CHICAGO, October 17.-An 2ltera-

for a progressive national strike of
railroed employees, ordered to begin
on October so. gives the eastern states
at least two days of grace before the
proposed walkout would become ef-
fective TN that region. The Pennsyl-
vania and the Erie roads, included
originally in the first group on which
the strike was ordered, were re-
moved from that list, thus excluding
at the start all states east of Chicago
and north of the Ohio river.
These changes were said by union
leaders to complete assignment of
roads to the first group on which
walkouts would take place, and the
following was made known as the Of
ficfal list of carriers in that group:
Kansas City Southern, Missouri Pa

While no official informa ton was
forthcoming as to what group the
Pennsylvania lines would be placed
in, it was understood that they would
be assigned to group 3. on Whlch tne
ralkoI,ts are scheduled to start No
yember 5. All walkouts are sched-

Another catastrophe of that sort

and freight rates should come to a

or by alternating stages.
'Jt must be understood that there

merce Commission in the premises.
I'm this connection. it may be in
formative to the public to know what
factors the transportation act re-
quires the Labor Board to consider in
fixing wages. They are as follows:
"G) The scale of wages paid for
similar kinds Of work in other indus

of responsibility, co the character
and regularity Of employment, CD the
inequalities of increases in wages or
of treatment. the result of previous
wage orders or adjustments. Other
relevant circumstances are also to
be considered.
"Condensing the foregoing sugges-
tions into definite propositions. they
stand as follows:
q. Let the carriers Immediately
give a general rate reduction meas
ured by the July wage reduction and
the benefits derived from the new
rules; and devised under the super
vision of the Interstate Commerce
Commission, to afford the greatest
degree of relief to the public.
"2. Let the request for further wage
reductions be Withdrawn until the
rate reductions have been completed
"3. At such time as the carriers
deem advisable. let them present to
the Railroad Labor Board their petit
ton for further reduction in wages.
based upon conditions then existing.
~. Pending the working oue of the
rate reduction and the action of the
Labor Board on such petition for a
further wage reduction as the car
riers may subsequently submit, let
the strike order be withdrawn

Despite the insistence of union Of

wage matter, but refused to say DEF
initely that he would try to hold back
his men.
The differences over the advisa-
bility of a strike have arisen prima-
rily through failure of the brother
hoods and the other eleven to reach
a satisfactory agreement on the du-
ration of the strike. labor leaders
said. One union president said that
while he was certain the brothe rhoods
would have the support of the others
in the actual walkout. the heads of
the eleven organisations were not
pledged to stay out after tnelr ar
ferences were settled, and might re-
turn to work whenever they saw
fit. Another official said that it was
feared the brotherhoods might re-
turn to work and leave the un-
skilled workers holding the bag"
Not Always in Harmony.
The brotherhoods are not members
of the American Federation of Labor,
while the shop crafts organizations
are. and it is because of this fact
that they have not always worked
actually opposing each other, accord
ing to union men.
While these differences of opinion
are being discussed informally among
the union heads preliminary to the
formal meeting this week. prepara-
among all of the organizations. From
the meeting in Cleveland tomorrow
the organizations meeting here later
expect to have word as to just how
far the brotherhoods would go In
standing by them through strike
if they joined in the proposed walk
out. and on this decision will rest the
attitude of shop crafts and similar
unions, it is believed.
From the railroads assurances con-
tinued to come that strike would
mot tie up transportation. while in
asserted that there was little danger
/ to the rest of the larger industries
land virtually no chance of serious
Hood shortage, although the meat
hacking plants have very little sur

within three weeks after the start OF
IAN effective strike, according to their
officials.
Railroad Heads Meet.
Heads of all the railroads entering
Chicago met today in their regular
weekly meeting and went over the
!rail situation fully.
The brotherhoods made known last
might that they had revised the list
rof roads to which the first of series
the proposed progressive wa1kouts
would start so as to exclude the
F., Pennsylvania lines. the Erie railroad
and the Louisville and Nashville. This
tieaves no eastern roads to be affected
by the first walkout.
The walkouts are scheduled to take
place in four groups. one every forty
Ieight hours, starting at am, stand
ard time, October 80. Consequently
the east would not feel the strike
until at least November 1.
The roads to be included IN the
three other groups have not been de-
