Mike Donnelly Issues State-
ment Explaining What
He Said About Them.
fLEVKLAND, Ohio. Oct. 24.—(By
U. P.)—Brotherhood chiefs declared}
today that railroad service could bo |
effectively tied up without the aid of
associated unions.
In this way they minimized the
c ontinued defection from their ranks j
of rail employes who previously had
been counted upon to join the gen-
eral progressive strike, scheduled to
begin next Sunday.
Union leaders declared that strike
preparations would continue under
their direction up to the hour of the
departure for Chicago to attend the
•peace conference" Wednesday called
by the railway labor board.
While they arc meeting there with
the board and the railway executives
i be work will be carried on by their
. subordinates.
k confirmation that the railways are
h:king an Individual poll of their em-
ployes who will obey or ignore the
trike call was obtained today from
the local offices of the New York
Central and the Pennsylvania. It
was said the poll will be completed
in three or four days.
The main body of union officials
will leave here Tuesday night for
Chicago, and it is believed the as-
sistant chiefs, general chairmen and
executive committeemen there will
total more than a thousand.
Discussing the action of other rail-
way or associated unions in refusing
to join the strike, L. E. Sheppard,
president of the Order of Railway
Conductors, declared:
"I do not construe It as a break. It
is merely an announcement that they
are reserving the right to take action
in their own way. They probably
are pursuing their own tactics.
Resenting the statement by Mike
Donnelly, finance commissioner,
that a street car trainman "had little
i responsibility," a committee from the
j local street car employes Monday
1 explained the amount of time and
character of training received by a
I trainman before he was permitted
I to operate a car.
"It is significant that a street car
1 motornmn or conductor must make
a heavy bond to the company before
1 he is even permitted to learn to run
a car," it was pointed out.
"Besides taking care of his cat1
! and knowing its mechanical fea-
I tures, he must run at a high rate of
' speed, avoid collision with automo-
| lilies and pedestrians. In case the
: brakes fail to function properly he
! must know how to stop his car," it
j was stated.
i "A conductor handles approxi-
mately $75 a day. He is also under
I bond. He must be vigilant tQ pre-
vent accidents that might cost the
i lives of passengers and bring heavy
damages against the company." After
