ROADS STAND DY
LOYAL EMPLOYEES
t Tell President Harding Old and
New Men Must Be Protected
in Strike Settlement.
NOT A MATTER OF CHOICE
Faithful Employees Have Both Legal
and Moral Rights to Seniority
and Other Benefits.
New York.—The keynote of the re
ply made by railway executives repre
senting more than ISO Class I Hall
rot#ls of the United States to ttie prop
osition of President Harding, that “all
strikers lie returned to their work and
their former positions with seniority
and other rights unimpaired,” lies in
the l*ist paragraph from their reply
to the President as follows:
"It is submitted that the strik
ing former employees cannot be given
preference to employees at present In
the service without doing violence to
every principle of right and Justice
involved in this matter, and without
the grossest breach of faith on the
part of the railroads to the men at
present in their service.
"Under these circumstances, it be
comes apparent that the railroads
cannot consider any settlement of the
present strike which does not pro
vide protection in their present em
ployment both to the loyal employees
~-who remained In the service and to
the new employees entering it.”
The executives had accepted the
first two conditions proposed by the
President, namely, that both employ
ers and employees accept the decisions
of the i-abor Hoard, and that all law
suits growing out of the strike be
withdrawn; and in relation to the
third condition spoke not only as
quoted above, but also as follows:
Agree With the President
“The railroad executives and man
agers agree entirely with the Presi
dent’s statement in his letter that ‘it is
wholly unthinkable that the Railroad
Labor Board can he made a useful
agency of the Government in maintain
ing industrial peace in the railway
service unless employers and workers
are both prompt and unquestioning In
their acceptance of its decisions.’
‘‘Many men in the service refused to
join the strike and in so doing were
assured of the seniority rights accru
ing to them and of the permanence
of their positions. On some Important
lines 50 per cent or more refused to
Join the strike. To these old loyal em
ployees have been added thousands
ot new men who were employed and
could be secured only upon a definite
promise that their services would lie
retained regardless of the settlement
'ot the strike, with all the rights ap
pertaining to such employment, Includ
ing that of seniority under the working
rules and regulations previously ap
proved by the Railroad Labor Hoard.
“Just the Opposite Effect”
' “We especially point out that a re
fusal to the old men who remained in
the service nnd to the new men who
accepted service of the rights of senior
ity incident to their employment would
toave Just the opposite effect to that de
sired by tlie President, and would most
seriously discredit tlie Labor Hoard.
i ‘The board itself prescribed the
iruJee of seniority under which the men
referred to have secured their senior
ity rights, and the railroad companies
have neither the legal nor moral right
to deprive these men of those rights.
By public utterances since the strike
'organ the boat'd has recognized and
emphasized these rights, and to deny
them now would, instead of upholding
the authority of the Labor Hoard, over
throw its rules and discredit its au
thority.
“The Chairman of the Labor Hoard
at tlie time the strike was called made
i.thefallowing public statement:
'■’Vpon one question the striking em
ployees should not be deceived. Their
i leader has said that the strikers
are no longer employees of the rail
ways. and they have thus automatic
ally abandoned all the rights they
possess under their agreements and
under the decisions of the hoard, In
cluding their seniority. This is not
the board’s action. It Is their own.
“Many carriers are giving their for
mer employees the opportunity to re
enter the service within a limited
time. It must be understood now
• that men who remained in the serv
ice and those who are now entering
It will have rights of seniority that
i the board could not Ignore."
What the Proposed Plan Mean*
“It must be undcr> rood that any pro
posal that employees now on strike
shall be permitted to return to the
service, without Impairment to their
seniority, is merely another way of
suggesting that those men who took
employment in this -rials in good faith,
relying on the promises of the rail
roads to protect them in their posi
tions, these promises being justified by
the authoritative utterances of the
Labor Hoard, and thus have made pos
sible the continued operation of the
railroads, shall now lie sacrificed in
favor of men now on strike, who not
only brought about the crisis, but, by
their own action and declaration, are
no longer employees of the railways,
under tlie jurisdiction of the United
States Railroad Labor Hoard, or sub
ject to the application of tlie Trans
portation act.
“In addition to the necessity of up
holding tlie Labor Hoard, and main
taining the pledges made by the rail
roads to the men now at work, there
Is the practical effect on the super
visory officers of a violation of the
pledges they were authorized to make.
Their discouragement and demorallza
tton wouid ie far more disastrous than

How The Master Driver
Became Master Tire Builder
IN 1903, driving the “999” racing
car, Barney Oldfield started his
career of victories that later
earned him the title of “Master
Driver of The World.” To over
come the tire weaknesses that made
racing difficult and dangerous, he
studied tires —specified materials—
supervised construction.
Today, Barney Oldfield is known
as the “Master Tire Builder.”
Starting with the crude tires which
carried the “999” one mile in sixty
seconds, Oldfield gradually de
veloped his famous Cords —a set of
which covered 500 miles at eighty
eight miles an hour without a
change.
In three years Oldfield tires have
won every important race on Amer
ican speedways. They are the only
