my personal opinion is that a spe-

Copies Of this letter are being sent
to all of the brotherhood members
with the request that they sign petit
ton demanding the repeal of the law

In the circular of the Railway Work
ers Non-Partisan Association TO
which the petition is attached there is
an analysis Of the law in the form of
questions and answers In reply to the
question as TO what would happen on
January 1 should the roads cancel
their agreements, the answer is THE
companies will interpret the law. and
should their Interpretation be disput-

disputed points to the courts"
Unions Practically Helpless.
Q. when new schedules are arbi-
trarily prepared by the companies on
January 1 what action can the unions
take?" A. None"
Q. "Why?" A. "The railroad man
ayers must interpret the law as ap-
piled to working agreements"
Q. Can the unions interpret the
law" A. "They can interpret the
law but cannot enforce their interpre-
tation."
Q. "Why?" A. THE managers are
responsible for handling the proper
ties and will have to apply the law as
they interpret it until the courts act"
Answering the question why the
brotherhoods could not strike if the
railroads work the men the full eight
hours regardless Of miles made. the
circular quotes Section 4 of the law
providing that any person violating its
provisions shall be guilty of a misde-
meanor, fined not less than 800 or
more than $1,000 OF Imprisonment for

in deciding the proper application Of
the new law as regards these matters
