P. Shonts, President, Mr. Frank Hedley, Vice-Pres. & Gen’l Mgr. Gentlemen: We, the undersigned uniformed employees of the New York Railways Company, desire to make these facts clear: 1. We have given no one authority to present any demands on our behalf to the Management of the Company. 2. We believe the relations between the Man- agement and the men of this Company can be set- tled within the family ranks and without outside interference. 3. We shall be glad to join in perfecting a scheme which will give specific representation to all employees in the maintenance of satisfactory relations between the Company and its employees. 4. We are earnestly desirous of remaining at our work and co-operating to the end that there shall be no interruption, so far as we are con- cerned, of the street railway service of New York City. The signatures to that paper rep- resent 94 per cent. of our conductors and motormen..: We thank our men most heartily for their pledge of loyalty. It will not be forgotten. They have promised to stand by us—and by the people of New York. We renew our pledge to stand by them. All this means that the street railways of New York City will keep going.
