OF NORTHERN ILLINOIS Tt < ..." 11 i North Western MM: .%r.v4t'V CONFIDENCE IN AMERICA CWldenee"<#fe -- iistitutionfi has brought prosperity %q the American people. . ie greatest tcstitutkm of tlrfs lountry is its transportation fiystem. The vex% life of this nation iepends on the effidency of Its failroads. 'fl'ha Chicago and North Wtosteitt liailway Company is proud of the fact that the efficiency and loyalty j§f its employes has enabled the ftorth Western to satisfactorily jftischarge its transportati#|| obligations to the public. ^mny disturbance to the dischalf* ^f the North Western's duty to the |>ublic would seriously retard the ifecovery of business from its long \ )>eriod of depression. VPke Chicago and North Westant J^ailway Company recognized the necessity of adjusting the disturbed conditions under which :|pe are living. It voluntarily made inany reductions in freight rates and accepted the reductions ,ordered by the IntCMCState Commerce Commission. ' ^f he North Western also accepted without question--the inqpase wages ordered by the Railroad r Board. i v J, . 5 ^ t U e- oenere Tfiat piotto wesieiu employes should show the same willingness as the Company to abide by the orders of the Railroad Labor Board. This adjustment is fair. After the reduction ordered by the Labor Board, North Western employes will be paid a higher scale tbaii labor in other industries. The reductions in rates of grain, hay and other commodities that were made effective January 1, 1922, together with the reductions effective July 1, 1922, reduces our income--based on our 1921 business-- by |1S,900,000. The reduction in wages ordered by the Railroad Labor Board effective July 1,1922, reduces our expenses --based on XWL fayiefti-- 14,100,000. A strike by North Western employes against the decision of the Railroad Labor Board will not only destroy at once the confidence which the years have given the North Western in its employes, but it will be a strike against this country's progress toward prosperity. ' ' We believe that North Weetesn employes will continue their faith in American institutions and let right and wisdom govern their actions. '•*» «"•> . A W:%h- :sM m. A'ff. •r: - " •*:
