WILL MAKE CUT
U. S. RAILROAD LABOR BOARD
EXTENDS ORDERS FOR WAGE
DECREASE.
NEW WAGE REDUCTION
EMPLOYEES ON VIRTUALLY EVERY
RAILROAD AFFECTED BY
NEW ORDER.
Western Newspaper Union News Service

Chicago, June 2S.-EmplOyes on yir
tually every railroad in the country
will feel the II per cent wage reduc-
ton ordered by the United States Rail,
road Labor Board to take effect July
!, following Il supplemental decision
extending the order to nearly 100 addi-
tional roads.
The wage slash authorized by the
board on June | originally contemplate
ed 10f railroads, although not all EN-
ployes were affected IN all roads.
The latest addition to that decision
included 2l0 roads, many of which
were parties TO the original decision,
but which returned To ask reductions
for classes of their employees not cov-
cred in the first order.
The reductions authorized were iden-
teal with those of the original order.
The only change is the addition OF
rates for marine workers la certain
harbors and of "A section covering res
taurant and dining car employees,
whose wages were ordered reduced by
90 per cent of all increases received
since Feb. %, 1920.
With exception of a few subsidiary
lines, whose parent n filed petit
tons for reductions, every railroad In
the country affected by decision No. 2,
the Labor Boards SG00,000,O00 wage
award of July, 1920, has o been au-
thOrized 10 reduce wages an average of
l. per cent.
Most of them have received such
permission for all classes of employees.
In addition, nearly two score other
roads which voluntarily applied the in
creased scale fixed by the board in
1920, also have received authorization
To make Il similar cut.
Basing its figures on the normal
number of employees on all roads af-
fected by decision No. =, the Labor
Board recently estimated that its u
per cent reduction would lop approx
mately Si00,000,000 from the nations
railroad wage bill, if applied to all en-
ployes. Comparatively few roads now
have a full quota of employees, but res
toration of normal conditions and APP
plication Of the boards cut to all en-
ployes Of the larger railroads probably
will make the 500, 100000 reduction a
reality.

asked for food, drink and car fare. A
drink Of real Scotch whisky, break
fast and so cents were forthcoming,
whereupOn the then tramp remarked:

Doctor Makes Tedious Trip Over
Snow-choked Road in Order to

Yreka, Cal.-The automobile means
much to the doctor these days, but it
means nothing to the Yreka surgeon
on some of his calls.
DIR. Robert H. Heaney of this city
has just returned from a seventy
mile trip over snow-cOvered country
to Forks of Salmon, where he was
called by the illness of Miss Georgia
Smith.
The snow was eight to ten feet
deep on part of the trip. The physi-
clan arrived in time to perform sue
cessful operation for appendicitis, and
reported the young woman on the road
to recovery. Because of the. barriers
in the path to the place, the doctor
tried to rent the airplane Of Clyde
Bangborn, but it was in the shop fot
repairs, and the trip had to be mads

Parent Teachers Associations of Kentucky United In
Favorng the Two Amendments

The Parent-Teachers Associations Of
the state will do everything in their
power to carry the two amendments to
the Constitution in November by a
barge majority. Mrs. George c. We'll
don, president, sent the statement CIV
en- below to your staff correspondent: !:
81 am so glad to have the opportu-
nifty of saying a few words in favor of
the two Constitutional amendments to
be voted on at the November election.
1.-The amendment which proposes to
take the Office of State Superintendent
of Public Instruction out of politics is
of vast Importance, as our school sys-
TEN can never attain the perfection we
hope for it until we, by one united vote
in November, shove politics as far
away from school administration as
possible. There is no more important
position in the whole state than that of

brown eyes on the rows of books in the
cases and to fondle the pile of manu-
scripts on my desk. Her hunger is for
good books, for there is talent in that
small being palpitating for develop
ment.
Il trod daily the same hot road to
the same district school, conducted IN
der the same school system. 1 sat on
the same straight-backed bench, ciph-
cred at the same old rough blackboard
and got my stockings full of the same
cookie burrs at play time.
Il have been asked for my honest
opinion as to the school system of Ken
tucky, and l write it down plainly that
do not believe that the little laSSie, who
lifts s-my latch, has one iota Of a better
chance than 1 had.
"Our standard is low. Our system is
inadequate. We are not now, any more
than we were thirty-five years ago, Civ
ing the Kentucky child its due, and
just as have been hampered and de-
layed in my life's work because of this
lack, so will the Iassie be Eampered
So will be all the thousands of lads and
lassies who are depending upon the
public school for their chance
"Take the Office of State Superin-
tendent of Public instruction out of
politics, thus we will arrive at the ru-
diments of a new school system which
by reason of its newness and vigor will
make rapid growth into great system.
"The royal road to this system lies in
the adoption of the two proposed
amendments to the State Constitution,
which will be submitted to the people
at the November, 1921, election.
'My plea to every woman in the
state is:
Make the voting for these two
amendments a matter of consecrated
duty to childhood. Vote for the same
measure you pray for"

present school laws he must be changed
every four years-no matter how eff
cient he is nor how>ably he has admin

bad for our schools, for of course each
incumbent has ideas of his own which

when Democrats and Republicans
alike agree that the proposed amend
ment is the only solution of our school
problem here in Kentucky what need
to make it a political issue, anyway?
There is no party in education as re-
ceived by our children.
1.-The amendment to re-apportion
funds is also vastly important, as it
seems to be the solution Of the rural
school problem, by giving the rural
child in the most isolated district an
even chance with the child in the more
prosperous community.
"The women of Kentucky-on whom
rests largely the great responsibility OF
educating the children-mUSt avail
themselves of the privilege of suffrage
NCNin
tiously. Women of Parent-Teacher
Associations must keenly feel the re
sponsibility to such an extent that they
will not only cast their vote for these
amendments, but will explain them to
others and persuade them to the same
course. For the sake of our children
and our friends children let us strive
10 make it an overwhelming majority
in November"
