BY the Associated Press
NEW YORK, November 30.-Prompt
and practical cooperation Of Federal
and State governments for protection
of railway credits was urged yesterday
by W. w. Atterbury. president Of the
Pennsylvania Railroad.
Pointing to a $34,910,66 decrease in
net railway earnings for the first nine
months of this year, as compared to
the same period In 1880, Mr.. Atterbury
asked for Government aid in enabling
the carriers to meet maturing obliga-
tions by protecting their credits.
THE situation of the railroads re-
quires definite and prompt, practical
cooperation to protect their credit
to obtain at reasonable cost the
new capital necessary for providing
new facilities and equipment, for i'm
proving transportation and thus aid in
creating additional employment for
workers In other branches of industry
as well as for railroad employees.

STRIKE SPREADS
in PHILIPPINES

Gable reports from the Philippines
to capitalist papers in New York
state that the strike movement In
the islands is rapidly spreading.
More than 200 workers of the Stand
ard Oil Co. went out on strike, when
80 of their workers were fired
because they belonged to a militant
union. The union leaders declared
they would call strike in all the oil
plants. involving over 1900 men, If
the workers fired were not reinstated.
The report to the New York Times
states: "A suggestion has been made
that Communist influence is behind
the movement and that there is a
possibility such a strike would be the
signal Cor general disturbance"
The 5000 longshoremen at Iloilo,
Panay Island, were reported back at
work, but the report does not state
whether they won their demands.
They undoubtedly did, as they were
militant in their strike activities.
Negotiations are under way for the
ending Of the strike of 600 long
shoremen among the sugar centrals
of Occidental Negros Province, Ne
gros Islands.

bring the negotiations to Standstill.
The London correspondent of the
Herald Tribune, referring to this
statement, said that, 1.-THE govern
ment is pursuing confidential in
quiries as to the probs5Io results Of
a simultaneous reduction of wages
and prices throughout industry"
The Labor government and the
bosses are agreed that this wage cut
should be put into effect. The action
Of Philip Snowden in taking the
initiative Of organizing the indus
trialists for this blow is clearly sig
nificant Most of the union leaders
who follow Macdonald are for the
wage cut but the Herald-Tribune
correspondent admits lit would be
impossible to put it through without
prior agreement with the trade
unions, The proposal of 'reduc-
ton in prices" is the bait that the
bosses are handing out so that the
trade union leaders can aid the
Labor government in swinging the
wage cut.
We are told by the Herald-Tribune
writer that the unions might con-
slider it expedient to accept a national
reduction of wages applying to all
trades and limited to 10 per cent if
accompanied by a guaranty that
prices would be brought down to a
similar extent"
The whole scherle is one to keep
up the profits of the bosses at the
expense of the British working class.
The talk about reduction in prices"
is the lever to aid the union mis-
leaders to put it over. Against this
attack, the Communist Party of Bril-
tain is rallying the workers, pointing
out the meaning of the unity of the
bosses and the Labor" party against
the workers.
