LEE SAYS TRAINMEN RELUCTANT TO TAKE STRIKE MEASURES

CLEVELAND, O., Oct. 18 President W. G. Lee. of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, today issued a statement in which he asserted that "the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen very reluctantly takes the position that it cannot longer agree to give service unless there is assurance that there will be no further wage reductions nor attempt to eliminate working rules that have been secured through many years of collective bar

gaining and which represent only fair

remuneration for extra service given. After discussing the wages of train

men in which he made comparison of wages paid in 1913 with those received now. Mr. Lee said: "The men have

heen asked to accept what is an In

adequate living wage. They know the railways are takJng'nnfair advantage of business depression to force them

to accept unfair wages and service conditions. To state the matter briefly they believe that the companies are going to continue their aggressive warfare against them until they force the men to strike. Therefore they must reluctantly decide to accept the challenge now." Mr. Lee's statement in part follows: "The wages of train and yard service employes were fixed in 1913, and were not changed, except in a very few minor instances, until Jan. 1, 1916. Time and one-half for overtime was not allowed yard employes until April 10, 1916. and for road employes until Dec. 1. 1913. The award of the United States railroad labor board which fixed wases at the peak became effective May 1, 1920, while the wage reduction on which the present controversy hinges, became effective July 1, 1921, The further demands for elimination of time and one-half for overtime, rules allowing extra pay for

extra services performed, and for

further wage reductions were made following the award effective July 1, 1921. "From 1913, through the period in which this country became commer

cially interested in the European war, until January 1, 1918, transportation employes did not receive any advance

in their daily monthly wages. The

enactment af the Adarason law, which was declared constitutional March 19, 1917, did not increase the daily wage of the employes effected.

NATIONS WILL FOLLOW AMERICA'S EXAMPLE ON ARMS SAYS OLIVER John W. Oliver, of Indianapolis, director of the State Historical commission, speaking before the Woman's rinh Tuesdav afternoon in the art

gallery of the high school on "The National Defense and Disarmament", emphasized the fact that the other nations of the world are looking to the action taken by the United States as an example for them to follow. "The coming conference is not for the purpose of disarming but for the purpose of limiting the armament of the nations of the world. If the vast armament programs now being carried out are not checked it will not be long until our country and every country in the world will perish," Mr. Oliver st Sited. Mr. Oliver quoted Secretary Treasurer Huston to the effect that the

United States government has spent)

since the tirst administration oi George Washington, $68,000,000,000 on government purposes. Of that 68 billions, 58 have been for armament purposes. It is hoped, Mr. Oliver said, that a certain amount, considerably less than is being spent now, will be fixed by the arms congress for the armament purposes. Mr. Oliver also spoke before the Rotary club at its regular meeting Tuesday noon. NIGHT SCHOOL CLASS GETS ENROLLMENTS

MUSIC DEPARTMENT OF WOMAN'S SOCIETY

PRESENTS PROGRAM

Featured by a program of autumn music, which demonstrated the wealth of exceptional musical talent which abounds in the city, the music department of the Woman's club opened its season of programs in the public art gallery Tuesday morning. Music, poetry and art were combined in creating the invigorating, brilliant spirit characteristic of late fall.

Against the colorful background form-

the employes which they bitterly re-'ed by the paintings which hang in the

tent is the disposition of the rail- f permanent collection or the ganery. roads to take away from them all of; white cathedral candles gleamed the advantages that were secured through boughs of vivid colored leaves, through several years of collective forming a lovely setting for the prebargaining. By agreement with the I sentation of the program, and lending

railroads special allowances were provided for special service. "It is now the purpose of the railways to act for the elimination of time and one half for overtime ana there Is no intimation that they propose to restore what allowances were sacrificed when time and one half was established.' "Regardless of popular opinions to the efect that all employes are worked on the eight hour basis in transportation service, the fact Is that there is no eight hour day in train service

except as a basis for fixing a normal day's work. Trainmen both freight and pasenger do not go into overtime until they have used up the time allowance on the milage of the run."

SHIP CARRIES DOWN WRANGEL'S FORTUNE CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. 18. General Baron Wrangel's entire personal fortune; his wife's jewels, valued at 40.000 francs and important documents

of the Crimean government were lost

on Saturday when the. yacht Lucullus

on which the head of the former anti-Bolsheviki government in South Russia lived, was sunk by a British

steamer Adria. In addition there were lost valued mememtos presented General Wrangle by the late Emporer Nicholas. Investigation has proved the accident was due to a swift current, and the inability of a pilot to control the Adria. The Lucullus rests in 70 feet of water, and it is believed divers may be able to recover part of the treasure. Russians here advance the theory that the sinking of the boat was the result of a plot by the bolshevik.

They charge the pilot was bribed, but

this accusation is not supported in orther circles.

manage to get to the convention in some manner." "We risked more than inconvenience to reach objectives in 1918." wrote a New Jersey post commander. "Nothing can keep us from our convention now."
