little of value was left here for the in
coming Chita troops. The retreating
White troops requisitioned all the wa

The White troops even took ship

is estimated that $4,000 people left this
city prior to the entry of the red forces.
During the panic they sold their pos
sessions greatly below their real value,
Sable coats were sold for few yen
and a French motor car went for to
rubles.
The panic was uncalled for, as thus
far the reds have not molested any
body.
Reports of a massacre at Nikolaesk
were denied by Japanese arriving from
there. The Chita forces have ex-
pressed "a ubSlle " HNE Win p0dSe anu

Although the red forces are made up
largely of boys who do not observe
the usual salutes of the army, they are
well disciplined and carry out com

The Chta troops although they have
been here but a few days, have already
established in conjunction with the
soviet government a railway service be-

LIVING WAGE PLAN
WOULD RUIN ROADS,
SAYS LABOR BOARD
Proposal of Maintenance of Way Organization,
Asking Arbiters to Fix Figure on Amount of
Money Needed by Families Is Attacked in
Reply of Railroad and Public's Representatives

After a deadlock lasting several days,
the board made public its decision,
formally handed down Sunday, in
creasing rates of pay 2 cents an hour
and adding about $20,00O,0O0 to the
railroad payroll.
Cost of Living Same?
The decision answered that the in
crease was due mostly to the fact
that higher rates of wages were be-
ing paid for the same classes of work
in other industries and that there had
been no appreciable increase in the
cost of living.
Mr.. Wharton, in his dissenting opin-
ion. maintained that the ''fundamen-
tai error of the decision rested upon
failure to inquire into 'the adequacy
of rates of pay established for sec
ton men and unskilled laborers.
He asserted that rates of pay in 9TH
Ter industries of similar character
should be made a secondary consid-
Grafton and that the prime factor to
be considered was whether the rates
fixed were just and reasonable, which,
he said. meant an adequate and lv
ing wage, under the terms of the
transportation act.
He maintained that the supply and
demand, which operated in private in
dustries to fix the price of labor,
should not be taken as basis by the
labor board. The board, he contended,
should find that what should be a
just and reasonable wage by comput-
ing a family budget containing the
expenses of the average family
