Editor e Paso Herald:
As a subscriber and reader Of The
FL Paso Herald. notice a letter 70
congressman Blanton signed by Col
bert ColdweI-
As am an exsoldier. also a rail-
road man. I an sure that Mr.. Cold
well does not understand the c0ndi-
tons under which railroad nan has
20 work

way, and was one OF the first $4,000
men TO arrive in France and was in
service over there just a few days less
than p months. III venture 70 say
that the railroad men gave a larger
percentage than any other class Of
working men in the world war.
He says don't grant the railroad
mems unjust demands" Row does he
know they are unjuste an sure that
he does not figure the expense a rail-
road man is compelled 10 pay away
from home. even il he knows our
wages
I venture to say that one-third or
the wages OF the railroad men are paid
out at the other end from his home
and let Us say that he earns $3.50 A
month. which is large. He pays $50
away from home, leaving 500 fo-
nome expenses there IS not a me-
chanic working in FL Paso who does
not get better wages than the railroad
nan
And the railroad nan has to work
every day, including SUNDAY. TO make
It seems as though the Z. 8 govern
ment does not think that the unions
or the railroad men are az fault for
the conditions existing today, as II IS
locating several means relating to The
reason. and II you viii notice, the rail-
road man is always willing to await
the decision Of some one who knows.
