BROTHERHOODS WILL
NOT ORDER STRIKE

Cedar Rapids, Ia, Dec. 3..-The rail-
way brotherhoods will not throw
down" the government during the war
crisis by ordering a strike. This was
the statement of A. B. Garretson, head
Of the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES to the
United Press today.
He was insistent, however that the
railroad workers were justified in ask
ing wage increases, not having re-
ceived penny increase in actual cash
for four or five years.
"The railroad workers in the classes
represented by the brotherhoods have
not received an increase in wages since
the increases granted in 1s12-13." Gar
retson said. "The present high cost of
living makes 1t impossible for the rail-
road workers to live with any degree
of decency on the wage scales granted
in 1912. A 1917 increase In necessary
to guarantee a 1911. living.

my mind and further than saying l
don't think it is the intention Of the
