RAIL LABOR
LOSESOVERTIME
Ten-Hour-Day Schedule at
Regular Wage Replaces
Agreement
EFFECTIVE SOON
FOR $4,000 WORKERS

CHICAGO. Dec. IA. Slashing ex-
ira pay provisions for the first two
hours OF overtime after the regular
eight-hour days work from rules
governing maintenance Of way en-
ployes, the United States Railroad
Labor Board has set up a schedule
of ten hours a day at the regular
hourly wage for common laborers
in new rules announced last night to
replace the national agreement made
under government control.
The principle of "eight consecu-
tive hours shall constitute a days
work" is retained. however and
time and one-half pay is granted az
ter ten hours work The new pro-
visions make possible a ten-hour day
without penalizing the railroads,
which were compelled under the
federal agreement to pay time and
one-half after eight hours. Practi-
cally all section gangs work more
than eight hours a day due to time
necessary for travelling TO and from
the point Of operations and because

The rules become effective Deem
Der 16. exactly one year after the
agreement was made between the
United States Railroad Administra-
ton and the United Brotherhood Of
Maintenance OF Ways Employees and
Railroad shop Laborers. They apply
on all railroads where agreement has
not been already reached on rules to
supplant the national agreement.
Many rules had been agreed upon
by a majority of roads, and in such
cases the Federal counterparts were
remanded for further consideration
10 roads not reaching an agreement.
These included rules on seniority,
promotion and special service where
local conditions were held to gov
ern. Wage schedules were elimin-
ated as a part OF the rules agree
ment.
Removal OF the two hours overtime
penalty was declared by labor board
attaches to cut many millions OF
dollars from the carriers annual
payrolls. Normally the new rules
would affect SIS. 900. but az present
the force is considerably less, due TO
sub-normal traffic conditions and
also to the seasonal nature Of the
work
The old national agreement recog-
nized the ten-hour day in extra or
boating gangs of workmen whose
employment is temporary and sea-
sonal. Regular gangs. however were

\ EaltCrinw Congress

T. OUR months OF the present session of
Congress have passed. that body hav-
Ing convened under the urgent call Of
President Harding on April II. In summon
ing the House and Senate to sit in extraordi-
nary session. the executive expressed the I'M
patience which the nation At large felt for
swift and decisive legislation which would
promote reconstruction and give the Amer
lean people the benefits to which peace fair
~ entitled them.
Mr.. Harding laid down three concrete
propositions in his earliest message to Con
grcss which needed the attention OF that
body. The first was the immediate passage
OF resolution declaring the return of peace
between America and the central powers.
The next was tariff revision. and the third,
and most vital. was taxation reform. After
weeks OF fumbling and pickering Il peace
resolution was passed and is now in effect.
Yet that measure has changed nothing
There is no settlement with Germany and
for month the Department of Justice has
been in doubt whether the President should
issue proclamation affecting domestic war
time legislation

interest OF agriculture, but no agricultural
