RAILWAY AND Farm WAGES


The Executiy. Committee of III. A.
-cci.;ion OF Western Railways has is.
sued the following ata,ement:
Mr.. Farmer. once upon time-lik,
the railvays-you paid your empioycs
:, fixed monthly wage. They worked
till their work was done, no matte,
how many hours.
Your farmland followed a plow
behind a yoke of oxen perhaps from
sun up till sun down, then did his
'chores''-and was contented
more OF your capital in a good team
OF horses, to replace the oxen, your
rmploye had said
These horses turn more furrows in
q day than the oxen and hereafter l
want to be paid by the Iurrow, or the
distance the pillow travels. but in cas-"
anything stops the p!ow you must pay
me for Il full day ii | work 10 hours or
iess-if that plan would give more
money than the plow mileage amounts
to-.
Suppose that when you invested
more money in a wheel plow, on which
your cmploye could ride at ease in
furrow and wrestle with heavy plow,
lie said:
Hereafter | want you to pay me for
IA fulrday if ! work eight hours or less
or pillow "A fixed distance or less, with
time-and-a-half pay for overtime,
either on time or distance basis,
money"
Suppose, further. Mr. Farmer, that
from 1904 to 1914 you had increased
the wages of your farm hand from
s902.09 year to S1,253,37 year,
would you feel like granting his last
demand for more wages FOR doing oX-
actly the same work, i'll the same
hours?
That is precisely the question that
the railway managers OF this country
are now called ON to answer.
The men employed in railway train
service are demanding % per cent
increase in pay for exactly the work
they have been doing. and under the
same conditions, except as 10 pay.
As with the Farmland, the working
conditions of railway train service
men have been constantly improved at
the expense OF the employers.
Government statistics prove that the
hazard OF their occupation has stead
lily decreased. This is the result of
millions spent by the railroads for bet
ter roadbeds, heavier rails. double
tracks. block signals automatic coup
lers air brakes, mechanical stokers,
oil burning engines and many other
safety and labor Saving devices-for
which the employees made no invest
ment and assumed no financial risk.
The men who are now asking % per
cent higher pay arc and always have
been the best paid of all railway en-
ployes.
Their wages range from $500 year
for inexperienced brakemen to narly
S4 1000 a year for engineers on the best
runs.
The average wages of the 100000
employees who are demanding an in
crease are S1.253.37 a year, an in
crease of 40 per cent since 1904
The 100000 other railway en-
ployes average $6S4.7S year, an in
crease of 25.2 per cent since 1904.
These are the facts. Mr.. Farmer.
Will you think them over and then say
if you think the railway train service
employees are Justified in threatening
the prosperity of every industry in
this country. Of even the very exist
ence of individuals dependent for food
supply on uninterrupted railroad ser
vice?
