HOPE Of ENDING
RAIL STRIKE IS
FL|CKER|NG NOW
Hooper Says It's impossible; Rail
Executives Say It's Fight to
Finish; Strikers Remain
Silent on Subject.
PEACE FAILURE COMES
WHEN SETTLEMENT NEAR
Daily Conference for Peace Talk
Abandoned; Question OF Seniority
One Of Chief items Hanging
Up Walkout End.
BY CHARLES Il. LYNCH

tunited Press staff Correspondent. J
Chicago, July 20-IIope of ending
the rail strike was abandoned today.
Chairman Ben ". Hooper Of the
railroad labor board. declared a
settlement was impossible; rail
executives said 1T is fight to the
finish; union leaders were silent.
Conferences held daily for the last
three weeks with a view of bring
Ing a settlement OF differences, have
been abandoned
The latest peace failure came at
time when 1t was believed strikers
and railroads were on the verge of
reaching an agreement. Satisfactory
compromises had been reached on
all questions on which the shopmen
and others voted TO strike. The
stumbling block was the railroads
refusal to allow the strikers to re-
turn to work with full seniority
rights. Railroad executives claimed
return of seniority rights to the
strikers would be unfair to hun
dreds of loyal employees who refused
to walk out. and to thousands of
newly employed men.
Union leaders would listen to no
peace plan which did not guarantee
the standing of their men.
Added to the strike peril was the
menace of diminishing coal supplies.
Scores of trains have been discon-
tinued. Others are running any
where from a few minutes to sew
eral hours late. Business houses re-
port that freights are greatly de-
layed.
Plans were being completed to or
ganize a dry land" fleet. Thou
sands of motor trucks have been
listed and will be rushed into serv-
ice If further curtailment of train
service results. Airplanes will carry
the mails.
President jewell, of the shop
crafts, declared in statement to-
day that the creation of national
board of adjustment through an
amendment of the transportation
act, would also be necessary before
he would discuss peace.
"The roads will yield as soon as
we bring them to their knees" the
statement said. "The railroads know
they cannot justify fight against
the national adjustment board

Washington, July 20.-Legal ac-
tion probably will be one of the gov
efhment's next moves to end the
menace of the nationwide mine and
rail strikes.
Attorneys for the department of
justice are now examining a mass of
reports from all parts of the coun-
try to determine whether the gov
ernment can prosecute on the
grounds that the two tie-ups are con-
splracies to restrain interstate com.
merce
Action may be taken against both
the strikers and the employers.
One angle now under investigation
is whether any agreements exist be-
tween the striking miners and the
shopmen. Charges that the two
groups are working together to pre-
vent the movement of coal, have
been received at the department.
Should these charges be substan-
tiated It is held that the govern
ment could act against the strike
leaders, charging a conspiracy to
restrain interstate commerce.
Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, made
an implied threat of sympathetic
strikes, in O statement today to the
United Press.
"These things come home to
roost,' Gompers said in response to
information that many big employ
ers are discharging railroad and
mine strikers who have gone into
other industries temporarily.
"The evidence shows that many
of the big employers are bound by
an understanding to carry on a SYM
pathetic lockout" he said. "It is
the blacklist in operation.
'fBut these things have habit OF
coming home to roost.'
The chamber of commerce OF the
United States today came to the
support of President Harding's pro-
gram for coal mining. Julius II.
Barnes, president of the organiza-
tion, issued a call for all members
of the organization to assist in pre-
serving order and securing men to
work in the mines. The chamber
also was urged to assist in reaching
a permanent solution of the troubles
in the coal industry and transpor-
tation.
