Chicago-The United States Rail-
road Labor board announced its inten-
ton of revising downward the wages
of more than 100000 unskilled rail
workers by next July 1. The amount
of the decrease was not announced,
but will be made public on June l.
@ At the same time the board an.
nounced that it would hold hearings
on June 6, regarding proposals by the
roads to decrease the wages Of other
classes of employees and also would
make its decisions in these cases ef-
fective on the same date. A similar
decision in the case of skilled work.
ers would mean cut in the pay Of
practically every railway worker in
the country on July and would af-
feet approximately 100000 men.
Decision Entirely Unexpected.
The announcement, which said that
prevailing conditions justify to some
extent, yet to be determined, read
justment downward Of wages" was en-.
tirely unexpected and came only few
hours after the close Of the hearings
which have been in progress since
early in April. Neither the roads nor
the representatives of the unions had
expected any announcement for sew.
eral weeks.
On July 20, 1920, the board gave, a
decision increasing the pay Of all
classes Of railway employees approx
mately 81 per cent or about 100000
900 q year. Several months ago sew.
eral roads announced that they could
no longer operate under this wage
award and announced reductions aver.
aging about 20 per cent in the pay Of
unskilled employees. The workers APP
pealed to the board which decided that
the roads could not make summary re-
auctions but must first hold confer
ences with their men and then, II no
agreement could be reached, submit the
case to the board for decision.
NInety-etsht Cases Appealed. :
Practically every large road in the
country: then held conferences with
its unskilled employees regarding re-
auctions and, when the employees 70
fused to accept cuts; carried the case
to the board. Ninety-eight cases IN
all were thus appealed and the board
finally decided TO hear them q . unit
instead Of separately. Sss.s

 For the first time in the history of the Kensington postoffice, that office will be open on Christmas day of this year. Postmaster W. w. Pagan stated this morning that although he is not obliged to have the office open on Christmas day, he received a let ter from Washington asking him whether or not it would be open. The letter stated, however, that it was not compulsory that he should stay open.
 MT. Pagan feels, however, that as long as the following day will also be observed as holiday that he will open the building from 11;30 o'clock in the morning until o'clock in the afternoon. By doing this the place will be open to receive and dispatch mail on the train going south at 12:5s o'clock and the one going north at 2;31 o'clock.
 The following Monday which will he observed as Christmas throughout the country, the postoftice will be open but on the usual holiday sched ule from 7:30 o'clock until 9:30 o'clock in the morning and from 4 until o'clock in the afternoon. Post master Barrett of Berlin will also be open on Christmas day, although his hours have not been decided upon,
 Both of the postoftices are still ask ing that the people in the town mail their packages S early as possible. There are still only IS more shopping days which means that there are about that number of days before Christmas to mail all packages and letters. In a final plea the people are asked to aid the postal authorities in this matter and mail as early next week as is possible.
