time strike call (5 P. M. EDT1 issued by union leaders last March.
 l The hope persisted here, however \ that the strike would be averted--- based on the obstinate belief that the workers would not strike against the Government.
 It would be the first walkout by operating railway sbrotherhoods since 1888. A high Government official said there was only one thing
 that could prevent "an unhOly
 mess" of the nations sprawling
 rail system. .
 That, he said, would be spec tacular last minute act" by the presidents of the two unions in. volved-A. F. Whitney of the train men and Alvanley Johnston of the engineers.
 The last word from them, given after the President seized the lines yesterday, was that the strike still stood. They left Washington last night for their headquarters in Cleveland with no further am, nouncement.
 Under the unions original
 orders, the strike would halt
 all except milk, troop and Army hospital trains. The strike would tie up, at least tempora-
 rily, the movement of livestock to packing houses, food and fuel to cities, and raw mate rials to the nations industrial
 plants struggling with recon version.
 Railroad officials were faced with the confusion of millions of stranded travellers Americas ever optimistic public was still buying tickets and boarding trains despite posters displayed prominently in all major railroad terminals that they were proceeding at their own discretion.
 Under the strike orders, all trains en route at the strike hour would proceed to the terminal Of the operating crew. MT. Truman went over the heads of the two union leaders when he issued his seizure order yesterday. Terming uninterrupted railway service essential to the public health and to the public welfare generally" he said:
 II call upon every emplOye of the railroads to cooperate
 with the Government to this
 end by remaining on duty"
 But up to a late hour last. night, the sentiment of the {, workers, as reflected in sample
 polls. indicated it would take . word from the presidents of two unions instead of from the President of the United States. Tn St. Louis, spokesman for 2,0Q0 locomotive engineers said: The men have instructions to strike at { P. M. Saturday and will follow instructions" In every city there were many who wanted to "go along with the President. But the. overwhelming trend of last nights poll was to strike as scheduled. The seizure, third in the nA-
 tion's history. was ordered yes-
 terday after Whitney and
 Johnston. representing 2SO.0O0 of the cOuntry's 1,75OOO0 rail- road workers, advised the Fresi-
 dent they were unable to set-
 tie their wage-rules dispute
 with railroad management.

A.B.C. PACT SIGNING ASSURED
Neeotiotors Meet ot12
 Bitches in Detroit
 Delay Signatures

The lon again, of again" settle ment of the American Brass Com pany strike seemed definitely as- sured today.
 OfE1cial ending of the strike is
 expected to be voted tomorrow at special membership meetings
 of Waterbury, TOrringt0n and AnsOnia A.B.C. units of the CLIO. Mine, Mill & Shelter
 Workers Union.
 Company and union negotiators were to meet at The Elton at noon today to sign a new one-year con- tract incorporating all the terms reached during 8 lengthy bargain ing period. Originally scheduled for 4 P. M. yesterday, the signing was postponed when hitcheS developed in settlement negotiations at De- troit. At Buffalo, similar negotia- tionS were conducted successfully and all that is needed there is Q ratification vote by the member ship. The Connecticut locals voted Wednesday to continue their strike until satisfactory agreements had been reached at Buffalo and De- troit.
 '"The differences at Detroit
 appear to be of minor nature
 and We are confident that the
 Connecticut contract will be
 signed here this noon," said
 John DriScOll, chairman of
 the negotiating committee for
 NaugataSCaz Valley M.M.S.W. To-
 calls.
 Negotiations at Detroit opened at 8 A. M. today. They were pur- posely set for the early hour to al- low reports to be telephoned here in time for the noon management union session.
 The Waterbury A.B C.. union unit will meet at 3 F. M. tomorrow in Garden Hall. Torrington strikers will meet at 10 A. M. and the An sonia meeting is set for 4:30 P. M.
 If everything goes as sched-
 uled, the strike will end to-
 morrow while in its 1O5th, day.
 Membership of the three Con-
 necticut locals at special meet
 ings Wednesday authorized
 their negotiating committee to
 sign the new contract but also
 decided to have the strike be
 ended only by another member
 ship vote.
 A vote to end the strike tomor- row will mean the withdrawal of picket lines. The company will then call in numerous maintenance en- ployes and supervisors Monday to prepare the plants for the resump- tion of normal operations later in the week.
 John J. MankOwshi, member
 of the M.M.S.W. international
 executive board, reported from
 Buffalo that agreement on con-
 tract points had been reached
 there and a final draft of Q new
 contract was being prepared.
 MT. MankOwski headed 8 dele-
 gatiOn from Naugatuck Valley
 units sitting i'm on the Buffalo
 parleys.
 MT. Driscoll did not disclose what the difficulties were at Detroit, but 1t was indicated that the com- pany'S proposition key issues were Satisfactory. The Connecticut locals have insisted that Detroit and Buff falo contracts carry suitable clauses on grievances procedure, seniority, union security, vacation pay and rights of management.
