thousands Of telegrophers IN the ten
Southeastern states affected:
JACKSON, Miss, June 5.-Konen-
kamps strike order will meet with lit
tie or no response in this state. No
attention has been paid to it thus far
by operators here, though they admit
having received the order Most of the
operators at the local Western Union
Offices are women, and few if any of
them belong to the telegraphers' union.
All are standing by their keys.
'CHMOND, Va, June 5-Early to-
night union telegraph operators here
had failed to leave their instruments.
and company officials asserted that
only about 10 per cent of their oper-
ators were unionists affected by the
konenkamp order.
Members OF the union state that
more than 60 per cent of the employees
'here are affiliated with the union and
that as soon as an official order is re-
ceived from local officers they will
walk out. Reports from throughout
the state were of similar nature, it
being stated that the majority of work
ers are awaiting local orders before
leaving their posts.
ATLANTA, Ga, June 5.-Telegrams
ordering 5000 employees of the West
orN Union to strike at once were
flashed tonight from Atlanta to all

mately so per cent of the local West
ern Union force of telegraph opera
tors will leave their keys tomorrow
morning in compliance with President
Konenkamp's order calling out West

raphers and telephone operators who

tions in this city are holding them

lively with this matter. president
Charles p. Mullen and Dwight B.

mittee and former president Of the
National Livestock association
Mr. Mullen said that a question q
great moment is that OF the passaEe
by congress OF a law providing for
the control and use OF the public do
main by stock raisers- ITO my mind,
this is one OF the most vital questions
before this convention. II has been
demonstrated conclusively that 20 OBJ
tain the maximum production OF meat.
there must be some control OF the IN
appropriated public domain"
Sheepmen EnerOachinE.
He mentioned the fact that sheep
men, especially in the south central
part OF the state, are encroaching on
the cattle ranges. President Mullen
said data was being compiled TO make
proper recommendations TO congress.
Mr.. Heard voiced an appeal for fed

panies. He said:
There is an urgent need for the
elimination OF unnecessary traders in
handling beef cattle for the market
Let this system be simplified under a
method Of federal licensing. Euaran-
teeing a standard and satisfactory
service 10 the producers. Not only is
II necessary TO have the marketing
and slaughterinE OF cattle free from
manipulation and speculation. but
some practical plan should be
worked out for the distribution OF
meat TO the consumer on a simpler
basis, with a saving effected which
eventually would reduce the price OF
meat 10 the people"

Washington, D. c, Feb. 12.-The
right OF railroad employees to strike
viii be insisted upon under govern
ment ownership, A. B. Garretson.
president Of the Order OF Railroad
Conductors. said today in reply to
questions OF senator Cummins. OF
Iowa, during his examination on rail-
road problems before the senate COM
merce committee.
Sharp opposition TO the govern
ment's present policy toward Organiza-
ton OF its employees was expressed by
Mr.. Garretson. who opposed the mini
mum wage as method Of settling the
wage question. He proposed wages
should be determined by a tribunal
balanced so that no one interested
element could dispose OF the ques-
ton"
@Anti-Bolshevflz Sentiment
AIr Garretson suggested, as "a piece
OF nti-Bolshevik sentiment" that the
tyranny Of one class would ever be
less than the tyranny Of the other.
Referring 10 the Seattle strike, the
witness declared local labor unions
there had acted in opposition TO their
national officers and asserted that
whenever unions will break away
from the domination Of their chiefs.
