 The railroad ordered a 27 per cent reduction in the pay of trackmen ef- fective February i and later ignored the boards order to restore wages to the rates ordered in the board s wage decision of July. 1920.
 Decision Important

Had today's decision been favorable to the Erie it would have opened the way for scores of similar contetions by other railroads. it was said The de- cision was regarded in labor circles as a clean cut victory for the em- ployes, the board upholding labor's contention of violation of decision number two, the eswage award, by the Erie in every, instance. e.
