PAGE SIX THE CLEAN EVENING HERALD. OLEAN. NEW YOKK, SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE Wage Cuts May Not Be as Drastic as Ordered by Board Unofficial announcement to that effect made in Elmira--No confirmation from local officials That officials of the Pennsylvania Railroad company may not carry out the wage cuts as drastically as ordered by the Railroad Labor Board is reported as being unofficially announced at Elmira, but that the road prefers to adjust its own wage reductions with its men, and may do so in the present case. This is interesting news to the some 1200 to 1300 workers of 'his city, now employed by the Pennsy. Local Officiali Mum Confirmation of this cannot be secured from "local officials.

Master Mechanic C. K. Shelby of the road here is out of town on a vacation and could not be reached. Assistant Master Mechanic C. S.

Roush de, clined to discuss the report, stating that such information would have to come from the office of the general superintendent, A. J. Whitney, in Buffalo. By a recent decision of the Labor Board the railroads are ordered to cut the wage of certain classes of workers sti and six-tenths cents per hour, is taken reduction of to mean that a flat approximately this amount for other rail workers is on the way. Railroad May Demur It now seems likely that the Pennsylvania railroad, which has declined to agree with the.

findings of the Labor Board in other matters is also likely to demur in this. ficials are said to have Elmira of- stated that the cut to go into effect will be governed by wage agreements between the railroad and the employes, through the employe representation method adopted by the It is probable these officials -ay, that in view of the fact that other railroad workers are effected by this cut ih wages, that the Pennsylvania Railroad through Ita employe ---re- sentatives will agree upon a wage reduction, but it is expected that such wage reduction will be less than that ordered by the Labor Board. May Be Conference. At the proper time, if it is desired to reduce the Pennsylvania Railroad will post notices and a conference of employe representatives will be called. Such -action is however, problematical, no intimation having been given bv the officials of the operating departments, as to any contemplated plan for wage reduction at this time.

Employes Concerned- There is, however, much concern among employes of the Pennsylvania Railroad as to what will be decided upon. A wage cut became effective for many Pennsylvania railroad workers three months ago, and there was -uch protest at the time. Another wage cut to become effective during midsummer would be accepted only under f--e protest, as workers in all departments say the limit for wage reductions at this time has been reached.
