TIME AND HALF GUT FROM RAILWAY PAY, Extra Work Wage Will Be Pro Rated, Labor Board Decides Temporarily. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, June 29.—Railway em- Ployes will be paid for all overtime work in excess of eight hours daily at the pro rata rate, instead of re- ceiving time and one-half, under a temporary dscision of the Railroad Labor Board. The order, effective July 1, applies to all employes except those who have reached agreements with the rouds payment for overtime or Iy in the south, who were time and on-half after eight hours before federal controk. The ruling was made pending set- tlement of numerous disputes before the board. and if it is later decided that the punitive rate for overtime is! Justified the roads will be directed to pay back to employes the amount to be deducted after Jule 1. Continues U. S. Rules. ‘The decision also provided for thel continuation “of the ruley established by or under the s i the United State inistra- tion until suc ed upon | by the board.” with the further ex-| ception of rules agreed on at ind vidual conferences, which are to be- come effoctive July 1. By its order of April 14, which in effect abrogated the national agree- ments, the railways were given until July 1 to draw up separate agree- ments on each road. In case of dis- agreement over any rules the dispute | was ordered remanded to the bpard for settlement. The flood of disag¥ee- ments which has pourcd into the board and the delay in hearing them brought up the prospect that many -roads would be withput working agreements after July 1. The old rules were, therefore, continued tem- porarily. Class Agreement Upheld. No separate Agreement on wages or working conditions can be made by any group of railroad employes in @ particular office or shop, apart from the agreement made with that ‘class of employes as a whole over the en- tire system, according to a ruling of Abe Martin Says: Mail Carrier Joe Mopps has resigned, as th” spring-crop o’ tire literature wuz underminin’ his health. . Lafe Bud reports havin’ suc- cessfully reasoned with his wlfp, but little credence is given his story. (Copyright WILL ASSURE DOMINICANS OF FAIR TREATMENT ional Newspuper Service.) U. S.

Because of the apparent misunder- standing in San Domingo regarding the plans of tre United States gov- ernment for the withdrawal of its military forces from that country, the United States minister to the Domin- ican Republic has been instructed to reassure the Dominicans that the United States means to deal honorably with them. the railroad labor board today.

PENNSY IN AGREEMENT. Representatives of Employes Con- form to “Regulations.” HIA, June —The Ivania railroad announced that it had notified the United States La- bor Board of an agreement reached between the company and the repre- the negotiation of the convention and that their representatives will be named by the Dominican congress as soon as it is elected. Ratification of the acts of m government, provided for in recent proclamation, was explained a measure to insure primarily recog- nition by the newly constituted gov- ernment of the validity of the finan- cial obligations incurred by the military government. 1t was pointed out that this stipula- tion sbould not be construed as meaning that the United States in- sists upon the approval by the Dominican government of every ex- ecutive order issued by the military government. Extension of the powers of the gener: rece r of customs to the collection of internal revenues in case the executive revenues are insufficient to mcet the requirement of the serv- ice of the public debt, it was added, was merely further guarantee for the proper security of the final loan of two and one-half million dollars.” ADMIRAL BENSON HEADS COUNCIL OF CATHOLIC MEN sentatives of its employes in en- i gt L st-rvllrc o e Newly Organized District Chapter Ijtions and working conditions af- Elects Officers at Meet- dcting these classes of employes.
