RE1DING INCREASE.
Railroad FOllO7cs Lead of the
PENNSYLVANIA.

Philadelphia March 9O-FoIlowing the
action OF the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany, which has just announced a per
cent wage increase TO $4,000 employees on
all railroads connected with it's system east
and west OF Pittsburg. came an announce
ment from the Philadelphia & Reading
Railway Company late this afternoon of a
similar advance in wages TO it's men.
Like that OF the Pennsylvania, the Read
ing's increase affects all employees who re-
ceive less than 500 a month The Read
ings advance, however, does not include
those employees whose wages have been
adjusted within the last ninety days. From
time 10 time I'm the last three months the
Reading has adjusted wages of certain
classes OF trainmen and other employees.
Including these, the increase announced to-
day affects about 37,O0o employees
The general prosperous condition OF the
railroads and the high cost OF living are
given as the reasons for the increase an
nounced by both companies
The Pennsylvania Railroad increase af-
fects 195.0o0 men and involves an addition
Of about 100000 20 the payrolIs Of the
companies. This IS the third general VOL
untary increase in wages granted by the
Pennsylvania in the last eight years, or a
total of 1875 per cent
The company. i'm statement on the in
crease to-day, saws: The cost OF living has
shown a large increase when comparison is
made between 1910 and 1905, when prices of
the necessities of life were depressed. due
"a the panic"
The total payroll in 1909 for the lines par
tlctpattnE in the wage increase was $751;
s23S31- The increase affects the following
lines: Pennsylvania railroad. lines east /;
Cumberland Valley Railroad. Pennsylvania
companies. lines west; Nandalia Railroad.
Grand Rapids & Indiana Railway. New
York, Philadelphia & Norfolk Railroad.
The Pennsylvania Railroad statement
concludes:
While to the Pennsylvania the cost Of
labor has increased about 80 per cent over
what IL was eight years ago. the increase
in the cost of material has been far more
marked, some supplies costing to-day as
high al 80 and 20 per cent more than i'm
1917. So far this combined increase In tho
railroads cost Of living has been met to
a large degree by Increasing the efficiency
Of operation and without the railroad max
ing increases in the cost Of transportation. %
