10 AGREEMENT AS TO WAGES 01 ELECTRIC RAILWAYS No final agreement has yet been reached by employes of the Ogden, Logan Lo-gan and Idaho railway and tho officials offi-cials of the road on tho question of a new wage scale. Directors of the com- pany have met with a committee of the! employes during the past couple of days, but it was stated this afternoon that a wage scale has not yet been definitely agreed upon. Tho employes desire an increase over the old wage scale, which was 25 cents, 27 cents, and 30 cents depending upon the length of service. Although employes of the company would like to receive the same wages as the trolleymen of Salt Eake, officers offi-cers of the road maintain that traffic on the Ogden lines Is not heavy enough to warrant paying as much as is paid in Salt Lake
