IN QUEENS CASE
Continued from First Page.

not running the receivers OF the Federal
Court. Stick to your mutton. We are
not going TO have this service order de-
layed by any inquiry into an utterly ir-
relevant matter. The question is not
whether the Il. r. T. has spent money
unwisely in the past. The point is how
much has it to spend now in bettering
the public service,
Mr.. Shearn at the opening of the ses-
sion by his cross-examination OF William
S. Menden. general manager of the p. r.
T. under the receiver. brought out that n
materially improved service was possible
In non-rush hours even with present
equipment. There was much discussion
of the need for the purchase of 100 or
more new steel cars. The witness
stressed his contention that this would
necessitate completion of new shop and
yard facilities at Fifth avenue and
Thirty-eighth street, Brooklyn. on
ground controlled by B. r. IT. affiliated
interests.
Mr. Menden admitted that with new
cars considerable Improvement could
be made even in rush hour service. He
thought that new cars, if ordered imme-
diately, could be delivered in about nine
months and that If pressure enough to
speed up the work were applied 1t would
be possible to complete the shop and
yard facilities in the same time.
The witness declared that New York
ers insist on travelling speedily, whether
comfortably or not. George d. Yeomans
one of the q. r. T. associate counsel
said: THAT is true all over the city
People do, not take the local trains
, which you are trying to get them to do
because they are willing to stand up and
be crowded to get to place quickly
when they could sit down in comfort
and take little longer. New York
! people want to ride quickly, and they dc
not care much how they go. 1t is a dis
ease with them in some cases"

TO STOP ROAD CONSTRUCTION
Restraining Order Issued to Prevent
Work on Silver Lake Highway.

A temporary restraining order to
prevent the county from continuing
5the construction of the upper Silver
Lake hard surfaced road in the vicinity
of Menoken was issued late Friday by
Judge James A. Mcclure in the dis
trict court at the request of the Union

The railroad company claims in its
petition that a part of the road is
being constructed on railrQad prop
erty to its irreparabIe loss and damage.
The part in question is a detour de-
vised by the engineers to eliminate a.
dangerous railroad crossing The ap-
plication of the railroad company for
a temporary injunction was set for

for the construction of hard surfaced
roads along the right of way in Shaw>

that the hard surfaced roads do them
no good and that therefore they
should not be required to help pay
for them.

WORK OUT new GRAIN PLAN
Governor Allen to Meet With Gov
ernor HYDE in Kansas City.

cf0Or agUO III AduSi1S lily.
Gov. H. ]. Allen announced today
that he would meet with Gov. Arthur
Hyde, of Missouri, in Kansas City next
Monday in an effort to work out an
agreement between the grain inspec-
ton departments of Kansas and Mis-
souri,, whereby the double inspection
and ws&ghing fees that are being
cha rsed on grain can be eliminated
Under the present arrangement when
wheat is shipped from Kansas into
Kansas City, Mo, and then reshipped
back to Kansas mills each state de-
partment charges one dollar a car for
weighing and one dollar a car for in
spection 1t is believed an agreement
can be worked out whereby the states
will take each others weights and
inspections.
Governor Allen also announced to-
day that plans are being worked out
whereby in the future local grain men
will not be called upon to guarantee
inspection costs at the smaller stations
in Kansas. It is proposed that the
general funds of the inspection de-
partment be used to make up the diff
ferences where the local work does
not bring in enough in inspection fees
to pay the expense.
In the event an agreement Is
worked out between Kansas and Mis-
souri, to eliminate duplicate inspec-
lions, Governor Allen said this might
mean a slight reduction in the force
employed by the inspector at Kansas
City, Kan. but that it would not nea n
any material decrease of the number
of men employed.

LABOR SPEAKERS IN TRADE
Urge Rail Workers to Strike if Reduc-
ton in Wages Is Made.

The United States labor board. Abe
Santa Fe railroad and Governor Allen
were bitterly attacked by the three
labor representatives who addressed
the mass meeting of railroad workers
at the city auditorium Friday night.
The speakers were F. H. Knight of
Kansas City, Kan, assistant general
president of the Brotherhood of Rail-
way Carmen of America; William At
kinson, vice president boiler makers,
and J. A. Golf, general chairman Of
the latter organization The meeting
was arranged by the local federated
committee of shop crafts
The speakers predicted that within
a few days the labor board will rem
der a decision authorizing the Santa
Fe and other roads to make cut in
wages and declared it was up to the
employees to fight. They charged thai
the labor board was a political orga n
ization that is inclined to favor the
railroads, limiting that the board is
playing into the hands of railroad
managers by stating that the organ
ization is not governed by majority
rule.
The cut in wages referred to Is the
one which the Santa Fe and a num-
Der of other roads gave notice of last
last big increase in wages given the
employees under federal control and
would restore the same scale of wages
in effect March 1, 1920. The reduc-
IlOu WOulu amount 10
10 per cent and would affect all en-
ployes except the trainmen. The cut
would also date back to December 2 3,
1921, if the order is allowed.
81 tell you that as sure as the sun
rises and sets the labor board will,
within a few weeks, issue an order for
reduction in wages" declared Goff
1T is only a question of how much
as a cut has already been decided
upon. I don't believe the Santa Fe
employees will stand for this reduction.
1t is time they were cutting the sal
aries of the fellows sitting in the plush
chairs, instead.
1.-The time has come" said Atkinson,
when I believe we must tell the labor
board we will get along without its
decisions and if you expect to maintain
what you are getting from the Santa
Fe now you will have to stay with
your organization and fight to the
finish"
Atkinson said that if a nationwide
strike comes the organization will not
be in shape financially to meet it but
out. 1--WE are confronted with a very
serious situation within the next ten
days." he said. 81 plead with you to
save your money because if a fight
comes we will need it,
The same speaker also urged every
one to go to the polls and vote, de-
claring that there never was a tinae
when organized labor and the farmer
need the vote more He demanded to
know what Governor Allen was doing
for labor with his industrial court and
said that his kind were not entitled
TO labor votes.
