quest that you consider this
as a counter proposal and as
formal notice Of our desire to
increase basic rates of pay
by 10 per cent effective on
and after July 1, 1884"
The unions charged the railroad
managers had made efforts to
place responsibility for the wage
controversy upon the railway Ia
Dor organizations and that the
reference by the managers to
skilled and unSkilled labor gave
the impression that low-paid rail
way workers are all unskilled
The union statement disputed this
saying:
"This reference is not in keep
ing with the facts. The men
being paid the extremely low
wages are skilled workers and
carry responsibility far out Of
proportion to their earnings.
Even If they were unskiIIed
the fact remains that they are
earning less than 0ne-half Of
the minima being recognized by
the NRA codes, and even by
the charitable institutions Of the.
country"
Sef-Interest Charged
Taking up another point made
by the management group, the
union statement declared:
"YOu have not said 50 in so
many words, but there can be
no question Of the implication
you intend to convey that a
diScOntinuance Of the wage
reduction on July l, 1884, will
in some manner undermine the
integrity Of savings banks and
life insurance companies.
"1n this case the implication
you have conveyed is unfOr-
tunate and unjuStified. To
give wide publicity to q state
ment questioning the integrity
Of these financial institutions
at q time when national re-
cOvery is well begun, but when
the forces of the depression
are not yet completely con-
Quered, is an unwiSe SubOrdina-
ton Of public welfare to the
desire Of the railway security
owners to maintain existing
railway wage deductions"

STEEL CODE HIT.
IN REPORT BY
COMMISSION
Federal Trade Survey Informs
Senate Price Fixing Hurts
Little Firms
By International News Service

Price.fixing in the steel indus
try, tending to eliminate small
enterprises, and increased prices
for steel products have been preva-
lent since adoption Of the NRA
steel code, the Federal Trade
Commission declared today in q
report to the Senate.
The inquiry was made under
the terms Of a resolution Of Sena-
tor Borah (R) Of Idaho
Under the provisions Of the
code and the methods Of its ap-
plication, prices for any given
product at any point OF delivery
are uniform, the report said.
Price Cuts Curbed
The method was described as
follows:
The mill base prices are either
identical at the time they are
filed with the code authority or
become so almost Immediately.
The authority may reject any
price which it determines to be
unfair and if the member fails to
file a satisfactory price, 1t may
fix the price.
No seller may make deductions
from the mill base price greater
than the code authority may ap-
prove and every seller must add
to the base price the minimum OF
extras-for quantity, quality,
shapes, sizes, processing, etc.-re-
quired by the code authority.
Prices charged must be for the
delivered product and the charge
for freight must be the amount
Of the freight from the basing
point of the district, no matter
from what point the goods are
shipped.
Little Firms Hit
The commission said this price
system was in violation Of the
Pittsburgh plus order which not
only prohibited the respondents
therein from the use of the Pitts
burgh basing point. but also from
quoting for sale or selling upon
any other basing point than that
where the products are manufac-
tured or from which they are
shipped"
This price system, the report
added, tends to eliminate the
small enterprise not located at
the basing point by requiring it
to charge the same amount for
freight on deliveries in its i'm
mediate vicinity as if the product
had been in fact shipped from
the basing point which is COM
monty a point at which mills OF
large competitors are located.
