had engine trouble, 2.6 per cent, train trouble, and it was necessary to relieve 5.3 per cent, on account of the sixtcen-hour law. Make Close Study "Those who are continuously hav ing all kinds of trouble should get a good lesson from a close study of this record. The engine house peo ple also have a lesson to learn —7.6 per cent, of the freight engines fall ing on the road in one month is entirely too high. Investigation as to cause for these failures develops that at least 90 per cent, of them are due to repairs not being prop erly made." The bulletin concludes with the statement that it is believed by Pennsy officials that this record can be improved upon. Veterans on Reading to Be Placed on Honor Roll The following Reading Railway employes were placed on the pen sion roll: Kimber C. Weiss, engineer. Gordon. He has a record of 4 7 years service. Charles C. Laurer. passenger brakeman on the main line, on account of being totally in capacitated. He is 67 years of age. Henry Holl and Charles Ehrber. both watchmen at Willow and No ble streets. Philadelphia, on the age limit. The birth of these two men occurred on the same day. They entered the service a year apart. Standing of the Crews 11 ARRISBI Rj: SIDE Philadelphia Division.
