houses, according to Nelson Cunliffe
of this city, who yesterday addressed

Mr.. Cunliffe is president of the st.

Although there is an average of

annually there were only 10000
houses built in 1918 and 10000 in 1919.
Cunliffe declared. He suggested
that associations similar to the one
here be organized in every city to re-
lieve the house famine. Building costs.

EXECUTIVE SESSION
TRAIN DlSPATCHERS KICK
Object to Proposed Flat Increase of 80
Per Cent for all Rail Employees
Because Subordinates Would
Get as Much as They Do

Chicago, June 3.-Representatives of
the big railroad br~otherhoods yester.
day urged the United tSates railway
labor board to close its public hearings
and go into executive session to take
action on wage demands.
Through b. F.. Jewell, acting presl.
dent of the railway federated shop
crafts, the board also was urged to
grant an immediate increase of 1S
cents an hour to all railroad employees,
pending the final decision OF the body.
The board would endeavor to arrive
at a decision as soon as possible, II.
nj. Barton, chairman, said in reply,
but desired to give a hearing to all
groups entitled to come before it.
The board then listened to arguments
presented by J. G. Luhrsen, president
of the American Train Dispatchers' as
ISOLATION, a new organization in the
labor field.
Mr.. Luhrson said that the train dis
patchers and chief train dispatchers
receive 2h to 30 cents an hour less
than their subordinates.
The proposed 80 per cent increase
was objected to by the dispatchers on
the ground that it still left them with
salaries below the minimum paid to
their subordinates.
At the conclusion of the hearing 70.
L. Whittier, chairman of the railway
executives, declared that as his COM
mittee was unable to ascertain before
hand just what the dlspatchers' request
would be. his rebuttal could not be
properly prepared for today.
Chairman Barton overruled the OBJ
lection and said that the board would
meet as usual today to hear what re-
