Safety Signs and Scattered Sayings From the Firemen Fraternity
The Tri-State Annual Convention of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen met in the Municipal Auditorium with morning and afternoon sessions. C W Maier highlighted the Brotherhood's history including 1893 World Congress of Labor events and Coxey’s army, while pension and insurance issues drew most discussion. An evening lecture by Dr W Maier on locomotive life was noted and a Ladies Society luncheon in Amarillo honored Mrs Agnes G Strong.
