 Freight Clerks
OUTLOOK IS THAT IT WILL BE-
 COME EFFECTIVE TODAY.
ONLY TWO QUESTIONS
They Involve the Right of the Com pany to Classify It's EmpIoyes- Strike Hour Set at p. m. Today.

New Haven, Conn.,, June 21. - No action on the question of ordering a Str1e of freight clers on the New For, New Haven and Hartford Railroad was taken this afternoon by the brotherhood committee which has conducted negotiations with General Manager c. L. Bardo of the company in regard to certain grievances which the clerks in freight houses claim to have had over interpretation of their working agreement. The outlook to- night was that strike, if called, will not be made effective until some time tomorrow.
 Forester Called Away.
 John J. Forester, national vice president of the brotherhood, was called away from the meeting and left town, the explanation being that he was required to smooth out trou- ble at certain points. The exact ma ture Of this trouble was not stated but explanation was made that some of the clerks have become restive over delay in calling a strike and have been worried over conflicting rumors about the situation. At the clerks s headquarters here it was stated that Forester returned. He Is expected to be in New Haven again in the morn ing.
 Strike Committee of Five.
 The committee which was met to- day was made up of twenty members one each from the twenty lodges on the system. After discussing the sit uation it was decided to place the conduct of a strike, should one be ordered. with a committee of five and the other members were directed to return to their respective stations to await orders.
 The recent ballot taken among the clerks showed that 1600 had voted to invest Mir. Forester with full pow CT to act. This power of calling a strike has been delegated to the clerks committee and by it to the executive, or strike committee.
 Statement of Clerks Is Probable.
 If a strike order is issued it prob ably will be accompanied by state ment giving the clerks side of the controversy.
 R. G. Stearns, chairman of the brotherhood committee in the absence of MT. Forester tonight, said that no statement would be issued No communication came from MT. Bardo and no word came from the confer ence of the officers and committees of the BrOtherhOOdS of Engineers.
