NEGOTIATIONS BROKEN Between Marine Engineers and Ship- ping Board for a Settlement on Wages and Working Conditions. Washington, June 3.—Negotiations between the marine engineers and the shipping board for a settlement of the : dispute on wages and working condi- | tions have been broken off W. S. { Brown, president of the Marine Engin- éers Beneficial association, declared to- day. The fallure to reach a settlement, Brown said, was due to the refusal of % | the shipowners and the shipping board | to inctude a clause providing for the reinstatement of striking engineers. 2| ‘“We could not sign an agreement that would force our men to work with the stMkebreakers who had taken the jobe of union mefi,” he sald. “Up to last night 1 had every hopé that Secre- tary Davis would be able to conciliate the differences and both the secretary and I so indicated, but our efforts to have a reinstatement clause included | in the terms have proved to be a fail- | ure.” Brown “sald that he would make a statement regarding the entire negotia- tions after the meeting today of Presi- dent Harding's cabinet, at which he expects the subject t0 be discussed.

Ruling Cost' Railroads i 86,446,008 During War | \ Washington, June 3.—Provisions of the national agreements placed in ef- fect during government control, which required “the railroads to al- low employes one hour extra pay each week for punching the clock regard- less of the/ number of hours actually worked,” cost the railroads $6,445,- 658 during the first six months of | last year, E. T. Whiter of Philadel- phia, chairman of the conferénce committee of managers, told a senate investigating committee today. An order issued by the director j géneral in July, 1918, guaranteeing to men employed on piece work ‘“the same minimum hourly rate as those of hourly workers, resulted in a de- crease ranging from ten to 40 per cent in the output of piece work men,” Mr. Whiter said, adding: “This falling off in production be- came uniformly noticeable when - it was known by the piece workers that they would receive no increases but were guaranteed only the minimum hourly rate.” “Comparisons between the piece work basis and hourly basis were maintained by the roads until Febru- ary, 1919, when the managements were prohibited by the railroad ad- ministration from continuing such comparisons.” Provisions of the national agree- ments permitting the employment as car repairers of only those men who have served an apprenticeship in the car department or who have had four years’ practical experience on car work, Mr. Whiter said, results in a “waste of skill and an unneces- sary increase in the cost of such re- pairs.” “The rule is not consistent or practical,” he contended, “and draws a line around car work which pre- vents the employment of any man who has had experience in analogous work. The railroad should have the privilege of employing for the car department, upholsterers, painters, patternmakers, etc., men who have had experience irrespective of where aoquired even though they have not previouly had four years' experience on car work. There is no justifica- tion whatever for such a rule in con- nection with freight car work.” CITY ITEMS. June Victor records now on sale at C. L. Pierce and Co. advt.

Senator Kenyon Makes Sensational Claim in Opposing $50,000,000 Deficiency Measure. i Washington, June 3.—Operation of the government's merchant fleet by ! the Shipping Board is “reeking with graft,” Senator Kenyon charged to»1 day in the senate in opposing a de- | ficiency appropriation of $50,000,000 | { for the board for the remainder of ! this fiscal year. Reading a list of salaries paid of- ficials employed by the board, Senator | Kenyon said they “make the salaries of cabinet members and senators look like 30 cents.” He said the auditor j of the Shipping Board was paid $15,- j 000 and that an assistant auditor at $5,000 acted as his chauffeur. The senator also read a series of telegrams which he said had been sent by board employes at government expense. One telegfam related to an engagement to a girl in Virginia, an- other to the obtaining of tickets to {a Yale football game, and still an- other, evidently from a husband to his wife, read: “Leave the door open. { home about midnight.” “These gentlemen,” added Senator Kenyon, “also are interested in keep- ing open the door to the federal treasury.” Will be !
