RAILROAD'
WAGES '
Shall they be determined by
Industrial Warfare or
Federal Inquiry ?
To the American Public:
Do you believe in arbitration or indus
trial warfare?
The train employes on all the railroads
are voting whether they will give their leaders
authority to tie up the commerce of the
country to enforce their demands for a 100
million dollar wage increase.
The railroads are in the public service
. your service. This army of employes is in
the public service your service. ' "
You pay for rail transportation 3 billion
dollars a year, and 44 cents out of every
dollar from you goes to the employes.
On all the Western railroads in 1915, seventy-five per cent of the
train employes earned these wages (lowest, highest and average
of all) u shown by the pay rolls

Cn j 187. IMS 1355
Fa..,. . J 1317 1181 973
U . 987 1135 Jg 1107
The average yearly wage payments to all Western train em
ployes (including those who worked only part of the year) at
shown by the 1915 payrolls were
Pauenge Freight Yard
EBiineert $2038 $1737 $1218
Conductors 1772 1624 1292
Firemei 1218 973 832
Braltemea 921 1000 1026
A 100 million dollar wage increase for
men in freight and yard service (less than
one-fifth of all employes) is equal to a 5 per
cent advance in all freight rates.
The managers of the railroads, as trustees
for the public, have no right to place this
burden on the cost of transportation to you
without a clear mandate from a public tri
bunal speaking for you.
The railroads have proposed the settle
ment of this controversy either under the
existing national arbitration law, or by refer
ence to the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion. This offer has been refu'sed by the
employes' representatives.
Shall a nation-wide strike or an
investigation under the Gov
ernment determine this issue?

APE YOU INSURED
Yes, that is a very burning ques
tion sometimes! It you are not fully
protected by insurance against fire,
NOW Is the time to attend to It.
Don't put off until tomorrow what
can be done today. "How about that
home, merchandise, automobile, etc.?
Did you ever stop to think just
how little it will cost you to carry
your Insurance compared to the ben
efits which you receive? A few dol
lars invested today may save you a
thousand tonight.
