4 veteran politician yesterday
whether the fact caused Mr.. Whites

suit OF family joke. Is not known, but
such Is n fact. To be sure there has
been but one governor. (MacCorkle),
whose top-knot equnlled Whites In

WICHITA, Kas., Dec. ls.--oplnions
tonight on the likelihood of the Santa
Fc ctrainnen going out on 9. .sympathetic
strike differ. Superintendent Tica, OF
the Oklahoma division OF the road. says
such talk Is nonsense and declares that
the operators strike Is history. Opera
tors here are still hopeful. 1t might be
said, confident, Of winning the strike
and they laugh at the statement OF Mr..
Tlce that he has operators at every sta
tion on his division save two and rattle
off their tongues end u list OF more than
4 dozen stations where there are no
operators. Something will happen to-
morrow. they assert. At Norwich to-
day they say that non union operator
showed the white feather and left town.
He was the second non-unlun man to
leave the key this week. the previous
one Joining the strikers voluntarily.
Superintendent Tice says:
Nothing in the Strike.
NO one knows better than the traIu-
men that there Is nothing In the opera
tors strlke--not even tho scmblance OF
Justification. I am In very close touch
with the tralnmen of the division and
the claim that they are sincerely In
sympathy with the o. r. T. strikers is
superlatlvelyg absurd"
Continuing, he said: 1':
Two small stations are without oper-
ators, but not because we cannot get
men to supply them. We have agents
there that are sufficient for all the pur-
poses of the stations. Our trains are
coming In and going out In better shape
than before the strike. In most OF our
stations. operators, as we have found
out since the strike began. are moro OF
n convenience than necessity. Many
Of our old. operators. say 80 per cent OF
them, would like TO come back, and a
great number have asked to come back.
but 1t is out OF the question. In many
pieces, especially at the smaller sta
tions, they are securing signatures of
- 4iss'
for their reinstatement.
No Sympathetic Strike Expected.
":rhe only trouble we are experience
ipg from the strike now is the clerical
time sacrificed in receiving applications
for reiutatement."
Yardmaster Thomas Peters, Of New
ton, speaking to an Associated Press
correspondent tonight. said:
II am member Of the Switchmen's
and Tralnmen's Union, At 6 o'clock
this morning received dispatch from
the Switchmen's general office. stating
that they are not interested in the o. r.
T. strike and not considering the ques-
tion OF a sympathetic strike. At Z
O'Clock l had similar message from
the general office OF the trainmen's
union. like Dolphin personally, but I
think he has taken about 1000 operators
out on a limb and can never get them
back."
