and the railroad men in 1915 and
1917.
A request for an eight-hour day
and time and a half overtime caused
the Intervention Of President Will
son. who suggested that the railroads
grant the eight-hour day. without
extra overtime. Although the broth
erhoods favored tho proposal. the
railway officials rejected it and a
national strike was called for Sep
tember 4.
BY September 2. Congress passed
the Adamson oight-hour law. which
temporarily averted the strike But
the federal district court OF Kansas
declared the law unconstitutional.
After continued controversy. the
railroad brotherhoods again called a
strike TO begin March IL, 1917
The government intcrvened aEair
and was able 10 hold up the strike
two DAYS until the federal suprem'
court declared the Adamson law
constitutional and the eight-houi
law went into effect.
The strike Of 1919 was over the
]
form with the rising cost OF living
on August /. Chicago's railroad
shopmen walked out and were later
followed by the men in New York
and Boston. About $4,000 men
stopped work and a general strike
over the nation was threatened.
I But on promise OF President VIII
son OF a slight increase In pay and
his request for delay until the coun-
| Try could come back 20 normal the
men gradually returned 10 work.
on April 2, 1920. against the or
dcrs Of the brotherhood officials
6 600 switchmen in the Chicago yards
walked out. They we're dissatisfied
with tho way the government de-
layed fulfilling its promise TO help the
men by reducing the cost Of Twins
or bringing about some sort OF re.
lief. They wanted a higher wage
Tho brotherhood officials immedi-
ately "outlawcd" these strikers. Blu
tho strike spread throughout th'
country.
The strike caused a temporary
partial tie-up in transportation. bu
the railroad brotherhoods were sooI
able to get the trains running regu
larly through the aid Of their loya
employees. Tho "outlawed" striker
sought reinstatement. but this wa.
refused at the convention N III
