COMMISSION ON
RAILWAY WAGES
MAKE FULL REPORT
Would Increase All Salaries as
Much as 43 Per Cent On AC-
count Increased Cost of Liv-
ing Brought on BY the War

WASHINGTON, May 9.-Brieny
stated. the railroad wage commissions
study of conditions showed that the
cost of living had increased since 1915
approximately forty-three per cent. 1t
therefore adjusted the wage scale of
employees, recommended to Director
General McAdoo so that the amounts
added to the monthly pay should
cover this increased cost.
The commission refers in its report
to the popular idea that railroad EN-.
ployes are among the highest paid of
wage earners and says:
at has been n somewhat popular
impression that railroad employees
were among the most highly paid
workers." says the report. But fig.
ures gathered from the railroad dis
posed of this belief. Fifty-one per
cent OF all employees during Decem.
Der, 1917, received SIS per month or
less. and eighty per cent received
800 per month or less.
Even among the locomotive engi
neers commonly spoken of as highly
paid, a prepondering number receive
less than $40 a month and this com.
pensation they have attained by the
most compact and complete organiza
ton handled with a full appreciation
OF all strategic values. Between the
grades receiving $3.50 to $3.50 pei
month there is included less than 3
per cent of all the employees (exclud
ing officials) and these aggregate less
than $4,000 men out of grand total
of 100000.
The greatest number of employees
on all roads, fall into the class re
ceiying between $50 and SOS pei
month 1893; while within the range
of the next $40 in monthly salary there
is total of 312.761 persons. In De.
cember 1917 there were HAT clerks
receiving annual pay of 5000 or less
In 1917 the average pay of this class
was but $56.77 per month. There were
27O,S55 section men whose average
pay as a class was S50.31 per month {;
l2l 900 other unskilled laborers whose
average pay was s5S25 per month;
130,075 station service employees
whose average pas was S91.1O per
month"
Employees who are now paid on the
mileage basis are to have their mile,
age rates increased as follows:
Road freight engineers and motor.
men 1874 per cent; road freight fire,
men and helpers 34h per cent; road
freight conductors, 2Oh per cent;
road freight brakemen and flagmen SO
X per cent; road passenger engineers

men.
The investigation of the commits
sion disclosed many inequalities OF
pay in the same branch of service.
In every case where the same services
rendered there should be the same
pay without regard to sex or race"
Mr.. McAdoo is expected TO an
nounce his decision on the recommen-
dations in about ten days. There are
indications that he will not accept
them in their entirety. Some union
officials already have expressed dis
satisfaction with the amounts recon-
mended for the men of their organiza-
tions the increases ranging from for
ty-three per cent downward to 4.6 per
cent, the highest paid men receiving
the lowest increases and the average
being l5.O2l per cent advance over
the 1917 payroll
