c ENI0RITY rights were sui oloeA-
~ ing a settlement Of the railway
shopmen's strike as last week drew 10
a close, and though peace efforts were
continued, their success was worse
than predetermined in view OF the I'M
compromising stand of both sides on
the chief point in dispute. On Wednes-
day the Association of Railway Execu-
tives. by a vote of 254 to 4. rejected
the proposal of the chiefs OF the
brotherhoods, acting as medlators'
that the strikers be reinstated with
seniority unimpaired. The brother
hood leaders, after comforting with
heads of other RAN unions, suggested
the possibility of separate agreements
with the railroads. and the executives
said they would test the sincerity 'oi
this proposal. but with the distinct
understanding that any inulsldual
settlement would have to conform 10
the understanding of seniority reached
at the general session Of the execu-
tives. Most of the railroads also re-
fuse TO agree to take back all OF the
strikers. as consistently demanded by
the union.
Bert NJ. Jewell, spokesman for the
strikers, was pessimistic as to peace
full settlement. He issued a state
ment saying:
.The association Of railway execu-
lives has closed the door. The unions
have offered every concession WITHIN
reason 10 end the strike and to save
the public from a breakdown OF trans
portation. but the association mas
made none. on the contrary IL mas,
since the strike began. raised an en-
tirely new and irrelevant issue OF its
own-senIority; and by its refusal to
recede from its position has mace
settlement impossible at this Tune
The responsibility for what VIII nap
pep now rests wholly upon H.
.sThe shop craft employees voted In
lime for a strike TO establish a living
