Mel0 Railroad Working Rules
(From the New York Herald)

Under the new rules, a day la
borer will not resume the occupation
of day labor. He has peen there un-
der the Government operation rules.
He will stay there. But he will re-
sumo the rating and pay that belong
to the job Of day labor. A highly
skilled locomotive engineer will no
longer be compelled TO sit around
doing nothing until a shopman ar
rives to tighten a nut which any
body could do. He can now do It
himself or have his fireman do it. 1t
will no longer be required that a
first-class carpenter, at a skilled car
penter's high pay. have the exclu-
sive right to knock to pieces an old
box car for the scrap heap; an ordi-
nary workman can do It. II will no
longer be necessary TO put half a
dozen men-a mechanic, his helper,
an electrician. his helper, and some
other journeyman and his helper
to open a headlight. look at the IN
side Of It and then shut it. A single
helper may do It.
These and similar restorations of
rational working rules are a good
thing for the road, which can get
better work for less money. They
are a good thing for the skilled
workman, who is entitled TO a much
higher rating than the unskilled
workman. They are a good thing
for the public, which can get better
transportation at a lower cost than
it was possible to get when railroad
workers were paid not for what they
did. but the way they were CLASH
fed to give them big money for what
] they didn't do
Evening journal., 1921-12-03

The full text OF the United States
Railroad Labor Board opinion revis-
ing some of the working rules is not
yet at hand. but from the details
made public the changes appear to
be excellent from every point OF
view. They free carriers from
shackies and burdens which have
not only wasted money but ham
pered operation. They protect the
workers in all the legitimate i'm
provements in conditions they have
gained, and have gained deserverly,
through the years and generations.
Nobody in his economic senses,
not to mention sympathetic and hu-
name considerations. wants to see
American labor get anything less
than a thoroughly American wage
or return TO best working conditions.
Nobody has a keener interest than
the intelligent and competent en-
ployer in seeing his employees make
continuous progress to higher and
better things along sound economic
lines. And nobody has been more
scornful OF some of the unfair and
grotesque results OF tinkering with
the working rules under Govern
ment operation than the railroad
wage earners themselves. II was the
railway worker. not the railroad
manager, who applied the term NC
Adoo mechanic" to day laborers who
became skilled workers at skilled
workers pay. not through training
and proficiency. but by an executive
order reclassifying and remaining
them as artisans.
