STATEMENTS OF EMPLOYERS AND
MEN

Both sides issued what appeared to
be their last statements to the pub
lie in justification of their actions.
The railway presidents summarized
the important points developed by their
deliberations as follow:
"A renewed insistence upon the prin
'irle of arbitration as the only proper
- thod of settling labor disputes
AN increased realization of the re-
sponsibility of the railroads toward
their other employees. the shippers the
Industrial. commercial and general pub
lie. which they have been made to feel
by thousands of kilograms insisting
upon the maintenance of their posi-
ton"
The brotherhoods expressed their un-
alterablo opposition to President Will
sons plan to compel public investiga-
ton in a statement signed by Garrett
son. Stone. Carter and Lee, which said
Since the abolition Of slavery no
more effectual means has been devised
for insuring the bondage of the work
ingman than tho passage of the COM
pulsory investigation acts of the char
acter of the Canadian industrial dis
putes act"
The issue Of these two statements
was the formal announcement of the
final positions of two great forces. i'm :
movable and still deadlocked after two
weeks of intorcession and negotiation
by the President of the United States

ploYes cannot afford to strike, they
have not overlooked any element OF
preparation for the strike order.
Provision has been made to police

the great eastern systems. where the
brotherhoods are particularly strong
The roads will fight a strike individ-
ually and not collectively.
The railroad presidents and manag-
ers who remain here viii continue CON
sideration of plans to meet the strike
situation. but will watch Congress and
the brotherhood chiefs.
brotherhood heads declined to make
any statement further than that they
would fight compulsory Investigation
Their opposition to the eight-hour day
plan Is based on the ground that il
does not approach their present de-
mands. They want the eiEht-hour day
but along with it they want their pres
ent ten hours pay. AS Congress is no,
empowered to regulate wages. but may
only regulate huurs of labor in inter
