The ODT had also put into working conditions of Class I eastern railroads, the peculiar conditions of this railroad, which is only 230 miles long. Under the terms of Judge Hilliard's award, which was submitted to the Board for review, the wage rates would have been retroactive to Nov. 10, 1940, which is 30 days after the date when the railroad gave notice of its desire to change its rates of pay and working rules. The Board, however, decided to follow the pattern set by the Pres¬ ident's Emergency Board, which secured a national settlement under which standard wage rates were raised on Class I railroads throughout the country .effective Sept. 1, 1941, and again as of Dec. 1, thus stabilizing wages on Class I railroads throughout the country. / ft The opinion of the Board in this case, written by Wayne L. Morse, public member, reads in part as follows: / /? > / "It will be noted that throughout the turbulent course of this dispute since Pearl Harbor the carrier, despite repeated appeals from four Federal agencies and the President of the United States, has adamantly declined to submit its case to arbitration. In so doing -the carrier in time of war has shown itself unwilling to observe the procedures for the peaceful settlement of labor conflicts as provided in the Railway Labor Act and as provided under the national agree¬ ment between industry and labor establishing the National War Labor Board. /•/ft..ft/''■- '■■, /ft-" /■/'■:,;•.■■'■' "In effect,; the carrier has taken the position that the matters: in dispute in this case should be determined by resort to economic force rather than by peaceful means. Quite aside from the merits of such a position in peacetime, it 1$ clear that in time of war with the nation in great peril no individual citizen, no corporation, no labor organization has the right to take such a stand and to ignore the appeal of the Commander-in-Chief, as was done in this case. . ^ . "Nod only has the carrier in this case preferred a policy of 'rugged individualism' and resort to economic force, but by its refusal'to. appear before Judge Hilliard and participate in the pro¬ ceedings before, him, the management made it necessary for Judge Hilliard and/ this Board to act without, the benefit of the views and as share /■♦.Net profit for period 21 issue rates 25, men effect the with dividends of 20 cents 2085. p. 15 value, payable Oct. 31 to holders of record Oct.

Neither this firm, or- its President, Van Dyk MacBride, who is a director of Triumph Explosives, Inc., were previously aware of the situation, but it is now our intention to follow developments very closely, and to take all steps which may appear possible to protect your interests. 77 "We are advised that the company's current production continues at a high rate, and that from that standpoint there is no criticism from any official source. Earnings are understood to be running at an excellent rate, both regular and extra dividends are being paid on the stock, and the financial condition of the company may be described as sound and satisfactory. It is therefore our opinion that no present stockholder should become alarmed as to the value of his investment, but rather should feel that the steps now being taken will ultimately result in a strengthening of the company's position and a correspond¬ ing addition to the investment value of his stock."—V. 156, p. 1335.
