NeW Rail Strike M MexicO Aftermath General WaLkOut
 BeLieUed to Be Threatened
(By International News service)

MEXICO CITY, Nov 1. Another strike of workmen on the railroads of Mexico is threatened. If the strike is declared it will be the most peculiar strike on record. It will be a walkout of union men" and "scabs."
 The trouble is due to the general strike early this year, When that strike was settled the government took back the strikers and kept the men who had helped to break the strike. This doubled the railroad pay rolls and added a new great problem to the man with which the Obregon government is graphing
 PAY DAY IRREGULAR
 Because there are so many pressing uses for the money flowing into the national treasury it has not been pos sible to meet the heavy railroad pay roll with exact regularity. Some of the workmen have been compelled to wait. And this is the grievance which may cause the new strike The work. men say that they will walk out unless they get their full wages without fur ther delay.
 The discontented include the old men who were taken back and the new men who helped to break the February strike Many of the men

 GENERAL STRIKE LOOMS
 There are also threats of a general strike in Mexico City All unions have warned employers that their members will walk out unless strikes in several factories, which have been going on for some time are settled. This and other indications of unrest in labor circle are causing uneasiness.
 Until recently labor disputes were much less frequent than they were a year ago, and optimists were disposed to think that Mexico was going to set an example to the world in maintain ing industrial tranquility. But now the agitation for strikes has been renewed with vigor.
 Among others. the employees of the street railways of the city are talking of strike It is said that such a strike might prove disastrous to labor. The railway company is losing heavily through the competition of innumer- able "jitneys" and yet keeps three men employed on almost every car. It is said that a strike would result in a re- duCtion in the number of employees and that this reduction would be per manent.
