TWO CENTS
No Move to Check Strike Strike leaders recovered from the bomb shell thrown yesterday by Attorney General Daugherty and made no move to check the strike. A guarded statement from the headquarters of the federated shop crafts declared that organization would support the Government's efforts to “end lawlessness and violence in connection with the strike.” The statement declared, however, “it can hardly be assumed that the Federal Court intended to restrain those lawful acts necessary in carrying on the legitimate work of labor organizations.” The Government stood ready to take even more drastic steps, it was indicated. Use of State and national troops and the issuing of receiverships for all railroads were among the measures i considered. “Outrageous" Says Gompers Gompers and other leaders of organized labor here characterized the Federal Injunction restraining the strikers and their leaders from interfering in any way with transportation, including giving out of interviews, as “one of the most outrageous pieces of business in the history of the country.” William H. Johnston, president of the International Association of Machinists, one of the shop crafts organizations on strike, declared that he would continue to exercise his constitutional rights. Gompers stated that the conference of the executive council of the Federation would undoubtedly outline a course of action. The widespread demand for a general strike will be discussed by the council. Gompers seated that neither he nor the council had the authority to call a general strike. This power rests with the individual unions. Administration officials, however, scoff at talk of a sympathetic strike. They do not believe that Gompers would recommend one. The fear of prosecution under the conspiracy statutes would keep the other union leaders in line, they said. WRECKER CONFESSES Akron Man Confesses Tying Heavy Chain to Railroad Tracks.
