CARRIES PLAN TO
REITERATE DEMAND
FOR NEW WAGE CUTI
DECLARE STRIKE SETTLEMENT
WILL NOT AFFECT PLAN
ANNOUNCED OCT.14
600 TEXAS EMPLOYEES
STILL AWAY FROM WORK
Labor Board Expected to Render
Decision for Wednesda Hearing
Tomorrow
(By Associated Press)
Chicago, Oct. 28. - Railroad heads
tonight declared the nation's carriers
would go right ahead with their
plans to seek new wage cuts through
Railway Labor board hearings. This
will be done despite the announce-
ment of the unions that their action
in calling off the strike, scheduled for
Oct.. 30, had been influenced by the
board's announcement that a pay re-
duction petition for any class would
not be considered until working con-
ditions for that class had been set-
tled.
Seek Wage Reduction
"The calling off of the strike will
have no effect on the plans announc-
ed by the carriers, Oct. 14, to seek
immediate wage reduction so that
rates could be reduced," said Samuel
Felton, president of the Chicago
Great Western and president of the
Association of Western Railroad Ex-
ecutives. "I don't know how long it
will take to reach a decision on any
pay cut petition,but these petitions
will be presented in a very short
time. It will be up to the board then
to decide when action will be taken.'
Mr. Felton's statements were echoed
by Samuel Dunn, editor of Railway
Age, who in an address at a luncheon
of the local railroad executives, de-
clared that "the union action settles
only one thing, that there will be no
strike. It does not settle the ques-
tion of further wage reduct'n or of
freight reduction."
Texans Still Out
With the code messages officially
calling off the strike sent out today,
only one echo remained of the rail-
road crisis, which for two weeks
threatened to develop into a general
rail strike. The situation was un-
changed on the Texas lines, where 600
trainmen walked out last Saturday.
No order to call off the strike was
sent these men, W. G. Lee, president
of the trainmen, saying that the
matter "is in the hands of the union
officials down there."
Mr. Lee, however, conferred with
the Labor board today, and it is known
that he is making every effort te
bring a settlement of the strike which
will be satisfactory to the employes
Rail Heads Leave Chicago
The chiefs of the "Big Five" left
for their homes tonight. The Labo
board continued work on its decision
for Wednesday's hearing and proba-
bly will render it tomorrow.

To Urbana Trip
Ends At Jackson
For 16 Students
An exciting railroad ride from here
to Jackson, a warm reception by the
police upon arriving in that city, and
several hours of the night in jail were
the experiences of 16 studetns riding
blind baggage to the Illinois game.
More than 25 students stowed them-
selves away on the 10:40 train out of
Ann Arbor Thursday night. Depot of-
ficials tried to put the culprits off
before the train left Ann Arbor, but
without success. They just sneaked
back on.
On the journey the trainmen still
tried to put them off, using the hose
as means of persuasion. The students
believe that the trainmen thought
they were scabs going to Chicago to
break up the impending railroad
strike.
When the train pulled into Jackson
the blind baggagers were welcomed
by a volley of shots from the police.
A general round-up and many chases
through the streets finally landed 16
of the party in jail. Ann Arbor offi-
cials had telephoned ahead to Jack-
son.
That happened at 1:30 o'clock yes-
terday morning. At 4:30 relief ap-
peared upon the horizon when Frank
Blackman, graduate of tho Law
school, obtained their release.
Most of the students had tunas to
go on with the Journey, but a few of
the unlucky ones were forced to re.
turn to Ann Arbor.

Blames Wave of Moral Laxness
War and Passage of Eighteenth
Amendment

to

"CHARACTER BUILDING HAS
BEEN FORGOTTEN," HE SAYSI
Civilization is confronted by a wave
of moral laxity, which should serious-
ly concern educators, President Mar-
ion L. Burton told 4,700 teachers
Thursday afternoon at the convention'
of the Michigan State Teachers' asso-
ciation held in Detroit,
Defends Young People
There never was greater concern for
private morals than at present, the
teachers were told. The cry against,
"these wild young people" is con-
stantly heard. "The wild young peo-
ple," said the President, "are not so
wild as we think they are, nor are we
so conservative as they think us. The
fine standards of our fathers, which
we accuse the young people of violat-
ing, are not so fine as we think they
are. We have made a mess of
things. Ask yourselves what kind of
a world we are turning over to the
youngsters."
The President went on to say that
in view of the various problems be-
fore us - the war tax, the currency
system of Europe, the possibility of a
railway tie-up, the limitation of arma-
ment conference and the unemploy-
menttsituation, it was not strange
that the coming generation should
think that especially fine results have
not been produced by the standards
of the past years.
Blames War
In some ways, the President stat-
ed, the wave of moral laxness was re-
lated to the war and the passage of
the Eighteenth Amendment. Prohibi-
tion, he said, had brought about a
feeling that personal liberty was be-

failure," he said. "Education must
produce sound character. On this
rests the future of American ideals.",
Dr. Burton asserted that there is some
truth in the statement that private
schools have been better able to getl
at character training. He declared
that public schools have been so con-
cerned with the technique of teaching
that they have forgotten that they are
preparing future citizens.
Freshman Lits Elect Officers Monday

Hallowe'en party Monday afternoon.E

Plans Dralvn For

Formulative plans for an undergrad-
uate Medical society, patterned after
the American Medical association, are
under way among the medical stu-
dents. The movement has met with
the approval of Dean Hugh Cabot. The

dent membership of the Medical
school. Primarily, its object is to en-
courage research work among the stu-
dents. In connection with this idea,
a day will be set aside next spring
when several prominent medical men
will speak and students will present
papers to the society.
An executive board has been chosen

fice have been made: For president,
J. E. Ludwig, '22M, W. R.Torgerson,
'22M; for vice-president, R. L. Must-
ard, '24M, Ruth Snyder, '24M; for sec-
retary, L. C. Ludlum, '23M, G. F. Keip-
er, '22M; J. W. Nagle, '22M; and for
treasurer, O. H. Gillett, '23M; N. S.
Keeler, '24M, and C. B. Zipf, '24M.

Said a visiting father after taking
dinner at the "Y" Inn with his son:
"Gee Son, I'm glad you are eating at
the 'Y' Inn. Your meals are just like we
have at home.
It's true, too!
