Snider to Work
for Train-Savers
Retired Editor Will
Travel C&NW Line
M. H. Snider, 57, retired edi
tor-publisher of the Clearwater
Record, has been named special
traveling representative for the
Save-the-Trains association — a
group of North-Nebraskans or
ganized for the purpose of stim
ulating revenue for the last two
passenger-mail-express trains, 13
and 14, operating between Oma
ha and Chadron on the Chicago
& North Western railroad.
Snider was hired at a meeting
of the officers and directors of
the S-T-A held last week at
Ainsworth.
Snider is commencing his work
with only one month remaining in
the eight-months’ experimental
period. C&NW claims the two
passenger - mail - express trains
have been operating with a 60
thousand-dollar annual loss. In
November, 1954, an experimental
period with streamlined equip
ment was begun to determine if
revenues could be increased.
Association President Carroll
(“Cal") Stewart, O'Neill publisher,
said Snider has a lifelong in
terest in the area and has been
active in the train-saving move
ment since it was founded six
months ago. Clearwater is a
C&NW point about midway be
tween Norfolk and O’Neill.
Snider disposed of his news
paper about a year ago—a
newspaper outstanding for a
town the sire of Clearwater
(pop. 500)
In helping to build passenger,
mail and express revenues for
these two trains, Snider will work
from Omaha to Chadron and all
intermediate points. His activities
also will take him to the Black
Hills area. One of the objectives
of the association is to have pas
senger service extended to Rapid
City, S.D., 102 rail miles north of
Chadron.
District Judge Lyle E. Jackson
of Neligh said the association is
“indeed fortunate in acquiring the
services of Mr. Snider, who long
has been active in affairs of
Antelope county”.
John Cassel, president of the
Ainsworth Chamber of Commerce,
said Mr. Snider would be invited
to launch his train-saving activi
ties in Ainsworth.
Fay Hill, Gordon rancher, of
fered a resolution of appreciation
from the S-T-A in behalf of
State Sen. Frank Nelson of O’
Neill, who introduced and was
primarily responsible for the en
actment of LB 554 in the current
session of the Nebraska legis
lature. The law, which has been
signed by Governor Anderson,
amends the old full train crew
law to permit dropping of the
flagmen on trains 13 and 14.
The enactment of LB 554 en
ables the C&NW to shave “out
of pocket” expenses from 28
to 30-thousand-dollars annual
ly.
Passenger revenues are up sub
stantially with most of the in
crease shown at stations from
Neligh west. Most stations east of
Neligh have declined in passenger
revenue compared to 1954.
Declines in express revenues
have been arrested, S-T-A offi
cials explain. The government has
promised increased postal reve
nue, but the additional mail has
not yet been put into effect.

trician’s mate second class, USN,
son of Mr. and Mrs. Glenn R.
Davy of Lynch was awarded a
good conduct medal while serv
ing aboard the oceanic non-mag
