Rail Board Hears Case Of Enployes For Second Postponement
New York February 1 President Wilson declines to intervene in railroad wage dispute, a stance hailed by B M Jewell head of the railroad employes department. The labor board would handle wages and working conditions, while financial issues fall to the Interstate Commerce Commission. Jewell denounces Atterbury and ties the open shop to anti union forces, promising orderly action before the railroad labor board on related matters. The House debates a bill on poverty and child support, with votes against increasing penalties and praise for bills aiding families. A Fort Wayne school board bill to raise members and transfer funds is set for tomorrow.
