ton to act toward lawful objects through

ticed by management as between members

Counsel for Lines Elated.
CHICAGO, April 15.-BOth rail-
road executives and labor leaders to-
day declared the decision of the
United States Railroad Labor Board,
which abrOgated the national agree
ment, would not materially advance
the efforts to arrive at an agreement
satisfactory to all parties.
Labor representatives said that
many of the is basic principles laid
down i'm the boards decision to govern
the conferences on new working
agreements. especially the eight-hOur
day and the right of employees to or
ganize and select their own repre-
sentatives. included principles they
had been fighting for.
Railway executives said that the
decision recognized their contention
that many of the rules should not
have national application.

Seniority

1.-THE principle of seniority, long
applied to the railroad service, is sound
and should be adhered to. 1t should be
50 applied as not to cause undue impair
ment of the service.
'12-The board approves the principles
of the eight-hour day. but believes it
should be limited to work requiring prac-
tically continuous application during the
eight hours. For eight hours pay eight
hours work should be performed by all
railroad employees except engine and train
service employees, regulated by the Adam
son act. who are paid generally on a mile
age basis as well as an hourly basis.
''13-The health and safety of employees
should be reasonably protected.
The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1921-04-15

NEW YORK. April 15.-Samuel
Gompers, president of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor. declared today that the
railroad labor board evidently had been
influenced by big business in ordering the
abrogation of existing national working
agreements between the carriers and their
employees.
THE whole railway act, once pro
nounced a perfect piece of legislation, now
is denounced as an utter failure" he said
The board evidently was Influenced by
big business

CHICAGO. April 15.-National
agreements defining working conditions
for employees on all American railroads
formerly under the federal railroad adj
ministratiOns were yesterday ordered abro-
gated. effective July l, 1921, by the
United States railroad labor board.
The board called upon the officers and
system organizations of employees of each
railroad to select representatives Ito con
fer and to decide. as much of the rules
controversy rs possible. Such confer
enccs stall begin at the earliest possible
date" the decision said.
While the decision did not specifically
say so. members of the board said that all
! disputes as to rules and working condi-
| tions automatically were referred back to
! individual conferences between each indi-
vidual rood and its employees. This
method Of uroccdure had been sought by
/ the railroads, whereas the labor side had
| favored national conference between
representa- yes of all roads and all unions.
BrOthCrhCods Not Affected.
| The decision affected all railroad en-
| ployes except those in train service who
are under separate agreements between
the individual railroads and the four big
| brOtherhOodS.
| In correction with the conference ne
gotiations the board laid down set of
| 16 principles to serve as foundation for
any rules which may be agreed to in the
| conference.
