s TRAFFIC
BREAKING DOWN
BY MEN s STAND
Refusal of Railway Employ
eS to Garry Munitions,
Armed Soldiers or Police
Is Paralyzing Travel.
Especial correspondents to The Journal,

Especial Correspondence to The Jonrnal.l
Dublin, Dec. 1.-THE whole
traffic of the country is now APP
preaching crisis owing to the re-
fusal of the railwaymen to carry
munitions or armed soldiers or po-
lice and the consequent suspension
or dismissal in each case of the
drivers and guards who refused.
The gradual depletion of the staffs
has reached a point at which there
are not enough men to work all the
lines and some of them have been
closed.
Daily soldiers present themselves
as passengers and are refused
leading to the dismissal OF more
men. In less than a month this is
expected to lead to the closing
down of all the lines, with the ex-
ception of the Great Northern,
which is worked by railway men
who. though belonging to the
Trades union, have declined to
share in what they regard as an
anti British political demonstra-
ton.
The business community views
the prospect with alarm. The gov
eminent is determined to insist on
the railways carrying all traffic,
and has threatened that, if they do
not do so, the subsidy which an
ables the dividends to be paid may
cease. This has disturbed the rail-
way shareholders who include
plenty of Sim Feiners who sym
pathize politically with the anti
munitions policy of the men. Al
ready the farmers in western Ire
land cannot get their cattle to the
eastern ports for transmission 10
england. Traders have difficulty
in transmitting merchandise
Everybody is hit and the aues-
ton is raised whether the demon
stration is worth all it costs. some
of the newspapers who encouraged
the men to resist are now inviting
them to reconsider the position on
the ground that it has not hurt the
government at all, and may ruin
Ireland.
The mems leaders remain firm,
and are supported by Sim Fem
opinion.
Everybody is seeking for a way
out and a formula that would save
everybody's face is eagerly search
ed for.
