WASHINGTON, Aug. 22. Officials of the four brotherhoods this afternoon made publio a statement which paralleled the situation to the fable of the golden goose. The statement follows: "Don't kill the goose that lays the golden egg. "Every day or so this old bromide is handed to the railroad men. Reduced to a basic proposition, what does it mean? "We remember the old story of the chap who found out one morning that his goose had laid a golden egg. Being an avaricious fellow he wanted all out of that goose that he could get.
