RAILROAD WORKERS
 ASK SEYMOUR DAY
BrOtherhoods Meet in Boston :
 Want Wage Scale Retained

Boston, April R}-From historic Faneuil hall. where thirteen years ago the movement for the eight hour day for railroad men had it's origin. a nation wide drive has been launched for the six hour day for the same class of workers.
 Announcement of the campaign as a means of combating unemploy- ment was coupled with the declar- ation that railroads would be asked to maintain the same basic wage scale as under the eight hour day.
 Simultaneous meetings in the hall and at nearby hotel of the Broth erhood of Railroad Trainmen and the Brotherhood of Locomotive Bremen and Enginemen were told that "all the big four train service end"
 We must go to congress for a bill of rights to>protect men who are being cast into the junk heap" declared Timothy Shea. assistant president of the engineers in an ad- dress in which he pointed to a con- tinued reduction of railroad per sonnel.
 Shea saw. in the proposed consoli- dation into major systems further threat to the jobs Of thousands of employees and asserted that neither the railroad labor act nor any oth- CT legislation can prevent the rail- road men of this country from walking out on strike to get jus tice."
 Alexander r. Whitney Of Cleve- land, president of the trainmen, told that organization that he did not believe that the inventor of labor saving machinery should reap all the returns from his invention, but only share, so that employer and em- ploye, especially the latter who has been hardest hit, may share in the increased production through high CT wages and shorter working hours,'
 A series Of similar regional meetings throughout the country is planned.

WASTE IN SCHOOL
FUNDS IS CHARGED
Yaden Defends Appropria.
lions for District-HaVen-
ner Takes Issue.

Declaring the inefncient and waste
full management Of school funds in the
District necessitates unreasonable de-
mands for congressional appropriations,
James G. Yaden. former president of
the Federation of Citizens Associations
and the Public School Association, at a
meeting Of the Anacostia Citizens and
Parent-Teacher Associations last night
urged Washington citizens to place less
reliance on congregational aid and more
stress on public school management.
Other speakers took issue with him.
Declaring that inadequate school IA
cilitieS are more attributable to IL
logical recommendations by school au-
thoritieS than to denial of congressional
appropriations Mr.. Yaden said: I'm
spite Of mounting expenditures for
schools, we have the spectacle of money
spent for additions to schools where
available space is not half filled. Of
schools built in sections where they
are not needed, and of poor showing all
around in the way of results in pro-
portion TO expenditures. Asserting
that any future appropriation demands
on Congress must be supported by
proven needs, he said, eft is imperative
that we formulate and present to com
mittees a workable and intelligent
school program"
Sharp issue was taken with Mr.. Yader
by President George G. Havenner, who
in expressing disappointment in the
appropriating system of Congress, de.
clared, I'm the last five-year building
program Anacostia gos about half a
much as any other section of the city
We imperatively need both q junior
high school and a. new elementary
school, and we win get them If we work
together"
Hitting Mr.. Yaden's defense Of con-
gressional liberality in appropriatins
school funds for the District, DR.. e. e
Richardson, president Of the Congress
Heights Citizens Association, said:
With the exception of the state Of
Georgia, We receive the lowest schoo
appropriation in proportion to the com
munity income of any State in the
Union. Furthermore, in the percent
age Of school property we can show as
against the percentage of the tangible
property we rank thirty-seventh among
the States"
