help speed today's new trains and provide transportation tools valued at $20,000 for every Illinois Central worker.
It's savings like yours, invested over several generations, that have helped build the Illinois Central and other railroads. On the Illinois Central such investment has added up to some 765 million dollars roundly 20,000 for each of the 40,000 members of our railroad family. c With the tools provided by this investment, each Illinois Central worker last year moved 1,350 passengers and 1,700 tons of freight. The 'ability to provide such tools depends on what is left over after paying operating expenses and taxes. On the Illinois Central this amounted in 1946 to 3H of the present investment. For all railroads it was" 2. Both are far short of the 6 most people think is needed. Railroads must earn enough to sustain and improve their service for the sake of those who look to them for transportation thosa whose friendship and patronage the Illinois Central is determined to continue to deserve.

cording to Mr. H. L. Alberty,

will be covered, regardless of
how or where it occurred," said Mr. Alberty. The new sickness benefits, like the benefits now payable for unemployment due to lack of work, will be financed entirely through taxes paid' by the. railroads under the Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act. No tax for this purpose will be paid by the employees. . Here is how the new program will operate: .To become eligible for benefits after July 1, the employee must (1) have earned $150 or more in railroad employment in 1946, (2) be unable to work for at least 7 days out of a consecutive 14-day period,-and (3) mail an application and a doctor's liiir DIGESTIVE TRACT And Stop Dosing Your Stomach Wiih Soda and Alkalizers Don't expect to get real relief from headache, sour stomach, gas and bad breath by taking soda and other alkalizers if the true cause of your trouble is constipation. In this case, your real trouble is not In the stomach at all. But in the intestinal tract where 80 of your food is digested. And when the lower part gets blocked food may fail to digest properly. . What you want for real relief is something to "unblock" your lower intestinal tract. Something to clean it out effectively help Nature get back on her feet. Get Carter's Pills right now. Take as directed. They gently and effectively "unblock" your digestive tract. This permits all 6 of Nature's own digestive juices to mix better with your food. You get genuine relief from indigestion so you can feel really good again. Buy Carter's Pills today. "Unblock" your Intestinal tract for real relief from indigestion.
Mr. Alberty went on to explain that the amount of benefits an employee may receive will vary from $1.75 to $5.00 a day depending upon the amount of his 1946 earnings! The lowest rate $1.75 is for the employee
who earned from $150 to . $199 t
and the highest $5.00 is for the man who made $2,500 or more. The maximum that any
a benefit
vesr ranges from $227.50 to
$650.00. This will provide benefits for a continued illness of 26 weeks after the 7-day waiting period. ' Since the benefits are intended as insurance against the wage loss resulting from disability, no benefits are pavable to employees who continue to . receive their , regular wages. vacation pay, or pay or time lost. Moreover, employees are not entitled to sickness benefits for any dav or days for which they are paid unemployment insurance benefits, or sickness, maternity, or unemployment compensation under the Railroad Retirement Act
l or the Social Security Act, and j the sickness benefits are greater,
only the difference may be paid. However, if employees belong to a railroad relief association or a fraternal order or carry insurance with a private firm and re
ceive benefits from one or more of these sources, they may be paid sickness benefits also. The freedom of employees who suffer work-connected disabilities to recover damages through court action or to make settlements v with their employees is not affected in any way by the sickness insurance program, Mr. Alberty said. The law provides,
however, that if sickness benefits
are paid for the same disabiliety, the Board is entitled to recover the amount of the sickness from the railroad out of' the settlement.

The nation has put the maintenance of a strong, alert, defensive force squarely up to you. This is the only country in the world that dares to raise and maintain a million-man Army by voluntary enlistment, in the American tradition! The duty of keeping our Army ready for emergencies is shared by every
citizen -for never before, in peacetime, has the need for it been greater. Our freedom, our ideals, the safety of our homes ' and families, depend on a world peace backed by

firmness and justice. It's your Army nowyours to keep strong. Joining the Army as a volunteer may mean some sacrifice to you. On the other hand, you have much to gain from the experience.

And in addition you will be entitled to educational benefits under the GI Bill of Rights, if you enlist before Congress officially
terminates the war. Before making your decision, get the full story of this career opportunity at your nearest U. S. Army Recruiting Station.
