ciliation, which was called in fails
to adjust the differences between the
railroads of the country and their
100000 employees President Wilson
will be asked to use his personal in

be the last resort and would be taken
only to save the nation from the trade
paralysis that would follow a strike
of the magnitude planned by the rail
road men.
Six hours after the railroad man

that they would not withdraw their
formal rejection of the workers de.
