RAILROADS GOT
BIGGEST DIVIDEND
in HIST @ R Y :"
Railway Union Offic-
ials Seek Way to Cut
Wages of Workers

CHICAGO, Nov. 29.-Donald Rich
berg liberal lawyer authority on
public utilities and railroads, declared
that the largest dividends in history
we're paid owners of railroad stock in
1890" and railroads have been OPP
Grating at profit" Richberg's state
ment was made against the proposal
of 10 per cent wage cut demanded
by the railroads.
The statement was made with re-
gard to the Forthcoming meeting of
the officials of the 81 railroad broth
erhoods scheduled here for Dec. g.
The railroad union officials are try
ing to find some way of helping the
railroad bosses put over the wage cut
of 10 per cent for the 100000 rail-
road workers. Because of the resist
ance of the men this has been diff
cult
The railroad union officials we're
ready TO grant a 10 per cent wage
cut, if the railroad magnates would
cook up some scheme of "unemploy-
nent rejief," but even this round
about way of wage cut was not ac-
cepted. They demanded a direct
wage cut This the union officials
are now considering
The answer to the proposed wage
cut drive can be given by the rank
and file OF the railroad workers in
preparing for strike. The statements
OF the railroad union officials shows
that they are quite willing to go along
with the bosses but fear the action of
the men. Strike is the only weapon
to defeat the wage cuts proposed by
the rail bosses.

that Mayor Walker, through Russell

There is g great deal beneath the

Union, But the bosses did not sue
coed to drive away the pickets from
the laundry. 1t is worth noticing
that the policeman did not even try
to stop the gangsters from attacking
the piekets.
Committees of strikers and union
members in approaching scabs are
faced with carloads of gorillas and
detectives. On one occasion when a
committee stopped to talk to a work
er who is too terrorized by the boss
to go out on strike, the gangsters or
detectives pulled out guns and
threatened the strikers with their
lives. But the committee was not
scared and insisted on their right in
spite of the guns.
The Laundry Workers Union, 2eO
E. 138th ST., is determined to spread
the strike in face of all difficulties
and put up a strong fight for the
demands of the workers, such as,
1. The return of the 10 per cent
wage cut to the inside workers. 2.
A guarantee of $50 for the drivers.
3. A commission wage of SIS and Is
per cent. 4. An hour day for the
inside workers. S. No firing. Recog-
milton of the union.
The Laundry Workers Union asks
all workers to come and help us in
the strike activity. A Laundry strike
must be carried on all over the city
besides picketing the shop, and that
is why we need help.
