said the strike proclamation involved
the entire railroad system and other
land transportation OF Holland and
the water transport OF the ports OF

The strike. he added. was intended
as protest against the antl-strike
laws as well as TO support the demand
Of the railroad men for an increase OF

The president also said the strike
would extend To other branches OF
labor.
The stans OF the shipping compan.
