Treats References
With Contempt

Since you speak as chairman Of the
Railway Employees Publicity assecia-
tion and since it is exceedingly import
ant that the American people know
precisely the questions at issue in the
present railway and coal strikes l am
more than glad TO answer your tele-
gram though I can only treat Your
politically partisan references with
that contempt which is felt by every
good American citizen in the hour Of
deep public concern. Happily for the
American public everything done and
everything said by government author
ity relating to the two strikes Is q mat
ter of record, and can not in any way
be distorted.
There is no dispute about the loyal
American citizenship of the men on
strike, nor win any one question that
many of them gave everything that
men can give for the service of this
country in the world war.
