WASHINGTON, Sept. Awhile
railroad trackmen have declared by
a vote of $4,000 to $4,000 that the
wage advance offered by President
Wilson Is not acceptable as a meas
ure of settlement of their demand
they have decided to leave the ques-
tion OF a strike in the hands of in
ternational officers, 1t was announced
today.
1t was announced today that the ex-
ecutve council OF the railroad en-
ployes department American fedora
tion of labor would not put the strike
vote into effect until the outcome of
the government effort to reduce the
cost Of living had been become ap-
parent.
Representatives Of the 100000
United Brotherhood of Maintenance
of Way and Railroad Shop laborers
asked the railroad wage board today
to adjust their wages in accordance
with the principle laid down by
President Wilson In approving ad-
justment last week for the railroad
shopmen.
The board was told that the men
adhered to the Presidents decision
and there should be no general in
creases of wages while government
agencies were actively seeking to re-
turn economic conditions to normal.
But that they felt the inequality in
pay existing among the employees of
different railroad systems should be
corrected. The maintenance of way
men and shop laborers, the spokes-
men said, received the lowest rate of
pay of any class of men in railroad
service.

derstood perfectly we'll the economic

situation. j, w Jennings, local mana
ger of the Consumers Light and Pow
