RAILROADS
VIOLATING
DECISIONS,
UNION SAYS
81 Specific instances Cited.
Decline to Take Blame for
Holding Up Mails.
BY International News Service.

CHICAGO, July 13.-The
grievances of the striking
railway shopmen against the
railroads and the United
States Railroad Labor Board
were laid before President
Harding today in a telegram
sent to the Nations Chief
Executive by the executive
council of the shopcrafts
union.
Charges of partiality are
clearly implied against the
labor board and violations of
law are specifically charged
against the carriers. The
willingness of the striking
unions to bring about a just
settlement is asserted,
Stick to Their Issues.
interruptions Of commerce and
the mails, the telegram continues
will continue and increase until
an adjustment is reached. The
telegram is the unions response
to the proclamation issued by
President Harding that the mails
must not be interfered with.
The telegram charges that the
Railway Labor Board has fixed
wage scales far beneath the
standard of living wage and
contends that the employees are
clearly within their rights in
striking. 1t points out that Fed
eral Judge Page has held that de-
cisions Of the labor boards on
wages and rules are merely ad-
visory.
Got Poor Advice.
The text of the telegram follows:
"It appears from your proclama-
ton Of July IL, that incomplete
information has been furnished you
concerning the present dispute be:
tween the railroad operators and
the employees.
"Ninety.two railroads have vio-
lated the Transportation act or de-
cisions of the Railroad Labor
Board In lN cases. These involve
not only contracting out work and
shops, but also wage decisions. In:
terpretations Of rules, and rights OF
employees to select their own rep
resentatfves,
when the Pennsylvania Rail-
road refused to comply with the
boards ruling, Federal Judge Page 4,
held that the boards decisions ON \
wages are only advisory. Rail
roads have refused ever since the
passage Of the Transportation act
to established national boards OF
adjustment as described by the
labor board as an essential part OF
the machinery to decide disputes
between the carriers and employees.
The railroads have made all nego-
tiations merely formal, thus throw
upon the board an impossible bur
den Of arbitration.
"The board has abolished over
time pay for Sundays and holidays,
enjoyed for thirty years even on
unorganized roads. The board has
established q basic wage OF $500
per year, although the Department
Of Labor statistics fixed bare sub
sistence cost OF living at over 81, 400
and a minimum comfort budget At
over $500.
when the basic wage Is unjust,
n follows that all wages graded Tor
skill and responsibility are likewise
unjust. .
"Organized employees support
your declaration Of May %, 1891,
that the lowest wages must be
enough for comfort and insure that
the struggle for existence shall not
crowd ont things truly worth living
for and 20 provide education, rec
rcafion, and saving. Employees

President Harding's procla-
nation forbidding interference
with transportation" is the most
important made by any Presi-
dent OF the United States since
PRESIDENT Wilson'S declaration
of war.
The President calls the Labor
Board "an agency Of govern
ment," and attributes force of
law to its decisions. This
means. unequivocally, COM

with the Labor Board as arbi-
