New York, July 31.-Thomas p.
Fowler, president of the Ontario g. West
ern, made the following statement con-
cerning the strike situation:
We have been held up twice within four
years. Surrender, or even arbitration, means
the absence OF order and future discipline.
We propose to protect the public and our
companies from periodical attacks. financial
loss and great inconvenience. When the mine
workers realize that they are not to be sup
ported In idIeness for any length Of time
they will return in a body, and that time
cannot be long deferred. The strike leaders
are making every effort to keep the men out,
and are having some dificulty in doing SO.
!! After the men return to work I believe
legal steps will be taken in the United States
courts against those who are responsible for
the loss oceasioned by this strike. -. 4
