jurious report" by thj emergency
board since enactment of the rail
way labor law.
F. H. Nemitz, chief of the con
ductors, and W. P. Kennedy, head
of the trainmen, said their unions
"ere "ready to use economic
strength, if necessary, to force a
fair settlement of the issues."
The presidential board April 19
recommended to President Tru
nr ... that the switchmen be
awarded a 40-hour week and an 18
cents an hour wage hike. The
switchmen want a 40-hour week
with the pay they now get for a
49-hour week.
The fact-finders on June 15 spe
cifically did not recommend a
boost for the trainmen and con
ductors when they recommended a
40-hour week and 18-cents an hour
to 75,000 yard employes.
The 125,000 members of the
Trainmen's and Conductors union
also wanted sliding scales of pay
rates depending on weight of loco
motives and a reduction of the
basic day from the present 150
miles or 7V4 hours to 100 miles or
five hours.
The trainmen and conductors did
not actually set a strike date. They
will meet in Chicago July 10. Fu
ture action will be mapped then.
Arthur J. Glover, president of
the switchmen, said his group
represents 25,000 workers. The
carriers said that the trainmen
and conductors' union represented
95 percent of the nation's railroad
switchmen.

OKAYAMA, Japan (PI Dead

Sanitation officials paid freely
until a fish peddler showed up
with 18.000 dead flies, worth 1,800
yen (about 55) bounty.
They cut the bounty in half and
another fishmonger showed up
with 35,000 dead flies. He, too, col
lected aboua a $5 bounty.
Then sanitation officials inves
tigated. They found the fishmong
ers were hatching flies in rotting,
unsold fish in their back yards.
Each made more from flies than
fish.
