2OPCT. PAY CUT
TOCINCH JOBS
Say They Realize Move Is
Necessary to Assure
Income.

CHTCAGoi Dec. Shine thousand
employees in the Pullman car shops have
notified the management they are win
ing to accept wage reductions ranging
as high as 20 per cent
The action was voluntary and officers
of the company had no inkIing as to the
mems intention until notified last week
Of the decision OF the committees, made
up OF representatives Of the workers,
skilled and unframed.
Summed briefly, the committee which
waited upon the management said:
DENY PLANNING
TO CUT WAGES.
Prices OF almost everything are com
ing down. Railroads expect to buy their
equipment and get their repairs cheaper.
Lower bids depend upon reduced costs.
II the company doesn't get the contracts
we are out Of work. II reduced operation
costs will aid the company IN obtaining
contracts, then work, without any men
being laid of or hours reduced, is as
sured."
In some quarters it was heard that
the company had contemplated reducing
wages. but officials deny this, although
IL is understood costs would have TO be
cut to enable the company to enter the
competitive field.
But the mems proposition was entirely
without prompting. and, should the com
pany decide to cut wages. in accordance
with the mems resolutions, the men
them selves will be called in to aid in the
readjustment.
Wages have increased nearly 100 per
cent IN the Pullman shops in the last
three years. In January, 1918. the aver
age wage was 1913; today it IS S677.
Some mechanics get as much as $3.50 an
hour.
