ALL S. p. YARDMEN AT
SAN FRANCISCO STRIKE

San Francisco, Aug. 26.-All yard
men employed here by the Southern
Pacific railroad company went on
strike late today. The strike, which
involves men employed in caring for
engines in the yards here as well as
switchmen, went into effect as the
day shift went off duty and, railroad
officials said, UNEXPECTEDLY to them.
The men agreed to leave a sufficient
number of workers on duty to care
for the evening rush of commuters TO
nearby points.
Because of this, abroad officials
said, it would be impossible to tell de-
finitely how many men were involved
in the strike for some hours They
had said at first that all the yard
employees had quit work.
No statement of the mems reasons
for quitting work was made when
they walked out. Some of the strikers
said they had no knowledge of the
reason for the strike order them
selves.
Individual strikers, as they gathered
for meeting tonight, declared they
had left their work in sympathy with
the striking employees of the Pacific
Electric company at Los Angeles, and
that their action was taken without
the sanction of the international
brotherhood officers.
They said slightly more than 1000
men in the San Francisco yards had
quit work

PRESIDENTS Plan IS
REJECTED BY SHOPMEN

Washington Aug. 26.-The commit
tee of 100 representing the railroad
shopmen informed Director General
Hines today that they could not ac-
cept as a basis of settlement of their
demands the rates submitted to them
yesterday by President Wilson. They
were told by the director general that
the presiden'st proposition was final.
Results of the negotiations here
were communicated to the union To-
calls throughout the country, with in
structions that a strike vote shou d be
taken immediately to determine
whether the presidents proposals
should be accepted.
Pending the issuance of an official
strike vote, it was urgently requested
by International officers that all men
should remain on the job.
The committee of 100 representing
the shopmen was in session all morn
ing behind closed doors, considering
the decision of President Wilson and
Mr.. Hines on their wage demands
In his letter to the board Mr.. Hines
said it had been the constant en-
deavor since the first wage adjust
ments were made by the raj road adj
ministration, to deal fairly and impair
TALLY with all classes of railroad en-
ployes."
THE situation is so complex that
absolute perfection in this regard is
unattainable' he said,
No Retroactive Adjustment
The railroad administration has
been firmly committed to the policy
since last September that it cannot
make wage adjustments retroactive
back of date approXmating the date
upon which your board makes its re-
port, because otherwise there would
be amending confusion and all effort
to get measure as to the cost of con-
Quoting the railroads at any given
time in the past would be rendered
hopeless.
Il therefore hope that your board
Will be able to report promptly upon
any inequalies which may lie found to
exist, to the end that any correction
which the director general may find
appropriate can be made effective at
the earliest iustifiable date in ac-
cordance with the policy of the rail-
road administration
Proposition Final.
Director General Hines, according
to letter sent to the locals, told the
committee that the proposition, as
presented by the president, was final
and that there would be no wage in
creases granted to any other class of
railroad employees, as a class, but in
the event of unjust inequalities. as be-
tween individuals, adjustments involv-
ing increases to equalize rates of pay
would be made where justified. M
The committee thereupon informed
the locals that the director, general
had been advised that his proposition
Albuquerque morning journal. [volume] (Albuquerque, N.M.) 1903-1926, 1919-08-27

could not be accepted as a basis of
settlement by them and continued:
practically every class of railway
employees has now submitted requests
for very substantial increases over ex-
isting rates of pay. 1t is well that our
members give very serious considera-
ton to this fact if there is to be any
additional general increase in the
wages of railroad employees, the fed
Grated shop trades will receive the
same consideration. Don't fail to give
the statement careful thought
and don't forget that if the fed
Grated shop trades become involved
in a strike now, you are striking alone
to force an increase for the 100000
railroad employees.
"In view of the foregoing facts, the
statements contained in the presidents
letter and the, responsibility that must
be assumed, if a suspension of work
is to take place. your executive coun-
Gil has decided that it would fail in
its duty were it to authorize a strike
until the membership have had an OPP
portunity to decide their course of ac-
ton on this proposition. 1t is not our
intention to shirk any of our response
bilities as executive officers and the
wishes of a constitutional majority of
the membership expressed by their

Los Angeles, Cal, Aug. 26.--Pros-
poets for ending the walk-out of
trainmen which has tied up railroad
Yuma, Arizona, and virtually iso-
lated southern California, were not
encouraging tonight, according to
announcements by officials of the
companies involved and the striking
men.
Officials and employees of the Pa
cite Electric lines, a strike on which
precipitated sympathetic strikes on
the three steam lines reaching here,
issued statements late today refusing
to leCede from their original posi-
lions.
Representative of the big Four"
railroad brotherhoods today appeal
ed to members of other crafts who
contemplated striking to stay on
the job" The railroad men declared
they feared a general Walk-out of
organized labor would defeat the
aims of their own strike.
Additional railroad men quit at
Barstow, Yuma, Arizona, and Bakers
field, according to reports received
here, and officials of the lines en-
tering Los Angeles declared no trains
had arrived or departed during the
day.
Seven hundred of the 400 shop
men who walked out yesterday at
the railroad shops returned to work
today. They returned, they said, on
ADVICE of brotherhood officials who
told them their strike would not help
the trainmen.
Disposition of mail that has been
accommodating here for several days is
a problem, postoffce authorities are
trying to sloVe. They announced that
nail destined for the east and north,
as well as San Diego would be dis
patched by boat but the problem Of
handling mail to various towns in
southern California, of which there is
quite volume, had not been solved.
Much of this would be handled by
Pacific Electric trains, but there still
remains a vast amount to be sent to
communities where only steam lines
touch.

In asking you whether you have really seriously considered
and appreciated this business force have in mind the
thousands upon thousands of manufacturers who daily
increasing their business by this method degree greater
in magnitude and cosles in proportional expense than
through any other possible medium.
We have in mind that practically every big and progressive
business institution in the United States is periodical
advertiser
We have in mind that the little fellows of few years
back who today are fast becoming predominant and pre-
eminent in their field longer little because they did
consider and appreciate periodical advertising.
WHY ahoud these things be?
Tt yer Of any product selects the brand he she knows
bca inks be best the price he she is willing to
pay
1t is therefore obvious that the task presented the
acurer in order produce the greatest number of sales
of creating such impression in the minds of the great
est possible number of ultimate consumers.
The function of advertising the accomplishment of that
task whether be word of mouth advertising from
sumer to consumer booklets folders circular letters, ETC.;

advertising All are good All should be used

should not be overlooked because the inexpensive
the most effective and the way to insure the
greatest possible results from all forms of advertising used
as well as from itself

Consider that fact seriously You will appreciate it if you

value at the lowest possible price
Again when you appeal the ultimate consumer through
periodical advertising your message is actually beng pad
