During the general discussion repre-

stated that if conditions were such as
to absolutely demand some reouc
ton there should be no horizontal
cut in wages, but that decreases
should be in keeping with the in
creases granted during government
operation. Such a system of reduc-
ton would mean that those classes OF
workers who received the greatest IN
creas ses during government operation
first should be considered in making
reductions and that these cuts In
wages would be proportionate with

PITTSBURGH. April 2.-Proposals
OF the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany that 1850 signalmen of the road
accept wage reductions of from IS
10 70 per cent were rejected by rep
resentatives Of the employees here
late today.
Ofncials of the Brotherhood of Rail-
way Signalmen received the COM
pany's plan for wage cuts today from
the general managers committee,
which is representing the road at the
series or wage conferences here. The
managers proposed cut of from 12%
10 ~ cents an hour. and in presenting
their case called attention to what
they termed the decline in living
costs. They contended that the wage
scale set by the United States Rail
road Labor Board in decision No. 2
was not Just and reasonable" at
this time.
The employees representatives held
an executive session after a confer
ence with the managers, at the ter
mination of which they notified the
company's officials that the proposed
wage reduction was not acceptable to
the men. The managers then asked
II the employees would consider any
other proposals for a cut and the
brotherhood officials answered in the
negative.
Tn conference closed after rer-re-
sentatives of both sides had voted to
submit the case to the Railroad La
Dor Board. Today's conference was
the second of series between repre-
s-ntatives of the road and its EN-.
ployes.

opinion is best demonstrated by the
fact that Mr.. Gillette Immediately

they sang as a group for the last

their Alma Mater, and the love they
have held for it for so many years
made us realize little of the ioy that

serve as reminder, not only of the
college which was then the only

one of the dearest, quaintest, "pep-
piest' groups we have ever had in
that chapel room. And not only have
they left us an impression of them
selves, but they have left a spirit
which will be an inspiration to us all.

Highway Commission
Lauds Marvel
Commends His Work for the
Public

Exceptional but in good form, gen.
erous, but we'll deserved was the Reso-
luton adopted by the Highway De-
partment upon the resignation of
Josiah Marvel from the Highway
Commission. To have received such
commendation must make him feel
that the world with all it's petty
preiudices and criticisms is worth
while, after all.
The resolution follows:
"WHEREAs, the Members OF the
Highway Department have learned
with great regret that Mr.. Josiah
Marvel, who has been Highway
Commissioner since the organization
of the Department, has felt compelled
to resign, and
"WHEREAs, the remaining Commits
sioners are much impressed with the
great loss the State and the Highway
Department have sustained by reason
of such resignation and feel that they
ought to give some expression OF their
appreciation of his services,
"Now, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED,
by the State Highway Commission,
that as tribute to the great services
rendered by Mr.. Josiah Marvel, as a
Member of the Highway Commission,
the following facts be recorded
81. He has given his valuable time
to the work ungrudgingly, without
stint, without pay, without even his
necessary expenses, and without
thought of sacrifice to himself.
"2. He brought to the Department
his unusual ability, his great fore
sight for the necessity of good roads
his unbounden confidence in the
States ability, and his great faith in
it's people to do the right thing in the
right way.
"3. He was foremost in building the
necessary organization to do this
work and has ever been alert ant
courageous in seeing that no veal
spot remained in it longer than il
could be removed.
81. He has remained with and beer
a part of this organization lone
enough to be assured that shortly VIZ
shall see a splendid highway extend
ing from the Northerly to the South
erly boundary of the State.
"5. Active as he has been for year:
in the politics of this State, he ha:
conducted himself in this office with
such unselfshness as to make th'
possibility of the Board becoming
partisan, impossible.
"BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That IL
the opinion of this Commission thi
record of public services has seldom
been excelled in this State, and II
order that it may become permanen
record and be better appreciated b.
all Delawareans, we direct that thl
Resolution be spread upon the min
utes of the Board and copy thereo
furnished to the Public Press"

FOR
IMPROVEMENT
Of GRAND BLVD.

The residents of Grand Boulevard
from 35th to 39th streets, have made
the first step to form much needed
association of interest for the protec-
ton and improvement of their prop
erty, and preliminary organization
meeting is scheduled to take place Fri
day evening, August 10, at the parlors
of the Appomatox Club, 1892 Grand
Blvd.
The importance of this move on the
part of the residents of Grand Blvd
cannot be discounted in view OF the
many bombings that have taken place
and in view of the fact that it is highly
essential for all of the Black people
who have secured property on this
beautiful thoroughfare to take every
step to make their property holdings
more valuable.
This union OF interests will beyond
question make for the improvement
and protection of all and will serve as
an example such as the Pyramid I'm

ing neighborhood.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. l4.-The
Philadelphia Autumn Fair Association,
embracing in its membership most of
the leading Colored men and women
of this city, perceivng the need of not
only acquainting the Caucasion with
the historical, educational, industrial
and Commercial progress OF the Negro
and his advance in the arts and SCI
ences. but the absolute necessity OF
showing to colored people everywhere
what each one is doing of notewor-

formed themselves into corporate
body.
In 1926, the Sesqu- Centennial, or
the largest worlds fair the world has
ever seen, is to be held in Philadelphia
Heretofore on such occasions the Ne
gro exhibition has been the last
thought OF by the promoters, and in
consequence their exhibits have been
incomplete and set off in some remote
corner In order TO remedy this con-
dition the Autumn Fair Association
was formed with the purpose of hold
ing an Autumn Fair annually, so as
to insure the most ereditable Negro
exhibition. in the worlds history at the
great Worlds Fair in 1926. To this
end the City Council has generously
appropriated $4,000 for the first Au-
tumn Fair to be held in Philadelphia
this fall-October 16-2. This sum
will be used largely in meeting cx-
penses OF installing exhibits.
The exhibition is to be Panorama OF
Progress, of Fifty Years of Race De-
velopmcnt, and will embrace spectacle
lar and educational pageants, paradcs,
amusements, band concerts, baby con
tests, community singing with l,OOO
voices, athletic contests, etc. This cx-
hibition is not limited to residents OF
Philadelphia OF Pennsylvania, but will
include the hanliwork and creditable
