CHANGE MEANS
WAGE CUTTING
Boston Carmen Vote
n for Strike
By rom BELL.
SPECIAL to The Daily worker.l

NSpecadl TO y ne GdltI NpIkeF-l
BOSTON, Mass, July 1s--Union
street car men employed by the Bos-
ton Elevated company have voted
overwhelmingly for a strike to force
the company to abandon their stand
on arbitration. The vote was: For
strike, 4,e5e; against 1877. This en-
powersA the wage committee to set
the date Nor the strike, and to call Il
when advisable. Z"
For many weeks the company has
been insisting that the method Of arbi-
tration be changed The union Is in
sisting that the arbitration method
laid down in the agreement with the
company be carried out. Behind all
this juggling with words there is the
determination of the company to cut
wages if at all possible.
1t was against any possibility Of
wage cut that the rank and file voted.
This overwhelming vote for strike is
also a demand on the union officials
that they cut loose from the continual
conferences with the bosses on the
question of arbitration.
The trustees of the company have
visited Gov. Fuller to lay the case be-
fore him. 1t is stated that he is deter
mined to take all steps possible to
prevent a strike. President Green Of
the A. F. of L. is in town and stated
that the differences between the union
and the company are so slight that no
trouble should be had in finding q
common ground for a settlement. John
II. Reardon, general executive board
member of the union, is In charge Of
the situation.
All of these people seem TO have
lost sight Of the fact that thel carmen
have voted for strike, and that such
a strike would bring the company 70
its knees. But they are all blabbering
about a common ground of agree
ment." and the statements of the
governor and those Of Green are iden-
teal All OF them are afraid of
strike. The rank and file know that
they are faced with cut In wages If
strong action is not taken to bring
the company to terms, and they have
voted for such action.
