DRASTIC STRIKE
NICTON GETS
IMG'8 0.1
By Robert J. Bender
Untfl News Staff Correapim-ient.
Washington, Sept. 2. The govern
ment, in obtaining an injunction
against both the leaders and the rank
And. file of the r$lway Ehoprnen to
'.restrain virtually every conceivable
effort to carry on the railway strike
has admittedly taken"the most sweep
ing actio!" in the nation's industrial
hlatoryfJ :
' President Harding, believing the si t
uation Justified the course adopted by
Attorney General Daugherty at Chicago
Friday and convinced that the raea-Bure-
will be helpful, is determined to
' keep transportation going, it is offi
cially emphasized, and if the injunction
i does not meet the situation the govern-
ment will not stop there.
Meantime the increased number of
I violent outbreaks along the lines has
led officials to forecast early troop
' movements designed to protect railroad
properties.. T'
EXECUTIVES SOT IXCXT7DED
! In response to- inquiries as ' to Why
c the federal action . taken in Chicago
was directed solely at the shopmen and
did not include the rail executive, it
: was stated at the White House ahat
: the latter were doing everything' An
. their power to move trains and that
the only action in this direction which
: appeared left to the government was
action, against the properties them
selves? The action by Daugherty evoked
both def is and" warnings from labor of
ficials in "Washington. -Samuel Gomp
ers, president of the Federation of La
bor, -declared the "action of the depart
ment of justice will do more than any
other thing to solidify striking and
- uonrstriking workers of the country.''
He warned that a greater 'demand ex
ists today among the laboring people
for a general strike than ever before
In the country's history.
GENERAL STRIKE URGED
The executive council, of the Ameri
can Federation of Labor will meet
next week and proposals for a general
strike suggested in the form of resolu-
ttons'from many locals and trartrcoun-
cils throughout the country, will corn
before it at that time.
The executive council could not call a
nation wide walkout of all organized
labor, but it could recommend such a
walkout and J officials declared that
all Gompers has to do is to "snap kis
fingers.'"
Meantime Gompers said Friday. "The
American Federaticn of Labor will
continue to give its moral and other
support to the strkers. Attorney Gen
eral Daugherty's action was outrage
ous. It will encourage the 'spread of
bolshevlsm and violence.
DAUGHERTY IS SCORED
. William It Johnston, president of
the machinists' union, Issued hls def i :
"The whole; power of the government
is being used on behalf of the railroads
and against the workers. If Attorney
General Daugherty wished to perforin
his duty he would enforce the laws that
now are on the statute books instead of
going to the courts to obtain injunc
tions.' This has become a government
of Injunctions. Mr. Daugherty appar
ently belongs to Russia."
"However," Johnson added. "the
whole thing is just another one of the
foolish moves of Lhe present administra
tion. We are r.ot apprehensive. All
the men have to do is to stay away
from the railways and they will col
lapse. The deterioration of equipment
continues. Meantime we have still a
few constitutional rights left and we
will continue, to stand on them."
TIOLATION.IS CLAIMED
Gompers declared the rail strike in
junction a "violation of section 20 of
the Clayton anti-trust act, which de
Clares that no restraining order or
injunction shall be granted by any
court of the United States ?r a judge
or the judges thereof, in any caae be
tween an employer and employes, or
between employers and employees, or
between employees or between persons
employed and persons seeking em
ployment, involving or growing out of,
a dispute concerning terms orcondi
tlons of employment unless necessary
to prevent irreparable injury to pro-'
perty, or to a property right, of the
fearty making- the -application for which
injury there is no adequate remedy at
law, and such property rights must
be described with particularity in the
. applications, which must be in writing
and sworn to by the applicant or by
, his agent or attorney."
""Q PROPERTY RIGHT"
"The government has no property
right," Gompers pointed out, "and, much
less has it any property in the rail
roads. Surely this most outrageous
proceeding cannot be justified. The
only thing the inj-tnetion doesn't con
tain is an order to the men to return to
work under penalty of imprisonment
for contempt of court.
"The Injunction is really a process
of manufacturing radicalism and bol
shevlsm. It is quite -strange that in
our republic, foundtd on this principle
and right of man, that the political

party which, under Lincoln, abolished
slavery, is now engaged In a movement
for the restoration ot compulsory labor.
"Most emphatically do I repeat that
the ! American Federation of Labor
still continues to give its moral support
to the striking shopmen and will aid
them in bringing about an honorable
and mutually advantageous adjust
ment. "It is the official advice of the A. F.
fo ij. to all its members that when in
junctions are issued that invade the
constitutional rights of working people,
they should treat these injunctions as
if tbjey had not been, issued.
PUT UP TO HEX v
"Of course in tne present instance
the men will have to follow the bent of
theij- judgment and convictions In the
observance or - nonobservance of this
injunction for the A. F. of L. has no
mandatory power, but I think I know,
the aliber of the men. They are in
telligent, patriotic Americans, not like
ly to surrender their constitutional
righits at the behest of the court.
"lit is most unjust to accuse the
strikers of damage to property. I do
not know 5f any acts of violence,-on'
the part of the strikers that were de
liberate. I suspect, for there are hisH
tonfal precedents to bear out, that pri
vate, detective agencies or agents of the
government have been inflaming these,

Britain's , Action
In Ousting Counsel
Resented in Capital
(By LnlTersal Serrtee)
Washington, Sept. 2. Feeling ran
high in administration and congres
sional circles today against the action
of Great Britain in summarily dismiss
ing American Consul Fred C. Slater
andi Vice Consul Russell M. Brooks at
Newcastle.
Itj was stated at the "White House
andi repeated in other administration
quarters that so far no sufficient case
has. been made out against the consu
lar officials and that for the present
the j American consulate at Newcastle
will remain closed.
The attitude of members of the
house and senate, as outlined by Rep
resentative Carl R. Chinblom' of Illi
nois, is that the efforts of Slater and
Brooks in the interest of the Ameri
can merchant marine, "far from being
reprehensible, were entirely -"praiseworthy."
BRITISH SHIPPING CIRCLES
; BUMF.lt FOR COSSIL KICK
By Ralpn H. Turner
T'nited News staff ( Vrrp-ixnclent. )
Lpndon, Sept. 2. Withdrawal of the
exequaturs of the American consul and
vice-consul at N'ewcastle-on-Tyne. is
an incident according to American
shipping circles it London, represents
a new and determined phase of the
Anglo-American shipping war and the
British struggle to maintain passenger
carrying supremacy on the Atlantic
and hold down the growing influence of
American vessels :n the trans-Atlantic
trade.
J. C. Kennedy, Kuropean passenger
agent of the United States lines, with
headquarters at London, denied to the
United News that there is any agree
ment between the United States ship
ping board arid American consuls for
solicitation of tra.ffic for American
ships.
"British shipping .-ompanles, worried
and aroused over the growing traffic
handled by' American steamers, are
attempting to check ' ur increasing hold
on trans-Atlantic business, which is
evidenced by the fact that all United
States steamers are booked up until
the er.d of October." Kennedy said.
Several leading British steamship
companies the United News learned,
protested to the British board of trade,
regarding the alleged coercion of ap
plication of passport visas at the con
sul's office at Newcastle.
British steamships interests went to
the foreign office with complaints, it
is learned. On the whole it is apparent
that British shippers are responsible
in a large measure for the withdrawal
of the exequaturs of the two American
consular representatives.
Meantime responsible American
sources indicate that American govern
mental agencies are standing pat
