Outlaw Ruling
Labor Board Action Against
Shop Workers Attacked
by A. +. of l.. Chief as
Invasion of Freedom
Ruling Will Be Fought
Opposition to Wage Slash
Not To Be Abandoned. He
Asserts, Despite Order

From Tic Tribuno'S Washington Bureau
W WASHINGTON, July 3.-Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor, in a statement
issued tonight condemned in severe
terms the ruling of the Railroad Labor
Board outlawng the railway shop
crafts unions which went on strike Sat-
urday.
Mr.. Gompers calls the ruling utterly
Bolshevik" and "fatuous" and predicts
1t will not stand as a permanent gov
ernment policy He compares the
boards action to the action of the Com
ernment-controlled agencies. Mr.. Com
pers's statement follows in part:
"The ruling of the United States
Railroad Labor Board to the effect that
unions now on strike are 'out tlawed'
and cannot again be considered as rep
rescntative of the workers before the
board is an action that is utterly Boil
shevlk in character and that is. Of
course, too ridiculous and fatuous to
be accepted as permanent American
government policy.
Says Freedom Is Stifled
by this astounding ruling the board
undertakes to disband unions at will
and to command at will that new or
CARNATIONS be formed. This no gov
ernment agency can do, because trade
unions are voluntary organizations Of
the workers, formed in response to
their demand, to serve their needs and
20 respond to their democratically ex-
pressed will and desire.
"rhe action of the board is exactly
a replica of the action of the Com
munists in turning the unions into gov
ernment-contro4led agencies for the
carrying out Of the orders Of the state.
Freedom of expression vanishes under
the order of the board. But I say now
that the workers of America. either on
the railroads or elsewhere, do not in
tend to sacrifice freedom Of expression
and of action.
The board undertakes to say that
unions whc4, differ with the board
must cease to exist-they are out
lawed' Whether this is for the mo-
ment an assumption of authority on
the part of the board is immaterial. 1t
is the logical outcome of the very es

nerve to now condemn the employees
who have been goaded into defending
themselves.
When it appeared that the board
was about to censure the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company in one of its deci-
sions the Pennsylvania went before
Judge of the United States District
Court and obtained an injunction
which prevented the board from even
rendering its decision
Assail Hooper's Policy
with the employees the case seems
to be entirely different Chairman
Hooper charges the three labor mem
bers Of the board with advocating Boil
shevism and Sovietism because they re-
fused to approve q 23 cents per hour
denounced every one who has taken
stand for the men affected by the de-
cision of the board.
"The record OF the board. instead of
being impartial, has been against labor
from the start Therein lies the main
cause for the present controversy. We
found that the cards were stacked
against us on all crucial decisions.
No Sympathetic Walk-Out
The powerful weapon cited by the
strike leaders Sunday as one means
by which pressure was to be brought to
bear upon the railroads crumpled with
the announcement Of Thomas Healy,
secretary and business agent of the
Engineers Beneficial Association 33
thot there would be no sympathetic
strike of the marine workers here.
This local MI. Hcaly said, will
not undcr any conditions or circum-
stances 60 oUJ on strike to aid the
shopmen. Our members have not for
gotten their experiences in the outlaw
strike of 1920. when these same shop
men, through their brothe herhood
threatened, when a settlement of our
differences with the railroads was IN
sight, to so OF. or strike if our men
were taken bac. TO work. During that
strike they did everything to beat us.
We certainly 90 not propose now to
give them any support or help"
The Long Island Railroad in an
nouncing that it would pay off its
striking employees, beginning next
Friday, July Z, says that the slight
irregularity experienced when about
100 Of the 250 men employed at the
power house went out near midnight
Saturday, has been remedicd and that
the service is now normal.

Breach Wider
Bitterness Grows and Cabi-

Await Harding's Return
Miners Reject Operators
Offer TO Negotiate in
''Regional'' Conferences

sFro'n The Tribuuo's Washington bureau
WASHINGTON, July 3.-Leaders of
the warning sides in the coal strike,
called into conference here last Satur-
day by President Harding, adjourned
to-day until July 10, after another
stormy session which brought them no
nearer an agreement on the method for
conducting negotiations looking to
settlement. Contrary TO all indica-
tions, the government did not show
its hand to-day and submit the com
promise proposal which it was expected
would break the deadlock
With the increasing bitterness of
feeling between the two comforting
delegations, evidences of which were
plainly visible to-day. the breach be-
tween them is wider, if anything, than
when they first met three days ago
Nothing is left before them for con
sideration This fact, it is said, makes
it obvious that it is up to the Admin
lstratlon to come forward and take the
lead if results are to be obtained. That

the last hope has now been wiped out
for an agreement without definite Fed
eral leadership is seen in the peremp
tory adjournment for one week
To Put 1t Up to Harding
Both Cabinet officers, it is declared,
feel that they should discuss the prob
lem thoroughly with their chief Presi-
dent Harding, before making formal
move. This desire and the new bitter
ness shown at the session to-day are
said to have been the prime factors
behind the recess, which was asked by
Secretary of Labor Davis. The ther-
mometer, which has been lowering
close to the 100 mark ever since the
operators and mine leaders responded
TO the Presidents invitation, has also
had its effect on dispositions. A weeks
respite. with conferences between the
government officials at this end and
between the two other sides and their
people at home in the mean time, may
give the conference q different temper.
it is pointed out.
Both Secretary Hoover and Secretary
Davis said they regarded the situation
as "hopeful,' because the conference
will start again intact and both sides
have expressed willingness to continue
the discussions.
