Aid for Strikers Planned

Program to Raise Fund
BY Gilman. Parker

ATLANTIC CITY, Sept H. Decision
of Federal Judge Wilkerson in Chicago
to extend for ten days the Daugherty
temporary injunction against the strik-
ing railroad shopmen is regarded by
the heads Of organized labor as sintini-
daticn' and as an attempt, in the hope
Of settlement meanwhile, at "affording
both the government and Judge Wilker-
son convenient method of getting out
Of am unwarranted position
This was the conclusion reached to-
day by the executive council of the
American Federation of Labor in it's
Afternoon sessions. in the Hotel AM
bassador, which were devoted largely
to, consideration of Judge Wilkerson's
/ action and the shopmenis strike gener-
ally.
1t was announced also in statement
issued by the council, that within the
| next few days it, viii make public a
plan Of aiding the rail strikers. 1t was
| intimated that leading feature of this
! plan will be the issuing of an appeal
to all union workers sor funds to assist
the shopmen, and labor leaders declared
that the full backing of the Federation
outside of recommending general
strike, which never has been seriously
considered probably will be placed be-
hind the railroad workers IN their fight
Gompers Comments on Writ
| In addition to the formal executive
council declaration, Samuel Gompers,
! president of the Federation, in an inter
view commented on the Chicago injunc-
tion proceedings as follows: .@.
"The proceeding at Chicago is sorry
spectacle, avowedly part of the open
! shop drive to destroy trade unions in
order that big business and financial
interests may deal with the workers
individually.
"The wage earners know that their
only salvation lies in organization and
that as individuals they could not sue
cessfully resist the power of corporate
wealth to force wages and working and
living conditions lower and lower until
peonage and slavery again curse ON
nation
at would certainly better become the
administration of great republic like
ours to use its vast array of legal
talent to prosecute the war grafters, as
exposed by Messrs. Woodruff and John
son, Republican members of the House
of Representatives, rather than perse-
cute workingmen for insisting upon a
wage sufficient to raise an American
family in health and decency."
Judge Wilkerson's decision to ex-
tend the temporary injunction for ten
days was considered informally by the
executive council after which tho
council made public its comment as
| follows:
"This decision caused no surprise
| and the extension of it to ten days is
| looked upon as embracing doubt in

Roads to Save
California Il rllit
L rom Embargo
Will Work Out Plan for
Western Product 10 Enter
New York While Cars
Are Used for Anthracite
Strikers Are Jubilant
Say Order Against Western
Freight LIS Due to Inabil-
ity to Repair Equipment

Pennsylvania Railroad officials will
meet with committee OF the Fruit
and Produce Trade Association at the
local Offices of the railroad to-day in
an effort to work out some plan which
will save California fruit from total
exclusion from the New ork market
which it now faces as a result of the
embargoes on Western freight an
nounced by four Of the principal car
riers on Monday.
While railroad officials were insist
ing that the embargo was made neces-
sary only by the need for clearing
their tracks for anthracite coal ship
ments, and the leaders of the striking
shopcrafts workers were insisting Just
as vehemsntly that tho real cause was
the inability of the roads to make
necessary repairs to their equipment,
local fruit dealers were worried about
the effect of the embargo on their
business.
1t is thought likely that the Penn
sylvania will find it possible to care
for the California fruit shipments dur
ing the emergency period and that
some arrangement will be reached with
the fruit dealers at to-day's meeting.
No Additional Embargoes
ANo duultlouai eInDaT&OeS were an
| nounced yesterday, and for three of
the remaining four anthracite carrying
| roads it was said that no such action
is contemplated at this time. 1t is
generally agreed, however, that should
| diversion of freight from embargoed
| roads congest any given connecting
point local embargo would be ordered
until the accumulated freight had been
handled.
Local strike leaders pointed to the
embargo as an indication of the cf-
ticacy of the strike in telegram to
Bert M. Jewell, national leader, in
which they opposed any plan for the
making of separate peace agreements
with the railroads and insisted on set
tiement terms on a national basis only.
An arrangemnt by which the Penn
sylvania lines will carry the Cali
fornia fruit crop into New York is
made possible by fortuitous circum-
stance which brings the peak Of it's
own fruit handling business at another
| season. Railroad practice has made
the Erie the principal road for Cali
fornia fruit products, which move
from July to November. The Pennsyl-
vania carries most of the Southern
fruit, which is shipped almost entire
ly from November to July.
Will Agree to Take Erie's Business
At the Pennsylvania offices yester
day it was said that the road would
agree to have the Erie's fruit business
diverted TO its lines temporarily and
would make the Manhattan produce
yard at South Keany, N. j., available

during a long period Of sickness o.
the vigiIant hand of that dear
mother was surrendered back to her
creator.
In February 1904. Mr.. and Mrs.
Blair together with their three child
rem moved to Colorado where the!
purchased and lived on 8 small fTuli
farm near the city OF Grand juno
ton until November 1906 when they
came TO Payette living on a fruit
farm near Fruitland until the fall OF
1910 moving at that time to Payette
where they have since made their
home
one OF the most consolins things
We can say, Mrs. Blair has lived .
true christian life from childhood,
and her departure from this life Is
not death. 1t is only promotion
from a world OF sin and suffering
into a place OF peace snd happiness
where sorToving and suffering is un-
known and TO be with her sweet little
flaxen haired daughter who preceded
her TO the better world many years
ago.
On coming 10 Payette Mrs. Blair
united with the Christian Church al
this place and took an active part al
all services, many times attending
when i'll health would bearly permit.
For several years she faithfully snd
satisfactorily held the place as leader
Of the choir. her life has principally
been a life OF devotion to others,
thinking least OF her own suffering.
During her last illness and the three
long weeks of suffering at the Hot
Lake Sanitorium she was patient to
the last, her only hope was that she
might be spared s few years more
TO assist in the care OF her home and
family and others whom she dearly
loved, her life has been an exempli-
fled life to follow. Besides = hus-
band who has for nearly forty years
born with her the trials and enjoy
ed the pleasures Of life and who will
more keenly feel the loss, she is sur
viYed by one son and two daughters,
Mrs. T. o. Mead and Mrs. Grover
Stewart, OF LaGrande. and We're, the
youngest Of the family now 81 years
Of age, who is home with his father.
The funeral was held from the
Christian Church last Friday after
noon conducted by Rev. Move, who
spoke principally OF the christian
life OF the departed and the assur-
ance OF her reward. InterRlent took
place in Riverside cemetery where
