RAILWAY STRIKE VOTE PREPARED

Federal Mediation Appears Inevitable as Carriers Reject Demands.

CHICAGO, Aug. 6 (U.P.).—Railway Labor Brotherhoods prepared today for a strike poll of their 1,150,000 members, and Federal mediation to reopen deadlocked wage negotiations appeared inevitable. A stalemate between management and the 19 unions produced a rapidfire series of developments yesterday, 13 days after the huge bargaining conference opened. The carriers’ negotiating committee announced rejection of all wage demands, which were 30 cents hourly for the 14 non-operating brotherhoods, and 30 per cent raise for the five operating brotherhoods. Neither labor group set a date for the proposed walkout, and their decision left a possible transportation stoppage still distant. Meanwhile, intervention by the three-man Federal Mediation Board appeared certain through one of two avenues. Either the Board will offer its services to mediate the dispute or] the carriers could invoke the services of the Board. If the Mediation Board should be unable to dissolve the deadlock, it

Command Is Changed as Regiment Is on Way To Alaska.

A change in the command of the 201st Infantry, which left Ft. Harrison here a week ago for Camp Murray, Wash., the first stop in its transfer to Alaska, was reported by Pt. Harrison officers today. Lieut.-Col. T. G. Methven, regimental commander, has been transferred from Camp Murray to Camp Luis Obispo, Cal. He has been replaced by Col. J. N. Robinson, who has been stationed at Camp Shelby, Miss. Col. Methven, former senior instructor for the 201st (West Virginia’ National Guard) before it was inducted into Federal service, was elevated to regimental commander after the regiment came to Ft. Harrison. Await New Troops

Meanwhile, Ft. Harrison officers expected to receive word soon concerning the next assignment of army troops to the local army post. It was believed possible that the local reservation might become a replacement training center, instead of a home station for another regiment. The only troops now at Ft. Harrison are selectees being processed at the reception center and small maintenance units.
