Street Railway Employees of America, perfected the organization, which has been in secret formation for two months, If the trouble is allowed to come to a head and the whole tide ot traffic in Manhattan and the Bronx is thrown on the surface roads the fe- sulting confusion will be tremendous, Citizens of Harlem and the Bronx will be practically cut off from the downtown section because the crowding of the surface cars will make the trip the length of the island a journey of many hours. The belief of the men that the city will not stand for this condition for more than twenty- four hours is what makes them confident that they will win the strike, should it be called. This proposed strike grows directly out of the agitation created tast year by the engineers and firemen, who felt their positions endangered when electricity was substituted for steam. They threatened a strike and secured $3.50 a day for motormep for nine hours, extra pay for overtime and a continuation of the salaries of firemen in other positions until pro- moted to be motormen. Ei “L” guards get $1.85 a day; conductors get $2.35. The new schedule will demand an increase of 15 cents a day in both grades and some con- cessions regarding time. “We, will strike unless we get what we want,” said one of the leaders in the movement to-day, “and when the strike comes it will come with moiormen and has reduced about thirty of them to the position of guards. They will support us, if necessary. “For our $1.85 a day we are supposed to cover 140 miles in ten hours. It is seldom that we do it. We work overtime and don't get paid for it. Our plan is to have the whole thing settled before the control of the ‘L’ passes from the Manhattan Company to the Interborough sys- tem, on April 4.” When Assistant Supt.
