WORK AND WAGES
AMERICAN RAILWAYMEN, WAGE REDUCTION DECISION. (By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright.) and N.Z. Cable Association.) WASHINGTON, May 19. (Received May 19, 9.40 p.m.) A million unskilled railway workers are affected by the Railway Labour Board’s wages reduction decision, and propose to demand that the Court review the decision. Labour leaders held conferences last night and found precedent for action, which will, however, be delayed until the Board announces the reduction on June I. Great delay will follow the review, and meanwhile the railways intend to make the reduction apply also to skilled workers.
