Board Rules That There Will Be No
Wage Cut for Year - Judge
Hooper Goes to Union Lead
ers' Meeting.

Chicago, Oct. 29.-The threatened
nationwide railway strike has been
averted.
The strike was definitely averted by
a vote Of $50 against to 81 for. The
81 votes against a settlement were cast
by the firemen, who held out to the end
for a walkout.
I'VE thought that we were hitting
the railroads, but found our attack
was in reality directed against the gov
eminent" said L. e. Sheppard, chief
of the conductors. 1--WE could not defy
the authority of the United States.
When we saw the government was op-
posed to the strike we said it would be
futile to carry out the strike orders"
The announcement came from the
United States rail labor board Offices,
Following a series of conferences be-
tween union delegates and members
Of the federal board.
The conferences were supplemental
to a session of all the brotherhood
heads earlier in the day, at which
Judge Ben w. Hooper formally pre-
sented the boards ruling against hear
ings for any new wage reduction ap-
peals within one year.
The union chiefs reconvened In
meetings Of their individual unions
early in the afternoon to consider the
new angle presented by Judge Hoop
er. Then a second joint session was
convened.
Unions Ask Rulings.
While the second joint session was
under way two delegations went to
the Offices of the rail board for sup
Elemental conferences. They are be-
lieved to have sought detailed rulings
on certain questions which have
been holding up strike settlement.
William J. Burke, Pennsylvania
congressman, member of the execu-
tive committee of the conductors and
general chairman of the B. & o. con-
ductors, together with Peter Kilduff
of the engineers executive commit
tee, consulted a delegation which
sought w. L. Memimem, labor men,
Der of the rail borad, for detailed in
formation.
III. P. Daugherty, L. G. Griffing and
f. A. Burgess were members Of an
other delegation which conferred with
Judge Hooper, presumably to obtain
from him further details regarding his
morning statement.
After these two delegations had re-
turned to the union meeting reports
were general that the formal order
resembling the strike would be handed
out In short time.
Judge Hooper's unofficial" confer
ence with the union men was made to
present to them an element which the
majority of them asserted was new to
| them.
No Wage Cut for Year.
This element was found in the an.
nouncement. issued Tuesday by the
rail board, in which it was asserted
no further wage reduction petitions
from the railways would be given con
sideration by the federal board al
long as any of the other questions Of
hours, labor conditions and similar
subjects remained for consideration
In other words, according to the labor
beard, it will be physical impossible
ity to grant hearing to any further
! wage reduction pleas for at least {
/ wear
