WAGE INCREASE IS
OPPOSED BY WILSON
WASHINGTON, Au. 26. Increivacd wuk'cs will remilt In furlhrr
lnrronnes 111 eowt of production and the coat of living, T'rcaldent Vvilsun
aahl In a letter addressed to the country on the subject of the demands
of railroad Hhnpmen.
The president alao said that aiv auch aubatanllal Inereuse of wages
In leading llnea of Industry at thlB time would crush the general cam
paign the government ia waging to reduce the coet of living.
The Increase in the coat of transportation which would necessar
ily result from increases in the wages of railway employes would more
certainly and more Immediately have that effect than any other ad
vanced wage cost," the president said.
He said It is neither wise nor feasible to take care of increases in
the wages of railroad employes ut thla time by increases in freight
rates.
Tho president's statement followed a conference with a hundred
representatives of the railroad shopmen's union, who are demanding
un Increase In wages.
"We ought to postpone questions of this sort until normal condi
tions come aguin und we have tile opportunity for certain calculation
as to the relations between wages and the cost of living,'' stid the
president.
"It Is the duty of every citizen of the country to Insist upon a truce
in auch contests until intelligent settlement can be made by peaceful
and effective counsel.
"! appeal to my fellow cltlaena of every employment to cooperate
In insisting upon and maintaining such a truce, and to cooperate also
In sustaining the government In what. I conceive to he the only course
which a coaclentious public service can pursue. Demands unwisely
