Increased Benefits All Around
The Burlington relief department has
got out a new insurance schedule which
goes into effect March 1st 1904 Mem
bers will get a raise of twenty per cent
on their death benefits and they will
also be entitled to half accident and sick
benefits for the second fifty two weeks
in case they are disabled or sick An
additional amount will also be added for
members in case of a loss of leg or arm
The new schedule as a whole is quite an
increase and for which the members
have to pay nothing extra On account
of less accidents in which railroad men
are injured occurring in recent yearsthe
relief department has been able to make
these increases This makes the cheap
est and best insurance a railroad man
