ROADS’ PLIGHT IS RESULT OF INEFFICIENCY Consulting Economist for Labor Upholds National Agreement as Beneficial. RAIL BOARD WITNESS CHICAGO. March 29.—Inefficiency of railroad management rather than the national agreements fixing wages and working conditions of employes is responsible for the financial plight of the railroads. W. Jett Lauek, consulting economist of the railroad labor organizations, declared in a statement to the United States Railway Board today. Lauek today began the presentation of labor exhibits before the board. The root of the railroad difficulty,” ■Lauek declared, .“is not in national agreer meats, but in the inadequacies of manConservatively stated, if railroad management was characterized by ressonabie efficiency and had available for its nse a proper amount of credit A capital, labor costs would have shown decline under national agreements and savings in operating expenses ■gw at least $1,000,000,000 annually would n^Bßde." Brack outlined his points which he declared upheld the soundness of the policies represented by the national agreements. First, he declared, the policy of establishing national agreements or nniform rates of pay and working conditions, is in conformity with custom and precedent In the transportation industry and in accordance with best public policies. Second, Lauek asserted, collective bargaining on a national scale and national agreements as to working conditions and relations have been found to be the best meam of stabilizing conditions in other basic industries of the country. “In Great Britain, Lauck’s third point declared, these facts have become so clearly recognized that national agreements are encouraged by both employers and employes and an effort is being made to make tuem compulsory in all industries. When the railroad administration entered into the national agreements, Lauek asserted, as bis fourth contention, it merely recognized a tendency which had reached complete development during the war and which was sanctioned by enlightened opinion both within and without the transportation industry. Fifth, Lauek pointed out, representatives of the railroads have practically given their sanction to national rates of pay and working conditions of engine and train crews. These classes, he declared, have uniform rates of pay and working conditions embodied in agreements on individual roads but underwritten by the national organizations and concurred in by the railroads on a national basis. Railroads, Lauek charged in his sixth contention, are “consciously and deliberately taking advantage of a temporary industrial depression to destroy human standards sanctioned by thought and practices of the leading Industrial nations of the world.” Union Movement to Lower Wages Special to The Times. MARION, Ind.. March 29—Marion bricklayers have started the ball rolling in what is believed to be the first “strike” taward the voluntary lowering of wages by workers here since the close of the war. At a meeting of the Bricklayers’ Union No. 12 last week it was decided to make a reduction from $1.25 an hour to $1 an hour to become effective May 1. Announcement of this wage cut was made by J. M. Wilson, secretary of the arbitration committee, together with a plea for others to join in the movement. This reduction means that the wages of bricklayers will drop from $55 to $44 a week of forty-four hours, or a cut of sll.
