Rail Lineage To Be Tied Up Oc'obor 30, the First Day of the Strike
The railroads have been divided into four groups by the unions, which will be called out on strike sepa?
rately at intervalo of forty-eight hours. The lines shown on this map comprise the first group, which goes out
first. Only one road, the S'eaboard Air Line, reaches New York. In what groups the principal Eastern roads
tire put has not been announced.
maintained with practical normality.
and in other cases of disruption of
ordinary rail transportation there has
been invariably a tacit understanding,
il not a formal declaration, that the
post was inviolate.
Members of Congress, outside of the
committees having to do with trans?
portation and utilities, displayed un?
usual interest in the situation, because,
it was said, of the prominence which
has been given throughout the present
session to the possibility of reduced
freight rates. At least one important
"bloc" has gone on record as being of
the opinion that such reduction was
the most necessary of the several sug?
gested steps looking to a return of
business to normal channels.
East Is Given

In Rail Strike
(Continued fren p*gs one;
the final instructions probably will not
be issued until October 21."
However, E. J. Mcnion, president of
the Order of Railroad Telegraphers,
to-night in St. Louig refuted the Pier
son ?statement, saying:
"The policy of the Order of Railroad
Telegraphers has not been formulated,
and Mr. Pierson is not authorized to
give out any such statement. Our pol?
icy will not bo known until Octo?
ber 21.
"The general chairman of the or?
ganization will be convened in Chi?
cago on October 21 to discuss the
policy and arrangements of the or?
ganization relating to the strike, and
whatever action is decided tipor: will
be announced at that time.
"Mr. Pierson is not authorized to
make such a statement as sent out
from Chicago."
The shop crafts unions, comprising
about 476,000 employees, to-day de?
ferred the formal issuance of a strike
call pending a meeting to be held here
Wednesday, but their leaders have offi?
cially announced that their organiza?
tions will be called out, and that the
delay in sending out the call has been
erased purely by the time needed to
draft the final plans and orders.
Own Crevances Govern
At the same time, however, the shop
erafts leaders have made it known that
while they will go out with the
i brotherho'ods and the switchmen, they
arc not pledged to stay out after their
own grievances have been satisfac
? torily adjusted.
"Our organizations will return to
] work when they are satisfied that they
, have gained their individual points," a
high official said to-night. "The con?
cessions which would satisfy one body
of workers might not satisfy another.
It is quite certain that we will all be
on the same track going out, but there
are many sidings, and we don't have to
? come back together."
B, M. Jewell, head of the railway em?
ployees'department, American Federa
; ton of Labor, which comprises the
shop erafts, said his men never would
: have been called out Independently on
a question of wages alone. *
"Acting independently, our men never
would go out on a question of wages
alone," said Mr. Jewell. "They will
f'eht to the last ditch, however, for
their rules and for fair working condi?
tions? matters of principle-hut the
? executive committees of the shop
: crafts weri very much opposed ?to call
? lag n strike on the v.ago question
alone."
May Await Hearing
Mr. Jewell indicated that final in-j
structions to the men under him might
he delayed until after the Pennsylva
: ;a Kail road hearing before the Labor
Board, scheduled to begin October 20,
at which the board may determine
whether the carrier had violated the
bi : rd's order directing a new election
of siiop crafts representatives to nego?
tiate working rule, with the manage?
ment. The shop crafts consider this
, a ;ht against their fight to
iate with the employees over
working conditions, and their leader?,
expressed the opinion they would pre?
fer to strikt' on this question together
with that of wages, rather than on
that of wages alone, Mr. Jewel! said.
The strike would have little effect
on the average 'arge industry of the
Middle West but would result in cloo
wn all of the packing plants
within three weeks and undoubtedly
would force many small factories to
close, representatives of some of the
of this region said
were being drawn up

Effect of the Strike on New York City
Involves Employment, Food and Fuel
The railroad strike, scheduled for October SO, is expected to affect
New York's commuting service as ivell as its trunk line trains. It3
effect on the metropolis will be:
To make 18,000 railroad employees, with aggregate wages of
$750,000 a week, idle. To affect 12,000 other workers indirectly. To
discommode an army of more than 1,000,000 commuters.
To leave the city with a supply of coal for only two weeks, butter
and flour for one month, meat for throe months and canned goods for
three weeks. Fresh vegetables and fruits would be lacking, but Long
Island and New England can supply potatoes. Milk for babies will
I be brought in by motor truck;; commandeered by the Department of

