preston that the national adjustment
boards were able TO deny TO the raj,
roads opportunity to confer wit
workers about conditions arising from
wage and other agreements. His pur-
pose WAS to mislead public opinion.
and there Is a chance that he has
done So The press has been at no
pains to amplify the disingenuous
position taken by this spokesman
for the railroad interests
What Mr.. Atterbury Is really de.
manding is that railroad Officials
shall be given the right 10 determine
all controversies with their employees.
Until the adjustment boards were
established they always had the final
word In such questions. The wo- ~a
could accept their decision or rssort
to the only alternative, the at q
This they were not willing TO do. nd
frequently were compelled TO accept
with the best grace possible arbitrary
and unfare rulings made by railroad
managers.
The national adjustment boards
were established solely that the work
ers nigh; have court OF appeal
when they regarded the Judgment OF
managers as unfare. Claimants, how
ever. were not privileged TO pre- ent
their causes to these boards until
after they had exhausted every effort
to obtain a fair hearing from employ
ers. The usual course followed H.
such cases must be adhered to until
the final railroad authority has made
his decision. Then and only then
could ali appeal be made to the labor
boards.
These boards were composed equal
ly of Representatives OF the railroads
and workers organizations. Decisions
were always made by majority yoie.
The Director General of Railroads
maintained the right to veto, alter or
approve such decisions. There - s
no chance for collusion, since the rail-
roads were always represented by
trusted officials OF their own selec-
ton
II is an interesting sidelight on this
controversy that in practically ninety
five per cent of the appeals made TO
the adjustment boards the decision IA.
vored the workers. They were able
to convince the representatives OF the
railroads, holding a judicial position.
that In ninety-hye OF a hundred cases
the railroad officials who were deal
ing directly with the workers were
| indifferent TO the justice OF demands
made upon them.
And that, no doubt, is why Mr.. At
terbury and those for whom he speaks
oppose boards Of arbitrament and in.

LABOR BOARDS ABOLISHED
AT THE COMMAND OF THE
pennsylvania RAILROAD

AS an echo OF the publicly made
statement by Vice-President w. w,
Atterbury. of the Pennsylvania Rail
road, that the railroads objected TO
national boards OF adjustment, John
Barton Payne, director of railroads.
has issued an order abolishing the
three boards set up by the Railroad
Administration when the transporta
tion system was taken over under fed
eral control He promises TO find
some equitable method" OF adjusting
more than 1900 claims that are un.
determined. but gives no hint as TO
just what this method may be.
The labor members OF the adjust
ment boards have a long series OF
grievances against the Railroad Ad-
ministration, which under the direc-
tion OF Mr. Payne. have become an
annex OF the Association OF Railroad
Executives. Officials of this govern
ment department are under the I'm.
preston that they owe their first al
legiance to the railroads and they are
giving IL without stint.
Recently the administration an
nounced that IL would no longer pay
salaries of labor members OF the ad-
justment boards, Notwithstanding they
were government appointees. Mr..
Payne is, however, paying the salaries
OF the railroads representatives, hold
ing that they are a part OF railroad
administration. This rank discrimin-
alton was protested without avail by
the workers They saw in II an at
tempt on the part OF Mr.. Payne 10
compel them TO assume responsibility
for the disruption OF the boards. but
in this he was disappointed. for the
members who were cut away from the
government payroll continued to serve
at the cost OF the organizations they
represented.
Unable to maneuver labor repre-
sentatives into a position where they
would be unable or unwilling to serve.
thus terminating the boards. the
Director OF Railroads abruptly used
the only discretion possessed by him
and abolished machinery that had
been carefully set up to determine
/ disputes between employers and EN-
ployes and which had during period
OF three years justified the wisdom OF
those responsible for IL.
| In his public statements Mr.. After
/ bury has stated that the railroads

pmtes with workers shall be adjusted
directly by those affected and their
employers. He sought 10 give the i'm
