Jewell, head Of the railway employees
department of the American Fedora
ton OF Labor, said last night ina
statement replying to the rail execp-
tive ultimatum of Wednesday.
The rail executives suggested that
the strike be called off and the men
return to work, after which differ
cnces might be taken up before the
United States Railroad Labor Board
Mr.. Jewell, in last nights state
ment, intimated that the reason tie
executives refused TO meet slop-
crafts officers in an effort to medi-
ate the strike as had been suggest
ed, was that the railways hope TO
destroy the employers Organizations.
If such is the case, the statement
said, the railroads are due TO re-
ceiye a sudden awakening, and the
American public should charge them
with esponsibility.
