LABOR LEADERS
RAP INJUNCTION


Washington, Sept. Accepted in
official circles as a deliberate mani
festation of the administrations de-
termination to use its every power to
restore normal transportation ia
cilities, the injunction issued today
by Federal District Judge Wilkerson
in Chicago was denounced by labor
leaders here as an outrageous" in
vasion of strikers rights which should
not be permitted to interfere with
the efforts of them and their friends
to win the shopmen's strike.
The restraining order did not re-
present the limit to which the govern
ment was prepared to go should it
find that "other steps are necessary"
administration spokesmen declared,
but "they refused to indicate what
avenue would be followed if supple
mentary action were taken"
Leaders Not Influenced.
W. H. Johnston, who, as president
of the international Association Of
Machimsts, represents one of the
largest groups of men on strike de-
clarel the restraining order would
not influence the strike leaders to
abate in the slightest their efforts to
make their fight effective.
Both at the White house and the
department of justice, comment was
withheld on the sudden appeal of the
government to the federal courts in
the railroad situation, officials in
sisting that the governments brief
"spoke for itself"

INJUNCTION is
GRANTED GOVERNMENT
Attorney General Daughcrty, in Argu-
ment Before u. S. Court, Says
Trains Must Be Operated.


Chicago, ILL.,, Sept. Taking one
of the most drastic steps ever at
tempted in strike situation, the
United States government today
obtained temporary federal order,
restraining striking railway shop
men, their officers and affiliated
bodies throughout the country from
interfering in any way with the
operation of the nations railways.
The restraining order, hearing on
which was set for September IL,
was issued by Federal Judge James
H. Wilkerson upon the petition of
Attorney General Harry M. Daugh-
erty, who came here from Washington
TO argue for the action.
The order enjoins, until the hearing
all railway employees, attorneys, ser
wants and all persons acting in con-
nection with them from in any man
ner interfering with, hindering or OBJ
structing railway companies, their
agents, servants or employees in the
operation Of their respective railroads
and systems Of transportation or the
performance of their public duties and
obligations in the transportation of
passengers and property in interstate
commerce and the carriage of the
mails, and from in any manner inter
fering with employees engaged in in
spection, repair, operation and use of
trains, locomotives cars and other
equipment and from attempting to
prevent any person from freely enter
ing into or continuing in the employ
of the companies for the purpose of
inspection and repairing of locomotive
and cars or otherwise.
"The underlying principe involved
in the action" the attorney general
said in concluding his argument for
the order, "is the survival of the
supremacy of the government of the
UnlIeu SLaJeS.
Declaring that his request was not
aimed at union labor, the attorney
general said that the step was neces-
sary to the preservation of the unions
themselves. At the same time, he
said, the government expected to use
its authority to prevent the labor
unions from destroying the open shop.
Officials of the shop crafts asserted
that the order would not affect the
continuation of the strike.
"The strike will continue until a
satisfactory settlement has been
reached" Secretary Scott said.
w. H. johnson, president of the
International Association of Ma
chinists, said The leaders will not
abate their efforts to make the strike
effective despite any action taken by
the court.
B. M. Jewell, head of the shop
crafts, issued no statement and at his
headquarters it was reported that he
was in conference, while another Off
cial said he was out of the city.

DEEPLY RESENT
TROOP INVASION
Unions Liken Occupation of
Staunton TO German In
vasion of Belgium.
BY LLOYD MELLETT.

BRAZIL. Ind, Aug. 5-"The re-
action to the occupation Of the Staun-
ton district by the State troops is
like that of Belgium to the German
invasion" Harold Henderson. attor-
ney for district No. II, United Mine
Workers of America, declared in an
interview while here a few moments
today.
I'VE do not anticipate serious diff
ficulties. because every precaution to
prevent trouble has been taken. Wig
ilance committees have been organ
lied and every union miner told to
consider himself committee of one
to report Immediately any untoward
action.
People take a calm view Of the
strike situation here" Henderson said,
declaring that the coal mined here
could have scarcely any bearing on
the general strike.
1.-THE Pittsburgh Coal Company,
owned by Andrew Mellon, produces
more tonnage than the entire Indiana
district field when production is nor
NAL" he said.
'I am not criticizing Governor Nc
Cray, but coal would have been fur
nished for the State institutions, and
to say that calling out the troops is
not deeply resented would be mis-
take"

MORE SOLDIERS
ARE RUSHED To
COAL DISTRICTS
Third Battalion 151st Indiana
Infantry Transferred to
Military Zone,

The 3rd Battaliop Of the 151st In
diana Infantry, ordered from Camp
Knox. Ky, for service under Gen.
Robert II. Tyndall in the occupied
area in Clay County. passed through
Indianapolis today on its way to the
coal fields.
The battalion is commanded by
Maj James f. Rodenbeck OF Attica,
and is composed of Companies I OF
Terre Haute, X of Martinsvine, L OF
Ladega, NJ of Indianapolis and head
quarters Of Attica.
The new troops will bring the mum
ber Of men in the military district to
100.
The troops will be routed to /Staun-
ton and will report to Gen. Robert
H. Tyndall, who will issign them 60
guard duty somewhere along the
forty,mile line already established.
General Smith made it clear the call
for reinforcements was not due to
any disturbance, but to lack of suf-
ficient men to establish guard posts.
Sentiment Friendly
A few meetings were held in the dis
trict, but staff officers were in full
possession of inforI. alton concerning
them, according to a report to Cen
eral Smith. One meeting OF union
men voiced friendliest sentiments for
the guardsmen, assuring officers that
no organized attempts to Illustrate
their efforts would be made, the report
said. This leads officers to the belief
that such desultory firing as has been
done from ambush has not been or
ganized but simply done by small
bands trying to test the guard line.
Congregation Dispersed
General Smith was informed that a
large party of automobilists had con-
gregated at various parts of the line
during the night, but that they dis
persed without any disturbance.
With the arrival of the Sd Battalion,
approximately 1.100 men will be at.
tached to General Tyndall's forces.
General Smith said.
