gestion of troop trains from Mukden
A repair train left Yangtsun Sun

because Of congestion due. to the ar
rival of Anfuite reinforcements.
The Peking-Tien Tsin line is single

BOARD WILL PASS
ON WAGE AWARD

Chicago, July 19.-The first grand
council for more than a year, of ex-
ecutives, general chairmen and gen.
eral committeeman of the sixteen
recognized railroad brotherhoods
opened in Chicago today to pass upon
the wage award of the railway labor
board.
The boards decision, it has been
announced, will be made public to-
morrow.
Approximately 1000 union officials
are expected to be present when the
council takes final action on the
award, and more than that number
already have reached Chicago. Pre-
hmlnary meetings were held yester-
day by early arrivals, but no state
ments were given out as to what
work had been done.
According to union rules all uues-
tions of wage increase must be sub
mltted to a referendum vote of the
entire membership of the unions, but
1T was pointed out today that the call
Tor the grand council stated the pur-
pose of the gathering to be "to con-
slider and pass finally upon the
award made by the board" Under
these conditions it was not known
whether the boards award would be
submitted to a referendum or wheth-
er final action would be taken by the
union chiefs in session here. Lead
ers today declined to comment upon
the matter. In connection with the
decision of probable referendum it
was pointed out that vote by the
entire membership Of the brother
hoods would require a month or more
and that many union leaders were op-

ceptance or rejection of the award.
Samuel e. Heberling, president of
the Switchmen's Union of North
America, declared last night that if
it was decided that the award was un-
satisfactory concerted action would
be taken by the sixteen brother
hoods"
The wage increases asked by the
railroad workers of whom there are
nearly 100000 would total more
than 100000. The demands
range from 25.3 per cent for shop
men, to 66.4 per cent for maintenance
of way employees.
