This would be an average in crease of 31 cents an hour, or $2 .48 a day. So Union leaders have called a completely unjustified strike on 5 Western rail- roods, effective June 2 5 . On June 15, an Emergency Board ap pointed by President Truman under the terms of the Railway Labor Act recom mended the railroads grant switchmen a 40-hour week find a wage increase of 18 cents an hour, or 31.44 for an 8-hour day. Despite the added financial burden in volved, the railroads are ready to accept these recommendations, as they have al ways accepted Emergency* Board recom mendations on national issues. But the leaders of the Switchmen’s Union refuse to accept!

Here is another case of a railroad union flouting the findings o f an Emergency Board—another case of calling a crippling strike in. an outrageous and reckless at tempt to force demands which the Board clearly labels as unjustified! Leaders of the Switchmen’s Union are calling this strike in defiance of the Board —in defiance of the facts—And at the ex pense of the public!
