The Snowflake herald., 1916-09-08


A 100 million dollar wage increase for
men in freight and yard service Qess than
one-ffth of all employees is equal to S per
cent advance in all freight rates.
The managers of the railroads. as trustees
for the public, have no right to place this
burden on the cost of transportation to you
without clear mandate from public tri-
bunal speaking for you.
The railroads have proposed the settl le-
ment of this controversy either under the
existing national arbitration law, or by refer
encc to the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion. This offer has been refused by the
employees representatives.
Shall nationwide strike or an
investigation under the Gov
ernment determine this issue?
