President Of A. F. of L. Declares
Boards Action Unjust,

President Samuel Gompers of the
American Federation of Labor last
night issued a statement characteriz-
ing the decision of the Railroad Labor
Board in the case Of maintenance of
way employees as "a most unjust and
inequitable proceeding"
The minority decision, on the 9th ar

that it says the new wage will not
allow the father of family to pur-
chase as much food as is allowed an
inmate of the Cook county jail,
leaves little to be said in character
ization of the action of the majority.
He summarizes the situation by de-
claring that the railroad workers

years preceding this date facing a
steadily rising cost of living and
compelled to bear this increased cost
without any compensating wage in

MY calculation shows that the wages

17.8 per cent, down to 23 cents per
hour. Those least able to stand the
loss are hit hardest.
The decision penalizes the work
another illustration of the unfitness
of the Railroad Labor Board.
Whatever pretense of fairness the
majority may seek to throw around
its decision will be Of no value to those
who are to suffer the reduction in
wages, nor will it convince workers
anywhere Of the desirability of such
tribunals"
