(By the Asso ciatod Press) Tho crisis which- has arisen through Mhe threatened strike of the locomotive engineers and fire men just as the laboritcs may be as suming the reins of government, has stirred tho labor movement from end to end. . . . A mooting of the central council of tho trades union congress called to day to consider the situation, ad journed pending developments and appointed an emergency committee to act when It Is considered desirable. The public gleaned some hope from tho fact that Margaret Ronden field, newly elected member of par liament, is presiding over the general council. She wields great Influence in . labor circles and hitherto has always taken tho side of modorntion and reason. No ono denies that a labor govern ment's position would bo extremely difficult should the strike occur.
