RESIST
WAGE REDUCTION
BY THE JOURNALS Special wire.

BY THE JOURNALS Special Wire.
CLEVELAND. o.. Feb. 21.--"We viii
not stand for a reduction on the rail-
roads," said Warren s. Stone, Secre-
tary Of the Brotherhood Of Locomotive
Engineers today Some railroads have
announced that there will be gem
eral reduction. There are $4,000 men
in our organization" said Stone. They
work by the mile. The falling Off in
freight has already reduced the wages
of the freight engineers nearly 80 per
cent. The cost OF living is just as
high as II has ever been. We cannot
live on less money"
Would a strike be ordered on the
roads where reductions in the wage
-e~'~ are madeg Stone was asked.
There will be a strike. We won't
start TO fight until we get on the firing
line. You can put it as strong as you
like that there will be no cut in the
wages OF o..- e"'o'N engineers"
Stone is pleased with the action
President Roosevelt has taken urging
the Interstate Commerce Commission
to investigate railroads who have an
nounced that a cut would be made
Just why Stone Is so confident that
the proposed reductions will not be
made he will not say.
