RAIL EMPLOYEES
APPEAL TO COURT
Want Order to Prevent Brother.
hoods From Calling Strike
in That State
(ASSOciated PresS)

Philadelphia, March ia bill in
equity which has for its purpose the
prevention of the four railroad BROTH
erhoods from calling strike of rail-
road employees, within the state Of
Pennsylvania, was filed in the feder-
al district court today by an attorney
representing the four brOtherhoOds.
No Judge was in the federal building
at the time. and although the bill is
officially on file, it will not have the
effect of preventing walkout unless
the papers are signed by a Judge and
an order issued enjoining the men.
Take Usual Course.
Leighton P. Stradley, attorney for
the men who filed the bill, said the
action would take the usual course y
He apparently is making no effort to
find Judge.
According to The trainmen, they be-
lieye not more than ten percent are
in favor of walking out. The bill al
leges that the joint ballot upon which
the strike was called. is not in effect
at this time inasmuch as it was OBJ
tanned eight months ago when times
were not at the critical stage they are
today. This strike ballot obtained
eight months ago was cancelled last
fall, when the Adamson law was en-
acted, the bill asserts.
