Good News for the BOYS.

A recent dispatch from Wash
ington contains good news for the
many men employed at Spencer
by the Southern Railway Com
pany, The dispatch in question
says:
announcement is made here
in on officials quarter that the
Southern Railway will not reduce
the wages of its employees July LIST.
When the reduction was proposed
last March a strike was threatened
and, after many conferences be-
tween officials and representatives
of the railway employees, in which
Commissioner of Labor Neill and
Chairman Knapp, of the inter
state commerce commission acted
as Intermediates, action was de-
ferred until July 1, and the old
rate of wages was allowed to stand.
It was understood that if business
conditions remained unimproved
on July 1 a new wage scale would
be taken up for consideration. In
formation received at Washington
is to the effect that business in
the South is reviving, and that
the business and prospects of the
Southern are improving"
This is good news, but it would
give the WAToHMAN pleasure if the
dispatch-a also stated that the wages
of employees who were cut on March
LIST had been restored to the old
