Reply of Managers to United States Strike Commissioners Report
The Railway Age will print a reply by managers to the strike commission report. They challenge alleged inaccuracies and argue the report distorts facts about wage cuts, the Pullman strike, and union influence, asserting errors undermine the report’s credibility and public trust in capital. The managers promise a detailed, nonpartisan response once criticisms are reviewed.
