AS Mr.. Jewell stepped from the

tive of the department of justice
and was given the official service Of
the temporary Injunction issued
against the shopmen by Federal
Judge James Wilkerson.

the union leaders united in de-
claring that the text of what was
termed the Willard plan for the
settlement Of the strike on sepa-
rate roads was nothing but the pro-
posals brought before the sessions
of the executives at New York some
three weeks ago.
