Only cne-half of the railroad workers
In the Eastern district who have been
ordered to strike actually will quit
work If the order is enforced by the
brotherhoods, the General Managers
Associated announced ye-terday at rs
Church Street. The information was
based on recent poll taken by twenty
five railroads to ascertain whether
their employees favored strike.
Railroad officials interpreted the re-
suit of the poll as an Indication that
the brotherhoods, with more than 400,-
600 members, would split. so far as
Eastern railroads are concerned, i the
conference before the Railroad Labor
Board in Chicago to-day fails to effect
an adjustment.
The railroad operatives met in re-.
sponse to call by r. M. Rine, general
manager Of the Lackawanna. The
twenty-five roads represented have pre-.
pared to continue oreration on schedule
both for freight and passenge- trains
regardless Of possible strike This,
it was said, would be possible because
OF the assurance of at least SO per cent
Of their employees that the strike order
would not be obcyed and Information
that thousands of railroad workers out
OF jobs are eager to take the places of
strikers. Many Of them already have
enrolled. They include hundreds who
lost their jobs during the OUTLAW"
strike of last year.

ULTRA RADICALS
LOSING OUT in
SOCIALIST MEET

Detroit, June 2S.-The Socialis,
party's attitude toward general and
political strikes and its attitude to-
ward organized labor was up for de.
cison by the national convention here
today Left wing rommunists. who SO
far have met defeat in all the issues
they have put forward offered a pro
rosal to use the political and general
strike as revolutionary weapon.
Centerist and right wing groups were
confident this PROPOSAL too would b.
defeated and predicted adoption OF
their own resolution which declared
the general strike TO be a weapon for
the exclusive use of labor organiza-
ticnc. The political strike. the reso-
luton declared, might lie used by
either 1abor or political parties to oh
tain passage or repeal OF legislation.
Present conditions in the United
States, the resolution added, made it
impossible for a political group to
call such strike.

Stromboli is volcano which is re-

outbreaks in recent years occurred in
1907 and 1915 The activity of the

Fog HnIiS ManeuYerS

Newport News, Va, June 2S-A
heavy fog outside the Virginia capes
is delaying the departure of seaplanes
from the Hampton Reads naval base
il their attempt to locate and theOr-
ctically sink the radio-controlled bat
tleship Iowa.
The Iowa is somewhere off the Vir-
ginia coast and at present is com
pletely obscured by fog, according to
Radio advices received at the air sta
ton.
Officials at the naval base further
stated that airplanes would no leave
until word had been received from
fleet officers outside that everything
was clear and the maneuvers official
ly declared in progress.
The maneuvers are designed to test
the ability of aircraft to stop an
enemy fleet, represented by the Iowa,
which will attempt to reach the coast
Twenty-siX planes constitute the
attacking force.
Secret Instructions from the Navy
department, giving the minute the
hattleship was to begin her coaStward
cruise, were opened at dawn today by
Capt. f. l.. Chadwick. of the battle
ship Ohio. the vessel from which the
Iowa, unnamed, will be operated and
manouvered by radio impulses in her
attempt to elude the airmen.
The Iowa is given free rein as to
the course to be pursued in attempt
ing to reach the coast, with the one
restriction that she keep within 100
miles of the mainland. The locating
of the battleship forms the first ahd
cne of the most important phases of
the problem.
Dummy bombs, filled With concrete
instead of powder and weighing up to
half a ton, were to be used in the at
tack" on the Iowa, the airmen being
required to test their ability to hit
the moving target at minimum
height of 1000 feet.
The pilot. station at the Virginia
Capes reported that it was expected
the blanket fog would lift in an hour
CT so. The time required for its lift
ing each morning varies, it was said,
heavy fog lifting at 10 a. M, while

Promises Not Kept
Mr.. Aneorge said none of the OBJ,
jects for which congress was called
Into special session had been ac-
complished.
:. 'Nor is there definite promise as
Ito when they will be-" he added.
"There are upwards of a hundred
first-term Republicans in the house
and they all feel as ! do, that we have
not been permitted to make our in
fluence felt.
"Congrss was called into special
session for certain definite purposes,
namely for revision of the cumber-
some unweildy and inequitable sys-
TEN of taxation, the passage of fair
protective tariff and the passage of a
peace resolution. None of these OBJ
jects have as yet been accomplished,
nor is there any definite promise as
: to when they will be.
Want to See Action
"Nearly three months have passed
since the calling of the special ses-
sion and we want to see action,
spelled with Il capital A.
I'VE believe, with the Republican
party, that what is best for the coun-
try is best for the party and we want
to impress that thought on some of
the older members. Some Of them
have been here so long they seem to
have forgotten. it.
I'VE are not meeting in any spirit
Of revolt. We have come. more re-
Gently from the people and iour opin-
ion should have some weight. Con
gress is all tied up with red tape. We
want to cut some of that red tape and
substitute action for delay. The Sc
niority rule can go too far. We feel
our districts have as much right to
representation as has Uncle Joe Can