Says There Must Be Some One
in Country Big Enough
to Prevent Calamity to
the ?Nation at This Time
Walker D. Hines, director general
. of the Railroad Administration during
?the war, who had beep abroad sixti
; months acting as arbiter for the Coun- |
cil of Ambassadors in Paria, returned I
vesterday on the French liner La |
Savoie from Havre.
On arrival at Quarantine Mr. Iiines .
learned of the impending nation-wide
railroad strike and expressed the opin?
ion that the situation wr.3 exceedingly
serious for the people of this country.
"I am not familiar with the situation
in detail," said Mr. Hines, "but it is
my opinion that the strike should be
blocked ut once. Surely there should
be some one in this country big enough
to prevent such a national disaster. It i
is a serious situation and a strike of i
such great magnitude at a time like
this should not be permitted to start." j
Adjusted German Tonnage Seizure
Mr. Hlnea was sent abroad by this
! government on request of the Council
j of Ambassadors, who desired that an
1 American adjust the river tonnage
seized by the Allies on the Rhine, Elbe.
-; Danube and Oder rivers. He covered
I every navigable milo of these rivers,
! and recently finished his task of ton
j nage allocation except that along the
| Oder, which could not bo disposed of
I because of its involvement, with the
I Silesian dispute.
From the Rhino tonnage Mr. Hines
j allocated to the French 250,000 tons o"
\ barges and tugs to the extent of 25,000
; horsepower. To Czecho-Slovakia from
j the Elbe he awarded 150,000 tons of
German barges and small craft. Ru
; mania and Jugo-Slavia, he found, had
j each captured enough tonnage from the.
I Danube for their present needs, and
i he assigned a nortion of it to Czecho
; Slovakia.
Dur.ng his stay abroad Mr. limes
j said he found time to. study the po? t
I war conditions an'l the force- ; t work
in the great political cauldron. "I
I have watched the efforts of the world
j to struggle back to a normal peace time
? basis," he said, "and my conclusion is
i that the world's capacity for making
war is infinitely more effective than
its capacity for making peace.
Urges V. S. Hein World Realize Peace
"I believe our own country ?hould
exert all its ingenuity and influence
to increase the world's ity to
realize peace. Ihr cordial acqub jcence
.which all the countries have shown in
my decisions is an interesting illu tr ?
i tion of the confidence which the
countries of Europe, although mutually
distrustful, show in the impartiality
j of a citizen of the United States be
; cause of the disinterested status of our

i nounced at the headquarters, 714 East
182d Street, that the men were pra
I pared to carry out the strike order.
Ninety-elghc per cent of the New
York trainmen voted to strike if
wages were reduced, Mr. Sweeney ^aid.
"The railroad officials hi Chicago
who say the strike vote is merely s
! bluff do not know the actual situa?
tion," said Mr. Sweeney. "It is not only
a question of life or death for the
; union organization; it is almost a
i question of life or death for the men,
I for they cannot possibly live on wage;
lower than they receive at present.
"Wo have not yet received the official
' strike order, but the men are prepared
for it. Thar, was shown by the local
strike vote, which revealed that more

at the bottom of it, so far as wo are
concerned. In August, l'J20, the rail?
roads received permission to raise
their freight rates about 30 per cent
merely on the argument that they were
paying high wages. The wage increase
was only 18 per cent. Last July the
roads cut wages 12 per cent. Now they
want another cut of 10 per cent or
more. At the same time they are en?
joying the high freigilt rates, which
they received because of the higher

Special Dispatch to The Tribune
CLEVELAND, Oct. 18.?"Only a mir?
acle can now stop a nation-wide railway
strike. There may be a savior some?
where, but I can see no indication now
that such a person exists." With this
statement W. G. Lee, president of the
Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, gave
: it as his opinion to-day that the walk
; out of almost 2.000,000 transportation
workers, including the membership of
j the Big Four brotherhoods and the
Switchmen's Union of North America,
called Saturday by the workers' lead?
ers to take place beginning October 30,
at 6 a. m., was wellnigh inevitable.
A conference of the five leaders of
the largest railway workers' organiza-;
: tions will take place in Cleveland Tues?
day. Cleveland is to be the center of
the strike, if it comea, with the head?
quarters of ail brotherhoods and unions
in this city.
Developments of Sunday
The developments a3 gleaned from
the railway men'?, representatives to?
day were:
Bridges have been burned behind the
chiefs in sending out the strike instruc?
tions. No provision has been made for
a postponement, the five hundred gen?
eral chairmen being sent strike ordern
and a code message which if received
later by wire will mean that the strike
in called oif. They have been told to
disregard any other messages.
Six shop crafts organizations which
have the same grievances as the broth?
erhoods have indicated unofficially that
"just as soon as the roads arc picked
on which the brotherhoods are going
out the shops craftsmen will do the
rest." These are acting; altogether in?
dependently of the brotherhoods, how?
ever.
Th? strike Is tgainst the 12Vi per
cent wage cut ordered by the Railway
Labor Board. It cannot take into con
nideration the new wage cut which the
railroad executives made known their
intention of asking for, because that
cut has not gone beforo the labor
board and therefore cannot be officially
known to the brotherhoods.
llarding's Action Looked Fot
Not only the railroad workers but
the public and the executives were
watching for action bv President Har?
ding on the strike call.
It was felt in brotherhood quarters
that action of the President was almost
the only means left to avert a
strike. It wan aaid that the Railway
Labor Board already had handed down
its decision, the strike vote was taker,
and the orders issued, and there was
no appeal except In & conference which
might be called by Washington to
thrash out the question.
President Lee, of the trainmen, is.
it's toasted, of
course. To seal j
in the flavor? !

