RAIL MEN MORALLY
OBLIGATED TOPEACE
? i
tf. S. Labor Board Endeavors
I to Prevent Interruption
I of Traffic.
' BOSTON1, January 27.?Hallway 1
managements and their employes
liavo a moral obligation to avoid In- i
terruptlon of traflie and the United
States Railroad Labor Board Is en- i
deavoring to lead both carriers ami t
rail workers to carry out this obli- .
satlon, Ben YV. Hooper, vfco chairman
of the Labor Board, declared today be
fore the Boston Chamber of Com-j
meres.
Mr. Hooper. G. IV. \V. Hanger, pub- ]
Ho member, and W. L.. MeMeuimen,
labor member of the board, were
Kuests of the chamber at a luncheon, ?
v/here Mr. Hooper voiced the opinion j
that America had passed through "the '
winter of our discontent" and was j
now standing on tiptoe, with the slo
gan of the vernacular on her Hps,
'.Let's go!""
"The hard pull is over," the former
Governor of Tennessee said. "The ?
farmer is the only man in the country
wlio has really deflated. He alone
?lid not have the parachute of organi
zation to retard his descent and break
his fall. The next time this country
takes an interna::? *ial joyride in the
Zeppelin of war t*.ariner will ha?e
his parachute along with him and will
not be invited to step out on a storm
cloud and slido down on a rainbow."
Expert* Work Increaae.
Mr. Hooper said he expected the
number of railway employes to be.
largely increased in the spring, that
revenues would be enlarged l.y in
creased business and that conditions
would probably justify a reduction 01*
rates, "which is so essential to the
restoration of normal business."
In returtt to normal, Gov. Hooper
?aid, the ^railroads hud accomplished
the tranmton without any general
strike or Serious disturbance.
"As a rule, both managements and
employes have co-operated cordially
In carrying out the transportation
act," Mr. Hooper said. "This has not
been easy for either side. The rail
roads have had to contend with finan
cial difficulties, and have been con
tinually subjected to the temptation
of taking the bit in their teeth and
trying to get relief by independent
action more quickly than the Labor
Board considered it just and reason
able to give to them. Only a few
carriers have succumbed to this temp
tation. and, in every instance, friction
and discontent have resulted.
"The complaints of the employes
have been that certain carriers, to
avoid dealing with labor organiza
tions, have disregarded the rights of
the majority guaranteed by the trans
portation act, that certain carriers
have evaded the board's wage orders
by having receivers in charge put
into effect wage orders of the courts
"Without submitting the matter to the
board, and that certain carriers have
evaded the wage decisions of the
board by contracting or claiming to
contract certain classes of their work
to independent contractors.
Provocative Situations.
??Whatever may be the merit of
these contentions of the employes, it
Is evident that tliey involve provoca
tive situations. Under somewhat try
ing circumstances the employes have
exhibited commendable self-restraint.
"On the other hand, practically all j
the carriers have promptly put into i
effect decisions of the labor board1
?with which they were not in thor- j
ough accord, and have struggled pa- i
tiently and courageously with dis- i
couraging conditions. j
"The question will occur to you,!
l*, t^ie ^ear ?* ^ie condemnation of
public sentiment always secure the
obedience #f the parties to the deci-!
sions of the Railroad Labor Board, or j
will there come a time when power
ful motives of self-interest will in-!
duce one or the other to trample un
der foot the board's decisions and'
override public opinion? j
"I would not underestimate the i
potency of public opinion. It exerts'
a tremendous influence in this coun- j
try of ours. My personal view is'
that neither the carriers nor their
employes have the moral right to
discontinue railway operation to en
force the demands of either upon the
other.
"It must not be forgotten that
there are some labor leaders and
certain labor periodicals which per
sistently preach the disquieting doc
trine that the toilers of this country
cannot trust the courts and tribunals
having jurisdiction of their troubles.
The Railroad Labor Board, if moved by
a profound desire to do justice, may
largely counteract this destructive
preachment, and that without slop
ping over a like neurasthenic parlor
communist.**
