“Quality Plus Service"
J. A. Droege, general superintendent
of the New York division of the New
York, New Haven‘and Hartford rail-
road. in an address delivered at the
weekly luncheon of the Norwalk Ki-
wanis Club. held at the Royal James
Hotel. urged members or the club to
have forebearance with the poor serv-
ice rendered by the railroad at the
present time. He declared that the
two chief reasons for the break-down
in the service were the direct result of
the coal strike and the shopmen's
strike. Mr. Droege declared that the
New Haven road was making strenu-
ous efforts to improve both the pas‘
scnger and freight service.
In the opening or his address.
Superintendent Droege explained that

ford Railroad was giving service that
was really good a year ago. Today,
however, M-r. Droege admitted that
the service was had. A number of
conditions caused the break-down in
the service. the speaker explained.

tendent Droege, “we have had more

other year since 1884. This snow has
ln‘terferred with eastern connections,
making our trains late. We have had
scares or men or: on account at slck~
ness." * - .
"The principal reason tor the break;
down in service, however. is the result
of .the coal strike. and of the strike of
the shopmen. For five months,’ the
coal miners and mine owners held up
the settlement of the strike. Then the
railroads were expected to transport
enough coal in two months to make
up for the five, mohths' lost time. At
times, the New Haven road had only
forty-eight hours’ supply or cool on
hand and it was poor stuff at that."
“The shopmen walked out on strike
on July 11. This strike was not
sought by us. The ehopmen had no
grievance against the railroad. They
simply did as they were ordered» by
men a hundred miles away. W’e. uh.

These new men were in many cases
lax-service men; men who had been
over-seas. Many of the railroads set-
tled with the strikers; we didn't. \Ve
promised these men permanent poul-
tions and they are going to have
them."
"There are many other things inter-
fering with good service on the road.
W'e have had 168 hose lines cut in the
past few months; wo‘ have had as
many as four hot-boxes on trains from
New York to Boston before the trains
reached Stamford. But I can give you
my assurance that we intend to im-
prove the service; it is improving.
Never before in the history of the road
have officials and employee of the
New Haven road strained every re-
source more than the present time to
improve the service.”

agent or the New Haven railroad. was
another guest at the luncheon. He did
not spunk. however.
