Ramuel flompers, president of tho
American Federation of Labor, hns taken
personnl command of the union forces
In their light to prevent Now York from
becoming an "open shop" town. Mr.
Oompors nrrlvad yesterdny f'on' Wash
ington and Immediately called a meeting
of labor chlcfrt nt tho Continental Hotel,
They agreed to act only under hli dlrec.

JamuH P. Holland, president of the
Htnto Federation of Labor, said tho
unions will sit tight until some dctl
nlto step Is taken by the Citizens'
Transportation Committee, which Is
organizing n f&OO.OOO Independent
trucking corporation,
Mr. Goinpers announced last night.
Juit before ho began his speech In the
debate with Gov. Henry J. Allen of
Kansas at Carnegie Hall, that he had
boon authorized by the labor unions In
volved In the harbor strike to say that
they are willing to submit tho trouble
to arbitration nnd that tliuy will pledge,
themiolveii In advance to abide by tho
award. Mr. Oompers snld:
'I doslro to say that In order to ad
just the differences which nre now oc
cupying the minds of the poeple of New
lork I had a conference with the rep
resentative men engaged In the contro-
crsy on our water fronts, nnd I am
authorized by them to say here nnd
now that they are willing to submit
their matters In controversy to fair and
Impartial arbitration, and pledge them
selves In advance to abide by th.'
award; and that when the companies'
managements agree to that tho men
will return to work within six hours
from that notification."
It Is not known what effect tho an
nouncement of Mr. Gompers will havo
on tho campaign begun by the Mer
chants Association nnd other organiza
tions against the unions which have
caused. tho freight tleup. The offer of
arbitration is apparently directed only
toward the steamship companies whose
longshoremen are on strike and will not
nffoct Immediately the whole question
of open or closed shop.
James V. Holland, president of the
State Federation of Labor, said yester
day that the union will sk tight until
some definite step is taken by the Citi
zens Committee, which Is organizing a
1500,000 Independent trucking corporation,

president of the longshoremen's union
nnd heard their side of the (Depute. He
nlso got In touch with Alfred E. Mar

Mr. Marling has an appointment to
meet Gov. Smith nt the Hotel Ulltmore
this morning. The facts then will be
placed before the Governor's Labor
Board, which will try to avert a breach
on tho open chop question.
The union leaders who attended Mr.
Gompers's council of wnr were James

president of tho Transportation Trades

After the meeting Mr. Gompers re
fused to make any statement. It be
came known, however, that he was
pleased with the firm stand the trade
unions had taken. It was sold that ho
would remain here until the situation
clears up.
Much indlgnntlon was expressed by
local business men by the appearance

that If the award did not suit the-men
the brotherhoods might be forced to ac
quiesce In the strikes now In effect,
marked the closing to-day of the rull
wage hearlnrr before tho United States
ltnllrond Labor Hoard.
II. M. Jewell, president of the railroad
shopmen, voiced the foregoing warnings
Epcclflrnlly In closing the case for the
employes, 'but similar statements had
previously been made by the heads of
the other brotherhooiK
"Is this an announcement that any
award of less than n basis of $2,500 a
enr for common labor will not be ac
ceptable?" asked Chairman Rarton of
the board.
"It would not be consldei'cd reasonable
nnd Just." returned Mr. Jewell. "We
cannot predict what thu men actually
will hold as acceptable."
The question of the chairman wns
caused by the coupling of Mr. Jewell's
Cat stand for n $2,500 minimum, with
the following closing statement of his
nddress :
"We appeal to your board to give a
quick and favorable award to all rail
road employees coming within tho acopo
of the transportation net. This Is abso
lutely necessnry In order to avoid a
state of affairs arising wherein we can
not control tho situation. Unless a
prompt award Is made we may find tt
absolutely necessary In order to preserve
these standard recognized railroad or
ganizations not only to refrain from try
ing to keep them In service, but to ac
quiesce In the action of thoso who leave
the service.
"We heads of the organizations know
railway labor la leaving this employment.
If we nre to have efficient trnnsporta'
tlon, we must retain etllclent men In the
sen-Ice by giving them fair and reason
able pay," said Timothy Shea, vice-
president of the Brotherhood of Iocomo-
tlve Firemen and Engineers." ,
"We believe the public Is more In
terested now In efficient service and a
stable condition of nffalrs thnn In the
rates paid the railroads," said U E.
Shepard. head of the conductors. "The
public wants a lasting peace nnd n guar
antee of uninterrupted transportation."
"The need of keeping transportation
lines open makes It ndvlsable for this
board to make a wage award at the
earliest possible moment." said AVarren
S Stone of tho engineers. "We wnnt to
bo able to say to the employees that this
award Is reasonable and should be
obeyed."
Mr. Darton promised the rail men that
the board would act with all the speed
consistent wlah arriving at a just de
cision and lasting peace In railway
operation.
At the close of the rail men's state
ment the board adjourned until Tuesday,
