Rail Labor Board
Forbids Union
Men to Strike
U. S. Wage Commission An.
nounces That Any Workers
Who Walk Out Will Be
Considered as Outlaws.
BY Tho Associated Press,

Chicago, Oct. 29.-The United
States railroad labor board today, in
effect, forbade railroad union labor
from striking without the boards
permission and declared that all
strikers who violated the order would
be classed as outlaws who had vol
unarily removed themselves from the
protection Of the transportation act
The labor board, after detailing the
decision Of both sides to abide by
the law, says, these facts render it
unnecessary for the board to make
any further orders on or about this
matter and move it to congratulate
the parties directly interested and
the public, most vitality and pro-
foundly interested, on this return
to industrial peace, triumph Of the
reign of law and the escape from this
national disaster. ....
But at this time the board deems
it expedient and proper to make its
rulings and position on some of the
points involved so clear that no
ground for any misunderstanding can
hereafter exist.
First, when any changes of
wages, contracts or rules previously
in effect are contemplated or pro-
posed by either party, conference
must be had as directed by the trans
portation act and by rules or deci-
sions Of procedure promulgated by
the board, and where agreements are
not reached the dispute must be
brought before this board, and no
action taken or change made until
authorized by the board.
Second, the ordering or authoriz-
ing Of strike against decision num-
Der 147 (the July | wage cut) of this
board is violation of that decision.
The board desires to point out such
overt acts by either party tending to
and threatening an interruption of
the transportation lines, the peaceful
and uninterrupted operations OF
which are so absolutely necessary to
the peace, prosperity and safety OF
the entire people, are in themselves,
even when they do not culminate in
a stoppage of traffic, a cause and
source Of great injury and damage.
The board further points out for
the consideration of employees inter-
ested, that when such action does
result in strike the organization so
acting has forfeited it's rights and
the rights of its members in and to
the provisions and benefits OF all COR
tracts heretofore existing, and the
employees so striking have voluntar-
lily removed themselves from. the
classes entitled to appeal to this
board for relief and protection"

Burn corn instead OF coalI
Well, il all depends,
Under certain conditions corn
may be cheaper than coal. at the
prevailing prices OF both.
Corn on the cob, for instance, will
cost the farmer in central Nebraska
only about half as much as Penn

lowancc is made for the heat value
OF both.
Compared with Cherokee nut
coal, corn on the cob is about Is per
cent cheaper.
Franklin county, Illinois. soft coal
"a popular fuel-wll cost about 40
per cent more than corn on the cob.
based on an equal number OF heat
units.
Data Gathered.
In order to check out the facts in
the case, a problem OF much inter-
est to many farmers today, The Bee
gathered data on the comparative
heating value OF corn and coal. The
standard in measuring heat values is
the British Thermal Unit. A pound
OF corn on the cob will average
5000 p. 7. u. A pound of Frank
lin county soft coal will average
$1,000 b. r. U. These are the fig
ures given by Chief Engineer Lar
mon OF the metropolitan utilities dis
trict.
Corn at 20 cents a bushel, figuring
20 pounds OF cob corn per bushel.
is worth $50 ton. At this price.
cob corn costs 1857 cents per 10000
B. T. T., slightly over one-third Of
a cent.
Franklin county coal, with 10000
B. I. U. per pound, priced at $3.50
per ton-which is fair price in CEN
trail Nebraska-costs 50 cents per
10000 3. 7. u, slightly over one
half cent
Shelled Corn More Expensive.
Stated differently, it would
take $3.50 worth of cob corn at
20 cents bushel to get as much
heat as could be gotten from
ton Of Franklin county coal at
$3.50
Shelled corn figures Sc pounds a
bushel. Applying the same method
of calculation outlined above, shelled
corn at 20 cents per bushel is equiv
alent to cost of 80 cents per 10000
B. T. U., shelled corn having Z
higher heating value than corn On
the cob, but costing more per
pound. -.
The following table shows the
comparative costs. The first column
indicates the number of B. T. u. per
pound of fuel; the second column
the price per ton, figuring corn at
20 cents a bushel as stated. The
third column gives the price in frac-
tons of cent per 10000 heat units.
Comparative Cost.

r. per pound per ton 10000

Cherokee nut .....12,500 11.00 .4s0
Penn. anthracite $4,000 $500. .s2l
In addition to the apparent cheap
ness of corn, there is to be consid-
cred the saving of haul by the
farmer-of corn to town and of coal
to the farm.
Corn was used for fuel back in
the eighties and nineties when the
price. dropped to 10 cents a bushel.
Coal was cheaper then, too.
Corn has no disadvantages, old
timers say, for kitchen range use,
though requiring frequent cleaning
of fues in hard coal burners. Sheiled
corn burns cleaner than corn on the
cob and requires less frequent re-
plenishing.
