Sneaking to u panel composed* ir " ' ' ! if"?
of the poreonnol management da**
the atudent chapter pf the Society
for the Advancement of Manage
ment, and the Economic* Club,
Ky*h dUcusKcd “Railroad Labor
Contract*—Their Relation to the
Industry."
The panel Was tho second bf
three »ueh panel* to be held by
the Southern Pacific Railroad on
uilroad problem*. ! :
Ky*h, first assistant manager of
personnel for ^Southern Pacific
Railroad, outlined the provision* of
the Railroad Labor Act of 1.923,
which governs all labor dispute*
in that industry. Throughout the
vears, he said, labor legislation
has worked fairly wej^. “The Rail
road Labor Art is the best friend
the railroads or railroad labor has
ever had,” he added.
He estimated that 85 percent
of all railroad employees are rep
resented by .railroad organiza
tions and contracts.
In regard to wages of railroad
employees, Kysh said that 61.9 per
rent of every dollar of revenue goes
to its employees as wages or sal
aries. For that reason, he said, it
is difficult to continue in the spiral
of wage increase*. ' j
Without the volume of business
that railroads are doing today, he
explained, they would be operating
at a deficit. WJien business begins
to slow down the decrease in the
volume of business will force wages
downward, or bring about! railway
bankruptcy, Kysh Said. F
The only weakness, in the Rail
road Labor Act is that the find
ings of the Emergency Bo*;
pointed by the president,
binding upon either of the
Since 1941 it has been the practice
of labor unions to refuse the rec
ommendations of ,the Emergency
Board and to hold put for greater
concessions. This fault, he said, if
not in the law itself, but In th
administration of that Jaw; ° .
In connection with the Emer
gency Board, he *aid that when
the Board's recommendations art
refused, no other, meana art left
for settlement except the strike.
