ROADS DECISION
A., B. and A. Acted Illegally
in Reducing Wages of
Its Employees.
BY the Associu ted Press.

BY the Assoca ted Press.
CHICAGO. April a1.-The Railroad
Labor Board today ruled that the re-
ceiver of the Atlanta. birmingham
and Atlantic railroad in reducing
wages of it's employees in compliance
with a decision by Federal Judge S.
II. Sibley had acted in violation of
the spirit and letter of the transporta-
tion act
The board ruled that it was power
less to take action in the case at
present, and ordered that the en-
ployes, most o: whom now are on
he owners. and, if an agreement is
not reached, bring the case back to
tho Labor board.
The duty to obey decision of this
hoard is not any less an obligation
on the receivers of a road than on the
owners of a road. the decision said.
Was First Clash.
The Atlanta, Birmingham and At
lantiC case brought the first clash be-
tween the labor board and a federal
court and was the first legal tangle
which the board was called on to un-
ravel.
The case first came before the board
| last January, when the road posted
| notices of wage reductions. Officers
| of the road told the board the carrier
| was losing 100000 monthly and had
| to cut wages in order to exist. The
board ordered the reduction notices
! withdrawn and told the employers &c
| confer with their workers, in accord
| ance with the transportation act
| When the case again came up it was
brought out that the road did not con.
| test the business of the wages set by
| the board. but pleaded only inability
to pay. The board ruled that tinan-
cial condition of the road we not a
matter for it to act upon, deciding
that such matters :.IriIi. 20
the Interstate Commerce Commission
Receiver Takes Over.
Subsequently the road went into thu
hands of a receiver and Judge Sible,
authorized the wage reductions. A
strike then was called on the line.
The decision today said that the
board believed that a misunderstand-
ing and the eXigencieS of the case had
caused the federal court to authorize
the reductions. instead of sending the
case back to the labor board.
Lay Pleas Before Board.
Setting a whirlwind pace, more than
thirty railroads laid their pleas fol-
wage reductions before the Railroad
Labor Board yesterday in the finaI
days presentation of the carriers evil
dence The board then adjourned for
one week, until April 2S, to allow the
employees time in which to prepare
their reply.

Always Carry a spare Tire.

Why spoil the pleasure of a
motor trip by setting off without
a spare? With a view to econ
omy many drivers are carrying
no spares to-day, but it is a form
of economy that does not pay.
A spare tire of good quality is
one of the absolute essentials
for care-it is the tire you de-
pend on to bring you home.
The spare ought to be covered
to protect it from the effects of
sunlight and heat. says the
United States Tire Company.
Sunlight has bad effect on rub {
Der even in the coolest weather, j
for it produces a cracking" orl
checking" on the surface
which rapidly extends to the in
terror, causing deteriorations
Heat has an even more destruct-
i've effect. Spares sometimes
are carried uncovered near the
exhaust. This is poor practice
if the heat strikes an uncovered
tire directly.

cents from every legion member,

fund. Florida was the first State

such division. In point of ter

State and in time she will have
the largest population despite the

that the people of Texas are

Automobile Tires ATE getting Bel:
fer

One of the noteworthy fea.
lures regarding the manufacture
of automobile tires in this coun.
try is the fact that during the
last five years tires have i'm
proved so greatly in quality that
the average number of tires used
on an automobile during a year
has dropped from five to consid-
erably under four.
This drop has come, too, in
the face of an increase in Winter
driving so large as to be a vital
element in the calculation. Many
cars now operate twelve months
in the year but in spite of this
increased period of service, the
average annual consumption of
tires per car has steadily fallen.
With the return to normal
times and with money less plen-
tiful, car owners are certain to
watch their expense bills more
closely. The exercise of only a
moderate degree of care by the
car owners will lift the average
mileage secured from tires to a
point many thousands of miles
above any hitherto reached.
So far as known, the best rec
ord ever made on a set of four
tires was that of a Boston mer
chant who got 80. 152 miles on
set of United States Royal
Cords. He attributed this phe-
nomenal record to the care given
TO the tires by his chauffeur.
