FAR SWEEPING IS
INJUNCTION AGAINST
STRIKING UNIONS
Attorney General Gets Powerful In
junction From Federal Court at
Chicago Against Shop Crafts
Unions Now On Strike.
Chicago, Sept. 1. Attorney Geenral
Harry M. Daugherty in the District
Federal Court at noon today obtained
from Judge J. H. Wllkerson the most
sweeping temporary Injunction against
labor unions ever Issued by a Federal
court. Tho Attorney General was ac
companied by Bluckburn Esterllne, As
sistant Solictor General, and a swarm
of other assistants from the Washing
ton office.
The injunction Is directed against
the six chopcrafts now involved in a
life and death struggle with the rail
roads. The temporary inpunction
makes it a punishable offense to carry
on the strike, to support the strikers,
which incidentally means to collect
ifiilon dues and pay the strike bene
fits or to obstruct railroad transporta
tion In any way.
It restrains shopmen from "interfer
ing with the repair, Inspection and
operation of trains, locomotives and
cars."
It restrains the shopmen and others
from "conspiring or agreeing with
other organizations to obstruct trans
portation.'
The open shop is Indorsed and sup
ported. Tho document restrains shop
men from attending public mass meet
Ings. Jeers, humiliating epithets
taunts or threats ore barred. It re
strains the shopmen from giving or
causing newspaper interviews to be
published.
Excerpts from the Attorney Gen
eral's plea follow:
I will use the power of the Govern
ment of the United States, within my
control, to present the labor union of
the country from destroying the open
shop."
'No union or combination of unions
can, under our laws, dictate to the
American people."
"No labor leader or capitalistic lead
er, no organization or association of
any kind will be permitted by the
Government of the United States to
laugh in the frozen faces of'a famish
ing people, without prompt prosecu
tion and proper punishment."

GENERAS STRIKE
IS URGED AFTER
INJUNCTION ISSUE
President Gompcrs Is Asked to Rec
ommend a General Sympatheie
Walkout as Result of Rail
Injunction.
Washington, Sept 2. Threat of
widespread Industrial warfare hung
over tire country today as a result of
the sweeping injunction obtained by
Harry M. Daugherty, attorney general,
against the striking railroad shopmen.
Demands for a general sympathetic
strike poured In on Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Federation
of Labcr, from all ports of thcountry.
The !3sue of a general strike wtll be
placed before the executive council of
the American Federation at a meeting
here next week, Gompers said.
Gonif3r3 and other labor leaders
here cnaracterized the federal injunc
tion restraining the strikers andTheir
leaders from interfering In any way
with transportation, including giving
out of interviews, as "one of the most
outrageous pieces of business In the
history of the country."
William II. Johnston, president of
the International Association of Ma
chinists, one of the shopcrafta' organ
izations on strike, assorted he would
continue to exercise his constitutional
rights.
This, with the statement of Gompers
that the strikers and their leaders
would not permit abridgement of the
rights guaranteed them by the consti
tution, was accepted as indicating that
the shopmen would defy those parts of
the Injunction dealing 'with assembly
and speech.
