RAILWAY WAGES ARE
HIGH in MISSISSIPPI
Evidence on Subject Is Sub
mitted to Railway Labor
Board BY j. M. Egan, Gener-
al superintendent

The railroads of Mississippi are
now paying higher wages than
practically every other industry in
the state and it is largely because of
these higher wages that the present
freight and passenger rates are
necessary. These facts were disclosed
recently during the hearing before
the railroad labor board on the re-
quest of the railroads of the country
for lower wage scales
The Transportation act means az
the first of the factors to be consider
ed in the determination of just and
reasonable rates of pay for railway
employees, "the scales Of wages paid
for similar kinds of work in other in
dustries." A committee of Mississippi
railroad men accordingly made sur
vey of the present rates of pay of
industrial employees by certain
classes of railroad employees. The
results of this survey were summariz-
ed by j. M. Egan general superinten-
dent of the Illinois Central Railroad,
as follows:
"Our survey of wages and employ
ment conditions in Mississippi cover
ed lis industries located in So cities,
towns and rural communities in the
state and employing 8,971 workers.
Of this number 1907 men in other
Industries were found to be perform
ing work comparable to that perform
ed by railroad employees in the main
tenance of way departments. Ap-
proximately 90 per cent of these men,
or 6,955 men were receiving lower
wages, one and one-half per cent, or
35 men were receiving the same wages
and one-half of one per cent, ar 27
men were receiving higher wages
than are being paid by the railroads
to employees performing comparable
work
"In the case of those foremen in
other industries who were being paid
higher rate than obtained in rail
road service. it developed in practical
y every case that some special re-
quirements, Influenced the paying of
a higher rate. In addition, in the
case Of section foremen, it was found
that these men were employed by
lumber mills who had tracks to con-
struct or maintain through swampy
territory in the wood where the timber
was cut, and the conditions of the
work were therefore more severe
than exist in rairoad service"
All of this evidence has been laid
before the labor board as part of the
railroads case for lower rates of pay
for employees engaged in maintenance
Of way work The savings that may
accrue from further wage reductions
have already been promised to the
public in the form of lower trans
portation charges.

TEASDALE OIL STKIKE
NOT ILLOGICAL SAYS
CEOLOCIST EAST0N
Well Known Expert Visits
Well and Gives No Discour-
agement to the Hopes of
Those Who Are Convinced
of a Successful Test.

There were no further develop
ments at the oil test well at Teasdale
this week
o. r. B. Pace, superintendent in
charge, has been absent since last
Saturday, together with Charlie
Thompson, the driller. They have
been to Memphis and Chattanooga,
trying to get the proper casing pipe
and other necessary equipment for
bringing in the we'll 1t is stated
that some of the much-needed materi-
ais were finally shipped from Chatta-
nooga yesterday.
H. D. Easton, well-known geolo-
gist, of Shreveport, La, come to
to the oil-test well near Teasdale
about ten miles north of this city.
He stated that it was not at all illogi-
cal and that paying bed of oil may
have been sruck at that location and
at the depth reached-566 feet.
Mr.. Easton also stated that those
in charge of the operation are pursu-
ing absolutely the right course in
shutting down until the hole has been
securely cased-in fact that that is
the only thing to do.
OF course, Mr.. Easton was unable
to state any opinion as to whether oil
has really been struck Those pres
ent Wednesday of last week when the
drill suddenly descended several feet
say they positively saw oil. What
they saw soon became mixed with the
mud and water in the overflow pool,
and those in charge of the machinery
were so busy for some time attending
to shutting down and filling the hole
with muddy water to prevent pos
sible running of the well that no
sample was saved to be exhibited.
Mr. Easton, who is the same expert
who was here in connection with the
preliminaries of the recnt operation
near Paynes,> south of Charleston,
stated last night that he hoped the
casing pipe would not be delayed, as
every day of delay would initiate
against success in bringing in the
flow successfully even if good pool
has been struck. Charleston Sun.

PRODUCTION LARGER
In Ell DORADO FIELD
Estimated Oil Yield Value
$31, 900, 900 Since Start.

Ell DORADO, Ark, April 30.-
Eighteen compilations in the Ell Do
rado field up to Friday night show an
added initial production of 1860
barrels, with number of tests in
the new fields to the east and south
east, due for a test within the next
two weeks, which are expected to
put the production back to the high
figures of last fall when the daily
production of the field was around
10000 barrels.
Since the discovery of oil in Ell Do
rado on Jan. 10, 1921, up to the pres
ent week, this field has produced ap-
15,500,000 barrels of oil
or an averge production for the
entire time of over 400 barrels per
day. In money value at the present
price of oil this average represents
an output of liquid gold daily valued
at $64,800 and for the entire period
$31 100000.
FL Dorado is today on a firm basis,
whereas during the first year every
thing was more or less unsettled and
the city was growing so fast that it
could not keep up with statistics.
Today El Dorado has nine refiner-
les in operation, with combined out
put of around 10000 barrels of crude
oil per day. Three casing head gas
plants are now in operation in this
field and another under course of
construction, which extracts over TO-
900 gallons of gasoline daily from
the casing head and natural gas in
the field before it is used for drilling
rigs and domestic purposes.
The new churches under construc-
ton will cost $4,000 each and many
more being planned. The coming
summer will see more paving laid in
El Dorado than any city in the state.
Nine paving Improvement districts
have been formed for that purpose.
