is of this decision" the award says,
the continuance in full force and cf-
feet OF the rules, working conditions

shall be added to the rates of COM
pensation established bv the U. S.
Railway administration"
The award is reactive to May Of

grants to the railroad workers ap-
)roXimately GO pei cent of the bill
ion dollar increases which they
ought. Presidents of all the leading
,rotherhoods and representatives of
he railroad managers were present
when the decision was made public.
Whether the awards as given will
stave off the threat of a general rail-
road strike remains to be seen. An
Is per cent increase in freight rates
will be necessary to meet the wage

of the railroads in the HEARINGS be-
fore the railway labor b ard an

union presidents refused to make any
comment before the meeting The
approximate terms Of thU-~rirelsforI

Seven things were taken into con-
sideration at arriving at the award,

MAY APPEAL TO
UNITED STATES
T SUPREME COURT
Suffragists Will Take Action
if National Amendment
Is Not Adopted

The Vermone suffragists do not
propose to let Gov. Clement prevent
the women of the United States
from voting if they can help it and
if the suffrage amendment is not soon
ratified by the necessary Seth state
they will appeal to the United States
Supreme court to declare illegal Gov.
Clements veto of the Presidential
suffrage bill passed by the Vermont
legislature last year.
This was announced in a state
ment issued at suffrage State head
quarters at Burlington, where it is
said that local leaders are working
with the approval of Mrs. Carrie
Chapman Gait, National leader of
the suffrage movement.
The statement says that "the val
idity of the entire vote cast in Yer
mont for President" may rest on the
ruling of the Supreme Court.
Suffragists claim that while they
have contended all along that the
Presidential suffrage veto was illegal
they have taken no action, becausi
they believed that Vermont or some
other State, would soon become the
seth to ratify the suffrage amend
ment.
