 Detroit. March 9.-Imputation of Samuel Gompers. president of thu American Federation Of Labor, that leaders of the Detroit federation are receiving or should receive compensa- ton from the Russian soviet govern ment because of their advocacy of recognition of that government comes with bad grace and is unworthy of q reply. the local organization informed Mir.

Victory for the Carriers

y ECAUSE the shop crafts ehteFeu no
- formal protest against the order OF me
Railroad Board, which changed or aDo!lshcu
MANI Of their working rules, anu, incident
ally Topped off S50,O00,000 from the pay
roll of the carriers there is no reason 10 be-
lieve that the postwar REIMBURSEMENT De-
tween the roads and their employees will be
completed without further sharp struggles.
In this instance the employees rcalized' ih;s,
their position was untcnable, and so yielded
gracefully to the inevitable. AS pointed out i'll
these columns months ago, the shop rules
which had grown up under government
supervision during and following the war
amounted TO AN abuse which added intoler-
ably TO the railroad burden, shouldercd i'll
turn by the public III higher rates and less
efficient service. Under those rules the
organization lines had been so unreasonable
and faulty drawn that the roads, in many
instances, were compelled to keep on their
pay rolls half dozen or more men 10 do
the work that one man should have done.
The degree TO which this abuse had de-
veloped can he yisualizcd in the fact that
by the decree of the board, $4,000, 900 will
be saved TO the roads and their efficiency in
creased instead OF lowered.
While the crafts accept the alteration in
their working rules which constitutes trc-
mendous victory for the roads they are
steelinE themselves TO resist further en-
croachmenS upon their envelopes. Dis
patches indicate that they will counter the
request for a 10 To - per cent cut in wages
when the roads are preparing To present,
with demand for a per cent increase.
Under the changed conditions which make
their wartime scales no longer necessary.
II may be doubted il they expect their de
1nand 10 be granted. but il is pat forward
In the hope thaA it will initiate against a
Geep cut in favor, OF the carriers. Whatever
inc result may be. II is apparent that the
Tead)ustment which the country's prosperity
demands is progressing rapidly and little
lear Is entertained that tn. Threatened clash
