RAIL MEMS PAY RAISE PLANT
Thousands Write Director EcAdoo
That Increase Is Delayed.

Railroad employees have written
thousands Of letters to tho railroad
administration that they have not yet
received pay increases under Director
General McAdoo's wage order, and
that their working hours have not
been changed to conform with the
eight-hour basis established by that
order.
The railroad administration today
explained that accounting difficulties
on many roads have delayed the COM
putation of new wages. and urged
railway executives to mako haste to
start the higher wage payments. The
eight-hour work day principle as es-
| tablished does not have the effect of
shortening working days to that many
hours, but fixes eight hours as the
basic day for figuring compensation.
Overtime in some occupations is
figured at pay and a half. and over
| time now begins at the end of the
eight-hour period. Any future ar
rangements for extra pay for ever
| time also will make the eight-hour
basis of practical Importance.
