White House to intervene in
the strike.
Poultry feed houses were de-
pending on reserves to tide over
the chicken farmers, but the
supply was expected to play out
within 10 days.
Poultry men said they were
dependent almost exclusively on
the railroad for the proper kind
of feed from the Midwest. Pro-
Iducers feared that use of in
ferior substitutes would result
in an inferior production in the
huge broiler chicken output.
Some poultry houses were
hauling feed by truck. but the
process was called too slow to
keep up with the demand.
Similar difficulties were re-
ported by the seafood producers
on the Delmarva peninsula.
With the oyster season getting
under way, many of the pack
ers are finding it necessary to
hold back on shucking because
truck facilities are not adequate
to handle the output.

Mr.. Quill has said the chief
issue in the strike, which has

system, is job security. He
wants the railroad to stop

are not an issue.

Striking Pennsy Unions
Reject Arbitration Bid

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. .(AP).-Michael j. Quill, pres
dent of the Transport Workers Union said today he is
ready to reenter negotiations If asked in efforts to settle
the Pennsylvania Railroad strike but that he would
agree to compulsory arbitration.
Both the TWU, which claims $4,000 incorporating
Evening star., 1960-09-07

employees on the PRR, ana the
System Federation Union,
which has 5000 men on strike,
yesterday turned down the
railroads offer for binding
arbitration on three key issues
involving work rules.
Mr.. Quill listed two reasons
why the TWU would not accept
arbitration.
II. The strike was pre- judged
by Mitchell Secretary of Labor
,Mitchelll in the eyes of the
American people"
Mr.. Quill referred to Mr..
Mitchell's statement on a
Washington television news dis
cussion program Sunday in
which the Labor Secretary de-
clared that the TWU president
was unreasonable in his dispute
with the PRR.
"2. Under the Railway Labor
Act work rules are mediated
and bargained out, never arbi-
trated."
Want 50 Paychecks
Mr.. Quill said he polled every
one of his 46 locals by telephone
yesterday and they all were
against compulsory arbitration
mo matter what" The rail-
road is "whistling up a tree" he
said. "We1l sit this out. Most
of the men were working only
from 8 to II months a year. We
want SO paychecks a year."
Mr.. Quill said he has post
poned for a day or so a planned
tour of the railroads 13-State
network which stretches from
New York to st. Louis and in
cludes the District of Columbia.
He said he did this at the re-
quest of Philadelphia Mayor
Richardson Dilworth and Fed
sral lnediators who asked him to
stand by since they are pressing
for a settlement.
Il can't delay it (the tour
too damn long," Mr.. Quill said.
1T (the strike) may last for
ever"
Hours Meeting Held
Mr.. Quill and other top union
officials met for an hour yes
terday with James M. Symes,
PRR board chairman, and
Allen j. Greenough, PRR presi-
dent, for the first time since
the strike began last Thurs
day. The officials met at the
request of Mayor Dilworth.
The Mayor said he told them
that if they failed to get down
to real negotiations he and
other Mayors and Governors of
affected cities and States will
insist upon other means of
settling this strike-either by
arbitration or legislative ac-
ton"
Legislation won't club these
men back to work." Mr.. Quill
said when asked for comment
about Mayor Dilworth's state
ment.
Edward w. Wiesner, chief
negotiator for the System Fed
Grafton Union, said his group
turned down the arbitration be-
cause it considered work-rule
tissues mot proper for arbitra-
tion."
He and his group went back
into session today to finish
report on six proposals made
previously by the railroad" Mr..
Wiesner declined to. elaborate
ON the proposals. He did say,
however. they were not new and
involved work rules.
,Mr. Wiesner said the report
will be turned over to Federal
mediators who then will take
appropriate action either by
calling separate sessions or
joint conference. He said that
will be up to the railroad to
accept or submit counterpro-
posals.
Security Chief Issue
Asked if he felt the strike
would be prolonged, Mr.. Wies-
