Railroad Men Prepare
For Fight to Finish
Against Wage Cuts

CHICAGO, May 29.-Railroad
labor was preparing today for a
slight to the finish" against wage
cuts announced by the United
States Railway Labor Board:
"This decision of the railway
labor board is indefensible and
undoubtedly will be rejected by
railway employees when submitted
TO them for a vote in accord
ance with the laws of their or
ganizations," was the declaration
of B. M. Jewell, president of the
Railway Employees Department Of
the American Federation OF
Labor.
Reduces 4OO,O 900 Men.
The decision of the board, an.
nounced yesterday. cuts wages OF
400, 900 members of the Brother
hood Of MaintenanCe-of-Way work
ers from to cents per hour.
1t is estimated that il will mean
an annual saving to the railroads
OF approximately 5000. 900.
The decision, although affecting
only the rnaintenanCe-of.way men
who are for the most part un-
skilled laborers, was believed TO
fCreshadow wage reductions Tor
practically every class Of railway
employees in future rulings of the
board Even, the wages OF the
members of the Big Four" brother
hoods, it was believed will be re.
duced in future rulings.
Labor Members Dissent.
For the first time since the
board was established. all of the
members of one group of the boards
membership dissented from deci-
sion. While the three public group
members and the three railway
group members conCurred in The
ruling, A. o. Wharton. Albert Phil

labor members, filed a dissenting

The labor members of the board
dissented on the ground that the

"They are insufficient" the dis

pretty model sought to "end all"
thereby not giving the tablets sur

placed, gives encouragement to
friends and neighbors that the
beautiful model will surely recover.
