Imagination balks at the magnitude of $2,000,000. Only when it is translated into terms of purchasing power does it become comprehensible. Two million dollars, for example, will support more than 2000 families of moderate income for a year. Two million dollars will buy more than 200,000 barrels of flour, more than 50,000 sewing machines or 80,000 suits. It will give work for an entire year to 2000 men and women engaged in various productive industries and other occupations that add to the common welfare of the people in all walks of life. It is $2,000,000 a year that the Full Crew—" excess man crew Laws compel the railroads of your States to pay in unearned wages. Laws deprive yob of improvements for safety and comfort in travel that this money, now used unproductively, would provide. How much longer in these times when economy is a universal necessity are you willing to endure this tremendous waste ? In the end the cost bears upon you, • either in increased rates or decreased service. Will you use your influence in urging that the people’s elected Representatives at Trenton and Harrisburg work and vote for repeal of the Full Crew Laws and place control of tlif; proper manning of trains in the hands of the Public 'Service Commiraioners ?
