Dave Williams, secretary OF the COM
mittee. said last night that the rail-
road executives had reversed the rules
OF ages"
III the strike breakers are worthy Of
protection now." he said. then Judas
had "A right TO take the thirty silverings
and lead the Roman horde to the play
Ing Carpenter In the garden OF Gethse-
mane then Benedict Arnold had the
right 10 direct the soldiers OF King
George to the sleeping fort on the Hud-
son---then every spy and traitor has q
right TO sell his labor TO the enemy
THE executives should go nd further !,
they should erect a monument to every
coward who refused to light In the late
war: they should sanctify every traitor
who refused to abide by the will OF the
majority. for in the future, n the new
creed IL adopted, the yellow coward will
be held up ms a hero, while the ma
jority who want 10 fight for n better
civilization will be branded as out
laws"
Many OF the railroad presidents tele-
Rraphed or telephoned TO their Offices as
soon as the meeting adjourned and Or
dered bulletins to be posted to the ef-
feet that the railway executives had de-
cidcd TO protect the rights OF new en-
p.oyees.
The majority seemed 70 think the
presidents efforts as mediator will be
abandoned and did not stay In New
