A WAGE AGREEMENT
WITH MEN WHO STUCK
Continued from page 1.
Compnny's Statement.

Companys Official statement fol-
lows:
Announcement was made today that
the wage agreements affecting moro
than 100000 men on the Pennsylvania
System have been negotiated In a
series of conferences between repre-
sentatives OF the employees and repre-
sentativee of the management. The
last OF these negotiations affecting the
employees in tho shop crafts has just
been completed. The new rates of pay
in each case are effective as of July
10th instead Of July /.
The clas of employees concerned
in these agreements are shop craft
employees. maintenance OF way en-
,ployes. signal department employees.
clerks and miscellaneous forces. The
matter OF adjusting rates of pay OF
these classes has been under nego-
tiation for several months II was
handled entirely with committee Of
employees representing the various
classes.
THE new schedules of wages diff
fer in some respects from the rates
established by the Labor Board for
other railroads but the difference is
in favor of the Pennsylvania employees.
For the most part. the Pennsylvania
System rates are graded in accordance
with skill and experience required and
the prevailing rates are generally
higher than those established for
other railroads.
THE completion OF these wage ad-
justmeris marks the third important
achievement In industrial relations
under the Pennsylvania System plan
of employee representation which was
established last year in order to give
the employees an opportunity 10 have
a voice in the Pennsylvania manage
ment- Tho first wae the negotiation
of mutually satisfactory rules cover
ing working condition to take the
place of the so-called national agree
ments and the second was the estaS-
lishment of permanent methods Of
settling controversial questions. All
three of these matters have been dc
termined in joint conferences be-
tween the management and employees
elected by secret ballot to represent the
various crafts and classes"

OPERATORS AGREE
TO HARDlNC'S PLAN
AND REOPEN MINES


Tho operators who remained In
Washington canvasscd the situation
carefully to determine what were
prospects for resuming coal produc-
ton. II was clear that managers OF
coal mines IN Pennsylvania expected
that attempts to open closed down
properties would be successful.
In southern Ohio also executives of
largo mining concerns said they held
strong hopes OF successfully opening
at leaft n percentage OF that mining
area.
Tho Southern Ohio Coal Operators
Association. which withheld Inst night
any definite response TO the Presidents
offer OF arbitration, today filed n
memorial ut the White House, declar-
ing themselves willing to continue
the sacrifice and comply with your
request and use every possible effort
TO open their mines for the resumption
of production as speedily as conditions
will permit. with the hope that the tri-
bunnl entrusted with the investigation
OF tho industry and arbitrament OF it's
disputes. will finally award them that
degree OF justice to which they believe
they are entitled"
The memorial particularly voiced
approval of the Presidents assertion
that tho freedom of action on the
part OF worlsmon and on the part of
employers does not measure I'm i'm
portance with that of public welfare
and national security"
The Interpretation to be placed upon
President Harding's injunction for
opening tho mines was still a matter
OF discussion In official circles. Oper-
ators In part were inclined to ask the
Federal government for some assur-
ance OF protection for their property.
