Enginemen Anticipate Little Trouble
 in Getting Old Rate Restored.

Cleveland, Dec. 1.-Peacefu1 settle ment of the demands of the Brother hood of Locomotive Engineers and Brotherhood of Locomotive Bremen and Enginemen, and restration of the peak wages of 1920 are the stakes for which the railroad union execu- lives are playing in the forthcoming conference over wages and working conditions with the officials of the New York Central Railroad in New " ork, Dec. 4.
 This meeting IS the first of a series arranged with the railway executives to discuss demands for wage in creases, necessitated, according to the claims of the labor leaders, by in creased living costs and comparative wages paid in industrial life
 Union officials believe that a set clement will be reached with the New York Central without difficulty and that the example of this railroad one of the largest in the country, will whip into line the little fellows, who might otherwise be inclined to take their cases before the railway labor board

Pager Puts In New

 Mfr. Pager5s action was in sharp contrast to the attitude of other mer- chants approached by the salesman, they telling him that they had no call for union-made goods and practically that they didn't believe union men would buy them. MT. Pager, how ever, knows better and readily took the new line and thus gave an oppor- tunity to Labor men in New Haven to show their appreciation of the friend iy attitude toward them by recipro- eating through increased purchases in the store.

Decline to Be Forced

Washington, Dec. 1.-Railroad conso- lidation through voluntary action and natural development rather than by the force of law is favored by a committee appointed by the United States chamber of commerce to study this question.
 Under the transportation act railroads are permitted to merge, but no definite progress has been made along these lines. There is talk among some mem bers of congress to force mergers, if the railroads fail to work out a plan of voluntary consolidation.
 This proposal is opposed by the cham Der of commerce committee which pro tests against using law to solve such an involved economic and legal question as the consolidation of railroads

Union To Renew,
(Continued from Page JOne.)

A wage reduction of 25 per cent, which became effective a few weeks ago in the Fairmont and other non union fields, is thought to have much to do with the union officials decis- ion to renew the fight there at this time. During the 1922 strike. when hese fields were supplying most of the coal which was marketed, the heavy demand brought the wages in the non-union fields almost up to the full union scale of 7.5p a day. The nofl-iInion men had been receiving this pay until the 25 per cent. reduc- ton went into effect, which is said to have brought them down to less than $5 day.
 The grumbling and dissatisfaction in which the wage cut resulted is said to have convinced the union leaders that the time was ripe for another at tempt at unionizing the fields in this state, and 1t is expected that organ izers again will attempt to enter mountain coal camps within the next few weeks.
 The unions effort here is consid- cred part of it's preparation for the nationwide strike which is expected to come when the present agree iAAShLo 1Odl OpGTdtOIS union fields throughout the country expire on April I. As in the five months strike of 1922, the West Vir- ginia mines would be expected to sup ply large proportion of the coal on which the country would be forced to subsist. If all the miners in West Virginia can be induced to join the union ranks before April almost a total stoppage of biturninous produc- tion could be ordered by the union.
 Delegates now are being chosen by the district organizations of the union to attend the national convention which IS be held in Indianapolis on January go. West Virginia is expect ed to have strong delegation pres ent, and the success or failure of the uraonization campaign here is expect ed to have considerable effect on the demands which will be formulated at the convention for presentation to the coal operators when the wage nego- tiations are begun.
 These negotiations will be between John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, his scale com mittee and associations of operators in the several fields dealing with the union.

