Conductors Tells Board

CHICAGO, May 5.--Wage reductions
will not solve the nations Transports

Big Four" brotherhoods declared be-
fore the United States Railroad, Labor
Board tonight in their fight against
proposed cuts in the payroll Of train
service men on eleven railroads.
Labor was the most available thing
to pounce upon when retrenchment
w8s necessary, declared L. e. Sheppard
head of the conductors. But while the
employees were sympathetic, he said
they ''were not Abrahams and have no
Isaac to sacrifice.
Warren e. Stone, president Of the
Engineers, in pleading the case of his
brotherhood, declared that his greatest
motive was to give the public good
service and the employees living
wage. He also said that cutting wages
was not the solution of the railroad
problem.
"The truth is" Mr.. Stone said, "that
If this board wiped out all wage in
creases and the employees donated
their services and pal dtheir own ex-
penses, some roads would still be on
the rocks. 1t is impossible for them to
keep afioat under the present high
financial acknowledgement and their
system OF watered sotck."
Mr.. Sheppard opened the "Big Four
presentation with an arraignment of
the transportation act, in which he as
serted that it had mot bee ma panacea.
but crown of thorns, which the rail-
roads are now pressing to the brow of
labor" If labor must suffer, he said,
the employees demand that the public
be given the benefit.
"There is something more funda-
mental in this question than q reduc-
tion of wages" Mr.. Stone said in his
Statement. "The question before you,
gentlemen, involves the welfare of our
country. 1t will decide whether few
bondholders shall get dividends or
whether millions of workingmen shall
have an merican standard Of living"

World Cotton
Conference
David r. ecker of South Caroline
Makes Address

Liverpool. June 13.-(By the Asso-
ciated Press The point chiefly en-
phasized at the opening of the world
cotton conference here today was
that the present glut in raw cotton is
a temporary condition and that the re-
turn to normal will demand greatly
increased production. In this con
nection. Richard I. Manning. former
governor Of South Carolina. speaking
for the American delegation. said there
was no limit to Americas capacity TO
supply raw material provided 1t was
done on a just and profitable basis. Hc
added that il was their dutE to solve
the new economic problems IN the
same spirit of determination and CO.
operation which England and the
United States have shown during the
war.
David r. Coker. Of South Carolina
said there was still lanentable ignor-
ance Of scientific methods OF produc-
ton among American farmers and
education was badly needed. The first
essential however. was to abolish Ia
ber conditions prevailing in the South
which left the laborerS in dire power
ty and bring back the price Of cot
ton to a profit level.
