sociated ress).-That the big five"
railroad transportation organization
chiefs are expecting a legal battle
when they appear before the United
States railroad labor board Wednesday
in Chicago was indicated Tuesday when
! they sought to retain Walker d. Hines.

handle legal phases which might de-
| yelop. Mr.. Hines informed the brother
hood executives that he was not in a
position" to represent them.

nouncement on the situation or to dis
cuss any generally specific points.
Unless the railroad labor board has
changed its attitude concerning the
necessity Of general chairmen Of the
five labor organizations appearing at

to be decided will be on the action of
Warren ). Stone. president of the
brotherhood Of Locomotive Engineers,
in notifying his general chairmen they
need not answer the labor boards

labor board and President Stone, re-
garding the necessity Of general chair
men OF the brotherhoods being re-
quested to attend the Chicago hear
ings, Mr.. Stone said:
my chairmen are scattered all over
the country from Maine to California
and it would be impossible for me to
get them to Chicago in time for the
opening Of the hearings.
When asked how long his grand
officers expect to remain in Chicago.
Mr.. Stone replied that he could not
answer, adding that no arrangements
had been made for the return trip.

indicate whether their general chair
men would be present, excepting W.

new rules and working conditions.
The two wage controversies were
disposed of. The board has been just
" urged by the carriers to complete its
consideration Of the rules and hand
down its decision.

az z matter of procedure it would be

just.tc discontinue the consideration
OF rules and working conditions and en-
ter into prolonged hearing "a a an
plication to reduce wages at this time.
1T is not within the province of the
board to shut the door in the face OF
either carriers or employees but It in
within the discretion of the board to
fix the order in which it will take up
and consider the numerous matters
submitted to it.
1T will thus become apparent that
the employees who are protesting
against further wage cut, are cross
ing bridges long before they can pos
sibly get to them and that carriers
cannot hasten wage reduction by
applying for it at this time.
'The board is not affected BY the
threats of a strike. 1t adopted several
weeks ago a policy Of making every
thing secondary to consideration Of
rules and working conditions, but even
with the greatest diligence. it will re-
quire considerable time to complete the
decision of rules.
I'm view Of the above considerations.
it Is the purpose Of the board that the
submission Of carriers and employees
on rules and working conditions shall
be eompletel% disposed of as to any
particular class Of employees before
a hearing is had on any question of
wages"
