Union leaders representing less than one-tenth of railroad employes

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!

In contrast, this small group of railroad

intent and spit it of the Railway Labor Act,

They have dictated a paralyzing railroad

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.
Compare these wages with what you make!
