This Is Opinion of Those Close to Administration
 in Washington
SITUATION TO ENSUE
 IS WORSE THAN WAR
If Trainmen and Enginemen Chiefs Are Successful in Their Plans Disastrous Industrial Cata-
 cIysm Will Follow
By HUGH W. ROBERTS

Washington, March b. Special. The leaders of the railroad employees brother hoods, to-wit, l.. K. Sheppard, W. G. Lee, w. s. Stone and w. s. Carter, are apparently more inimicable to the peace and happiness of the United States than the German army and navy.
 This is the view of official Wash ington on the eve of what is promised to be the greatest and most disastrous industrial cataclysm in the history of the country. It is the local belief that if the brotherhood chiefs are able to carry out their plans more distress will be wrought to the people of the United States than were this govern ment actually at war with formida- ble foreign power.
 The plans of the chiefs would result in a freight and passenger railroad strike to be initiated Saturday morning and perfected by Wednesday night. The la mentable consequences to the people of the country can easily be imagined.
 SUPREME COURT SCORNED
 It is the opinion of those close to the administration that the brotherhood lead CTS are making dismal mistake, one which will cost them whatever popular approval and support they acquired last fall. The contention of the chiefs is that
