Chicago.-Wage reductions estimat.
ed at not exceeding s40,O00,00O for $685.
900 additional railway employees, whose
wages the carriers seek to lower
through the railroad labor board, are
expected to issue from the board with
in few days, to be effective July l..
The new decision will make total of
approximately $150,000.000 to be cut
from the annual pay rolls of the roads.
The bulk of those whom the new cut
will hit are railway clerks, who num-
her approximately 100000. Their pay,
1t was said, would not be cut more
than cents, however, and certain
chief clerks and other supervisory cler.
ical forces may not feel the order
at all.
About 5000 train dispatchers, gen.
orally considered as subordinate Off
Gals while coming under the pending
decision, will not suffer any reduction,
according to authoritative information.
Supervisory officials in the shop crafts,
whose pay recently was slashed $780,
100000, likewise received no cuts.
Coal passers, oilers and water tend
ers, including in the general classifica-
ton of stationary engineers and fire
men, and freight handlers and other
common labor included in the station
employee group, are expected to receive
reduction of approximately cents

mon labor in the maintenance of way

unskilled laborers in these two classes.
Anticipating a reduction, however,
d. w. Helt, president of the signal
men, said the board would probably
hamstring u.s." adding that he could
find no justification for the cut to pre-
sent to his men, and that he expected
them to vote to strike as soon as a de-
cision was issued. E. H. Fitzgerald,
president of the clerks, likewise de-
clared further cut was unreasona-

begin a strike vote Immediately when
the decision is announced, in line with
with the agreement of the eleven or
