Unions Which Have Rejected
Reduction Warned to Await
Action of All Affiliations.

CHICAGO, July "a monster referen-
DUN among 1.5OO, 600 railroad workers
is under way today on the question Of
accepting the u per cent wage reductions
ordered July l by TIE railroad labor
board. Eight OF the sixteen big rail
unions have already voted to reject the
reductions, but they have been warned
BY union leaders TO take no action pending
a vote among the remaining affiliations.
The referendum was a compromise
adopted at a meeting of all railway rnion
leaders here for the past week It rep
resents the att ude adopted by the big
four" brotherhO Is who cOunselled vote
Of all rail union men before any definite
action was taken. The shop crafts
workers controlling eight separate or
CARNATIONS already have rejected the
award. Their contention, amou 1ting to
a strike threat, was OYeTruled by the other
organizations
A resolution adopted unanimously by
the eight shop craft unions, was sent
broadcast to all railroad shop workers
today warning against any local ac-
lions. While the shop workers are bit
terIy opposed to accepting the wage re-
ductions, their leaders agreed with the
brotherhood presidents that the rail
workers must present a united front in
their decision on acceptance Of the
award.
The situation today amounted to vote
among the brOtherhOOds and four other
affiliated unions on confirmation Of the
shop crafts rejection Of the award.
Should a majority OF these eight unions
vote a rejection, nationwide rail strike
looms for Sept. l. The -ote, it was
announced, must be completed by that
date.
The rail workers have demanded q
promise from the railroads that no fur
Their entertainments VIII be made on
either wages OF working conditions
Should the railroads give bond to this
effect leaders predict the July 1 re
duction will be accepted. If the railroads
refuse, even the most optimistic Of the
leaders admit that strike is inevitable.
