Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book contains transcripts of a 1917 hearing before the House Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce. Employees and representatives from four railroad unions presented their case to increase the salaries of government inspectors responsible for enforcing railroad safety laws. Safety Appliance Acts and Boiler Inspection Acts were passed in the years prior. The legislation mandated safety features for railroad cars and locomotives, and established hours of service for train crews and telegraphers. The impact of the legislation on improving job site safety for railroad workers is thoroughly documented. The book also includes testimony from railroad company representatives. These leaders argued that the proposed salary increase was too generous and not justified. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
