Labor Board Decides that Esch- Cum mins Bill Docs Not Apply to Any Interurban Line Either.

Interurban Line Either.
 Chicago, Dec. 1S.-The U. s. Rail- road Labor Board handed down a decision today interpreting the Esch Cummins transportation act to mean that the board does not have juris- diction over any interurban or cleo trie lines. Appeals from employees on va rious electric lines asking the board to hear their grievances were denied.
 The decision affects every electric fnterurban Tn the country and many city transportation systems owned by interurban companies.
 Arguments in the case were heard several months ago. Members of the board stated at the time their belief that regardless of which side won, the matter would be appealed to the U. s. Supreme court for interpretation of, the Transportation act.
