FAIR PLAY IS PROMISED
FOR RAILROADS BY TAFT
T. J. Do|an Presents Labor's
Plea for Increase in
Freight Rates.

1.-The President told me he could be de-
pended on to give the railroads a square
deal, regardless Of clamor and political
influence: that, Furthermore, he was going
to see that they got It. y
This was the statement made today by
T. J. Dolan. general secretary-treasurer
Of the International Brotherhood OF
Steam Shovel and Dredge Men, after he
had conferred with President Taft rela-
tive to the proposed increase of freight
rates in all parts Of the country. now
pending before the interstate commerce
commission.
Labor Backs Up Railroads.
Mr.. Dolans organization has Joined
with the brotherhoods of railway men In
coming forward in favor Of the proposed
increase in rates. The brotherhoods are
actively at work lining up their member
ship for the contention of the railroads.
Mr.. Dolan said today that the labor or-
ganizations involved will take the fight
into politics, If necessary.
The labor organizations. after investi-
gation," said Mr. Dolan, "have reached
the conclusion that the proposed increases
of freight rates are fair and right, and
should be allowed. They will do every
thing in their power to bring this about.
Labor May Bear Burden.
without some increase the roads will
have to reduce expenses. The first men
affected under these circumstances are
those working for contractors-men be-
longing to my organization. Then the
reduction extends throughout the labor
world, affecting all classes having any
thing to do with railroad work.
THE hue and cry against the railroads
was all right for q time. Since they are
controlled by federal laws they ought
to be given a chance to do business with
out constant unfair Interference"
