RAIL LABOR BOARD
TO HEAR PROTESTS
Norfolk and Western Controversy Set
for Monday.

CHICAGO, Jan. 2.-The first case in
which the powers Of the Railway La
Dor Board under the new federal
transportation act have been invoked
to settle a strike threat was set for
hearing before that body for Monday,
January 3. 1t had to do with demands
made upon the Nrofolk & Western rail-
way by its trainmen and conductors
which have been hanging fire since
last February.
The strike vote VISA ordered Dec. 2
by officials of the Order of Railway
Railroad Trainmen and, according to
reliable information, resulted over
whelmingly for a strike.
On December fl the Railway Labor
Board notified the company and the
unions that 1t had assumed jurisdic-
ton in the controversy and that no
further action must be taken until in
structions We're received from the
board. A few days later w. C. Turner,
vice president OF the Order of Railway
Conductors, and Val Fitzpatrick, vice
president of the Brotherhood of Rail-
road Trainmen, were summoned to APP
pear here.
The demands of the men modified an
agreement dated Oct. 18, 1917, and
embodied requests for increased pay
on mine service runs and changes in
certain working conditions which the
railway management asserted meant in
creased wages generally Added to
this was conflict of opinion as to
whether the controversy should be
submitted to the federal board.
President Maher of the company as
serted that the transportation act
provided that all such controversies
should be submitted to the board, but
Mr.. Fitzpatrick took issue with these
views, because he said they imply that
all controversies" regardless of rights
wrongs or fundamentals, must be sub
mitted to the labor board for adiudi-
cation.
IF such conclusions were accepted. y
continued Mr.. Fitzpatrick's statement
to President Maher, then the railway
would be in a position to force sub
mission to the labor board of every
question that arises. regardless of its
merits. Thus things which are funda-
mental and the inherent rights of men
would be dependent upon the views
Of nine men, which result (from the
employees standpoint) would be doubt
