HOW THREE BIG
ROADS FLOUT
PUBLIC SAFETY

By International Labor News Service.
Washington, ID. c., July 26.--The
Erie, Pennsylvania and New York
Central railroads are controlled by
Wall Street influences whose desire
is to cut wages and increase dividends
regardless of all other considerations.
The cheap labor policy for which
these roads are holding out would
mean decreased safety for the travel
ing public, and none of these roads
can afford to relax efficiency of re-
pair work. The Interstate COM
merce Commission reported that dur
ing 1921 more than half of the loco
motives on these roads were found de-
fective. The detailed statistics are:
Erie--1 ,032 inspected; $40 defec-
tive; Sc per cent defective.
Pennsylvania ,745 inspected; e.
749 defective; So per cent defective.
New York Central, East-S93 in-
spected; AIS defective; 54 per cent
defective.
New York Central, West-464 in
spected; 2S7 defective; 62 per cent
defective.
All locomotives reported as defee-
tive constitute violations by the rail-
roads of the safety regulations pro-
vided by law. These regulations have
been fought by the railroads and de-
manded by the workmen.
Such enforcement as is now OBJ
tanned is the result of government in
spection. The fifty locomotives in
spectors now on the job are not suffi-
cient to cover the field.
More inspectors would reduce the
accidents from which the public now
suffers. But the railroads oppose
more inspectors. The publie-be-
damned spirit still remains.
Compliance of railroads with the
law would eliminate defective locomo-
tives entirel". The number of defec-
tive locomotives operating at any one
time on these three roads alone is
therefore more than four thousand.

'"The criticism should be directed at
the membership at large, as he is only

"The editorial further states that
Jewell has even dared to challenge
the honor Of the railroad labor board,
charging it with nothing less than
a tool Of special interests. We wish
to concur in President JewelPs
challenge to the board, and feel that
no greater proof is needed than the
many unjust decisions that have been
issued against the railroad workers"

WHAT SENIORITY MEANS TO STRIKING sHoPMEN

ers and to intimidate their fellow
workers, breaking down the spirit of
free labor, ore OF the most valuable
qualities of Americanism.
The purpose of destroying senior
ity rights is a vicious attack on the
right of men to refuse to work under
non acceptable conditions. Abraham
Lincoln, as President of the United
States, declared: Il am glad that a
system of labor prevails under which
laborers can strike when they want
to-" The strike is the last resort OF
any industrious man, depending upon
his labor for the support OF himself
and his dependents. There has not
been strike upon the American Kali
ways of the proportion of the present
one in a generation. Yet the railway
workers for 20 years prior to the war
suffered increasing hardships from
low wages and rising costs of living.
Recently they have been compelled I'M
great numbers to suspend work to
prevent the imposition of inadequate
wages and unfair working conditions
and to stop the aggressions OF organ
lied money in its drive TO degrade the
workers standard OF living, and to de-
StfOy his. organizations VI sciA PiU-
lection. If the Railway Executives
insist upon using this suspension OF
work, which they forced upon the. en-
ployes. as an excuse for depriving
them of the fruits of lifelong, con-
tinuous, faithful service, they will
only give further evidence of the alb.
solute necessity for the organized
employees to fight to the last ditch the
conspiracy against their Fundamental
rights and the general welfare OF all
men who live by labor.
The responsibility for increasing
losses to the railroads, to the COM
munities they serve and to the wage
earners upon the railroads and else
where, through continuance Of the
present suspension of work, rests now
plainly upon the Association OF Rail
way Executives, and particularly up
ON that small, but dominating group,
representing the New York banking
interests.
The public is now the victim OF that
tyranny against which the employees
revolted. The brutality of organized
greed is exposing itself. The inner
council of Railway Executives reveais

Strength; More Men Out Each Day.

