road workers into three classes and for each it establishes an adjustment boar and appeal commission. No pen Ity against strike or lockout is imposed, and membership on all six of the boards would be restricted to the workers and their employers, and di- vided equally between them.
 Both the roads and the employees would be directed by the plan. as writ ten into the bill. ito exert every req sonable effort and adopt every avail able means to avoid an interruption of traffic.
 The three adjustment boards would each deal with disputes of certain classes of the fourteen railway unions. One board would include representa- tives of the four big brotherhoods- the engineers, the firemen. the con ductors and the trainmen; another would include the machinists, the boil ermakers, the clacksmiths. the carmen, the sheet metal workers and the cleo trical workers; and the third would in clude the telegraphers, the switch men, the railway clerks, and the way and shop laborers. Railway executives would name four. six and four repre- sentatives, respectively, as members of these boards.
 Corresponding to each board there also would set up a commission to consider appeals, which could be sent to them by half the members of a board. These commissions would be of the same size as the boards. with the same method of choosing members obtaining. but with duality of mem bership between boards and commits sions prohibited. Headquarters of all six tribunals would be in Washington.
