Hearing by Board
Federal Labor Tribunal
Declines to Consider
Issue Of Wage Raise

WASHINGTON, April 2o.-Applica-
tions of unauthorized strikers for hear
ings on their demands for living
wage were denied to-day by the Rail-
road Labor Board, after Chairman
Barton had ruled that any one might
file a complaint, but that it was for the
board to determine whether the dis
putc was one which the law empowered
1t to adjust.
In its reply to Edward McHugh. Of
New York, who filed a brief as citizen
the "existing emergency" as we'll as
formal complaint the board said
it declined to authorize the applica-
ton to be filed and docketed as a case,
because it did not comply with the law
and with order No. l.
Order No provides that no COM
plant will be entertained from any
parties who are not using every effort
to avoid any interruption to the op-
Grafton Of the railroads.
Chairman Barton announced that the
same ruling applied to the applica-
tions of the St. Louis and Chicago
yardmen's associations or any other
body which had not complied with the
rules adopted by the board.
Principal demands of the Brother

President w. N. Doak include:

Old Clothes Crusade
-Assailed by Tran, ps

Members of the Old Clothes
Club, who have been in good
and regular standing for years
and years, met yesterday in New
. ark to protest against the spread
of the movement and sent a dele
cation to the Mayor to make that
protest formal.
The burden of the complaint of
those who hitherto have had tho
privilege of wearing the cast-off
clothing of other persons, was,
What we goin' to wear if they
quit castin' them?"
This ove1slls and old clothes
movement hits US harder than
any one else," the leader Of the
delegation, a we'll known lounge
lizard in one Of Newark's most
popular ''dop houses" told the
Mayor. Heretofore, every spring,
when folks began to clean up, we
inherited a wardrobe sufficient to
tide us over for the year. Nov
they're wearing their old clothes
and our wardrobes are on the
bum."

In Blue OueruIIS
Special Dispntch To The Tribune


PRINCETON, N. j., April 2o.-The
overall movement at Princeton got un-
der way this afternoon when some
seventy-fivc underclass men appeared
on the campus dressed in blue over
all suits. The suits are modelled after
painters overalls, which are always
worn by Princeton seniors in the
spring. The overall union is being
taken up enthusiast cally. and to judge
from the number of orders placed with
an enterprising student agency which
opened this morning, large percentage
of the undergraduates will be CARRIED
in the economical "hickories" before
the week is out. The wearing of over
alls on the campus as a part of the
nation-w wide move to bring down cloth
ing prices was advocated by the senior
council at a meeting last night. Every
pair in town was sold tonight
The Daily Princetonian," in an edi-
torial, which started the movement,
says:
I'VE might go step further and ad
vocate overalls. The seniors will soon
settle the problem by wearing beer
suits, but the members of the three
lower classes will still have TO wrangle
with the taiors. Why not dark blue
or near beer suits for these men? We
