They have already accomplished

This meeting was adjourned late in
the day and our chairmen we're
told to come back the same evening
for the decision Of President Cor
man, when he would be in q posi-
ton to state the policy Of the rail-
road toward q settlement OF the
strike. At the meeting that eve
ming ouy representatives were told
that the Rock Island would not
consider settling the strike under
the Jewell-Willard plan and that
the present conditions must con-
tinue. Our chairmen then inform
ed Mr.. German that if this was the
attitude OF the Rock Island we
would continue our effective strike
to the bitter end, and that We were
confident that the end would mean
the complete Generalization Of the
equipment and service on the rail-
road through lack Of competent and
efficient machinists, such as COM
prised the mechanical organization
on this railroad on and prior to
July /. Mr.. German was further
informed that 1t was to become a
test as to whether or not railroad

without a competent, efficient and
loyal organization Of mechanics.
The general chairmen are now
backed up in their stand by many
kilograms from the different points
on this railroad system. stating
that the men are now willing to
stay on strike until next spring, il

fight is now being forced by the
Rock Island railroad in our partic-

it is impossible to operate a rail-
