"The increases in. the cost of tran& nortation which. would necessarily result from increases of ' railway employes would more certainly and more imme-. dfntely hac thall effect than any other advanced wage cost, ' ' the president aid. , - ' ' ',', . He said it is neither wise nor feasible to tako care of incrcasos in the wages of Tailrocd employes at this time-by in creases in freight rates. ' - The president's statement followed a again and we h&ve the opprtunity for certain calculation as to the relations, between wages and the cost of living," said the president. r '..,. I "It is the duty of ovory citizen of the country to insist upon a truce in such contests until intelligent settlement can be made by peaceful and effective com mon counsel. "I. appeal to my fellow citizens of ev ery employment to co-operate in insist ing upon and maintaining such a truce, and to co operate also in sustaining the government fa what I conceive , to be the only course which a conscientious public service can pursue., Demands un wisely made and passionately insisted upon at this time menace the pea-ce and prosperity of this country as nothing else could and thus contributes to bring about the results which demands are in tended to remedy. , , The president at tho same timo ninde conference with .a hundred representa tives of the railroad shopmen's unions' publie a statement addressed to tho rail who are demanding an -increase ini way.- employe'- department of . the wages.

In this letter the president says: "We are face to faco with a situation which is more likely to atfect the hap piness and prospurity aiul even the lite of our people than tho war itself. " We have now got to do nothing less than bring our industries and our la bor of every, kind back to a normal basis after the .greatest upheaval know n to iistor yand the winter just ahead ot us may bring suffering infinitely great er than the. war. brought upon us if we blunder or fail in the process.

Tho president also explained how tho government hopes- to cna proiuecnng, stimulate production and lower prices. Ho said "very -favorable results are al ready, beginning to appear:""-? ' The. president's letter addressed to '.'My fellow citizens,'! is-ns follows: ,. '.'The situation has arisen ,in connccr tion wfth the administration of the'rail wavs which if of such general signifi- ca ice that I think it my duty to make a public .statement concerning it, in or der that the wlioio country may juu what is involved. : "The railroad shopmen have demand ed a largo increase in wageSi. 'They are now receiving 58, 63 and- 68 centB per hour.. They demand 85 cents per hour. Ti.ia iimnniiH has been eriven careful and serious consideration by the board which was constituted by the railroad admin istration to adjust questions of wages, and the board consisting of an equal uumbcr of representatives of employes and of tho operating managers of the railroad companies. This board has 'been unable to come to an agreement and i has, therefore, devolved on the director general of railroads and myself . to act upon the merits of the case. TOe showmen uree-that they be en titled to higher wageB because of the higher wages for the present received by men doing similar work in ship yard, navy yards and arsenals, as well as in a number ot private mausirics, but, I concur with the director general in thinking that there is no real basis of comparison betweed the gettiea em ployment afforded mechanics by , the railroads under living conditions as yar ioiis as the locations in surroundings of the railway shops themselves and the fluctuating employment ' afforded in industries, exceptionally and tempo rarily stimulated by the war and lo cated almost without exception in in dustrial centers where the cost , of liv ing is highest. "The subsantial argument which the shopmen urge, is the very serious increase, in tne cosi oi jiving. "1D a very potent argument, indeed. But the fact is that the cost of living haB certainly reached its peak and will probably 'be lowered by the efforts which are now everywhere being con certed! and tarried out. It will certain ly be lowered' so soon as there are set tled conditions of production -and cQm-. mereo: that iff so soon as the treay oi peace is ratified and in operation- and merchants manufacturers, flarmers, finors all "have a certain basis of cal culation as to what their business will be and what the conditions will be un der which it must be conducted. The demands of the shopman,- therefore, and all similar 'demands are in effect this:- ,. ,,.

Any substantial increase of waxes in lead in? lines of industry at this time will utterjy rush the general (campaign which the government is waging with energy, vigor and substantial hopo of success to reduce the cost of living. And the increases in the cost of trans portation which would necessarily re sult from increases in the wages of rail way employes would moro certainly and more Immediately have that effect than any other enhanced wage costs.