back in Cleveland and at his office
superintending the mailing of strike
instructions. Timothy Shea, first; vice
president of the Brotherhood of Rail?
way Firemen and Engineman, was at
the headquarters of his brotherhood.
although his chief, WT. S. Carter, had
not yet arrived from Chicago.
F. A. Burgess, E. G. Weils and L. G. i
Griffing, all officials of the engine-!
men's brotherhood, also are here.
OthiT Leaders Due To-day
Wrarren S. Stone, president of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers;
L. E. Sheppard, president of the Order
Of Railway Conductors, and T. C. Cash
on, head of the Switchmen's Union of
North America, are still in Chicago,
but will be in Cleveland to-morrow to
begin work. Mr. Cashen will remove
his headquarters from Buffalo to
Cleveland and Mr. Sheppard will come
from Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
Elaborate arrangements have been
made to protect tho organization from
the work of spies on the day when the
strike is to become efi'ect ve. Code
messages were made up, consisting of
any sentence whicH might come into
the hand of an officer assigned to that
duty while he sat before a typewriter.
If a duplicate of these messages is re?
ceived by the general chairmen b< -
twecn now and October 30 it will nu i
j that the strike has been cal'ed off. In
; this plan there is no provision for a
postponement in case President Har
' dint? should call a conference which
has not yet reached any decision'by
j October SO.
This arrangement is the result, it is '?
paid, of a strike a number of years ago,
which was ruined by the receipt of
messages on its eve that the call was
oit and tho men were to return to
work.
New Cut Affects Sentiment
Although the strike is against the
! 12V? per cent wage cut already* an
| nounced by the Labor Board, the rail
I way executives' action in announcing
? that they would ask another reduction
I had a marked effect in causing the
! mailing of the orders, it was said by
j Brotherhood representatives.
Mr. Lee made it pla n a few days 3go
that he had used his influence to avert
a walk-out over the 12% per cent cut,
but the action of the executives blocked
that. He took the position that if a
pledge from the executives that no
further reductions would be asked
could be obtained, the workers could
afford to remain on their jobs. No
such conciliatory attitude was met with
at the recent Chicago conferences, how?
ever, it is understood.
Strike Certain.

violence there will be nothing to the
strike. We. can get enough men to
put in the strikers' places and we ex?

"I think there is a feeling that there
ought to be a strike and get it over
with. It is difficult to live with people
who are threatening you all the time.
The German Emperor used to do that
?he rattled the saber, and one day he
drew it. The railroad brotherhoods
may carry through their threats."
W. H. TrucRdaVe, president, of the
D^'W-ce. Lackawanna & Western, said
it was too soon to say very much about
cho prospecta, b t tnat it looked very
much as if there was going to be a
strike. While the situation was seri
| cus, Mr. Truesdale said, it did not seem
i now that the strike could be carried
! out on a large scale.
"The strike ?3 wholly unjustified,"
Mr. Truesdale added. "There is not a
particle of justification for it, and the
, roads will stand on the decisions of the
I Railroad Labor Board."
Wrhen Charles Hayden. of the Chi

viewed he said.
"It seems to me, with so man? &.,

are, it is a foolish time to ur.derUk? ?

So far as suburban New York U ee?
cerned the belief wa? expressed bv
railroad officials that commuters wsgtj
be able to continue their cotnmutW
during the strike through non-union
employees, although the utmost ease of
travel could not be promised.
What plans the roads have for s-jb

could not be learned, except so far (,

"You are working too hard"
So his doctor told him yesterday?,
^Less work, less worry?and more exercise'*
was the doctor's prescription?
And today he is wondering how he can arrange
his affairs to do as his physician has ordered.
if this over-worked business man will come
to our Trust Department, we can fill his pre?
scription.
We will take off his shoulders the manage?
ment of his investments and other private interests
and save him many hours of thinking and detail.
For a nominal fee, we will be his financial secretary;
and he will begin to feel immediately the benefit
of "less work, less worry?and more exercise."
Because of our Safe Keeping Service, many
another busy man is spending more time on the
links or exercising in some other congenial way.
His mind is face of the care and responsibilities
he used to believe he "just couldn't get rid of.'*
^The Safe Keeping Account," a little
booklet describing this service, will
be sent you immediately upon request.
