Hundreds of Thousands of Times .£fundreds of thousands of post-war Dodges are now in the hands of owners. They have advanced the average man's or woman's conception of a motor car.

PEARL STKER McHENRY, ILLINOIS THE LEADERS of three railroad unions, representing less than one-tenth of all railroad eaiployees. have called a railroad strike that would paralyze the nation. These leaders refuse to accept a 15% cents an hour wage increase retroactive to November 1, 1947 This increase was recommended by an impartial Emergency Board appointed by President Truman. This increase of 15% cents already has been accepted by the 19 other railroad unions. But the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineer^ the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen, and the Switchmen's Union of North America won't accept what more than 99% of all railroad employes have accepted, lliey have called a strike to get more! Unions refuse rules discussion Certain rules changes dsaanded by these onion leaders which weald Increase wages •rill further -- were rernmumdtil by the Board. Bnt fte whs leaders want more-- they demand that the railroads pat into effect ALL the changes they asked for, indndinf those the Beard felt should be denied. •On top of this, they insist that certain rules dances propoeed by tike railroads be withdrawn-- in spite of the feet that the Board recommended theaa! These union leaders have refused to negotiate except upon these prbitrary terms. Greater wafe increase not justified Engineers and firemen are among the highest paid of all employes in America, as figures in the box show. This strike threat doesn't justify giving a greater increase than other railroad workers received. _ , Emergency Boards are a means provided by the Railway Labor Act in the public intar- 1 -uroid strikes. The President's Boa|& after hearing evidence for 33 days, made recommendations based on all the facts in the case. The railroads have accepted these recommendations. WW's e? Although they deplored so large an extra cost burden, the railroads accepted the report Of the Board because they felt it was in the public interest to uphold the spirit and intent of the Railway Labor Act. contrast, this smaR gnwp of refined union leaders are attempting to flout the intent and spirit of the Railway Labor Act, and dictate their own terms. They have dictated a paralyzing railroad strike. You will be the victim! How long will the American public stand for the undemocratic, arbitrary, and abusive use of the right to strike and the disregard of the obligation to provide transportstionf"" How long can the American people permit' ^ a few dictatorial union leaders to defy the processes provided for peaceful settlement of disputes? Force seldom produces settlements that are.- either fair or bating. Moreover, a point l|. often reached when personal interests nasi be held subordinate to the greater public welfare. That is why the railroads have accepted the Emergency Board rcrommmda tiens. That is also why the leaders of theea three unions should reconsider their deride* to call a paralyzing strike.
