Amelia Pastor, Wife
Travel 4,570 Miles in
1939 Model Sedan
AMELIA — Rev. and Mrs. Ira
I. Dixon, pastor of the Bethany
Free Methodist church near
Amelia, are home again after a
motor trip to Los Angeles, Cal.,
and other West coast points.
After picking up their daughter,
Frances, at Casper, Wyo., they
stopped first to view the Great
Salt Lake and the Mormon tab
ernacle at Salt Lake City, Utah.
The next point of interest was
Boulder City, Nev., and the mo
tion pictures showing construc
tion of Hoover Dam. They tour
ed the dam with its various ob
servation tunnels, passageways,
great turbines and spillways.
“Of course, the desert drive
was one to remember as we
crossed during the middle of the
day, arriving at our son’s (Mer
lin’s) in Hollydale, Calif., in the
early evening,” Rev. Dixon said.
The Lakewood home addition
is turning out a hundred new
homes equipped with incinerat
ors, refrigerators and washevs
every day. They are sold ahead
now so that if one were to sign
up there would be no delivery
until after August 1.
“We did not see all of LA but
enough to know that their won
derful new freeways (4-lane
traffic without speed restric
tion) was a necessity if people
could get to their work. Many
are driving 60 miles to work
each morning.
“The trip to Tijuana, Mexico,
and the ocean trip to Catalina
Island followed by the excur
sion on the glass-bottomed boat,
were interesting as well as in
structive,” the Amelia pastor
continued.
“Who would not be thrilled
with the mountain highways of
Sequoia and Kings Canyon,
Yosemite, and Yellowstone na
tional parks? Words fail when
we attempt to describe the
hugeness of the trees, falls, can
yons, or the beauty of the
mountain slopes, colored rock
formations, lakes and wildlife.
“There was a tremendous lot
of water stored for irrigation (
purposes and more arid and des
ert lands than we ever imagined
existed.
“We made a brief tour of the
Thermopolis hot springs and
bath house regions arriving
home with a conscious knowl
edge that there is truly a won
derful, powerful and loving Cre
ator. who still lives and answers
prayer,” Reverend Dixon com
mented.
“The trip was made in a 1939
sedan having 101,477 miles on
it and the 4,570 miles cost less
than m cents per mile for gas
and oil. We had one flat at Ains
worth caused by a cut on the
casing and this happened while
parked.”

AGAINST THE PUBLIC AND INDUSTRY AND AGRICULTURE SERVED BY FIVE WESTERN RAILROADS
t
President Truman’s EMERGENCY BOARD recommends a 40-hour week and a pay increase
of 18 cents an hour, or $1.44 a day for switchmen represented by the Switchmen’s Union
off North America.
• Notwithstanding the tremendous increase in their
expenses involved, the
Railroads’ answer to Board is • •
Union leaders’ answer fo Board is • •
In face of Board findings to the contrary, union leaders insist on
48 hours pay for 40 hours work. This would be an average in
crease of 31 cents an hour, or $2.48 a day. So Union leaders
have called a completely unjustified strike on 5 Western rail
roads, effective June 25.
On June 15, an Emergency Board ap
pointed by President Truman under the
ferms of the Railway Labor Act recom
mended the railroads grant switchmen a
40-hour week and a wage increase of 18
cents an hour, or $1.44 for an 8-hour day.
Despite the added financial burden in
volved, the railroads are ready to accept
these recommendations, as they have al
ways accepted Emergency Board recom
mendations on national issues.
But the leaders of the Switchmen’s
Union refuse to accept! They demand an
average increase of 31 cents an hour or
$2.48 A day—although their present earn
ings are substantially higher than those of
workers in other industries!
Board Says Demands Unjustified
In its report, the Board declared this de
mand unjustified by all the evidence pre
sented. It also pointed out that it would
give the switchmen an unfair pay advan
tage over other groups of railroad em
ployes, and would add too great a burden
to railroad costs.
Here is another case of a railroad union
flouting the findings of an Emergency
Board—another case of calling a crippling
strike in an outrageous and reckless at
tempt to force demands which the Board
clearly labels as unjustified!
Leaders of the Switchmen’s Union are
calling this strike in defiance of the Board
—in defiance of the facts—and at the ex
pense of the public!
In its report on this case, the Board
made this statement:
"The railroad industry, the Board be
lieves, needs above ail else a period of
relative stability to ad|ust and adapt itself
to present competitive post-war condi
tions."
Despite this warning, the leaders of the
Switchmen’s Union are upsetting the
apple-cart—forcing a completely unjusti
fied strike against everybody who uses the
railroads.
FIVE WESTERN RAILROADS j
AFFECTED BY THE JUNE 25 STRIKE
The five railroads affected by
this strike, which goes into effer* j
of 6:00 A M. local time,
Sunday, June 25, 1950, are.
Chicago Great Western Railway Company
Chicago, Rock Island t Pacific Railroad Company j
The Denver & Rio Grande Western Railroad Company
Great Northern Railway Company j
The Western Pacific Railroad Company
It is time to put an end to such un
American tactics!
The Answer lo a Raw Attempt
At Dictatorship is "No!”
In the interest of the public who depend on
the railroads every day, there can be only
one answer to this outrageous and dicta
torial action by the leaders of the Switch
men’s Union. And that answer is—“NO I''
