Washington, Sept. 10.-;F)-Mcat

Even the army, the worlds big

The new butcher shop prices aver

30 when meat began its 7l-day pc
Rod in The free ma-Eci. They are
lower than most re- ent prices. but
the ceilings are meaningless in many
communities because counters are
bare.
How long the shortage will last

OPA and Agriculture Department
experts but among army food buy

One remedy being discussed is a

New Data Needed.
Ono thing that could make the
task easier for the Wage Stabiliza-

Government officials close to the
situation take the view that if i'm
portant new facts were presented,
the board might be able TO reverse
ITS ruling without wreCking its pri--
lge or revamping the whole policy
OF wage and price control.
An official said that in such case,
the board might announce in cf-
feet:
New data about the agreements
between ship operators and AFL
seamcn, not gwen to us befor>
shows that we can properly approve
higher wage increases without violat
ing the present policy. The mari
time industry, where the govern
ment owns most of the ships, is an
unusual and vital industry and this
vltation for higher wages i'll other

dence' solution, however, is ~.

1S Rail Unions Agree
With Employers 10
Arbitrate Pay Dispute
Troinmen to Continue
Strike Vote, However,
Whitney Declares
BY the Associated Press,


CHICAGO Jan. 26.-Ofhcials
of 18 rail unions representing L.
250,O00 workers and the Ma
tion's major railroads agreed to-
day to submit union wage de-
mands to arbitration.
In Cleveland, however, A. F. Whit
ney, president of the Brotherhood
of Railroad Trainmen, one of two
unions which walked out OF medi-
alton conferences here last week,
said today the agreement would not
alter his unions plan to conduct a
strike vote.
Mr.. Whitney and Alvanley john
ston, president of the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers, left the
hearing, both asserting that the me-
diation boards proposal was limited
to the wage question and would not
include changes in working rules.
Rule Request Ignored.
They undertook to ignore our
request on rules changes, and the
railroads did the same" Mr.. Whit
ney said.
The brotherhood chief said strike
ballots had been mailed to about
2l5,0O0 brakemen, flagmen, dining
car stewards, yardmasters, switch
tenders and about two-thirds of
the conductors" represented by his
union. He estimated three weeks
would be required to complete the
balloting.
The engineers have arranged to
meet next month to consider taking
a strike vote.
The agreement signed today en-
braces approximately IS per cent of
the nations rail employees and 1874
railroads. Management representa-
tlves said they were willing to enter
similar agreement with the other
two unions representing the other
Is per cent.
Two Mediation Boards.
Under the agreement, two arbitra-
ton boards will be set up. One of
six members will function in the
case of the Is incorporating bro

about the agreement, said this was

that the Blair and Decatur Houses,

The boards resolution was further

that the plan for taking over the
old State Department building as an
executive Office building be revived.
