DISCUSS REDUCTION
UNSK|LL.ED WAGES
Railroad Executives Conf

FEAR OF UNEMPLOYMENT
WILL BE WEAPON USED
"a, Burlington March q,
Others OF'llOw

CHICAGO, March 14.--.All mid
western railroads will hold confer
ences with their unskilled workers
within the next 80 days to discuss
wage reductions.
Railroad executives are confident
that the men will accept the cuts,
realizing they are warranted by pres
ent conditions. They will be afraid
to refuse to accept reductions because
of the large number of unemployed
workers, in the opinion of the rail-
road managers.
Each Road Deals With Own Men
Each road will deal with its own
men separately. In case the men do
not accept the reductions, appeal Will
be taken to the railroad labor board
for relief. The board has refused TIC
act in similar cases previously before
the railroads and the men have made
an ecort to get together. The board
has power to act, its members hold,
only when the men and employers
have attempted to reach settlement
and a dispute has arisen.

HIGH SCHOOL BOYS
RUN MILK TESTS

The Walla Walla farm bureau has
organized a unique COW testing as
sociation, according to F. w. Kehrli,
extension dairy specialist of the State
College. The farm bureau, cooperat-
ing with County Agent TaIley and
Mr.. Hasten, vocational agricultural
ist OF the Walla Walla high school.
has arranged to have four of the boys
in the high. school who are taking
dairying, run tests on their herds.
The boys will test six herds per
week, and run their reports at the
high school as a part Of their pro-
feet work. They will work in pairs
and test for the rs members of the
association. The regular COW testing
charge will be made and the boys will
receive a small per cent as wages as
we'll as secure the valuable training
as testers.

the Wabash next week and other con-
ferences will follow.
Union leaders have decided to fight
proposed reductions to the last
trench. If their determination is con-
tinued, the cases will have to go be-
fore the labor board. Within the
next three months the board will be
flooded with disputes to settle, in case
the men refuse to accept some wage
cuts.
If the railroads are successful in
reducing operating expenses, they
will cut freight and passenger rates,
their representatives promised today
Rate Reduction VIII Follow
There is no question but a sub
stantial reduction in operating ex-
penses would be followed in a short
time by reduction of rates." Sam
Dunn of the Railway Age said.
ut was high operating expenses
THAT made it necessary for the inter-
state commerce commission to fix
present freight and passenger rates
last August" he continued. about
one-third of operating costs are made
up Of fuel, materials and supplies
The other two-thirds consists of
wages.
Roads Have Not Earned Six Per Cent
1.-THE. railroads have not, in any
month since the new rates were fixed,
earned the 6 per cent return expected
by the interstate commerce commits
sion, Therefore, any reduction in
rates until there is a reduction in ex-
penses, especially labor costs, is out
of the question"
Railroad union leaders here de-
clared that the roads were deliber-
ately keeping their operating expenses
high, wasting huge sums of money,
in order to drive down the wage scale
and attempt to break" the organiza-
ton Of railroad men.
