Excerpt: ...it good practice to require the man who uses a pneumatic drill to draw a squirt oil-can, a hand-oiler, from the tool room, at the same time the drill is issued to him, and use it frequently, so as to keep the drill well lubricated. We also require the pneumatic tools, both hammers and drills, to be turned into the 'tool room every night.-The man in charge of the tool room is also requried to personally see that the hammers are all submerged in the oil and that the drills are all well oiled. ' ' The PRESIDENT--We would be glad to hear from Mr. Hawkins, of the D., L. & W.? MR. HAWKlNS--Mr. President: About all I can say is in regard to two new 'ways we have found for compressed air in the past month. Since the advent of the grease cup on the locomotive main rods and side rods. we have made a machine for filling a cylinder full of grease, putting an air pressure on it, and moulding it in a long stick, like a sausage, and chopping it off. The, boys call them "Buffalo tablets." A few days ago, while going around the machine shop, I noticed a machinist had a 10 x 24 auxiliary reservoir on the floor, with a little valve in the bottom of it, to which a hose was attached. On the cnd-of the h0se'he had a nozzle and he was drilling some holes in the bottom of a frame.

Excerpt: ...I say in regard to this is absolutely the truth, yet knowing these things, what I desire to know is what is being done to correct it, and what would you suggest. This is certainly one weak point, yet of great importance, and if we can in the course of our discussion point out a way to improve these conditions, my efiort to bring this to your attention will have been worth while. By S. C. Roth, Freight Agent, Pennsylvania System, Buffalo, N. Y. I believe the question of "Errors in Billing" should be approached from three angles--cause, effect and remedy. PRATT & LETCHWORTH CO., Malleable & Steel Castings THE CAUSE Under the caption of cause, you find many contributing factors, such as illegible and improperly prepared shipping orders, which is a shipper's responsibility, transposition of figures in using mechanical devices, omission of specific routing instructions shown on shipping orders, omission of items shown on shipping orders, excessive speed operations nearing closing periods to avoid train delays, dispatch of cars from industries before shipping instructions are available, move ment and delivery of cars in switching service before shipping instruc-' tions are in the possession of road haul carriers, application of rates not in conformity with routing instructions and failure of billing clerks to properly transcribe information shown on shipping orders. These failures result in the following. ' Traffic is improperly loaded and dispatched resulting in delays, extra handling costs and increase of the susceptibility of certain classes of commodities to damage. When the number of items is improperly shown, exceptions reports must be prepared and investigations made before such errors are rectified. If specific...
