600 striking rail shopmen, leading off

statements. The unions seem slowly to-
be forcing the railroads to defeat, Use
Of strikebreakers has caused tension in
several districts.
The familiar cuss words Of industri-
al warfare were brought in to play by
Federal Judge Carpenter with ostenta-
tious publicity Carpenter drew up a
personal letter" to U. S. Marshall Ro--
bert Levy and then read it to the news
paper men.

penter read. The courts Of this coun-+
try, both federal and state, are the last
bulwark between the people and COM
munism, bolshevism and anarchy. In
our courts the poorest and the richest

then instructed the marshall to protect
strikebreakers and enforce the injunc-r
ton previously issued by such means
as may be necessary.
Wrecks are becoming more frequent
Union men say these are due to defec-
tive repair and defective inspection by
green strikebreakers, while quarters
friendly TO the roads intimate malice
by the strikers. Wrecks have been re-
ported on the Milwaukee road, the Sam
ia Fe and the Reading.
Determination by the railroads to re-
sumo shop operations with strikebreakc
ers under guard has led several sheriffs
to warn that this will probably result
in violence. Armed guards are hard
to control and strikers are quicker to-
resent excuses and abuses by COM
pany officials and guards than polio
ing by the regular authorities. Union
meetings have been uniformly peace
full. according to reports to railway em<
ployes' department headquarters here.

forth that the men are striking against

SYMPATHY OF PEOPLE is
WITH FIGHTING WORKERS
.fBx The Federated Peso

Wenatchee, Wash. After tying upe
every l0-hour construction job on the
Great Northern railroad in this state
for a month, the Construction Work
ers' Industrial union and integral unit
of the |. w. W.. has forced the estab-
lishment of the eight-hour day and won
an increase Of 5 cents an hour for the.
5000 workers involved, according to.
a statement by the union.
Sentiment in nearly all communities
was with the strikers. The nonunion
Iabore1s were ostracized. At Skyhom-
ish some of them from Grant Smith
camp attended dance, but none Of the
girls present would dance with them.
The workmen Of the town held meet
ing and demanded that the sheriff re-
move the company gunman.
But the prize strategy of the union
was the picketing of employment agen-
cies and railroad lines from Chicago to-
the coast. Hundreds of men were dis
suaded from shipping to Great North
ern jobs when informed that a strike:
was on.
Recruits en- route to the strike scene
were diverted from their journey by
Ipickets along the railroads. Only four
men were arrested during the strike
one at Harrington on criminal syndi--
calism charge. He is Frank Murray,
and it was alleged by the arresting of
ficeys that he was active in organizing
the strike.
