EASTERN ROADS
LAUNCH FIGHT
ON HIGH WAGE
Offer Statistics to Prove Pay
of ShOpmen Is I'M
reasonable.

CHICAGO, March S.-Eastern railroads
today took up the attack on the wages
of their shopmen before the United States
railway labor board. John G. Walber,
appearing as spokesman for the Eastern
roads, placed in evidence a vast quantity
Of statistical data which he supplemented
with oral arguments.
Western railroads presented their case
as the first move in the mass play the
railroads are making to bring down the
wages of certain classes Of their en-
ployes. The roads apparently are de-
pending upon q vast mass OF statistics
to support their contention wages or
railroad employees are higher than those
paid workers in other industries. Prac-
tically every State In the Union has been
subjected to an industrial survey In the
assembling of the wage data. The same
method of procedure Is to be followed
by the railroads when the cOst-of-l living
phase of the inquiry is brought up. 1t
is evident the roads rely on cold figures
to overcome the arguments of the men
for maintenance Of existing wage scales.
Dissatisfaction with the method OF pro-
cedure adopted by the labor board Is ap-
parent, both the roads and the labor men
contending It is cumbersome. This pro-
cedure requires evidence must be pre-
scented for each class Of work which the
rail men and the union leaders contend
might be presented for all classes at once
Charges OF favoritism and discrimina-
ton will be the strongest factor Of the
unions defense, according to present In
dicatlons

ATTAINS HEIGHTS
IN MOTOR WORLD
Harry Cunningham Has
Played Big Parts.

Despite the immortal feats OF Capt.
Eddie RickenJacker and the production
miracles worked by Walter E. Flanders
and notwithstanding the remarkable ca
reer Of Barney Everett-the automottve
life Of Harry Cunningham, although sell
dom advertised. is in many ways the
most colorful in the Rickenbacker group,
SAYS q statement of the Rickenb2cker
Motor Company today.
"At u years OF aga he apprenticed IN
a machine shop. Two years later he
started as a tool maker at time when
A yearly production Of twenty-five cars
was a big volume. He gave Barney Old
field his first lesson in driving an auto
mobile. Later OIdfeld and Cunningham
became the first professional auto racing
team in America.
when the WintOn company hac
reached the then remarkable total of
seventeen cars in the State Of Michi-
gan. Cunningham was sent to Detroit to
do some expert service work. He did
such good work that he collected $50
in tips from WintOn owners and has
been a citizen Of Detroit ever since.
He knew Henry Ford and gained his
friendship at a time when the great
manufacturer was lOLdlE uAhuoHA. II
times Ford asked Tim to assist In getting
repair work for his little shop. Later
he Joined Ford and due to his ability
and service was soon appointed manager
OF the Detroit branch. In 1906 he took
some Fords to Europe. Since then many
thousands have been shipped but the
honor Of delivering the first Ford car to
the continent Of Europe goes to Harry
Cunningham.
In 1910 he organized the Cunningham
Auto Company distributing the E. ". F..
throughout Michigan. For ten years this
organization thrived, subsequently rep
resenting Studebaker and Maxwell.
During this period he was closely
allied with Walter E. Flanders under
whom he served as consulting engineer
for the Maxwell Motor Company. And so
it can be said that Harry Cunningham
is one Of the few men in the industry Of
Motor Cars who has attained a con-
spicuous place both as q great man
ufacturer and a successful distributor in
the field"

Yam Sims had all eyes turned on him
at Bounding Billows Saturday afternoon,
and bids fair to be some sort Of public
man. He had gathered up close to hear
the brass band play, and while he was
not noticing, he stood too close and was
accidentally hit by the bass drummer
who was making a fine run on his instru-
ment. Yam Immediately apologized to
him, and no hard feelings were en-
gendered.
