 WANTED BY
 STATE POLICE

That Tony Terrizzi wanted for an assault on Edwin Mathewson, POI Norman street. and Gerlando Farru- g1a. wanted by the State police, is the same man. is the opinion of Sergeant Frank VirelH of the State police.

No change from the average twelve per cent. reduction granted 1OF carriers on June i was made by today's decision. The boards order today governed 21O roads.
 Today's decision will make a real ity of the estimated -four hundred million dollar annual saving expected when the boards 12Gc cut, effective July l, is applied to all employees, on all railroads known as Class One carriers. The decision, drawn up an addendum to the. wage reduction order of June 1st, adds practically every railroad in the Class One divi- sion to the original list of 104 roads authorized to make the 12%o reduc- ton.
 When the reduction order was is sued it was estimated that if applied to all employees on all Class One roads, it would lop approximately S4OO, 100000 from the country's rail- road labor bill
 The new decision will make this cut possible by ordering reduced wages for employees not included in the or tginal case and also by including em- pIoyes on roads which were not par ties to the first hearing.
