n R. MEN RECEIVE
STRIKE BALLOTS
Apparent Break in Harmony OF
Workers Minimized by
Union officials
SEPARATE FORMS USED
By the Associated Press

Chicago, Aug. 20.-Apparent break
In the harmony that has existed among
the Rig Four brothcrhoodS and the
Switchmen's Union of North America
in connection with the mailing out Of
strike ballots to thn membership was
today minimizcd by union officials here.
Strike ballots were mailed out TO
csc. 900 railroad workers Yesterday and
today. but the ballot Of the brotherhood
Of Railway Tranmcn. comprising about
1b0, 900 workers. went ON a separate
sheet.
The trainmcn withdrew because. their
officers explained. the ballot drafted
by the other four organizations did
not, in our opinion contain an i'm
partial and unbiased recital of all that
Is involved, nor did It convey the as
mrance that the wishes of the men, II
against working for reduced wages,
would determine the question. and that
they would be permitted TO leave the
service.
The joint ballot declared that if the
members voted to reject the wage rc :
duction il was understood they would
be permitted to withdraw from the
service Of their companies unless salts
factory settlement can be reached un-
der the laws Of the organization.
The wage reductions authorized by
the United States Railroad Labor
Board In July average about II per
cent. an estimated annual saving to the
railroads Of about Si00. 100000.
Some union leaders asserted today
that in their opinion il was not the
wage reduction. but working rules and
agreements. that would be the final bone
OF contention and particularly the time
and a half for overtime clause recently
restricted by the Railroad Labor Board.

TO hold valuables worth $1,000, 900,

later, but escaped unhurt. a few Soc
onds later policemen from four sta =
