Of the Southern Railway in

a strike, Saturday evening at
9 o'clock being the hour OF

cite several instances OF bru~

covering several months and
claim that they made a num-
Der of complaints concerning
Norman's conduct and over
lures to the master mechanic
for an abatement Of the dis
agreeableness Of the foreman,
or his removal. The master
mechanic did not see matters
as the machinistsdid, and re
lying upon the contract with
the machinists' union, which
provides a specific procedure
before a strike is called, ask
ed for proof Of the charges
and refused to remove Nor

1T is not in accordance with
the regular procedure OF the

action,' as stated by a union
official, the strike was order
ed nevertheless.

their agreement with the ma
chinists' union and their will

agreed to take the matter be-
