RELATES STORY
OF ABOUT FACE
BY RAIL HEADS
CuyIer Denies Official Influ-
ence to Reverse Stand on
Labor Pacts.

CHICAGO, March 19.-The inside story
of how the railroad executives of the
country arrived at the decision to de-
mand abrogation of the national agree
ments was revealed before the United
States railroad labor board here today
by Thomas Dewitt Cuyler, chairman Of
the Association of Railway Executives.
Frank P. Walsh, attorney representing
railroad unions in the fight for the ma
tionaI agreements, questioned Cuyler
about the apparent change in sentiment
Of ten of the eleven members of the
labor commission of the Executives As
ISOLATION. Ten members originally IA
vored the agreements and only one, W.
W. Atterbury, opposed them.
Cuyler, a director of the Pennsylvania
Railroad and connected" with large
banking institutions in New York and
Philadelphia, said he stated, without
going out Of his way" his position in OPP
posing the national agreements to GER
tain members of the labor committee.
DENIES WELDING
UNDUE POWER.
Il did not attempt to influence mem
bers Of the committee Officially Guy
Ter said.
Cuyler said he opposed all national
rules and working agreements.
Asked regarding the appointment Of
Atterbury as chairman Of the labor board
after Carl Gray of the Union Pacific had
been forced out when Atterbury's stand
against the national agreements was
adopted. Cuyler said:
"Atterbury represented the majority
opinion of the roads which are members
of the National Association Of Railway
Executives"
Walsh asked Cuyler who determined
the labor policies of the Pennsylvania
railroad.
THE railroad policy committee"
NO PRACTICAL MEN
ON COMMITTEE.
Are any of the committee practical
railroad menl"
"No."
"How about other roads?"
"All about the same" Cuyler answered
Cuyler said the members of the Penn
sylvania committee were lawyers, bank
ers and retired capitalists.
Walsh attempted to develop through
questions that the labor policies Of the
big railroads were not determined by
railroad men, but by bankers, capitalists
and lawyers.
Cuyler said II the New York Central
had voted in favor Of the committee re-
port favoring continuation Of the national
agreements it would have been adopted
The witness denied he had any power
over the railroads as chairman Of the
executives association.
Cuyler admitted he wired certain rail-
roads in February, however, asking them
to fight the national agreements and said
they had agreed.
"On your terms?" Walsh asked.
"Yes,'' the witness answered.
Efforts by Walsh to bring to light the
publicity campaign conducted by the
railroads against the national agreements
failed when members Of the board ruled
that he would have to confne his ques-
tons to the reasonableness or unreason-
ableness of the national agreements.
