are prone to think that strikes are

this opinion in a statement issued to-

AS matter OF fact. we have very

since the war the strike curve has
been below the point which was then
called normal The fact that we have
had three strikes OF large dimensions
blinds us to this basic truth. Two OF
these strikes, tho coal strike and the
rail shipments strike. are In indus

the cotton textile strike. has been
partially Debated and the trouble II

The difficulties in these three indus
tries are then cases OF belated hos

For the most part labor is not
striking, wages are being gradually
let down to lower levels and the dis
position OF men is to keep at work
There Is always a rise in the strike
curve during the summer We are
having that rise now. Nevertheless
we are not having the number or the
wide distribution of strikes which we

Ey Associated Press 10 Every Evening.
Chicago, Aug. 19.-Whle wages Of
employees of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road increased considerably during the
war. retaining their high standard
even during the business depression
following, stockholders. beginning
with the slack-up OF business, have
been forced TO take much smaller
dividends, according TO a statement is
sued today by the management of the
road.
The statement said to be applicable
ing 20 the management, TO show by
depression and deflation affected the
income of holders Of Industrial secu.s-
ties as compared with the status of
labor during the same period.
The statement said to be applicable
to mos, roads OF the country says:
"In 1914 wages on cur railroad
average $3.50 a year per employe.
Today. after all readjustments, they
average $3.50. Our stockholders
number 10000. and the average
ownership is Il shares. Before tho
war IL shares yielded an income of
s213 a year In 1921 our directors
were forced TO reduce the dividend.
This cut the return OF the average
number OF shares TO s142 a year.
Our employees wages are So per
cent higher than in 1914. Our stock
holders are getting one-third less del
lars than in 1914. and like the en-
ployes. they have 10 meet the higher
cost OF living. AS between the stock
holder and the employee, the burdens
OF the war have fallen entirely upon
] the former.
The railroads have had 10 accept a
reduction in freight rates. Wages,
even in depressed years like 1921, took
over 81 per cent of every dollar paid
by the public fer service whereas,
after paying wages. taxes, material
and supply bills, fixed charges, etc.
less than 2 cents of every dollar of
revenue remained TO pay dividends
and maintain the credit OF the sys-
tenn"
The statement concluded with the
assertion that although there has been
a HNANcehbic Al edi
this year, there is little likelihood
that reduced dividends will be re-
stored or maintained dividends in
