Cost Road $250,000 More. In a statement .issued by President Robert W. Perkins of the Shore Line he reiterated his previous statement that the operating expenses of the road now are exceeding its receints and said that the new wage schedule asked by the employes would mean an added expense to the road of $239.000. This made it an absolute impossibility for the road to grant the increase, he declared, for he did not believe the people of this section of the state were willing to accept the increase in fares that would be required to meet this sum and the other added.operating | expenses. He said that the road had {had little or no difficulty in securinz competent men during the past few months. as evidenced by the fact that while the number of platform men employed in July of last year was 270, the number employed in June of this year was 304. 3 We want to see our men get all the money to which they are entitled, his statement continued, but, with cond tions as they now exist, we can only agree to continue the present rate and . even then we cannot agree to i continue the operation of the present schedule for an indefinite time with- out increased patronage. Trolleymen’s Statement. Wednesday night the joint commit- tee of the trolleymen gave out the fol- lowing statemen: July 16, 1919. | To the Public of the Communities Served by the Shore Line Railway Company: We, the undersigned committee representing the egployes of said company .wish to_take issue with a statement in the Norwich Bulletin of iJuly 16th., 1919, purporting to come from President Perkins of the Shore |Tine Company, wherein he states that this is mot a strike against the cor- poration which he represents, but a strike against the traveling public. In June, 1918, this same Mr. Per- kins representing .the . Shore Line Company entered into a . written agreement with the employes which Was signed by his general manager, Mr. M. G. Stratton, one article of I'which is numbered Article 10, and is jas follows: Provisions For Arbitration. Section 1. It is mutually agreed that the comi- pany and the association will use their best efforts to adjust any ahd all grievances that may at any ‘time arise and be presented by either the company or the association. In the event that after a reasonable and oner attemnt has been made to ad- just such differences an agreement or ijustment cannot be reached. then !at the request of either the company or tne association the matter shall be ' submitted to a board of arbitration. And it is mutually agreed that the de- cisiohs of such board of arbitration {the -association hereby bind ~them- |selves to agree fully and freely with. iand conform to, the decisions of such board of -arbitration. Section 2. It is mutually agreed its! They were in the city about a week that the board of arbitration for the and |disputes upon which the company and |the association have. after due and | proper negotiation, fail to reach an |agreement, shall consist of - three one to be chosen by the one to be chosen by the as- and the third to be chosen by the other two. It is f1# her agreed that the association and the company | will submit the names of their arb |trator within six davs after the e- |quest for arbitration has been made and if either the association or the | company fails to name their arbitra- tor within the time specified. such failure will be considered as full for- feiture of the case. Section 3. It is further agreed that the arbitrator chosen by the company land the arbitrator chosen by the as- sociation shall within ten days choose !the thira arbitrator: ~and in the {event that they fail to agree upon or Iname the third arbitrator within the time specified, the two arbitrators { shall petition the secretary of labor at | Washir~ton to name the third arbitra- | tor, anc shall accept as the third ar- | bitrator the individual named-by such secretary of labor. Section 4. It is ithat the expenses incidental to the appointment of and the conducting lthe business affairs of the board of {arbitration shall be borne as follows: the company shall pay the ecxpenses of its own arbitrator the associatien shall pay the expenses of its own ar- bitrator. and the 41 the association shall j the ex- penses of the third frator, and such other legitimate expenses as may be necessary to successfully carry forth the arbitration. Section 5. It is mutually agreed that whgn the board of arbitration has been sefected and the three arbitra- tors decided upon or arranged for, the 'arbitrators shall proceed within ome week from said date to hear the mat- ters in .controversy between the paP- ties and shall proceed daily u'ws the [matter is determined. This agreement is still in force and if ‘the company were sincere when they entered into it and lived up to it the present condition which the pub- lic of these communities have pre- sented to them could not and would not occur. As-anyone can see, after glaneing over Article 10, it would be an utter impossibility for the employ- es“to susvend work if the company had carried out the 1918 agreement, but ‘we are not surprised at any state- ment emanating from the officials of this company. We have tried and we implored the officials of this company not to discommode the great mass of | travelling publie, but it was all of no {avail, so there was nothing else left | for us to do. We feel and have felt |from the state