of their trains they will be given
the full protection of the Federal
government.
Mr.. Harding has determined that
the only course the government
can now pursue is the part it fol-
lowed in the coal strike-extension
of the invitation of the employers
to operate their property with the
understanding that the federal
government would cooperate with
the state troops, standing behind
the railroad employers so long as
their efforts are directed to serving
the public.
Consideration is being given by
the President of going before
Congress with comprehensive
statement of the railroad situation,
including the rebuff that has met
the government attempt to settle
the strike. 1t is said that his
statement would include no sug-
gestion as to legislation, but he
does desire to place before Con-
gress and the American people all
the facts in the nationwide strike
as viewed by the federal govern
ment.
President Harding will place the
rail strike situation before Con-
gress and the country it was off
cially announced today at the
