Officials of Southeastern railroads hood of Rallway Trainmen and the | Order of Railroad Conductors fave accepted invitations from Chairman Winslow of the United States Board of Mediation to attend executive ses sions in Washington to discuss the wage increase demand now pending in that territory. The railroad labor organizations, in backing up a demand for a wage in ase, have taken a strike vote throught the southeastern territory preparatory for pressing the situation to a conclusion Plan General Discussion. The meetings in Washington are signed to allow a general discussion. The board’s arbitration was accepted by eastern railroads and by train serv- ice organizations in that territory last yvear, and the arbitration resulfed in the granting of a 71 per cent wage increase on Eastern lines. Whether the controversy in the Southeast will develop in the same fashion remains 1 qupestion which may be settled at the pending conference. Open Vots Tomorrow.
