All employes on railroads are accorded seniority of service il otherwise competeat. This means that the senior employes ave entitled to choice of worlk, and when it becomes necessary temporarily to reduce forces that the junior men are released and the senior employes retained A strike was ordered by nnion officers whothave no connection with any railroad ny employes in compliance with the order, quit their jobs and left the railroad service, and many did not leave, but remained loyally at work, accepting the government labor hoard decizion. There arc thonsands of such under the rales of r dealing as well as the rules of seniority, he py cted and <oapported. To dis- charge these men wounld be ingratitade of the gross- est sort. In addition to these thonsands who remained in service, other thousands who wanted to work have been employed in good faith. The new employes in a great many cases left other employmont with the understanding that if compeient, they would be re- tained in their present position, These men—those who remained and those who enlisted—have kept the trains in operation, and the needs and the comfort of the pesple supplied. To now a‘k the railroads to <ot these loyal men aside and replace them with (he men who left is to ask the railroads as well as tie government, which is concerned through the action of the | nited Saie Labor Board to be disloyal to these loyal men, THE NEW YORK, NEW HAVEN & HARTFORD RAILROAD COMPANY men who must, " thousaads of einer, golfer, and Dan Singer, archer, at the ninth| “tipped off" to the fact that it was “‘Subsatitute Day" in police court, Or It may be that he was “tipped off' and for that reason requested that his case be adjourned until next week, It was postponed until Wed. nesday, by three negroes employed by Michigan Central road, They reported to the police, The negroes resented a re- quest that they give up their work in the shops and stabbed the two 'white men in abdomen.

Cash must accompany order ' Mechanicél Crafts on N.Y,N.H.& H.R.R. wfll not abide by decision of U.S. R.R. Labor Board and have left their work PRESIDEN T HARDING says of those who take their places : “To maintain operation of the railroads in interstate commerce and the transportation of United States mails have necessitated the employment of men who choose to accept employment under the terms of the decision and who have the same indisputable right to work that others have to decline work.” THE U.S.R.R. LABOR BOARD, an impartial body created by Congress, says of such men: “#%% that they are not strikebreakers seeking to impose the arbitrary will of an employer on employes; that they have the moral as well as the legal right to engage in such service of the American public to avoid in- terruption of indispensable railway transportation, and that they are en- titled to the protection of every department and branch of the Government, State and National.” It is understood assurances have been broadcasted by strikers that they will return with all seniority rating and previous privileges enjoyed. Let there be no misunderstanding about this: No man who has left our service on strike will be re-employed except as a new man, if re-employed at all, and no qualified man now or hereafter employed, who desires to remain in our service, will be displaced to make room for returning strikers.
