G. Lee. president of the brotherhood
of Railroad Trainmen in a statement
issued today.
President Lees statement declared
that the railways have assumed the
same outlaw position that was de-
nounced as illegal by every authority
in the United States including the fed
eral labor board when the switchmens'
strike of last year occurred.
THE railways" he concluded. are
not contending for reduced prices of
materials. taxes and other expenses
necessary to operation. but presume to
load every dollar OF unearned costs on
their employees
1T is neither fair nor wise to attempt
to take from employees anything that
rightfully belongs to them. Their pres
ent wages and service rules belong to
them. Their present wages and prin-
cipal and service rules belong to them
until they are taken from them by the
same careful investigation and legal
processes that sanctioned the award of
the labor board July 20.
The railways, like every other busi-
moss. feel the results of depression.
However they should assume their own
deficiencies with the same readiness
that they assume their profits.
The American public should under
stand the railroad situation. 1t is an
unwarranted proposition to tear down
and destroy American standards OF
work, wages and living for the benefit
OF the railways without regard TO the
welfare OF the nation and two million
employees who ask only for an equal
enforcement OF the law.