 E. T.

LABOR MOBlLIZES TO PROTECT
 TOILERS INTEREST IN CONGRESS;
 IMMIGRATION. CHILD LABOR PROBLEMS

By International Labor News Service Washington, D. C., Dec. Amer ican labor has mobilized it's forces for the coming session of congress and an organization of fully 75 labor leg islative representatives IS already on the job.
 The first meeting of the American Federation of Labor Joint Legisla- tive Conference already has been held and before the new congress opens a second session will be held.
 The Joint Legislative Conference includes the legislative committee of the American Federation and the legislative representatives of all bona fide trade union organizations that maintain such representatives in. Washington. The conference repre- sents six million trade unionists.
 Following the first session of the conference President Gompers ex- pressed his satisfaction at the prog ress achieved and his hope that the conference would be able to contri- bute much to the advancement of la bor's cause during the coming ses- sion of congress. He said:
 "The entire legislative situation was canvassed by the conference. Particular attention was conferred on immigration legislation. The present immigration act expires on June 3o' and therefore immigration legislation must be considered at an early date by the incoming congress.
 "Child labor also was considered, the conference being pledged to work for a constitutional amendment on the Permanent Conference for the Abolition of Child Labor, consisting of sixteen national organizations, will help make pains in that connection
 Full dozen other important legislative questions were discussed and three committees were appointed to make special studies on important matters. The probable strength of the forces that will favor construc- tive and progressive measures was considered. Members of the confer ence expressed themselves as hopeful that the session will be productive of benefit to the masses of the people

THE PALACE.

One of the most ambitious condensed versions of muscial comedy success that has been fitted out expressly for vaudeville service is the Molly Darl- ing Revue" which leads bright and es- ppecially promising seven act bill at the Palace on Monday Tuesday and We'd tnesday. Molly Darling" will be re- called bp theatre goers as particularly bright, ttinefu and catchy musical come dy production that enjoyed extended runs in large cities and profitable tours on the road. It was a production of the top class commanding the highest scale of admission in the big legitimate houses.
 The Molly Darling Revue" actually brings to vaudeville concentration of the very best and most likable features of a big musical comedy success that played at a top scale of admission the country over and gives its patrons the opportunity of seeing in an hour what the larger drawn out methods of mrsi- cal comedy required two hours and a. half to present, and another thing to re member is, this comes at Palace prices instead of higher admissions charged for the original production.
 Heading for the Palace to fill a spe- cial featured position on the coming bill IS one of the most tingling thrills of yaudevil1. This is WeIdano's Sensa- tion, a highly spectacular exhibition of gymnastics daring. The trio of gynna- asts appearing in this act employ revolv- ing or swaying apparatus for all their feats therefore adding the hazards Of motion to their already daring tricks. Weldano's Sensation has a reputation of putting breath catches in any program on which 1t appears.

scribe to those rules or go out of busi- ness.
 Conceeding that such plan in so far as it stifed the purchase of building ma terials in the channels of interstate com merce was violation of the antitrust law, the Attorney General directed that suit be instituted agains the Exchange to enjoin its members from carrying out the plan. Soon after the litigation be- gun, the government asked that, pending the instruction of testimony and until the final submission of the case, pre- liminary injunction be issued. The court, however, declined to issue one and an- nounced that all the evidence which ei- ther side had to offer must first be in- troduced
 This situation occasioned considerable time and the case was finally closed at the end of October. Judge Dooling, be- fore whom the trial and arguments took place, rendered his decision today, how ever upholding the attorney generals contentious and announced that an in junction would be issued as prayed for bv the government.

R. R. LABOR BOARD
 DOES SOME LODGING

Chicago, Dec. I'm decisions in volving striking employees of the ir- ginian railroad, the Railroad Labor Board blamed both the company and workers for the dispute which led up on that road.
 In a masterful exhibition of word juggling, the board said the strike was caused by mutual suspicion"
 The workers have shown that the strike was caused by the proven phy- sical fact that men risk their lives on gigantic engines when hauling long freight trains through tunnels on that railroad.
 Engineers and hremen testified be- fore the board that at times these tunnels are like blast furnaces, and in some instances they were forced to jump for their lives One engineer testified that the skin on his face and ears peeled off. The management compels such long trains that three engines are used This fills the tun- nels with gases and terrific heat that compe1s the engineers and fire men to often hold wet sponges to their mouth and nostrils.
 Added to these deadly working con- ditions, the road has used defective equipment
 With childish simplicity, the labor board ignores these facts, and would have the public believe that the trou- b1e on the irginian is caused by "mu- tual suspicion"
