STRIKE BALLOTS ARE GOTTEN READY
 BY RAILROAD MEN
More Than 100000 to Vote This Week on Proposed Wage
 Cuts.

Cleveland, Aug. 2o.-Strike ballots for submission to 100000 members of the
 Big Tour" railroad brotherhoods and the SWitchmen's Union of North Amer ica were being prepared at joint con- terence this week of members of the executive committees, chief executives and assistant grand officers of the five organizations
 in its present shape the ballot tells the union members of the unsatis factory ne gotlatlons held in the past few months between brotherhood chiefs and railroad managers at conferences held in the West, Southeast and East as to whether the railroads intended to ask for further decreased wages, following the 12 1-2 per cent reduction handed down by the railroad labor board at Chicago, June i, and now in effect, whether the roads would seek the elimination of time and one-half for overtime and asks if the members are satisfied to continue work under these conditions Executives of the southwestern roads did not meet with the chiefs.
 Chief executives of the five organiza- tions have been in conference here for several days.
 When the ballot Is completed, prob ably within day or so, 1t will be sent to active members ship of the five organi- cations and referendum vote taken. It was estimated that 1t will take a full month or more to complete the vote.
