 Several months ago several roads an nounced that they could not longer operate under this wage award, and an nounced reductions, averaging about Zo per cent for unskilled employees The workers appealed to the board. which decided that the roads could not make summary reductions. but must first hold conferences with their men ana then. if no agreement could be reached submit the case to the board for de cision
 Practically every large road in the country then held conferences with us unskilled employees regarding redue lions and when the employees refused to accept the cuts. carried the case to the board

Representatives of the employees re fused to comment on the boards an nouncement until they had time to study it arefully.-Gazette.
