Representativee of the road denied both. : The case t suited from an order effective February 1, reducing common la bor wages and deducting one day's pay a week. from the salar ies of all employes paid on monthly basis. Most of the arguments centered about whether a ruling" ot the I board February 12. ordering the road to make no changein wage rates was compulsory on the road. which had put a reduction into effect. It was conceded by the rail re presenta tires that the In tent ot the order was to matntain the rates of the wage award of July. They denied, howerer. vio lation of the law fn changing those rates. Business depression and revenues below operating ex penses were given as a reason for ! the reduction order. R. S. Parsons. ; general mana ger for the road, asked wnetner the road's positions meant it ; would not obey the board's orders, replied: 1 "We can't do It. we want to do everything possible to get alone with the board but I dont know what we would do it tne board issued Impossible orders.' Samuel Adams, attorney for tne road, denied the -power of the i besrd to continue the rates of Its decision ot July until a bearing had been held and a decision reached.
