wondering just how to broach the
Gear- | subject uppermost in her mind

She plunged in. “Rod, dear, your
father wants you to ask Mr. Bill-
ings’ daughter to the Festival
Dance.”
Rod looked at her unbelievingly
and then bolted upright, indignation
in every line of his lanky frame.
“What!” he exploded, *‘That

“You haven't asked anyone else
yet, have you?" his mother asked.
“N-not exactly, but I thought I'd
drag Elly. Do I have to, Mom?”
“No, son, you don’t have to, but
it would be a very friendly gesture.
After all, the Billings are fairly new
here and Anna Marie probably
hasn't made many new friends.”

tered darkly, a mental vision of the
daughter of his father’s boss in his

The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi-
neers, Brotherhood of Locomotive Fige-
men and Enginemen and the Switchmen's
Union of North America, representing
125,000 railroad employes, have refused
to accept the offer of the Railroads of a
wage increase of 154 cents an hour.
Phis is the same increase awarded
1,000,000 non-operating employes by an
arbitration board in September, 1947.
This is the same increase accepted by
175,000 conductors, trainmen and switch-
men by agreement on November 14, 1947.
Agreements have been made with
1,175,000 employes, represented by nine-
teen unions. But these three unions, rep-
resenting only 125,000 men, are trying to
get more. They are demanding also many
new working rules not embraced in the
settlement with the conductors and train-

en.
i Incidentally, the Switchmen’s Union of
fs North America represents only about 7%
§ of all railroad switchmen, the other 93%
being represented by the Brotherhood of
|! = Railroad Trainmen and covered by the
{4 * settlement with that union.
Strike Threat
A
a The leaders of these three unions spread a
"a | strike ballot while negotiations were still
| in progress. This is not a secret vote but is
taken by union leaders and votes are
signed by the employes in the presence
of union representatives.
When direct negotiations failed, the
leaders of these three unions refused to
join the railroads in asking the National
ediation Board to attempt to settle the
dispute, but the Board took jurisdiction:
at the request of the carriers and has been
earnestly attempting since November 24,
| 1947, to bring about a settlement. The
| Board on January 15, 1948, announced/
its inability to reach a mediation settle-|
| ment. The leaders of the unions rejected!
| the request of the Mediation Board to
arbitrate. The railroads accepted.

What Now?
The Unions having refused to arbitrate,
the Railway Labor Aet provides for the
appointment of a fact-finding board by
the Presidefit.
The railrgads feel it is due shippers,
passengers, employes, stockholders, and
the general public to know that through-
out these and in mediation,
they have not only exerted every effort to
reagh a fair mand reasonable settlement,
but 8hey havd also met every requirement
of Labor Act respecting the
negotiatign, mediation, and arbitration of
labor disputes.
Itseems unthinkable that these three unions,
representing less than 10 per cent of railroad
Already Accepted by 19 Other Railroad Unions!
employes, and those among the highest paid,
can successfully maintain the threat of a par-
alyzing strike against the interest of the en-
tire country—and against 90 per cent of their
fellow employes.
The threat of a strike cannot justify grant-
ing more favorable conditions to 125,000 em-
ployes than have already been put in effect
for 1,175,000, nor will it alter the opposition
of the railroads to unwarranted wage in-
creases or to changes in working rules which
are not justified.
A glance at the box shows what employes
represented by the Engineers and Firemen
make. They are among the highest paid in
the ranks of labor in the United States, if not
the highest.

Here is a comparison of
average annual e:
ings of engineers a
firemen for 1939 (pre-
war) and 1947. Also
shown is what 1947
earnings would have
been if the 15'¢ cents
per hour increase, of-
fered by the railroads
and rejected by the
union leaders, iad been
in effect througout the
entire year 1947. Yard .

Rod stepped inside and stood |
nervously waiting for Anna Marie
to come down, He looked up quickly
as a faint sound reached him. He
literally stopped breathing as he be-
held the vision of loveliness de-
scending the steps.
Her skin was as smooth and
creamy white as the petals of a
newly-opened magnolia. Her hair,
caught up in a soft cluster of curls,
.was like a sheaf of sunbeams
caught and held by the gardenias
he had sent her, under pressure
from his mother. Her blue eyes
| were like cornflowers laughing at
the dazed look on his face,
{ “Jeepers! a dream-puss, no less,”
|i Rod breathed. And then, “Ready for
| © the vatrace, beautiful?”
The black lashes flew up and a
smile curved the lovely, softly pink
| mouth.
“Natch,” was the retort and, to
herself, Anna Marie added, “Glam-
| orpuss.”
