rcsnted 1l5 OF the some coo roads of

between eighty and ninety per cent.
Of the total mil age.
The board today refused hearings
on the wage demands of striking
railroad employees at fhlladelphla

nized Chicago Express and Freight
Handlers Union.
Timothy Shea. vice president of the
brotherhood of locomotive firemen told

Shea continued today the representa-
tion of the firemen's demands calling
after tion to the hardship of their

relief to the men on duty on the lar
ger engines either 10y requiring the

said, are compelled to perform labor
