Bridgeport Expressmen
 Do Not Favor Strike

An officer of Local No. 9. Order of Railway Expressmen of Hartford, predicts that there will be an ex- pressman strike along the lines of the New Haven road from New York to Boston within a week or two, just as the annual Christmas rush begins.
 An old time employe at the Bridge port office said today, q don't think the Bridgeport drivers and handlers will go out on strike. They have been approached by the organizers and they have turned them down. All of the men in Bridgeport favor the orr gan:zation of a union. and believe they need it. But the concensus of opinion among them is that an or ganization formed on the eve of a strike would not stand. They believe that Bridgeport would furnish a num- Der of members to the union.
 "But they state tha, they believe that organization should be able to make demands and win withou, striking if the issue is properly presented. In case of a strike I believe the majority of the employees in this city would re- main at work"
