Those who worry over the size of their garage bills and decide it's time to junk the old car should find some comfort in reading what it costs a railroad to keep its engines going. The average cost of repairs on Wabash locomotives in 1934 was $4.057.27. If the railroad's garage bill for a year doesn't startle the owner of an auto, then perhaps the cost of operation might make him decide to stick to his car.

The overall average expense of running one of the steam locomotives 100 miles is $56.31. The itemized report shows that this $56.31 cents per 100 miles is divided between repairs, the largest single item amounting to an average of fuel, amounting to enginemen, amounting to enginehouse expense amounting to $4.93 and lubricants amounting to 67 cents. Use Million Tons of Coal. The engines consumed 1,022,000 tons of coal in the year, an increase of 95,000 tons from the year 1933 it cost, placed on the tender of the engine just an even $2 a ton and as compared with $2.04 a ton the previous year. Although fuel cost average was less, the average run of a locomotive per ton of coal in 1934 was 12.07 miles a compared with 13.02 the year before.

Showing the effects of increased freight business in the year, the engines averaged 38,962 miles per year as compared with 34,925 miles the year before and all of the Wabash engines combined traveled 451 miles or about 493 times around the world. Reflecting the increase in shop work, mainly at Decatur, the labor repair bill on engines alore for the year was $760,809 as compared with $659,892 in 1933. an increase of more than $100.000, most of which was spent in Decatur. Expect Ruling Monday. Local railroad workers now feel certain a decision will be forthcoming from the supreme court next Monday on the railway retirement act.

As the day approaches many feel confident that the act is to be upheld while others are just as certain it will not be. In case it is upheld there are probably several score old workers in Decatur who will quit work almost immediately. In fact some of them have already been laying off several and merely awaiting the months. act has been upheld to say they are through. In case expect the to act is return to declared work invalid, once.

they There are some few who do not want to be pensioned, this applying particularly to some workers whose monthly pay check runs quite a bit larger than would the pension check. In fact it is said some workers who are past or nearing the retirement age of 65 years are now trying to prove they still have several years to go to reach this limit and insist they "lied just a little" about their age when they first applied for work in their younger days in order to be old enough to take a job. Another rumor is that the Pennsylvania would not object to the new pension plan as it would be cheaper than their present voluntary plan. Some of the retired men in the conductor and engineer class would receive a smaller pension under the act. Of course section men and other retired workers in the lower paid classes would get an However, under the Increase.

In the meantime the National Pension association is urging all workers to join the membership, believing that it will be necessary as a permanent organization whether the pension act is upheld or not.
