600 MILLION IS
AWARDED Rail men
AS WAGE INCREASES
Labor Boards Awards Average 81 Per
Cent. and Are Retroactive to First
Of Last May.

Chicago, July 20. - Wage increases
totalling $600,0O0,000 were granted to
the 100000 railroad employees of the
United States in the decision of the
Federal Railroad Labor board on the
recent demands of the big Four"
brotherhoods and associated crafts.
The increases average q per cent. The
men had asked increases totaling ST.
000,OOO,0O0.
The award is retroactive to May of
this year.
While the award was not entirely
satisfactory to the brotherhoods, it
was understood that it was sufficiently
large to be accepted tentatively by
their chiefs and submitted to refer
endum of the men. Their decision to
await the action by the individual un-
ions ended the possibility of an imme-
diate strike.
Il. c. Whittier took copy of the rul-
ing of the Labor Board for the railroad
corporations. He said that the roads
would accept and advise the award"
B. M. Jewell was present to repre-
sent the union brotherhoods. He made
no comment upon the award, but indi-
Gated that it would be submitted to a
| referendum.
Chairman r. NJ. Barton presented
the boards decision The award was
made by groups, each classification
receiving a set increase per hour, or
in the case of engine and train EN-
ployees, per mile.
"The board assumes as the basis OF
this decision" the award says, "the
continuance in full force and effect OF
the rules, working conditions and
agreements in force under the author
ity of the United States Railroad ad-
minstration. The intent of this deci-
sion is that the named increase, except
as otherwise stated, shall be added tc
the rate of compensation established
by the United States Railroad admin
istration."

LOCAL GRADE WILL Be
PUT IN GOOD CONDITION
Chairman Hunslcker Of Wharyes and
Ferry Committee Announces Pro-
posed improvements.

Councilman Frank Hunsicker, chair
man of the Wharves and Ferries Com
mittee, of City Council, announced this
afternoon that his committee proposes
to make extensive improvements in the
local grade in the immediate future.
For some time his committee has been
authorized by Council at large to make
the much needed improvements but
Mr.. Hunsicker has been awaiting the
proper time to make these improve
ments.
He announces this afternoon very
substantial contribution toward this
improvement from Captain Stalder,
owner of the Aberdeen-M -Maysville ferry
boat and this together with the city
funds he had been authorized to use
will put the grade in good condition.
Owners of automobiles who have
been humping over the rough grade
will be glad to know that the grade
will be put in first class shape at once
and travellers will also be glad to
know that the Maysville grade has
been repaired as many automobile
tourists from the north are now cross
ing the Ohio here because of the OPP
GRAFTON of the local ferry at night.
