Federal Inquiry or
Railroad Strike?
Faced by demands frofn the conductors, engineers, firemen and brakemen
that would impose on the country an additional burden in trampontation costs of
$100,000,000 a year, the railroads propose that this wage problem be settled by
reference to an impartial Federal tribunal.
With these employes, whose efficient service is acknowledged, the railroads
have no differences that could not be considered fairly and decided justly by such
a public body. ‘ 1
Railroads Urge Public Inquiry and Arbitration
The formal proposal of the railroads to the employes for the settlement of
the cbntroversy is as follows:
1. Preferably by submission la th
accumulated information bearing
“Our conferencea have demonitrated that we cannot harmonize our dilfereacei of opinion and that eventually tha
matter* in controversy mutt be pasted upon by other and diiintereeted agencies. Therefore, we propose that your
proposals and tha proposition ol the railway* be diipoied of by one or the other of the following methods:
the Interstate Commerce Commission, the only tribunal which, by reason of ita
_ on railway condition* and in control of tha revenue of the railway*, it in a posi-
tion to consider and protect th*~right* and equities of all tha interest* affected, and to provide additional rtvenua
necessary to meet the added cost oT operation id case your proposals are found by the Commission to be ju»t and
reasonable; or, in the event the Interstate Commerce Commission cannot, under existing law*, act in the premise*,
that we jointly requeit Congress to take such action a* may be accessary to anablo tha Commission to consider and
promptly dispose.of the questions involved; or
I. By arbitration in accordance with tho provisions of tho Federal law" (Tha Ncwiaads Act).
Leaders Refuse Offer and Take Strike Vote
Leaden of the train service brotherhoodi. at the joint conference held in New
York, June 1*15, refused the* offer of the railroads to submit the issue to arbitration
wantpoNaaon art now largely fixed by this Govern-
ment beard.
Out of every dnllar received by the
the public nearly one-half it paid directly to
railroad* from
the
The Interstate Commerce Commission, with its con-
trol ovtr ratot, it in a position to make • complete
investigation and render such decision at wq,uld pro-
tect the ititeroett of tho railroad omployet, tha ownam
of tha railroads, tad the public.
A Question For the Public to Decide
The railroads feel that they have no right to grant a wage preferment of
$100,000,000 a year to these employes, now highly paid and constituting only
•no*nfth of all the employes, without a clear mandate from a public tribunal that
•hall determine the merits of the case after a review of all the facts.
The sing It issue before the country is whether this controversy is to be settled by an
Impartial Government inquiry or by industrial warfare.
