. .O. l'm nearly out of oil and the oil
There is no man who loves the
railroad, and has given me a lot
of railroad stories and inform-
ation, as my good dependable
friend, Mr. Oscar B. Yancey.
He is always ready and willing
to come up with an interesting
item or article. I surely app-
reciate his kindness. The other
day he sent me a copy of "The
Chesapeake and Ohio Employ-
ees Magazine" dated April 1921,
and his son, Mr• Harold Yan-
eey, who is a retired Carman,
brought it to me.
This C&O Employees Maga-
zine was edited in the interest of
the C&O employees and the
public generally, and it deals in
safety first• The following div-
isons of the Chesapeake and
Ohio Railroad were listed: New-
pert News, Va. Cincinnati, Oh-
io, Richmond, Va•, Clifton For-
ge, Va., Huntington, W. Va.
Logan, W. Va. Greenbrier, W.
Va., Hinton, W: Va. C&O of
Indiana, Ashland, Ky., and Big
Sandy. The magazine also con-
tained the statement of injuries
to the employees and the st-
atement of casultles. There
were many suggestions by the
West Virginia University

• .FARM- CITY WEEK, Nov-
ember 16- 22. This year marks
the 25th anniversary of the
National Farm-City Council, a
group of organizations interest-
ed in bringing about better
officials and employees pract-
icing safety first. There is also
an old photograph of a wood
burner engine, and it was pre-
sented to Mr. C.C. Michie,
Assistant Secretary, by Mr.
Gee. C. Tyler, brakeman for the
Chesapeake and Ohio Railway,
. 1866 to 1873, at some time during
which period the photograph•
was made• "As may be seen she
was a wood burner, and little
more than a puff of steam as.
.compared with the Moguls of to-
day 1921), but Mr. Tyler says
she was capable of some sp-
eed, and to the boys manning
and following her in other days,
she was a."Big un."
Stops were made for wood at
Noel, Melton and Ivy, and st-
ages were met at Staunton,
Jackson River ( Clifton For-
ge), Covington and White Sul-
phur.
The crew is shown in the
photograph and are, reading
from right to left, Martin Al-
ley, engineer; Gee Smith, fire-
man; Gee. C. Tyler and a Mr.
Haynes, brakeman• The condu-
ctor of the crew, J.B. Finks, is
not shown, and the fifth party (
on top the cab) was a little Irish
boy, who doubtless was feeling
" boyhood's ambition" to be an
engineer when he was a man."
There were also a photogr-
aph of the "D.D. Sewing Club "
of ltuntington, W. Va. and it was
eompesed of twelve girls, most
of whom were C&O employees
at Huntington, W. Va. The
names of the girls in the photo-
graph were : Mrs E.F. Par-
kins, Mrs. Nina Williams, Miss
lvo Sauer, Mrs. C.B. Stinnett, at
whose home the photograph
was taken; Mrs. J.P. Saun-
ers. Miss Eva Cooke. Miss

Miss Lettie Halstead, Miss Eth-
el Cartwright and Miss Ern-
mend) has called us "Delight -
ful Debutantes," which we are
very proud to own to our many
inquiring friends. The object of
the club is to 'get together and
bring our sewing and to help
those who do not understand
sewing. Already three trous-
seaus have been made since the
club was organized, and from
the looks of things, we bel-
ieve that a couple more ar
under headway. Our name is "
Delightful Debutantes," our
watchword, "Safety First", our
slogan, ,'When do we eat," our
colors, Blue and Gold and our
aim , "To make good hus-
bands, economical and efficient
wives."
A large number of meritor-
ious acts were reported to the'

on trust. The treaty pro-
hibits interference with na-
tional technical means of
verification or/eny deliber-
ate concealment measures
which impede verification of
compliance with treaty pro-
visions;
--The treaty prohibits So-
viet testing, production or
deployment of the SS-16, a
mohile ICBM. Soviet pro-
duction of the Backfire
bomber is also limited by
agreement.
During the almost seven
years of negotiations on
SALT II--under both Re-
publican aml Democratic ad-
ministrations-the Soviets
made several concessions. If
the treaty negotiations were
to be reopened--as some
pcople suggest--the Soviets
would want to renegotiate
these concessions. It is
likely that the sulting
treaty would be less favor-
able to the U.S., or, even
more probably, there would
be no treaty at all. The
Soviets also could develop
and deploy weapons that
are banned under SAI/I' II,
while the treaty was heing
renegotiated.
Our European allies
strongly support the treaty,
and rejection of it eouhl
rais(: serious questions about
U.S. stability and le:der-
ship. The cohesiveness of
the Western alliance wouhi
he urulermined.
Senate ratification of the
SALT II treaty wouhl not
mean that we are doing the
Russians a favor, nor does
it imply approval of the So
vieL, or their system of
government. Ratification is
d,:sirable because the treaty /
is in our own interest, and
wouhl contribute to our
national security.
understanding between the rur-
al and urban segments of soc-
iety.
Included on the roster are
businesses and industries, ag-
ricultural, professional, and

and youth groups, service or-
ganizations, educational institu-
tions and associations, and agri-

The Farm- City Council is a
.... loosely structured non profit, ...... ...... .........
organization with " headqt- . " ' "..'.."ii
ers" at' the Kiwanis Inte'rnai-
ional Building in Chicago. Kiw-
anis acts as the " coordinating
agency" for the Farm- City
Council. The Council's year-
long effort is climaxed annually
by National Farm- City Week,
an obsevance that traditionally .
ends on Thanksgiving Day. As
many as 15,000 to 20,000 rural
and urban areas are expected to
participate in this year's Farm-
City Week observance Novem-
ber 16- 22.
Theme for the 25th anniver-
sary year is "Farm and City--
Partners in Economic Progress
; WithPride in the Past and
Faith in the Future."
Though the basic purpose of
the Farm-City Council is to
bring about better understand-
ing between the rural and ur-
ban segments of society, it has
modified ils emphasis at times
to help solve the most pressing
problems of the rural- urban
relationship--problems such as
those brought on by large num-
bers of marginal farmers ent-
ering the urban society, the
impact of ecological restrict-
ions on artificai aids to food
production, and the ever-grow-
ing cost of the family market
basket.
Today's farmer feeds his fam-
ily and 56 other people with the
widest variety of foods in the
world at the least cost. Food
costs have risen less than the
costs of other goods and ser-
vices. The major factor in con-
tinued food prices increases at
the store has been the cost of
getting food from the farm to
the retail counter.

Q-- Will the Veterans Adm-
inistration make sure that a
home bought by a veteran with
a VA guaranteed loan is free

authority to guarantee that a
home is free of defects. The
government guarantees the
loan, but it cannot under the law
guarantee the house.
Q-- I am enrolled in school
under the GI Bill. I need an
education loan. Can I get a lodn
from the Veterans Administrat-
ion?'
A-- Yes, if certain require-
ments are met. The maximum
amount is $2,500 during any one
academic year.
Q-- As a disabled Vietnam
veteran, what are my chances
of employment with the fed-
eral government?
A-- The United States has a
policy of promoting maximum
job opportunities within the fed-
eral government for qualified
disabled veterans. Veterans
may inquire at any Veterans
Administration office, but more
specific informaiton may be
obtained by contacting the Fed-
eral Job information Centers of
the U.S. Office of Personnel
Management.
Q-- How are Gl insurance
dividends computed?
A-- Dividends are based on
the face amount and plan of
insurance, length of time in
force, age of insured, and num-
ber of months for which prem-
iums are paid during the policy
year, as well as interest earn-
ings and mortality experience
during the year.
