PHILADELPHIA, March’ 12 (U. P)—A net iricome of $101,463,793 in 1942. was reported by the Pennsylvania railgoad yesterday, representing an increase of $49,084, 835 over the previous year. : Reporting a year “abnormal in every respect,” because of the war, the company said $30,380,000 of the net income was applied to retirement of the company debt (not incuding $11,351,700. of leased lines debt also retired), $2,718,231 to sink-. ing and other funs, $32,919, 385 to stockholders in’ dividends, andthe $35451,177 balance transferred to profit and loss, Operating revenues of $88,474,623 represented an increase of $224,433,459 over 1941, “due to increased traffiz and slightly increased passenger and freight rates,” but the rate increases: were offset by rate reductions of $32,000,000. on ammunition, fuel oil, soldiers’ travel and other necessary ‘military transportation, the company said. * Operating expenses of $554,140,727 showed an increase of ‘$111,463,451, ard taxes.of $124,578, 802, anircrease of 88 per cent,

Survey’ Shows.
Times Special
' WASHINGTON, March 12.—"Ab-
senteeism,” as it is called in industry, is costing the war effort in Washington “thousands — perhaps hundreds of thousands—of employee work days yearly, 8 survey of government bureaus by the Washington Daily News disclosed today. Attendance conditions emong federal employees varied widely, the newspaper said. In one bureau they were called “appalling”; in another, “quite satisfactory.” The check revealed: That most bureau heads do nok know the extent of absenteeism in their own agencies. That a great deal of excessive absence from work could be remedied quickly, in the opinion of personnel officials, : That government employees as a group are not guilty of flagrant unnecessary absenteeism, although if any federal offices are free of it. That wartime living conditions in Washington, rather than the workers or! the’ bureaus, are responsible for a7 ‘considerable amount of it. In’ the war’ ‘department, now making ‘own ‘survey of - absences among remployees, it: was estimated that-30- per cent of the pay checks must be returned: for revision each month ‘because of employees taking leave without, pay...
Blames Sickness’ The war production board, with
i | 14,500 employees, had 5000 applica-
tions for sick leave—with pay—in December. An official of the office of price administration said the situation there was “appalling.” The bureau of foreign and domestic commerce has experienced a 33 per cent increase of part-day leaves of absence. A labor department personnel director said: “We Have a problem, but it’s no more a problem than elsewhere. One of our troubles
tors: who certify to it.” At the office of war information, with 1500 employees here, 1200 leave-of-absence applications were received in January, many of them for brief periods. An official of the federal communications commission said employees there “post leave slips all day long,” The agricultureal adjustment ' administration reported 335 sick leaves among 929 workers in January; had 594, sick leaves among 1916 employees in the same month last year. The census bureau: said that 17,955 work days out-of a; possible 115,700—about 15 per. cent—were Jost in January because of shsences, with or without pay, :among "its 4450" employees at Suitland, Md.
Lists Causes The Daily News listed these as the main causes of absenteeism. Indifference to and ignorance of ‘the problem among top federal officials; lack of a co-ordinated government campaign against unwarranted ‘absences; wartime pressure and confusion in. crowded Washington; transportation difficulties; idleness in some bureaus, and increased pressure and strain in others, since the recent extension of the work week to 48 hours; winter weather and cold epidemics; inability of working - wives to obtain domestic help: bad air in some buildings, low temperatures in others; food and fuel rationing troubles; inadequate personnel _ ‘and ' employee-relations programs; ‘shortage of physicians and absence ‘of medical programs in ; shopping difficulties; sickfleave Toauests from: empldyess
"mimes these remedies:
as istry yon ‘more emphasis on car pools to ease transportation’ difficulties; day nurseries for children of working mothers; some degree of priority .on domestic help for working wives and mothers; legislation to develop and expand medical pro- | grams; expansion of employee-rela~ tions programs; adjustmefit. of busi-
