~ JUDGE'S REMARKS
(Continued from Page 1)
lowing questions and then see what
you think of the proposition laid
down by our learned Judge when he
classed us as undesirable citizens be
cause we demanded a square deal.
Have the passenger rates been re
duced 34 per cent?
Have the frieght rates been reduc
ed 34 per cent?
Has the high salaries of railroad
officials been reduced 34 per cent?
Has the price of rent been reduced
34 per cent
Have the taxes been reduced 34
per cent?.
Has the street icar fare been re
duced 34 per cent?
+ Has flour been reduced 34 per
cent?
Has your gas been reduced 34 per
cent?
Have you ever read a decision that
the salary of the Labor Board has
been reduced to 34 per cent? They
only receive $10,000.00 each year,
$32.00 per day, or $6.00 per hour
and the railroad employees helps pay
this board that cuts the wages of one
class om employees to 28 cents per
hour.
We ask in all fairness would you
Mr. Citizen, work when you didn’t
receive a living wage? And you were
the victim of a board that cut your
salary 34 per cent in twelve months
and then continued to cut your salary
and let. the other fellow bask in the
sunshine of good wages and prosper
ity. All that we want is a square
deal and there is not a railroad work
er in all our United States that has
not stood his part of our present de
pression, without complaint. They
have stood reduction after reduction,
thinking surely there would be a cer |
responding cut in the wages of other
classes of workmen, a reduction in
freight rates and other items men
tioned above. And we feel that if the
railroads are not forced to respect
the ruling of the Labor Board that
we should not be classed as outlaws
for trying to force a square deal in
our case. Can you blame the shop
crafts for refusing to accept decis
ions that are so unfair and unjust?
It is true that they have accepted
decision after decision that was un
just. Have the railroads done this?
No. Eighty two railroads accepted
only decisions that suited them and
you have never read of these rail
roads as outlaws. We respectfully
refer the public to the case of the A.
B. & A. railroad and sak how many
decisions of the Labor Board were
accepted by the officials of that road
before it went into the hands of a
receiver. We have not tried to sit
as jurors on our own case and the
only thing that we wanted was a fair
and impartial trial of our case that
is given to every American whether
he be rich or poor, and when we did
n’t receive that we did the only thing
that we could do—Walk out. God
knows that it is trying on red blooded
Amerigans to be insulted and wrong
fully accused as we have been but
we still respect the majesty of the
law and we are doing our part to
wards pretecting the lives and prop
erty of our fellowmen and are doing
our part as good citizens under the
most trying circumstances and unjust
suspicions. For every time a crime
is committee some one hurls the
charge at us, and not once has the
proof been produced that we have
done the things that we were accused
of. We stand now ready to retarn
to our work when we receive the
square deal that we are entitled to,
and this labor board sees fit to give
us a living wage, Just a few days
ago when this strike was nearly set
tled through the efforts of the Presi
dent, was it the shopmen that made
it impossible, or the railroads still
trying to not force us back to work
and then take our seniority away
from us and give it to those who were
not entitled to it. Mr. Citizen, is
that fair?
In conclusion, we went on a strike
because the rate of pay of the labor
board was not based on the human
needs of the hundreds of thousands
of families involved and we have
done everything possible and in hu
man power to avert it. They were
absolutely insufficient to provide
these families with absolute essen
tials.
We are not outlaws and are just
as good citizens as Judge Blair, or
anyone else, and we have done just
as much in our limited way to help
our town and community as our
learned Judge and we trust that some
day that he will reailze the mistake
of the Labor Board is that it has been
persuaded to reduce labor cost, on a
theory that the cost of living would
then fall to the wage level; instead
of performing its duty to help main
tain wages on the level of the actual
cost of living. The Board has been
made the instrument of organized
money powdr, refresented by the
twenty-five inter-locking bank and
railroad directors, the General Staff
of the American Junkers—who have
been campaigning since the war to
“put labor in its place”, is still plain
er language, to establish a system
of industrial feudlism which was rap
idly developing in the United States
before the war. Only a small group
of less than 50,000, out of one hund
red million people will profit by the
reduction of wages and the reduc
tion of labor's purchaising power.
The wholesale and retail merchant,
the small manufacturer and the busi
mess man in every line and most of
all the farmers will suffer in a time
of cheap labor and limited purchas
ing power. Only the tiny group of
large investors will profit. And for
their profit millions of wage earners
and their families will be denied that
health and comfort which the great
natural resources and oppertunities
of America should insure to them. If
the transportation werkers can be
beaten down, tlassed as outlaws and
undesirable citizens by Judges and
the Press and forced to accept in
sufficient wages, what workers will be
able to resist the tyranny. What
’class will be next? The strike of the
shop crafts marks the same crisis in
the struggle bewteen money, power
and man power and the money-power
knows that is must win to hold its
power. The shopmen know that they
must win not only for themselves and
their families, but for the benefit of
all those who live by labor, whether
on the railroad, in the factories, or
on the farm.

The Private’s Dilemma
I’d like to be a corpril with the cor
~ pril’s stand,
A ehevron on my coat sleeve and a
~ warrant in my hand,
But when I think it over all my hope
~ to gloom descends,
I'd like to be a corporal—but I’d
rather have my friends!
The private marches dumbly—this
~ way, that way, what’s the odds?
While the corpril joins the shouting
when the order’s ‘right-by-squads!
But when the drill is over then the
corpril’s glory ends.
Oh, I'd like to be a corpril—but I'd
rather have my friends.
The extra pay comes handy and the
chevron makes one proud,
But it’s tough to be a non-com when
~_your heart is with the crowd,
They persecute the budies with com
mands the captain sends,
Yes, I'd like to be a corpril—but I'd
~ rather have my friends.
