RUSSIAN CHALLENGES CZECH
koIchak General Sends "Carter" to
Chief of Allied Army

Irltutsk, Dec. 25.-(By "A. P.)--De :
layed-As result of n new outburst
of i'll feeling between the Czechs and
Russians, following an exchange. of re.
ordinations by Admiral Kolchak, head
of the All Russian Government, and
DR.. Valda Girsa. Czecho- -Slovak com :
missioner in Siberia, General Kappel'
commander in chief of the western
armies of the All Russian Government,
has challenged General Syroyy, com
manding the Czechs, to a duel.
The Russians charge the Czechs with
high handed actions in requisitioninG
locomotives, thereby enabling the Bol F..
sheviki to capture 120 trains. General
Semenoff, the Cossack anti BolsheviS
leader in Siberia, on the other hand, is
said to be blocking the evacuation of the
Czechs and has sent a message to
Doctor Grsa. imploring the Czechs to
support their brother Slavs.
Social revolutionary elements have
formed a government Mt Tcheromkova
These elements are becoming aggressive
and it would cause no surprise If an
attempt were made to overthrow the
Kolchak regime.

Cummins bill was passed by both
branches Of Congress, not by one.
"When the roads were taken over by
the government the employees were
free" Mr.. Johnston said, ''and we
propose that IL they are turned back to
private owenrship, the employees shall
be equally free. There is no necessity
for such drastic legislation as is pro
vided for in the Cummins bill. There
never has been general railroad strike
and there never will be in my opinion. J"
So far as labor officials nre advised
they will not be given another hearing
by Senate or House committees, but
they will keep up the fight against the
anti strike section, it was said, and
appeal finally to President Wilson to
veto the bill If it should be enacted
with that clause intact.
President Johnston said that no other
trades that would be affected by the
anti strike section of the bill have taken
vote, so far as he had been advised.

tion compulsory and labor has generally
opposed compulsory arbitration.
As a penalty for a strike which had
the approval of the union chiefs and
which took in substantially all of any
class of railroad workers the blacklist
would be absurd. 1t would be impossi
Bile to blacklist all the engineers of the
railroads of the country for four months,
if there were any intention to operate
the roads during that time.
In the case of strikes not authorized
by the union chiefs, like the strike of
some shopmen in the West this fall. the
blacklist might be effective. 1t might
even operate to sustain the authority of
the brotherhood chiefs and make these
smaller outlaw strikes less frequent.
But it will probably prove Objectionable
to organized labor.
AS it is not more practicable as a
means of preventing the really import
ant strikes than are injunctions or penal
statutes, it is not likely to have much
support from the administration nor
from the railroad executives.

said the vote was taken before the

that the result was not officially pub
lishcd because the association did not
want to appear in the attitude of
attempting TO threaten Congress.
The macbinists' membership is around
800 900, but not more than 1851 of
this number are employed on railroads.
