moved one of the strike issues when.
one by one. many of them whose roads
had been following the practice an
-nounced that they would abolish the
contract system in their shops. The
Board in several cases brought by
employees against the road. ruled that
the carriers were violating provisions
of the transportation act in farming
out work TO contractors.
Railroad officials declare that the
public would scarcely he aware Of the
walk-out except through reading about
il. Transportation would continue un-
interrupted, they assertained. and in
some centers il was indicated that
shops will be operated on an open
shop basis. Definite word from head
quarters OF the maintenance OF way
employees at Detroit early today that
the track workers would remain at
work until July 8, at least. pending
conferences. left the shops crafts alone
in the walk-out today.
In ~pledging itself TO abolish the on
tract system the New York Central
made its agreement only as a means
of avoiding a strike. Counsel Tor the
road asserted that the New York Cen
trail lines, consider the practice legal.
Although. eleventh hour efforts by
the Railroad Labor Board TO prevent
a shipments strike apparently had
failed some hope Of accomplishment
toward forestalling strikes of other
classes of railway workers was seen as
a result of yesterday conference.
Three of the ten union chiefs, who
were summoned before the Board pu'
in their appearance when the meeting
convened. They were e. F. Cradle
president of the Maintenance of Wa
Employees; E. II. Fitzgerald of the
Railway Clerks and Freight Handlers
and D. w. Helt Of the Signalmen.
Timothy Healy. head OF the Oilers
and Stationary Engineers, who refused
TO attend the meeting until served
with a subpoena. issued at the SAM
time the Jewell writ wac ordered
said that 5000 OF the $4,000 member
Of his organization were voting strik'
ballots returnable July 10.
Delay in strike orders FOR Mainte
nance of Way employees brought hop,
that the Labor Board could aver
walk-out by the trackmen. Mr.. Cradle
II was pointed out. might assume tn
same role in the present situation tina
was played by w. G.. Lee, presiden
OF the Brotherhood of Railway Train
men when a general rail strik
threatened to tie up transportatio
last year.
With Chairman Hooper as the guild
ing genius and w. l.. McMenimen, on
Of the three labor members OF tn
board as the chairman's right-han
man, hope was expressed in railroa
! circles today that Mr.. Cradle could b
persuaded against calling the me
out. -.
