BIG SUMS FOR WORK NOT DONE
Railways Asking Labor Board to
Abrogate Wasteful Agreements
Made Under Federal Control.

THE entire country, Its consumers
It's farmers, its workmen, and even the
railway employees themselves, are d.
rectly interested with the railroads in
cutting down railway operating ex-
penses."
This is the keynote of the case pre-
sented by the railroads to the United
States Railroad Labor Board, now in
session in Chicago.
The railroads have subrnltted evil
dence to the board to show why the
National Agreements affecting railway
shop labor should be abrogated, be-
lieving that this is vitality important
step In the process CT reducing op-
Grating expenses.
This step is not only necessary to
insure adequate earning power TO the
railroads, but will make possible an
ultimate reduction in rates.
The agreements were made by the
Railroad Administration just before
the end of Federal control. The sum
total of the rules and working condl-
tons provided by the National Agree
ments have increased the operating
expenses of the railroads by hundreds
of millions, and have decreased the
efficiency and output of the employees
In other ways resulting in losses
which cannot be calculated In dollars
and cents
For several weeks the railroads
have been multiplying Instances of the
absurd and extravagant results of the
labor rules fastened upon them by the
National Agreements.
In one case cited before the board
machinist was paid 16ls hours wages
for work all performed within eight
hours. This case illustrated the effect
of the rule that for each "call" the
worker is to be paid five hours wages
even If he works only ten minutes.
The case of a car repairer on the
Virginian Railway, who was recently
paid over $1,000 for services which
were never rendered, and in addition
the same amount of overtime as was
made by his gang. was another exam
pie.
In connection with the rule that
none but mechanics or apprentices
shall do mechanics work, the follow
ing was cited to Indicate its unfair
ness:

Indignation At Cardinal Burme's
 Pastoral Letter

London-Great indignation was caused among Irish Catholics in Eng
 land by the pastoral letter written by Cardinal Bourne, archbishop of West minister, said a statement issued to- day by Art O'Brien, Secretary of the Irish Self-Determination League. His Eminence.' the statement de- clared. "ntay rest assured the only impression left upon the Irish Iaity
 as wei las the Irish clergy in his arch
 diocese by such letters is one of dis gust at his narrow and unchristian at titude.''
 MT. O'Brien referred to Cardinal Bourne's attitude toward Sir Roger Easement, who was executed for high | treason during the war, and charac-
 terized it as mot only uncatholic but anti-christian."
 Cardinal Bourne may hope" the statement continued, that his parti- san political lecture will help the ac- tivities of his government at the Vati- can which it was hoped recently would produce papaI condemnation of the Republican movement in Ireland.
 If his Eminence has any hopes in this direction it would be we'll for him to understand that not even the most de- voted catholic in Ireland or among the Irish throughout the world will accept political guidance or dictation from Rome."
