Pays Off to Keep BRT
Dues Paid, Tully Says

LOUISVILLE, Ky. It pays off to keep your dues paid up in the BRT-and M. E. Tully of Lodge 908 will vouch for that.

Tully, who has been employed on Kentucky & Indiana Terminal Railroad since Oct. 17, 1950, reports he is still being paid for time slips for air hose which he turned in as far back as 1948 while employed on Pennsylvania Railroad.

He was a member of Lodge 689, Jeffersonville, Ind., when he was employed by the Pennsy nearly 10 years. He transferred to 908 when he went to work for the K&IT, which switches for the Baltimore & Ohio, Monon and Southern Railroads.

"I have collected $350 since I left the Pennsy and more coming later," writes Tully.
