Our loss for the Six months just passed, exclusive of any return to the owners of the Shore Line, is in excess of $173,000.00, and that loss must be met by increased revenue, and any increase of wage add- ed to this must become a direct tax upon the car riders, and we have seen no indication that they are ready to meet this increased tax and, even if we would see prospects of an in- crease of gross earnings, we would not dare to agree to pay out the money until we werg sure of collecting it. If, then, the property is to be operat- ed as a whole, it must be at the old wage rate, and we trust that our pat- rons are now sufficiently familiar with the facts to recognize the difficulties under which we are laboring, and ap- preciate the fact that they are, them- selves, partners in this enterprise, and very important partners for they fur- {nish the revenue that permits the op- eration, the capital contributed by the owners receiving ne recognition what- ever at the present time, and the prop- erty created by that capital has been devoted to the uses of the public with- out any recognition.

Mr. Rooney issued the foilowing statement Tuesday night Tuesday Mr. In a statement on Perkins said that he has repeatedly stated that the contract of 1918 did not provide for the matter of wages and applied ‘only to sgrievances as the wages were absolutely fixed. = We have showed this clause to various at- torneys, one of whom was ex-Attor- W.

Mr. Perkins also states that "the position we have taken is that we will not arbitrate unless we are absolutely sure before we go into arbitration that the decision is to be in our fa vor. We feel that Mr. Perkins has no right to question the honesty and integrity of both Mr. Taft and Mr. Manly of the war labor board in their selection of the third man for the ar- bitration committee. Were we to try to influence them in their choice we feel sure that they would promptly expose us. However, Mr. Perkins’ in- sistance makes us positively sure that we should not accept any of the pro- positions of the arbitration other than the one that he " ed . throuzh the mediation eouunium;?’ Mr.- ~ has spoken frequently of the fairness of various propositions presented us and to date he has re- fysed to stand on his own proposition &% offered to us through the media- tion board.

Cm an average they are recciving about $26 a week or 327. One of the older men, counting his overtime, gets 330 a week but he has been on the road for more than ten years. They can't afford to loaf much longer and unless the strike is adjusted within the next few days, or there are prospects of it many more will look around for other jobs. Nome of them here have ex- pressed any willingness to o ack to work at the old wages. They are still holding out for an increase. Their actions are governed, however, by any action that the union will take. WESTERLY CREWS VOTE TO HOLD OUT (Special to The Dulletin) Westerly, R. L. July 29.
