KENDRICK'S 155 WEST CENTER ST. 1 long3 short long3 short Along the Union Pacific main line—between stations—a signal flashes red. The train slackens speed and stops. The engineer grabs the whistle cord... one long and three short blasts. That's a signal to the flagman. It is his duty to give adequate warning to any train following. To do so, he walks a sufficient distance to the rear to insure full protection. This is one of the many precautionary measures taken by Union Pacific—and other railroads—to protect passengers and freight shipments. Safe transportation becomes increasingly important in wartime. Trainloads of troops and essential materials are constantly on the move over Union Pacific's Strategic Middle Route uniting the East with the Pacific Coast. Just as the flagman protects his train, so is it the job of all Americans to provide for future security by buying bonds and saving them. Thus we can help stabilize industry and encourage the American trait of individual enterprise and initiative. * Listen to "YOUR AMERICA" on your favorite Mutual Network Station 1 to 1:30 P.M.
