PHILADELPHIA, Pa, September 20.—Officials of the Pennsylvania railroad expressed pleasure that the irailroad had been granted a rehear- ing by the United States Rallroad Labor Board on certain points of the board's decision concerning that com- pany, as announced yesterday. In'a formal statement President Samuel Rea said: | “The Pennsylvania railroad in this| situation is seeking one fundamental i object, and one alone—the right to deal with its own employes without inter- ference by those having interests to promote other than those of the em- ployes of the Pennsylvania railroad and the service of this company to the public. “The Penmsylvania railroad s mak- inis no fight against organized labor. On the contrary, it has made it clear that it will deal, and it is in fact actually dealing, with a large number of members of labor organizations who have been selected by the employes to represent them in their collective rela- tionship with the management. + “The Pennsylvania railroad should have the co-operation of the Rallroad Labor Board in its effort to establish harmonious and helpful workins ar- rangements between itself and its employes.
