PS8 SlX - "Eke Capital Journal. Salens. Oretti Thursday, October 21, Final Effort Made To Avert Rail Strike Chicago, Oct. 27. Bn W. Hooper, public member of the rail road labor board, this morning went to a meeting of chief of the big fire railroad brotherhoods and their executive committees In the Masonic temple to make a final plea to call off the railroad strike get for next Sunday. The board's proposal to the brotherhood lead ers was said to be assurance of no more cuts nor rule change until periling cases were disposed of. Mr. Hooper was accompanied by A. F. Whitney, vice-president of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen. Mr. Hooper said before going to the meeting room that hie was hiking the call unofficially and that he had "a vague possibility" for a settlement In mind, which he would outline to the union men. More than 200 union men were assembled when the two railroad labor board" members arrived. The meeting was arranged by Walter I. McMenlmen, labor mem ber of the board, and a former of ficial of the trainmen's organiza tion. McMenlmen, however, did not accompany Hooper and Wbll ney to the ball. There has been much discussion In union and railroad circles as to the possibility of the railroad la bor board's putting out an order that the strike is Illegal and order ing ft called off. Board members would not dis cuss the report this forenoon ex cept to say no such order had been prepared. "I was not sent by the board, but went of my own volition," Mr. Hooper said, in explaining his vis it to (he meeting. "I still believe that the only basis of settlement is the resolution adopted by the board the other day." The resolution referred to urged the men to call off the strike and give the board a chance to act on all wage and rule changes that may be brought before It. Blanton Keeps (Continued from Page On.,) reasons for what the house was called upon to do, "the publication which Is the basis of the charge is of such a character that It can not be presented on the floor." Mr. Mondell characterized the objectionable words in the affida vit Inserted in trie Congressional Record by Blanton as "unspeak ably vile, foul, filthy, profane. blashpemous and obscene. f?he language used wolud subject one now mailing It to five years in Jail." Printed Profane Word. Mr. Mondell said he knew of no instance where a member, exer cising the right of leave to print, published profane or obscene mat ter In the Congressional Record. Crowded galleries were on hand when the resolution was brougtu up, many of the visitors being wo men, who, expecting a protracted row, had brought their lunches. Mr. Blanton entered the cham ber a moment before the chaplain's prayer and took his accustomed seat on the second row. r In r,ir,i .rf' hig speech Mr. 'Mondell declared: "Men do some things In eager1 for which we forgive them. Men comlmt crimes under sudden, un controllable Impulse, for which we must be lenient. Mr. Speaker, this Is a crime against the house. Its dignity, Its honor It Is a crime against decency, against ev ery law and usage of clvlli'.ed man, done deliberately, on purpose. without regard to law or for the honor of this house."
