We clean, re-core and rebuild any make or type of radiator. t h f I. k a d i :RS of three railroad unions, rep resenting less than one-tenth of all railroad employees, have railed a railroad strike that would paralyze the nation. These leaders refuse to accept a 1 5 ' 2 cents an hour wage increase retroactive to Novem ber 1. 1947. This increase was recommended by an impartial Emergency Board appointed by President Truman. This increase of 151 2 cents already has been accepted by the 19 other railroad unions. But the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen, and the Switchmen’s Union of North America won’t accept what more than 90% of all railroad employes have accepted. They have called a strike to get more! W e clean and repair £as tanks. ALL W O R K G U AR ANTEED We Also Weld any metal that molts— arc, pas and portable equipment.

Portland , Oregon 1115 5 5 Certain rules changes demanded hv these union leaders— which would increase wages still further — were recommended by the Board. Hut the union leaders uant more— they demand that the railroads put into effect A l.i. the changes they asked for. including those the Board felt should be dented. On top of this, they insist that certain rules changes proposed by the railroads be with drawn— in spite of the fact that the Board recommended them! These union leaders have refused to negotiate except upon these arbitrary terms. after hearing evidence for 33 days, made recommendations based on all the facts in the case. The railroads have accepted these recommendations. Who's to blame? Although they deplored so large an extra cost burden, the railroads accepted the report of the Board because they felt it was in the pub lic interest to uphold the spirit and intent of the Railway Labor Act. How long will the American public stand for the undemocratic, arbitrary, and abusive use of the right to strike and the disregard of the obligation to provide transportation? H°W long can the American people permit a few dictatorial union leaders to defy the processes provided for peaceful settlement of disputes? Force seldom produces settlements that are either fair or lasting. Moreover, a point is often reached when personal interests must he held subordinale to the greater public welfare. That is why the railroads have ac cepted the Emergency Board recommenda tions. That is also why the leaders of these three unions should reconsider their derision to call a paralyzing strike.
