APPROVE BOARD
Appeal Court to Adjust Diff
ferenCeS Is Seventh
of system.

The establishment of the seventh
System Board of Adjustment for
the settlement, by mutual confer
ence, of differences arising between
employees and management of the
entire Pennsylvania Railroad Sys-
TEN was announced here today at
divisional headquarters.
The agreement establishing the
new board as a court OF appeals is
signed for the employees by Jesse
Clark, Terre Haute, general chair
man. Brotherhood of Railroad Sig
nalmen of America, and for the
management by the four regional
general managers.
The jurisdiction of the new board
covers the 5000 signalmen, signal
maintainers and their helpers
through the Pennsylvania Railroad
System, including the Long Island
Railroad. This brings the total num-
Der of employees whose relations with
the management are now handled
through system boards of adjust
ment to nearly 100000 or IS per
cent of the entire force.
The boards previously formed in
cluded the engine and train service
men, maintenance of way employees,
shop crafts, telegraphers, miscella-
neous forces and clerks.
Under the agreements all differ
ences shall first be discussed by
workers representatives with the
local or general officers of the rail-
road The Adjustment Board will
act on appeals. Its ruling will be
final.
Equal representation and voting
power is granted the employees.
Two-thirds vote is necessary to
reach a decision. All of the System
Adjustment Boards on the Penn
sylvania Railroad have been Great
ed in accordance with the amend
ments to the Railway Labor Act
made at the last session of Con-
gresS.

by the city council. At the expira-
ton Of their respective terms which
vary, the board shall appoint its
own successors. At present there
is a vacancy on this board, result
ing from the death of one of its
members.
The statute creating the Depart
ment of Public Utilities is flexible
enough so that this agency. with
necessary additions to its staff, can
assume the management, regulation
and control of all public utilities in
which the city may become inter-
eSted
Powers are given the board OF
directors to take over the manage
ment of the Milburn By-Products
Coal Co, the entire outstanding
stock of which is owned by the
Citizens Gas Co. and the title to
which will succeed to the city in the
event Indianapolis takes over the
property.

Some Return Only Fair,
Says Steel Man on Re-
turn From Europe.

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, March 29-Charles
NJ. Schwab believes that some re-
turn" is necessary to stimulate the
manufacture of munitions during an
emergency, he said today following
his return from three-week visit
with friends including the mystery
man of Europe, Sir Basil Zaharoft,
on the Riviera.
Good humoredly, the chairman of
Bethlehem Steel denied that he had
talked munitions" while abroad or
that he had gone to France to get
European arms business for his
company
His only Grand, he said, was to
improve his health and he had no
interest in an international gather
ing of rail manufacturers, all in
directly involved in the war bust
ness, which took place while he was
on the Riviera.
Sounds Gloomy Note
Still vigorous at 70, Mr. Schwab
surprised interviewers by voicing
one of his few pessimistic state
ments on business. Hitherto an out
standing optimist, the steel master
soberly remarked that I'VE don't
seem to be progressing. We seem to
have gone back since 1 have been
away"
Although Mr.. Schwab's statement
concerning munitions came in the
face of the proposals of Bernard M.
Baruch that the profit should be
taken out of war, the steel magnate
did not comment directly on Mr..
Baruchs testimony in Washington.

Mistake Made at start

In the first place it should be re-
membered that the predecessor Of
the Department Of Public Utilities
was The Board Of Public Works The
power Of these agencies TO protect
the citys rights has been rather a
negative one.
None Of the members Of these
creations has 5ie right to sit in on
board meetings of the Citizens Gas
Co. their power being limited 10
enforcing COntraCtural rights Of the
city and making the necessary ar
rangementS for the eventual absOTp-
ton Of the gas plant.
In view Of this II seems that a
mistake was made at the outset.
When the agreement between the
Citizens Gas Co. and the city was
contaminated in 1905 the latter con-
tracted TO take over the company
25 wears later. In order TO protect
this right it seems that the city au-
th0rities then should have insisted
on some provisions that would have
given them a voice IN the policies
Of the company.

partment Of Public Utilities 1t was

NEW YORK, Sept. "a G.N.SD.
The S. S. Hurry-On, reported to
have foundered off Cape Breton
with a loss of six lives, is a small!
boat of slight tonnage plying OUT
of Halifax.
Lloyd's register lists the Hurry
On, constructed in 1923, as Of 63a
tons, owned by the Unus Shipping
Company, Limited, of British reg
istry.
The small motor vessel went
aground in st. Francis Harbor
Guysboro county, last January
and, at that time, grave fears were
expressed for her crew, skippered
by Capt. William Cater.
On that occasion, the Hurry-On
was tossed about by high seas for
two days before icy winds abated
sufficiently for the members Of the
crew to make their way to the
mainland.
Bodies of those who perished
today were found in a lifeboat
which drifted ashore.

May Go On Relief
Charles O'Neill, spokesman for
the operators, was not so opti-
mistic. He thinks it will be
couple of days before the strike
is ended.
Meanwhile, the Federal Gov
ernment found it faces the task
of "grub-staking" 100000 per-
sons-the striking miners and
their families-if the strike is
permitted to last -or any length
of time.
Harry L. Hopkins. PWA ad-
ninistrator, assured Mr.. McGrady
today that mot a single person
will go hungry" even though the
strike of 100000 bituminouS miners
is prolonged.
Mr.. McGrady made this an
nouncement when he arrived at
the hotel where the committee is
striving to reach an agreement to
end the strike.
John L. Lewis, president OF the
United Mine workers, previously
had declared he would insist that
needy persons among the strikers
and their families be cared for out
of Federal relief funds.
This development came just
when the 1885 Mobilization Tor
Human Needs was closing its
tWo-day sessions all all ready to
start work to have private char
ity resume the burden Of caring
for the needy. And it came as

Lewis said the strike is 100 per
cent effective in the union mines
and that the entire industry is
paralyzed, He estimated there
are only about 10000 ,nonunion
miners digging soft coal today.
He doesn't care whether they join
the union walkout or not.
The railroads and other indus
tries using large amounts Of btu
minous coal are not Immediately
threatened by the shutdown.
The operators had many months
of warning, that if they failed to
negotiate a new contract the min
ers would quit, so they saw to it
that plenty of coal was mined. 1t
is estimated there is sufficient coal
now above ground to last seven
weeks, or even longer.
