J\ system in eastern Canada as well astheti.l.P. . His headquarters will be removed from the Union Station here to Montreal and he will leave to assume his increased duties on October 10. W. E. Duperrow, assistant general passenger agent, will handle the work done'by Mr. Hinton. While this does not appear as any. official promotion, -but rather an announcement of increased duties, it is a tribute to Mr. Hinton's ability especially in* view of the widening of the scope of power of this popular railroad official. i William Pittman Hinton was born at Hjntonburg, Ont, now ^artof Ottawa. His early railroad experience came in the audit department of the Canada Atlantic railway, and in 1887 he became general frieght and passenger agent of the same road. He entered the Grand Trvink Pacific service at Montreal in 1907 ancKvas appointed general passenger agent 1909 with headquarters, in - Winnipeg. Last, year further promotion came in his appointment as assistant general traffice manager and this last step follows quickly on the heels of the latter step upwards.
