reached. The union representatives
intimated that their plans already nad
been made. President McCreery is
sued statement that the nine crafts
in the federation had turned matters
over to the International officers and
would await their action.
The letter from President Markham
of the Illinois Central road to Secre-
tary Kramer of the international union
says, in part:
Never before in the history Of our
dealings with labor organizations have
we been asked to change contracts ex-
therein, viz: That the thirty days for
NAL notice which has always been re-
garded as an essential feature OF same,
be given.
The required thirty days notice
not having been given in the manner
provided in each of the different con
tracts, we regard them as still in eff
feet and must again decline to enter
into negotiations with other agencies
for the purpose of making changes
therein.
THE paramount interest in this con-
troversy is that of the shipping and
travelling public; and being convinced
that it is the ultimate purpose of the
federation to consolidate railroad sery-
ice employees into one organization, the
management does not feel that public
opinion would sustain it in entering
into an agreement which would place
in the hands of one body the power to
throttle the commerce of the coun-
try"
When a copy of the letter was shown
to President McCreery he dictated the
following statement:
IF this letter is authentic, it is very
evident to us that the officials of the
Illinois Central are seeking to force
the issue prematurely. That could be
the only conclusion to draw from
such a communication"
