Breaking Down of Hard Won Working
Rules Worse Than Cut In
Wages, Says Labor Man
(By Associated Press)
Cleveland, Oct. 17.-The progressive
railroad strike scheduled to begin Oct.
30 can be settled by the railroads or
prevented by the government, Warren
S. Stone, president of the Brotherhood
of Locomotive engineers said tonight
when asked his opinion of the situa-
tion. Mr. Stone said the causes of the
strike is largely because of the ac-
tion of railroad managers in request-
ing a further 10 per cent wage reduc-
tion and the elimination of favorable
working agreements on upwards of 75
roads, in addition to the 12 per cent
wage reduction which went into effect
July 1. The railroads can settle the
strike by elimination of these condi-
tions, Mr. Stone said.
Believes Strike Is Wanted
"The goverment can prevent the
strike by taking over the railroads and
this is what will happen eventually,"
Mr. Stone said.
Mr. Stone said he believed that the
railroads "want a strike and that a
further reduction in wages is much
.iess desirable to the railroad execu-
tives than the abrogation of rules and
regulations won by employees in var-
ious ways as the result of years of
organized effort."
"If it had been iX question of wage
reduction only, there would have been
no strike," Mr. Stone said, adding that
he has from 75 to 100 letters giving in-
stances of attempts by several differ-
eint roads to break down working rules
that have been secured by arbitration,
by decision of the railroad labor board
and in other ways.
Does Not Affect Small Lines
"The Big Five" chiefs or their rep-
resentatives will convene tomorrow
to consider matters pertaining to the
strike. Just what will be discussed,
Mr.,Stone wasunable to state to-
night, adding that the situation in
general will be reviewed. The strike
wil not affect the so-called short line
railroads, it was explained by W. G.
Lee, president of the Brotherhood of
Railroad Trainmen, inasmuch as they
were not affected by the wage in-
creases and reductions in which the
large roads figure.
FORESTERS COMMENCE- YEAR'S
ACTIVITIES WITH CAMP FIRE
The annual All-forester camp fire
will open the social year for the for-
estry classes tomorrow night.
Foresters are to meet at the D. U.
R. station Wednesday afternoon in
time to leave at 5:50 o'clock for the
Saginaw Forest, where the camp fire
will be held in the evening. While
thes camp fire is for all members of
the forestry classes, it is especially
desired to have all freshmen present
for this first meeting of the year
Prof. Filibert Roth of the forestry de-
partment will have charge of the
party.'
Technicalexcellence Characterizes
Opening Concert For Music Week
IHOMOEOPS GATHER
ii FOR "CLINIC 0DAY"
(By Sydney Coates)
With every number executed with
technical excellence the first concert
on the Faculty series and the first
formal program of Michigan's First,
Music week came to a successful close
Sunday afternoon in Hill auditorium.
Community singing and special fea-
tures will mark this eiening's pro-
gram in Pattengill auditorium.
Albert Lockwood opened Sunday
afternoon's program with Chopin's
"Fantasie, Opus 49". The interpreta-
tion given the work was one full of
vitality and color in which technical
difficulties were marshaled by the
pianist with ease and precision. Of
the other works played by Mr. Lock-
wood perhaps the "Pastorale Variee"
of Mozart brought the most apprecia-
tion from the audience.

"Arioso: Salutation of the Dawn", a
rendering of an old Sanskrit poem
full of the strange but true prophecy
of the East. Miss Hunt's full, color-
ful voice with the violin obligato
by Marian Struble and accompani-
ment by Clara Lundell, made a pleas-
ing combination. Miss Hunt's other
three numbers and especially the
"Hindoo Love Song" of Bemberg
brought strong applause.
The third division of the program
was played by Samuel Pierson Lock-
wood, head of the violin department
of the School of Music. His rendering
of Mendelssohn's entire "Concerto,
Opus 64", showed his mastery of the
violin in his clean cut execution of
the passages of this great composer.
Mr. Lockwood's work was supple-
mented by excellent accompanying on
the part of Mrs. Maud Okkelberg.
Topight's Program
