CHICAGO, March 10.—Charges of hidden power in railroad labor organ- izations and counter charges of In- fluencing public opinion by propa- ganda enlivened a day’s presentation of statistics by eastern railroads in the wage hearings before the Federal Railroad Labor Board. John G. Walber, appearing for the ‘eastern roads, offered data in sup- port of the roads’ requests for lower ‘wages for shop crafts employes. Men- tioning the standard country scale asked by B. M. Jewell, head of the &hop unlons, r. Walber remarked i that agreements could have been reached on several roads “if the men had been free to express- their || wishes.” Mr. Jewell immediately took up the challenge, asking Mr. Walber to name any instance in local negotiations || ‘Where the men were not free to act. ‘To do so would endanger the union representative, Mr. Walber replied.

Mr. Walber declared th: ué railroads’ association did not act |/ concertedly. i J. A. Franklin, president of the |/ boilermakers, then jumped into the iscussion. “But you create public semtiment by your propaganda from the rall- association,” he declared. wouldn't {nsult the public by admitting that it was necessary to put thoughts into their heads,” swered Mr. Walber. “As for prop ganda, you can beat the rail seven ways from Sunday on sprea ing propaganda.” Both Mr. Walber and J. W. Hig- gins, representing the western roads, denled thére was any collusion in presenting the requests for lower || wages by the eaStern and western roads, the argument continulng until || Vice Chairman Hooper stopped the dispute by adjournment. The southeastern roads will put representatives on the stand tomor- Tow. $500,000 DRUG SEIZURE. New York Police Also Arrest Al- leged Narcotic Vender.
