ISSUES WARNING
AGAINST STRIKES
DIRECTOR GENERAL McADOO
ACTS TO PREVENT TROUBLE
ON RAILWAYS.
MEN WORK FOR GOVERNMENT
Telegram to Heads of All Labor Un-
ions Having Shopmen Among Their
Members Gives Notice Govern.
ment Cannot Be Coerced.

Washington, May 31.-Railroad
employees were reminded by Director
General McAdoo that they are en-
ployes Of the United States in time
of war aid that a strike means a
blow at their own government and
the hampering of transportation es-
sential to protect the hundreds of
thousands Of American boys fighting
on the battlefelds Of Europe.
In a telegram to the heads of all
labor unions having shop men among
their members, Mr.. McAdoo gave no
tice that the government cannot be
coerced or intimated and called upon
railroad men to remain at their duty
and rely upon him and the new board
on railroad wages and working con-
ditions for just consideration of their
claims. He asked the union leaders
to. urge upon their men by wire the
wisdom and patriotism Of this course.
Threats of Walkouts.
A few days ago several hundred ma.
chinists and shopmen at Alexandria,
Va, left their posts in Southern rail-
road shops in protest against small
increases given them under the direc-
tor generals new scale of higher
wages, and there have been threats
of general walkout or union shop
men net Monday unless substantial
further pay advances are forthcoming
before that time.
"The strike of certain shipmen, ma
chinists, etc., in the railroad shops at
Alexandria, Va, has created a very
painful expressssH on the public
mind" said the director generals mes
sage. 81 cannot believe that these
men knew what they were doing. They
are all employees now of the United
States government. They are not en-
ployes of any corporation, therefore
this was a strike against the govern
ment Of the United States. =,
"This is the first time in the history
of our government that any of its
employees have attempted a strike
against their government. Such action
is incredible. For the good Of our be-
loved country and for the honor Of
railroad men in the service every
where I hope there will be no repeti-
ton of what everyone must condemn
as unpatriotic in the highest degree
"The government cannot. Of course,
be coerced or intimidated by any Of
it's employees. It is anxious to do JUS
tice and will do justice to all, as far
as it is possible to measure Justice"

SALVAGE OF WASTE FOR
RED CROSS ADVOCATED
lAmerieap Civic Association Plans Ma
tion-wide Drive to Promote


Washington, May 31.-Salvage Of
waste to aid in meeting the demands
for raw materials caused by the de-
struction of war is advocated by the
American Civic association in state
ment made public by the salvage
committee of the organization.
It is suggested that money realized
from the sale Of waste materials be
turned over to the Red Cross and the
Y. M. C. A. war work fund. Not alone
will such a practice inculcate habits
OF thrift, which will be valuable after
the war, but during the war it will
tighten the drain upon transportation
facilities and lower the prices of raw
materials, says the statement.
Local organizations to carry out the
plan will be formed throughout the
United States, similar to the commit
tees now operating in Los Angeles,
Kansas City and other cities.
