OMAHA, Aug. BOA temporary in Junction, restraining the general and local officials of the Order of Railway Conductors from calling or enforcing q strike on the lines of the Union Pacific railroad was issued by Judge Willis G. Sears of the district court of Douglas county, here today. Sat urday morning, September ?, was set for a hearing on whether the injunc ton shall be made permanent.
 Application for the injunction was made by Edwin A. Hamilton, em- ploye of the Union Pacific, and d member of the Order of Railway Conductors. The suit filed by Ham, ilton names the national and local officials of the Order of Railway Con- ductors as defendants.
 In his petition Hamilton asserts the strike order is a violation of the con- stitution of the conductors organiza- tion, which provide for a two-thirds vote on any road where a strike is to he callde. A change in this provision last May so that a tWO-thirdS vote of all concerned in a general wage movement governs employees Of all railroads violates the constitution ol the order. Hamilton claims.
 Hamilton's petition alleges conduc- tors would not be benefited bv a strike but that he "and others slml larly situated" would either lose their sceniority rights and pensions as em- ployes of the railroad or their mem berships in the brotherhood.
