they were made ito divert public at
tention from the matters in contro
versy'
Examples designed to show ineaua-
lities in present rules were recited in
detail by Mr.. Whittier. He declared
the present national agreements
should not, in the interests of hon
est, efficient and economic manage
ment, be continued longer, and said
universal application of their provi-
sions was impracticab3e because the
only parties fully qualified to consid-
er such regulations are the individual
themselves.
Mr.. Whittier urged return to the
piece work plan. He declared that
was recognized as the most efficient
method of operation and attempted
to show what had been accomplished
under the piece work system as COM
pared with the same work now done
by the hour.
Specified hours and restricted start
ing times were deplored in numerous
examples brought out to show, Mr..
Whittier said, uneconomical practices.
Overtime and extra shifts were cited
on several roads to show that the
work done could be performed by
regular shifts in regular hours, il the
roads were not restricted by the
present rules.
The session which opened today
marks the continuation of the hear
ing begun last summer which was
recessed with the wage award on
July>ees 1920. The present hearing is
to determine whether the national
agreements, made under federal
management will be continued as re-
euested by the railroad employees.

plants throughout the United States
which are working on a piece. work
basis and further proof that many men
desire piece work, is that. when this
method of pay was abolished, a great
many employees left the railroad shops
and entered the service of car building
and other manufacturing plants where
the piece work system of pay was in
effect.
Among the elements set forth in the
transportation act for determining
rates of pay is the training and skill
required hold that the piece work
system of pay affords a specific basis
for compromising employees under this
requirement, which at the same time is
just and reasonable"
Mr.. Whittier then pointed out the
necessity for relief from the restrictive
rules regarding employment which are
interfering with output and causing de-
lay to the movement of traffic and the
fallacy of perpetuating national agree
ments with organizations which do not
represent all the employees of a par
ticular class on all railroads.
In conclusion he said:
I'VE believe that the board should not
approach this subject from the angle
of a schedule with any organization;
or that the board can properly say
what organizations shall or shall not
represent the employees. The subject
should be dealt with from the stand
point of what are the proper reguIa-
tons for the character of service under
consideration, and that the question of
whether they shall be applied on the
individual properties, in the form of
scheduled with certain organizations,
depends upon the policy of the individ-
ual property and the desire of the ma
jority of the respective classes of en-
ployees on that property.
I'VE firmly believe that the board will
be convinced that the widely varying
conditions on the different railroads
can be properly considered and disposed
of only by direct negotiations on the in
dividual properties, and will accordging-
ly deny the request of the employees
for continuation or perpetuation Of the
socalled National Agreements" togeth-
