These demands are vastly larger in proportion than any they have ever made. The economical and efficient operation of the railways is vital to the nation's defense effort. Therefore, the Western Railways pre sent to the public the following facts: The labor unions representing engineers, fire men, conductors, brakemen and switchmen are demanding a 30 per cent increase in wages, amounting to 190 million dollars a year although their present rates of pay are the highest in history. Other unions representing a greater number of railway employees are demanding wage increases ranging as high as 95 per cent averaging 47 per cent and amounting to 580 million dollars a year although their present rates of pay also are the highest in history. Thus the wage increases being demanded by the labor unions amount to 770 million dollars a year, an average increase in excess of 4i pei cent. In addition, certain of these labor unions have demanded advances in their pay not included in the above figures, and more rules for the creation of unnecessary jobs. The situation, then, is this: The total cost of complying with all the demands made would be approximately 900 million dollars a year! The average weekly earnings of railwqy employees are now 15 per cent higher than in the peak year 1929, while the cost of living is 12 per cent less. The demands of the railway labor unions are being made when the entire nation has just been asked to make a supreme effort for National Defense. The railways cannot meet these demands without a great increase in the cost of transportation. They exceed by more than 700 million dollars the income that the railways had left after paying their annual expenses, taxes and charges in 1940. The railways have a vitally important ob before them. They need all rtieir resources to continue adequately to serve you and contribute effectively toward the Nationaj Defense Program. THE WESTERN RAILWAYS Union Station, Chicago, III.
