How was it met? On the Williamsburg Bridge a trolley car, running “wild,” smashed fnto another car, injuring passengers and tying up traffic By whose | neglect were the brakes “out of order?” On the Brooklyn Bridge an imperfect draw-bar in a shuttle train “ eauised the worst blockade in five years. It put many lives in peril, The surging of the crowd bent the steel guard rail, By whose oversight was the draw-bar faulty? Here again “defective mechanism” has been to blame. But who is to blame for defective mechanism? Not the motorman who sticks to his post in face of certain injury. The record of employees is clear by co parison with that of a management which hazards the passengers’ safety to squeeze out larger dividends through criminal “economies of opera- tion.” THUMB NAIL SKETCHES, \JECT—Charlea F.
