Despatehers Will Not Be Included in
Reductions, Authoritative Report Says
CHICAGO, June -. (Associated
Press Wage reductions estimated at
not exceeding $40,000,000 for $4,000
additional railway employees whose
wages the carriers seek to lower through
the railroad labor board, are expected
to issue from the board within few
days, to be effective July !. The new
decision viii make a total of approx
mately $4,000 600 to be cut from the
annual pay rolls of the roads.
The bulk of those the new cut is ex-
pocted to hit are railway clerks, who
number approximately 100000. Their
pay, it was said today. would not be
cut more than 5 cents, however, and
certain chief clerks and other super
visory clerical forces may not feel the
order at all.
No Cut for Despatchers.
About 5000 train dispatches, generally
considered as subordinate officials, while
coming under the pending decision, will
not suffer any reduction, according to
authoritative information.
Coal passers, oilers and water tenders,
included in the general classification of
stationary engineers and tiremen, and
freight handlers and other common labor
| included in the station employees group,
are expected to receive a reduction of
approximately five cents an hour. There
are about 125,000 unskilled laborers in
these two classes.
The signal men and marine employees

are expected to come under the reduc-
ton, but no figures We're available to
indicate the amount of their cut.
Anticipating a reduction, ID. W. Helt,
president of the signal men, declared
that the board s'would probably ham
string us, adding that he expected his
men to vote to strike as soon as the de-
cision was issued T., H. Fitzgerald.
president of the clerks, likewise declared
that his organization would begin a
strike vote Immediately when the de
cision was announced.

an my community" said c. c
Bright, community chairman of the
Homedale farm bureau local. the
farmers are going in 100 per cent for
the Idaho Producers Union. The
more we study this proposition the
more we are convinced that the COM
mittee knew exactly what it was doing
when it made its report on head let
tuce marketing"
Fifty-seven acres were signed up
in the Homedale community in a
single day last week.
Interest in the Idaho Producers
Union is rapidly crystalizing in the
Media section also and reports indi-
cate that enough lettuce is already
signed up in the Melba territory to
insure sufficient business to warrant
the establishing of union packing
house in the southern part of Canyon
county, although the contracts COW
ering the sign up there have not yet
been turned in.
Our growers have been doing
lot of thinking lately" says Dave
Sproat, in discussing the situation in
the Melba territory. 1--WE have no
fault to find with any existing Idaho
agency who wish to handle our let
tuce, nevertheless we are convinced
that the plan outlined by the head
lettuce marketing committee Is the
best one in sight and our growers are
going to get in line. Present indica-
lions are that at least 50 per cent of
he head lettuce in this territory, and
considerably more, will be
signed up with the Idaho Producers
Union in the very near future"
Reports from the Nampa territory
Indicate to certainty that sufficient
acreage will also be signed up around
Nampa to insure the erection of
packing plant at Nampa. This plant
will serve the lettuce growers of Lone
Tree, Lone Star, Scism, Bennett,

THE prospective lettuce growers in

out for the marketing of lettuce by
the committee on head lettuce mark

presented in all of its details, they ex-

Staged.

HOMEDALE-An excellent two
days farmers institute was completed
at Homedale and Claytonia last We'd.
nesday. The sessions began Tuesday
morning and ended Wednesday eve.
ming, morning afternoon and evening
sessions having been held in both COM
munities during these two days. With
the exception of Prem Moore, state
poultry specialist, extension division
of the university, the program rendered
was entirely provided through home
talent.
r. H. Young, of Parma, an ex-
perienced lettuce grower, discussed
problems of head lettuce production
at both meetings on Tuesday. w. B..
Mitchell, of Parma, who has had con-
siderable experience in the production
of corn and corn silage talked on this
phase of the farm business at the
Tuesday sessions. On Wednesday,
the problems of the dairymen was
thoroughly discussed by Monroe
Ollie, of Caldwell, and Herman Weick,
of Notus, and E. F. McDermott, of
McDermott, one of the directors of
the Boise Cooperative creamery.
The farm bureau as farmers or
ganization was discussed by w. T.
Mccall, Canyon county agent.
]. H. Lowell discussed the matter
of irrigation water for potatoes and
head lettuce and succeeded in working
out solution of the problem that is
apparently going to BE satisfactory to
the farmers of the district.
On the whole, the meetings were
unusually we'll attended and those at
tending were very we'll pleased with
the program rendered.
"Our farmers in this district are
especially well pleased with the talks
on different subjects given by our own
Canyon and Gem district farmers"
said c. c. Bright, chairman of the
Homedale community farm bureau
local, "and in my opinion this is
step in the right direction. The farm
bureau should develop community
leadership and since we have men
thruout the Boise valley capable of
giving us information along almost
every line of agricultural activity, why
should we go outside this territory
for speakers on such an occasion as
a farmers instituted"

INDIANAPOLIS, IND. - Wall
street is determined to kill the ad-
justed compensation bill at any cost.
according to report sent by New
York executives of the American
Legion to national headquarters at
Indianapolis, Ind. The report states
that mandatory orders were issued by
at least one large stock exchange
house, ordering employees, both men
and women, to write their congress-
men urging against the passage of the
measure. Suggested forms were hand
ed out, and employees were instructed
to deliver their letters in unsealed
envelopes to their employers for in
spection.
Lined up with Wall street against
the bonus is the u. S. Chamber of
commerce, which, however. is meet
ing continued opposition from its con-
stituent chambers in widely separate
parts of the country. Chambers in
Omaha, Neb, in Battle Creek, Mich.
and in several cities in Oklahoma and
Ohio have now fatty declared in ia
vor of the bonus in the uuestionnaire
sent out by the national BODY. In
Toledo, following hearing by the
American Legion, business men of the
local commerce board refused to vote
on the matter, charging that the issue
had not been impartially presented by
the U. S. Chamber. They said that
it had ignored three of the five op-
tons.
