WOULD AFFECT BIG
PART OF COUNTRY
Proposed FIremen'S Strike Gov
ers Eighteen States.

New York, Feb. 1S.--Reports that
both the railroad managers and the
representatives of their locomotive
firemen and engineers in the East had
practically given up the hope of set
tling their long discussed differences
over wages and working conditions,
developed considerable speculation
among New Workers as to the extent
OF their strike. To the country at
large, according to the tiremen, the
strike would mean practical tieup OF
railroad business. because the fifty
four -reilrossl@-~ia ia-4tha. zone AFFECTED
east of the Mississippi and north OF
the Ohio river, serve the most densely
populated section of the United States.
There are eighteen states in the
zone OF the threatened strike. The
mileage of the fifty-four railroads in
volved Is approximately $4,000 miles.
The firemen. practically all OF whom
claim 20 be members of the brother
hood whose vote had brought the sit
uation to q crisis, number over 35. 900
men. It is declared that practically
every man firing locomotive in the
Eastern territory will obey a strike
order. The vote of the firemen on the
strike question was recorded as 32,l7S
In favor of the strike as compared
with 1.19S against ii.
A statement issued by the railroad
manager says that the railroads in
yolyed serve over 50,009,000 persons,
or over half the population of the
United States. These railroads en-
ploy, all told, approximately 6SO,0O0
men and women, large number OF
whom would be in state of enforced
idleness in the event OF a firemen's
strike actually causing trains to stop
running.
