RAIL BOARD CUTS
PAY OF 100000
MORE THAN s4s,ooo.ooo IN WAGES
ARE sLAsHED FROM EMPLOY
Es OF ALL ROADS
United states Railroad Labor Board
Hands Down Decision Which
Affects Men In Every Walk
OF Railway Life


Chlcago.-Atore than sfs.OO0.000 was
slashed from the wages or 100000 rail-
way employees in u decision by the
United States railroad labor board
Sunday.
The decreases, which averaged 8
cents an hour In the majority of cases,
followed cuts Of 100000, 900 made last
July by the board. Sundays decis-
ion. however, affected mostly main
tenance OF way workers, although de-
cisions are pending affecting other
ella ssifications.
IL the wage cuts made In the latest
decision are extended 10 other de-
cisions expected soon, II was pointed
out In railway circles that much OF the
5000, 100000 increase given by the
board in 1920 would be wiped out and
wages restored to level which rail-
way officials had told the board would
lead to new era of development and
open the way to the employment of
100000 men.
Tho decision was signed by the three
railway members OF the board and the
three members representing the public.
A dissenting opinion was filed by the
three members representing the labor
group. The majority opinion said that
the wage cuts. effective on July I,
were made in accordance with de.
crenses In the cost Of living. The NM
ority opinion contended that the wage
scale rovided IN the decision was In.
sufficient to sustain life on the basis
Of American standards.
All of the former diferentlals were
continued In the present decision. II
being stated that the wages of this
class of employee have not been STAN
dardlzed and uniform throughout the
country and will not be made so under
the decision. The wages OF track Ia.
borers ut present rates range from 2S
TO 40 cents an hour. Under the de-
cision they will range from % to 30
cents an hour.
The decision asserted that under the
new scale common labor on the roads
still will be receiving ratio higher
than that paid similar labor In most
other industries.
In statistical table based on the
figures on wages and the cost OF liv-
Ing by the department Of labor which
Is Incorporated In the decision, the
board declared that. while the cost OF
living In March. 1921 Cnst available
government figures,) was approximate
ly 1T.2 per cent over that of Decem.
Der, 1917. the hourly rate of pay for
maintenance OF way employees under
the present decision will be 60.4 per
cent above the hourly rates of De-
< cember, 1917, and the purchasing pow
or OF the wages of employees Affect
ed by the present decision will be AT
per cent over the purchasing power OF
their wages in 1917.
Labor men. while they were reluct
ant to be quoted until they had full
time to study the decision. pointed out
that, while 1t applied to the largest
class of railroad employees, the total
of the maintenance men being more
than 20 per cent of the whole. the
amount of wages paid to this group
which usually ranks as 'unskilled
labor. was smaller in the total thar
that paid any of the other groups
whose wages also are to be passed or
by the board.
