DEMANDS OF R. R. TRAINMEN.
Wage Increase of $1oo,000,0oo Year
Would Have to Be Borne by Public.


The train service employees of all
railroad lines In the United States have
united in demand for new basis of
pay for all men engaged in operating
trains. except those in passenger serv-
Ice. At the present time they are paid
on the basis of ten hours of time or
100 miles of distance, whichever gives
them the higher pay; and every man
receives n full days pay, no matter
how short time he works.
The trainmen now demand that. in
all but passenger service, d) the pres
ent ten hours pay shall be given for
eight hours, or less, with guarantee
of full days pay no matter how lit
tie service is performed; (2) overtime
to begin after eight hours. instead of
after ten hours, and to be paid for at
one and one-half times the hourly rate.
These demands would increase the
hourly rate of pay 25 per cent, and the
overtime rate S71a per cent
They also insist that all special extra
pay provisions In the 1O-hour schedules
shall be included in the proposed
S-hour schedule.
TheSe' Speclal rules frequently give
double pay for the same service, and
enable the employees to earn two and
three days pay in single day of
ordinary working hours.
AS the increase for all the lines is es-
timated to amount to $100,00O0O0 a
year the railroads say that they cannot
pay 1t unless they are allowed to in
crease freight and passenger rates.
The average wages of the men en-.
gagged in train service are already very
much higher than those of other en-
ployees and they receive 2S per cent of
the total payroll although constituting
only 18 per cent of the whole number
sf railroad workers.

BUSINESS men TRY
TO AVERT STRIKE
Ask Congress to Direct U. S.
Inquiry Into R. R. Wages.
FOR PEACEFUL SETTLEMENT

Members of United States Chamber of
Commerce Vote Overwhelmingly In
Favor of Letting Interstate Commerce
Commission Adjust Controversy.
Washington.-In order to ascertain
the position of the business men of
the nation on the controversy between
the railroads Of the country and the
unions of train service employees, which
was precipitated by the demand of the
latter for an increase in wages that
would amount to S1OO,0OO,0O0 year,
the United States Chamber Of Com
merce recently submitted the mat
ter to vote of all its members. They
were asked to express their opinion as
to whether the dispute should be al
lowed to take its course with the pos
sibility of great strike that would
tie up all the transportation lines
throughout the country and paralyze
all business. or whether they would
favor the adoption to a joint resolu-
ton by the two branches Of congress
directing the Interstate Commerce
Commission to investigate and pass
upon the matter.
The vote received was a very large
one and represented business organ
izations in every part OF the coun-
try. The result was overwhelmingly
In favor of placing the matter in the
hands of the Interstate Commerce
Commission, 9S4N, votes being cast in
favor of this course and only 2SA
against 1t. The result showed clearly
that the business interests of the
country are unalterably against per-
mitting the transportation lines to be
tied up by n national railroad strike
that would paralyze the commerce of
the country and inflict enormous losses
on all classes of citizens.
Chairman Wheeler of the Commit
tee in charge of the matter for
the Chamber of Commerce appear
ed before the representatives of the
railroads and their employees at their
conference in New York in June. He
announced the result of the Com
mittee's inquiry among the business
men of the country and urged both
parties TO the dispute to get together
and adopt the course suggested. AS
result the committee of managers rep
resenting the railroads submitted
proposal that the whole subject be
placed before the Interstate Commerce
Commission as requested by the repre-
sentatives of the business interests.
AS an alternative they offered to sub
NIT the demands to arbitration under
the Federal law. Both offers We're
refused by the union leaders, who an
nounced that they would 90 back to
their unions and get authority to de-
clare n strike. This they have since
been doing.
Meanwhile resolution has been in
troduced in Congress directing the In
terstate Commerce Commission to
make an investigation of railroad
wages. This resolution is now await
ing action. 1t Is believed here that If
nothing further is done by Congress or
by the parties to the wage dispute to
bring about peaceful settlement the
business interests of the country,
through the United States Chamber
of Commerce. or some other organiza-
ton, will appeal to the Government
to take some direct and decisive action
to prevent the destruction of national
prosperity by a strike on all the rail-
road lines.
