fact we Jointly submitted it to the
Board. 1t is still pending before the
Labor Board, who have not yet an
nounced decision in the matter. 1t
would not seem that it is reasonable
to strike upon a matter which has
not yet been decided by the authority
to whom we jointly submitted it.
In striking on that issue the law is
being violated as it requires that no
strike shall occur until after the La
Dor Beard decided the issues in
volved, and they have not yet decided
that issue, although it is before them
on joint submission. 1t seems to me,
in view of the above explanation, in
which l have tried to be as accurate
as | can possibly be, that if a strike
is declared it will be a useless one
and one clearly and directly in viola
ton of the agreement made by your
organization.
If the organization will not adhere
to its agreement, signed by its re-
sponsible representative, it would
seem useless to attempt to make an
agreement with it.
| desire to reiterate and strongly
emphasize the facts contained in my
letter to you of July 14th, reading as
follows:
information has reached this COM
pany from reliable sources that a
number of our employees have been
advised that if they do not go on
strike, if they are so ordered by the
clerks organization, they will not be
allowed to retain their positions when
the strike is over. This company as
sures every employee who remains
with the company that he or she will
be protected in the performance Of
their duties and that they also will
be protected in the retention Of their
positions when the strike is over, if
one occurs" In the event the clerks
do strike, it will be necessary, of
course, under the law and to carry
out its duties to the public, for the
company to continue to operate the
property, for which the necessary
complement of clerks will be required.

We are informed that strike will
be called by the organization with
which some of our clerks are affili-
ated. On July 18th | addressed to
you a communication in which [
quoted from an agreement which we
have with that organization two rul-
ings bearing directly on questions
which seem to be at issue.
/ have been allowed to see the Of
fetal Strike Ballot. In find that in
this strike ballot three questions are
presented on which you were re-
quested to vote as to whether or not
you would strike, as follows: First
you were asked to vote as to whether
Or not you would strike in protest
against the reduction in wages, effec-
tive July l, 1922, which reduction
was in accordance with the decision
of the United States Railroad Labor
Board, made after exhaustive consid-
Grafton of the question, upon which
numerous hearings were held, at
which you were strongly and ably
represented.
As I advised you in my letter of
July 18th, an agreement was entered
into on April 27, 1922, between this
company and the organization in
which the rules governing employ
ment and methods of determining the
rates of pay were agreed upon.
Among the rules agreed to was Rule
No. 81, reading as follows: Rates
Of pay for employees named herein
will be those mutually agreed upon
by the G. and 0. Executive Board of
the organization, party to this agree
ment, and representatives of the COM
pany, or as authorized by the United
States Railroad Labor Board.
Surely, no one can construe this
rule to mean anything but that if the
representatives of this organization
could not agree with the representa-
tives of the company as to rates of
pay that they in this agreement made
on April 81, 1922, agreed to accept
the rates of pay as authorized by the
United States Railroad Labor Board.
Second: You were asked to vote
as to whether or not you would strike
