PHILADELPHIA, June 29.---Declar-
ing that the Pennsylvania railroad
desired to obey every valid law"
enacted by properly constituted
authority, President Samuel Rea. in a
statement to employees last night,
said the management took specific
exception TO the statement Of the
Railroad Labor Board that the Penn
sylvania had denied to its employees
any Essential rights" to which Con-
sress had declared them entitled.
There is no warrant whatever for
such a statement" said Mr.. Rea- 'It
is regrettable," he added, that the
Railroad Labor Board In its attacks
upon the Pennsylvania railroad sys-
tenn is not entirely candid with the
public. The Labor Boards statements
convey the impression that our COM
pany was under obligation to COM
ply with the decisions Of the board
on account of the Supreme Court
decision.
Cites Court Decision.
THE fact is that the United States
Supreme Court made it very plain
that our company was not obliged to
observe the Labor Boards decision If
1t felt that its constitutional and
legal rights were being invaded The
management was firmly convinced
that the constitutional and legal
rights of the company and its en-
ployes would be invaded II it COM
piled with the decisions of the board
In the shop crafts and clerks cases. "
The statement said:
"Apparently the Labor Board con-
siGers itself to be the arbiter of rules
to be perpetual struggle between
railroad and its employees. The pur-
pose of the management is not to
struggle against or to triumph over
its employees, but to gain their 10y
atty and cooperation by a policy of
fair dealing. mutual consultation and
just compensation.
Tries to Serve Public.
There is now no dispute Of any
consequence with our employees which
We believe will not be amicably ad-
justed. The only real discordant note
is that being sounded by the Labor
Board.
"ln compliance with the provisions
of the transportation act. the desire
of the management Is TO promote the
efficiency of this company's service
TO the public through placing upon
1ationship between the management
and its employees, but it is firmly con-