of our negotiations | with this company that they wanted this condition brought about. and per- haps if they told the public the entire truth they would say (Yes) we are re- sponsible for this condition in order to teach certain interests that when we ask for certain things we must get them or we are going to know the reason why. So we repeat this is not in any sense a strike against the pub- licfor there is nohody more than our- selves that regrets the inconvenience that it causes the masses who -are after all the werkers of this communi- tv. and like aursalves have all thav mutually agreed | ~ . Mon & o e can oo’ g !ieqt? t & mis Perkins 15 also quoted as say ¢ Be dnvited .both sides to pre- sent tHeir the public. We want to call to. Mr. _attention that this is not original-with him, that on July® 2, 1919, .our “international vice president, Mr. O'Brien, outlined a pol- ley by which the entire public could Dbe represented .and awve belleve at that conference that such a policy would be cairiedbecause Mr. Perkins, Mr. Stratton and Mr. Cain all agreed that | that would bring about the desired ef- erable exist- the em] ves leaving a-al seeking oth- er pasiti ositions, whep that condition pre- sented i “i;dm‘ the period of the worid, war because of the wretchedly low wage this .company was paying, ;lhey increased the wages voluntarily three. cents an hour, and then couldn't iget_the help or hold those that they Rads 2oty Tig -As fo the' Danbury situation, this road has.been. in” the hands of a re- ceiver for gver a year, it h#s a five cent fare on its city lines ana 4 ‘seven cent fare on its interurban lines. Dur- ing the last thirteen months it. went behind over ‘sixty-two thousand dol- {lars in its.operating expenses and yet the court rather than see the. public inconvenienced by @ _suspension of work ordered the receiver to arbitrate the question in ‘dispute, but what have the Shore Line officials dome to pre. vent the inconvenignce to the public They dlso. quote the earnings of one platform’ man as being 52.16 for onc ‘week’s ‘work. Divide that by the high- est rate paid per hour which is 42 1-2 cents and the answer is that the man lworked ane hundred and twenty-nine Ihours. "Based upon a ten hour day ithat man worked twelve days and nine- |hours in ome week. The Shore Line i company ought to be proud to give out any sych statistics in this enlightened age when the workers, of the world outdide of the street car ~men are working eight hours for a day's work and receiving from thirty to fifty dol- lars a week. He says that a very large percentage of the men have the same opportunity of putting in thirteen days in seven, ‘We want to say that is a false impression. As a matter of fact we know of spare men, In the winter time, especially, who have had to live on six or ‘seven hours a day at thir- ty-five cents per Hour. We are the low- est paid men in New England and these facts we stand ready to prove in a debate ‘upon the public platform at any time. (Signed.) THE COMMITTEE. City Travel Light. A pouring rain almost all day cut down trayel in the city to the mini- mum so that jitney men and proprie- tors of. the auto bus service did not reap the benefit of the trolley strike that they expected as the patronage of this mode of travel was not very much larger than when the trolleys were in operation.' This was due large’,: to the fact that practically all of the manufacturing plants in the suburban districts sent auto trucks for their help and that the weather was bad. The prices on the busses were kept at the same rates of 35 cents to New London but the owners of touring cars used as public service charged varying prices from 50 cents up to $2 for the. trip. .One woman was charged $3 for” tramsportation as far as the state hospital. People may be forced t6 pay exorbitant prices for transportation ‘now but they will surely rémember those jitney men who profiteered. when the . strike ‘is over. Try for Sunday Trains. Anticipating the continuance of the strike' through the rest of the week and up to Saturday and considering the large loss that would accrue to Norwich' merchants if the people from the surrounding territory could not jset here as usumal that day, the cham- {ber of commerce bestirred -itself to see if_some speoial train service could not be arfanged for that day. To accommodate those along the line of the Central Vermont road, the chamber of commerce officers are try- ing to see if an extra train cannot be irun from Willimantic to New Lop- |don, Jeaving Willimantic at 1230 Jp. | . Northbound they are asking for | | an exira to Jeave New London at 8.30 or 9 o'clock p. m. So as to accommo- date the home-going crowd. On the New Haven road they will seek to have the northbound train due here just after noon run on to Putnam and return and the s thing also with the train about clock from New London. Handling the M . Postmaster John P. Murphy was at | work -Wednesday .to see that there | was no interruption in the mail ser- ivice to Taftville and Greeneville post offices. The sacks have been regu- Jarly sent from the Norwich office by trolley, four or five trips a day. Post- master Murphy of Taftviile was able to arrange Wednesday the - motortrucks ‘going to Taftville took the mail bags, and the Norwich | postmaster ~ was in communication with Washington to get authority to handle the situation that has arisen.
