hat besides violating the laws of
he state they were taking great
'hanceS IN operating anothcfS ma
hine in the night and that such pro

possibility at the door of Pres dent

year after the men presented their
demands" and that it took the Presi-
dent 40 days to appoint railway
labor board after the Echs-Cummings
act had become law.
"We are here to discuss some way
of avoiding the danger because of
government delay npassng on our
wage demands" "Unless immediate

1t is not fair to other industry that such taxfree
