RAILROAD REGIONAL
WAGE NEGOTIATIONS
COMPLETE FAILURE
[RepubIIean A. ?. leased Wlre1

=
CHICAGO, March 20 Complete
failure of the regional negotiations
between railroad managements and
the engineers and firemen's brother
hoods, in an effort to settle disputes
over wages and working conditions,
was revealed today when the United
States railroad labor board set
hearing for disputes involving engin-
eers and firemens rules on all rail-
roads to Immediately follow the pres
ent wage hearing, which is expected
to end by April Is.
The announcement was said by
railroad men to lend the first authen-
tic information of the reported split
between engineers and firemen and
the conductors and trainmen's broth
erhoods. Conferences between the
two latter organizations and the rail-
roads are still in progress with pros
poets, many railroad men say. of
reaching an agreement. Attempts to
arrive at a new wage agreement and
to settle controversies over working
rules were made in three regional
conferences which began the middle
of last month. Desiring to avoid car
rying their troubles to the labor
board the big four brotherhoods,
which have for years acted with
solid front. requested Secretary Of
Commerce Hoover to call the rail-
road brotherhood heads together in
an attempt at settlement of their
differences. Plans for regional con-
ferences with the eastern roads in
New York. the southern roads in
Washington, and the western roads
in Chicago. resulted.
Meanwhile. the labor board held In
allegiance the train service mems
rules disputes before the board for
settlement. The four brotherhoods
were likewise excluded from the
present wage hearing because Of the
the boards promise at the time of
the threatened strike last fall, to
settle ali rule controversies before
acting on further wage cuts proposed
by the carriers.
The first intimation OF a division
within the brotherhood ranks came
early during the negotiations when
Warren S. Stone, grand chief of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engin-
eers, and w. S. Carter, head of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
and Enginemen. went into conference
alone with a committee of eastern
railroad officials.
H. e. Sheppard, president OF the
Order Of Railway Conductors and W.
G. Lee. president Of the Brotherhood
OF Railroad Trainmen, were left to
hold separate conferences with the
roads

in two or three years some such de-

special session as an appointee from
Cochise county to fill the vacancy
occasioned by the resignation OF
Dana T. Miner.
"Adios"
Mr. Hays left the chamber after
his motion was voted down and re-
turned with a ditty-bag, into which,
amid the breathless silence OF the
house, he swept the contents OF his
desk. When he had thus put himself
into marching order he turned toward
the chair and said: "Mr. Chairman,
adiosl NV usefulness here seems to
be ended and am A. w. o. L." As
he was leaving the chamber several
OF his friends gathered about him to
dissuade him, but he swept them
aside and went out into the corridor.
1t was later understood that Mr..
HAYS went home, but that he would
return after the disposition OF some
private business.
When the committee had finished
the banking code It recommended II

inheritance tax bill with the amend

standing committee. These amend

from the senate was recompended
for passage. This bill had once been
marked for defeat.
The Larson motor vehicle tax bill
was also favorably recommended.
Similar favorable action was taken
on Senator Curtin's bill providing for
an inspection tax on transient herds
after Mr.. Curtin had been invited TO
address the committee, explaining the
measure. The house also attached
the emergency clause.

ROOT DECLARES OLD
SCHOOL DIPLOMACY
IS THING Of PAST
[RepubIiean a. p. Leased WIrel

SAN FRANCISCO. March %
Open diplomacy is one of the good
things that necessarily must come
with the control of foreign affairs
by the people themselves, but open
diplomacy does not mean the exclu-
sion of common sense" said Elihu
Root in a luncheon address here to-
day before the Commonwealth club.
While the intrigue of the old school
diplomacy that inevitably led to war
is gone, he declared. there is a new
danger of stirring up trouble by
loose, uniformed talk. The duty OF
democracies Is not to slander each
other, he said. When two men mis-
understand each other their troubles
usually can be settled by getting
them together to talk things over"
Mr.. Root said THAT is just what
happened in the four power treaty"
According to the speaker, such con-
ferences had averted war at least
twice in the past and would have done
so in 1914 il Sir Edward Grey's plans
had succeeded.
IF there is a controversy the most
important thing is to get some one
to change his mind" he continued.
III he Is wrong. make it easy for him
to admit IL: if you are wrong keep
in a position where you can admit IT..
THE man who comes out publicly
does not dare to change his mind.
1t is more important that before you
get a man in public you get him
right. That IS what happened in the
four power treaty.
Half truths some times involved
in open diplomacy should not be
pressed to far.
'More quarrels have come from in
suits than from injuries. II democ-
racy is to conduct foreign affairs
without taking the nation into strife
it must not give cause for resent
ment in the minds Of other peoples"
Mr.. Root said a "vindicative mi
nority" could carry things to point
to which the great majority would
not agree with no punishment until
the great, good natured majority de-
cides to act against the public orator
who stirs up friendly nations.
1--WE are venturing now on a great
undertaking OF directing foreign re-
lations," he added. "and the people
the first great lesson of their duties
to punish with disapproval the man
who wilfully stirs up the aninlosity
OF foreign countries"
Mr.. Root Eaid this could be done
by refusing votes at the polls TO the
men who are against the peace of the
world. and by stopping their patron
age and advertising in newspapers
guilty Of same.
"It is our duty so to direct the for
eign relations of our country that the
power Of public opinion shall be for
peace"

UNION LEADER SAYS
CAPITAL SEEKS To
ST|FLE PRODUCERS
TRepubIlean A. p. Leased Who

CHICAGO, Mar. 29.-Industry can
pay a living wage II it wants to- B.
NJ. Jewell, president OF the railway
employees department, American
Federation OF Labor, declared today
in summing up his argument for an
increase in wages for a half million
shop craft workers before the Unit
ed states railroad labor board.
The speaker contended that an
analysis of the possibility OF physical
production undertaken by competent
economists proved that the physical
resources, the plant, the labor power
and the scientific knowledge of the
United States are such that a living
wage is possible for all who work il
industry is directed to that end.
THAT industry does not intend to
pay this living wage is clear from
the way in which il squeezed the
workers and the farmers during the
periods of initiation and deflation," he
asserted. The shop craft spokesman
further charged that interests which
he said were back of the railroads
demand fora new pay cut are plan
ming new raids on the income or
all wage earners and farmers when
they have emerged from the present
depression.
"They are holding the lid on until
they get low wages in all industries,
including low returns to farmers, so
that when increased production IS
again initiated they can absorb the
entire increase" he said. "The dis
crepancy between prices and wages
which was manifest during the recent
initiation period will be repeated.
This policy Is pursued because In
terest. rents and dividends are
deemed mere important than the pay
ment to wage earners Of the means OF
buying regular supplies which their
families need for health and comfort.
Inevitably there follows an increas-
ing absorption Of the national pur-
chasing power by so small a percent
age of the population that it ceases
to create a normal demand for enough
essentials to meet the real require
ments of the country.
"To maintain their gains this mi
nority is developing a nation of COM
mercial warriors and sitting its pro-
ducers. Startling proof of this is
found in the census of occupations OF
New York state Between 1910 ana
1920 productive labor in agriculture
decreased 20 per cent and productive
labor in industry increased by barely
II per cent. But the number OF hu-
man beings engaged in the CONNER
cial fight for profits increased by
3S per cent, over three times as Dig
an increast as that in the case OF the
productive industrial workers"
