law, they say.
Bank on Cut Estimates
The railroads at first chiefly based
their opposition to the six-hour day
on the ground that it was not feasible
in rail operation. They have now
largely abandoned this argument in
favor of the contention that the short
day would impose too great a finan-
cial burden on them. They are hail
ing the |. c. C. report as at least par
TALLY backing up this contention. In
this connection, labor spokesmen are
pointing out that the railroads esti-
mated that the maximum cost of ap-
plying the six-hour day would be
| STOP, ,408,955 under the 1880 wage
scales. The |. C. C. cut this estimate
to $630,000,000 in its report and rail-
road labor will contend that even this
estimate is absurdly high.
The commission said that it's re-
port and findings were based almost
entirely on facts presented at hear.
ings and from testimony given BY
both the railroads and their employees
| Apparently the railroads fear tt
make an actual test of the six-hou,
day, as the commission said that while
the only accurate way Of determining
the effects of applying the shorter
day was to make an actual trial of il
on a railroad or part of line, the
railroads had all refused to make
such a trial, and limited their effort.
to facilitating field tests under the
commissions direction. This was i'm
possible under the reduced appropria
ton for the commission, the repor
added.
Workers Seek More Jobs
Representatives of the railroat
workers testified before the commits
sion that it is not their purpose Il
have the six-hour day adopted as |
method of increasing wages but t.
restore employment to former work
ers without lowering standards o
living through a reduction in earn
ings. On this point the commission
reported to congress that such ques
ton bears directly on the wisdom ant
experience of adopting the shorte
day, matter outside the scope O
its investigation. Other matter

working only part time, but all in
dustry has been sliding down hill. As
we predicted, new cycle of wage
cutting followed our action with fur
ther great losses of purchasing power
resulting in further declines of busi-
ness and railroad traffic.
Nov we are observing signs of
economic recovery. No measure to-
day could be more harmful to- the
whole nation than new drive to be-
gin new cycle Of wage cutting-to
bleed white the fading buying power
of the masses of the people. Let it
be quite clear that railroad labor will
not submit to such program OF
national suicide"

Findings Held Big Impetus to Labor Campaign
Figures Showing Added Cost of Short Day to be Attacked
By Railroad Workers as Far Too High
tcsssrsAs ". y. ~

Washington, D. c. 1LNS)-Virtual
approval of the six-hour day for rail-
road employees, made in an interstate
commerce commission report, is con-
sidered here a tremendous boost to
the movement for the six-hour day
throughout industry. The report is
expected to give powerful impetus
to the movement for six-hour day
for government and railroad en-
ployes, which will be vigorously
pressed by labor at the next session
of congress.
The interstate commerce commits
sion, as the result of an exhaustive
investigation of the six-hour day for
railroad workers, reported that the
shorter day would have no adverse
effect on the operations and service
of the railroad industry if revenues
were sufficient to cover the increased
operating expenses and still maintain
credit. The shorter day would give
employment, under present conditions,
to from $4,000 to 100000 more en-
ployes, the commission said.
1t has been contended that it would
be more difficult to apply the six-hour
day to the railroads than to most
other industries. Now comes the in
terstate commerce commission and
says fatty that a railroad six-hour
day is feasible. If it can be applied
to the railroad industry, admittedly
presenting difficulties, why can not it
be applied generally? the capital is
asking.
Added Cost Figures Hit
| The l. C. c. reported that the initial
effect of the six-hour day would be to
increase operating expenses by $780,
100000 year, assuming the same
operations and traffic that prevailed
in 1880, and provided that no cuts
were made in the then existing rates
of pay for an eight-hour day. Max
ing allowances for the 10 per cent
wage deduction now in effect, it was
estimated that the shorter day woule
mean an added cost of $50, ,000, ,00(
q year.
| Organized railroad employees are
expected to make a vigorous assault
on the commissions figures for in
creased expenses under the six-houl
day. A. F. Whitney, president of the
Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmer
and chairman of the Railroad Labor
Executives Association, has alread!
criticized the figures as far too higf
and a general attack on them by la
Dor is foreseen. The labor executives
are in session at Chicago, where the.
have just rejected a demand Of th'
railroads for an indefinite extension
of the 10 per cent wage cut, put int
effect for year from January 81
1882.
d International Labor News Servic,
is able to say that the railroad unions
will contend that the six-hour da.
will bring marked savings by speed
ing up of service and operation, whicl
they point out will be in the publi
service. They declare that ever,
/ shortening of railroad hours in tn
{ past has brought better and speedie
service, which has been of immeas
urable benefit to industry and tn
travelling public. This was the cas-
following the passage Of the Adam

l. {. Commission Report
Calls Six-Hour Day Feasible
SALES TAX
Will Be Fought BY Labor
To Last Ditch

Cincinnati, Ohio (ILNS)-Organ-
lied labor will go before the United
States congress, backed by the voice
of the A. F. of L. convention here,
to oppose the sales tax.
The sales tax is slated to come be-
for the short session and battle
royal is in prospect.
Reporting for the committee on
legislation, Thomas F. Flaherty
brought to the convention stirring
declaration against the sales tax as
device by which the rich hope to
escape, throwing the burden with ad-
ditional severity upon the wage earn
ers and farmers. The convention
| voted unanimously for a bitter end
| fight on the sales tax proposal.
Immigrant Bootlegging Hit
The convention voted also to de-
mand application of the immigration
and exclusion laws to seamen, 80 that
the practice of bootlegging immi-
grants in as seamen may be stopped
and SO that seamen who come ashore
and forget their ships may be treated
as immigration aliens unlawfully
here.
The proposal that labor support the
program for development of the Cal
umet waterway was sent to the ex-
ecutive council for further hearing
and study.
When the report to condemn finger
printing in civil service came before
the convention, to be adopted, Presi-
dent Andrew Furuseth told the con-
vention government employees ought
to revert to an old custom and wear
gloves, to defeat the finger-printers
Organization Work Backed
The convention has been generous
in adopting all resolutions calling for
assistance in organizing work and the
support of union products.
| 1t adopted, without debate, report
on government personnel classified
ton, agreeable to all unions, in
marked contrast to the battle of last
year which gave the National FEEDER
alton of Federal Employees the excuse
for secession, to be followed by or
ganization of the new American Fed
eratin of Government Employees, rep
resented here by Vice President David
R. Glass.
| DIR. Fritz Rager, Vienna, addressed
the convention upon invitation OF
President Green, to explain the Aus
trian system of unemployment insur.

trian law has been amended % times