point. The entire south is out solid.
Trains continue to be annulled. and
this epidemic has spread from local to
through service. Shop yards in Chi
eago and elsewhere are becoming
choked with bad order cars and dis
abled locomotives. Members of the
train and engine service brotherhoods
are refusing to take out rolling stock
so decrepit as 10 imperil life. The
dragnet spread to collect strikebreak-
ers has thus far failed to pull in me-
chanics to relieve the distress of the
managers. Men competent to do this
class of work are not willing to scab
on their fellow-workers these days,
even with the promise of protection
and support of the United States
Railroad Labor Board and President
Harding.
Chairman Hooper is making a des-
perate effort to save the Labor Board
and has continued during the past
week to act as a self-appointed inter
mediary between the shop crafts offi-
cials and the railroad executives. The
latter have been told upon what terms
the men will return to work and that
is about as far as the negotiations
have progressed. There is a pereep-
tible rift in the ranks of the manag
ers, and break is expected almost
any day.
Many of the executives want to a.
cept the snop mems terms. but thus
far they have not been free to act
without consent of small committe,
of the Association of Railway Execu-
tives which dictates the labor policy
of the railroads as a whole.
Decision of the shop men not to
fight the injunctiQps and thus let the
courts and the managers do the wor-
rying has proven great success.
Today when lawyers for the Burling-
ton Road appeared in Judge Pages
Federal Court to argue that a tenn
porary injunction against picketing,
granted last week, be made perma-
nent, no one a~neared to resist the
order. 1t was made permanent. The
strikers are no worse of under q per-
manent Injunction than a temporary
one. Hence the strikers lost none OF
their energy nor money, and thus far
no strike official has been sent to jail,
neither have they broken the law.

Much has been printed in the pa
pers lately about the seniority rights
0f the striking shopmen, and that 1t
is the only stumbling block between
the strikers and the railroads IN
effecting a settlement.
Seniority Rights.
The proposition of the railroads to
deprive men of seniority rights, be-
cause of suspension of work, is utter
ly indefensible ii the facts are un-
derstood. Seniority rights involve
principally, first, the right of the sem
lor employe to be the last laid off In a
reduction of forces; second, the right
Of the senior empioye to have first
preference in selection TOR vacancies
In preferable jobs.
The first right is of great import
ance and has a large community
value. 1t results in encouraging per-
manent employment, the building OF
homes and making OF useful citizens.
The railway employees, as group, are
steady workers. They will average
between 10 and % years in continu-
Gus service. Having increasing GER
tainty of permanent employment the
longer they remain in service, they
are encouraged to buy homes and to
establish themselves in community
activities with assurance of continu-
Gus livelihood. To deprive hundreds
Oh thousands of men of these rights
and OF their assured position would
oe sweeping injustice, unparalleled
IN modern industry. 1t would operate
80 That in the event of reducing forces
tne railroads would be permitted to
uischarge the senior and most compe-
peht employees and to retain men en-
gaged for only short time in trans
portation service, for the most part a
noaung, nondescript collection of un-
reliable workers.
vi course, in fact the railroads
would Tor their own good retain the
senior, more efficient employees, ex.
sept that with seniority rights de-
sefoyed their position would be in
secure and the roads would be able to
neeo out those workers most active

A LITTLE ENCOUR-

J. ton to win. and instills spirit
j. OF stick -to-it -iveness into the
j. men, without which the prospect :
]. Of victory is very uncertain.
J. The railroad labor board has
y ordered wages Of shopmen cut
J. 10 the starvation point, and at

]. are unbearable have been inn
!. posed upon them. Rather than
!. submit to these demands they
J. have declared strike. These
J. men, many of them, have not
J. had steady employment for the
i. past year or SO, caused by the
!. desire Of the railroads to break
J. up the unions by farming out"
J. their repair work. Those who
J. were fortunate enough to secure
]. work were made the victims OF
J. several wage slashes, and the
J. finances of all are at very low
J. ebb.
y Brothers, ii takes money to
J. win. The fighting morale of the
]. men cannot be kept up on an
J. empty stomach. The wives and
]. kiddies of the strikers need sus-
J. tenance, and il is up to US TO see
!. they are properly taken care OF.
j. Headquarters for donations
j. for the shop mems cause have
