is 4S CENTS TOO MUCH TO PAY?
Four hundred thousand men en-
gagged as maintenance of way work
ers" on the railroads ask that their
pay be increased to AZ cents an hour.
The public will ask private owners
of railroads, who have had hundreds
of millions from the public pockets,
whether those railroad owners con-
slider 4S cents an hour TOO MUCH
pay for a man and his family.
If man works eight hours a day,
which should be the maximum in a
civilized country, his pay at AZ cents
an hour would be 1884 a day. Is
that TOO MUCH pay for an Ameri-
can workman? Is it ENOUGH to
feed and clothe a man, his wife and
children and pay rent?
How do the railroads expect man
to live on LESS than 1884 a day,
or on less than $3.50 day, in case
they can be made to work ten hours
The railroads say: We must have
dividends" They say when their
stocks have been so watered as to
make a NOMINAL dividend of per
cent an actual dividend of thirty, and
when they cry for dividends the pub
lie authorities permit them to raise
their rates. They are double what
they were, for THEY MUST HAVE
DIVIDENDS.
What about the human being
working on the railroad? Is he not
entitled to some dividend ON HIS
LIFE, on the years that he gives to
railroad service?
Isn't he entitled to little rest and
after he has worked eight
hours? Is he not entitled for his
days work to enough pay to live de-
Gently and let his family live de-
Gently?
Will it be necessary for four hun
dred thousand men to fight, strike
and tie up the railroads again, and
injure industry, in order to get the
miserable pay they ask, AZ CENTS
AN HOUR?
\
Will the president of the United
States have anything to say about
this, and on what side will he say it ?
How long do the railroad private
owners think the public will stand
their policy of extortion from the
public to the last dollar while cutting
the men that work for them also to
the last dollar?
If they want to hold their rail
roads and avoid public ownership on
the unpleasant basis of ACTUAL
OF THE ROADS, they will
do well to think a little about public
opinion.
They say quite plainly, eve own
this administration and can ride it as
hard as we please"
They know best what they own
