STRIKE UNLIKELY
ON THE RAILROADS
SUCH Is BELIEF OF BILL LEE,
CHIEF OF TRAINMEN'S
ORGANIZATION
HOWEVER, MEN VOTE TO QUIT
ing Out, He Deciares-See Early
Cut in Rail Freight-Officiais
See Harding and Senators.

CLEVELAND, Ohio. Prediction
that there will be no general strike
on the part of the railroad brother
hoods is made by William G. Lee,
president of the Brotherhood of Rail
road Trainmen. Mr.. Lee based his
prediction ON his belief that "the av-
erage labor leader is not insane to the
extent Of not recognizing conditions
as they exist" Asked what he
thought of the likelihood of strike
on any one railroad, he replied that
he did not think it probable.
Lee returned here from Chicago
having supervised the canvass of the
strike vote of more than 100000 mem
bers of his organization taken in pro
test against the IL per cent wage re
uction ordered by the railroad labo,
board, effective July l.
SO Per Cent for Strike.
Mr.. Lee declined to join in the
strike balloting of the other brother
hoods in September, claiming nothing
could legally be included in such &
ballot according to the Esch-Cum
Minis law except the wage reduction
of July /, since the labor board hat
not made decision on other sub
jects mentioned in the joint ballot
Lee prepared and submitted a sep
arate ballot for the train and yart
men. The vote returned, he said, wa!
in excess of S8 per cent in favor of ;
strike, with the following provision
eve further request that our mem
bership on this railroad be authorized
to withdraw from service on the sam
day and hour that the membership O
either the Brotherhood of Locomotiy
Engineers, Order of Railway Cor
ductors, or Brotherhood Of Locomo
tive Firemen and Engineers of thi
road is authorized to stop work, a
a result of the vote taken by sue
organization in connection with tn
wage reduction of July l."
1.-The next move is up to the othe
organizations" Lee declared.

MEDAL HONORS
TIRES OF WAITING FOR BRITISH
GOVERNMENT TO TAKE
ACTION.
GIVES NO PARTICULAR REASON
American General Embarrassed by
Situation-His Party Mystified
Our Troops Returned
to Coblenz.

PARIS.-General Pershing will not
go to London to lay the congressional
medal on the tomb Of the British I'M
known soldier in Westminster abbey,
and if the ceremony is held, another
American officer will be designated
to represent the United States.
The announcement came Monday
from an authoritative source.
Lack of time available for the trip
between now and October 20, when
General Pershing sails for home is
the official explanation for his de-
cision to abandon his visit to England.
1t is learned, however, that failure OF
the British war office either to fix a
date for the ceremony or, until late
yesteray, to give any explanation for
not replying to repeated inquiries
from the American embassy officials
is the chief reason for General Per-
shing's decision.
British Told of Purpose.
General Pershing came to Europe
for the purpose OF laying the con
gressional medal ON the tombs of the
French and British unknown soldiers
The Washington government SO in
formed the British government early
in August and again when he sailel.
So. far as can be learned, no an
swer was received to either com
munication, which asked that date
be set for the ceremony and that
the general be informed.
Since his arrival in Paris, further
inquiries have geen made without
avail.
The especially trained battalion
from the American forces on the
Rhine, which acted as a guard Of
honor at the Paris ceremony ant
was to have proceeded to London
returned to Coblenz by special train
after having been held week il
Paris awaiting word from the British
foreign office.
Americans Mystified.
1t is known that American official:
in Paris as well as General Pershinf
and his party have been mystifiet
by the silence of the British govern
ment and the matter has caused mucf
embarrassment to the general.

HALT DEMURRAGE RAISE.
Carriers Withdraw Their Support
From Movement.

Any increase in demurrase charges
contemplated by the railroads has
been dropped. it has been learned at the
Interstate Commerce Commission. as
lhe carriers have withdrawn support
nom the movement to increase the
charges.
Failure of the railroads. to agree
on rates to large shippers is given as
the reason.
According to officials of the Inter-
state Commerce Commission the rail-
roads planned to increase demurrage
rates from 81 to So for each of the
first four days cars lay at sidings;
from IS to S. for the next three days,
and from S. to SO for each succeed
ing day.
The National Industrial Traffic
League at first gave the new sched-
ules its support. it is said. but in
dividual members protested to the
commission, with the result that the
rates were suspended from January /
TO May 1.
The commission had planned an in
vestigation of the rates, but the
action OF the railroads ends any
motion for increased charges.
