Peace Depends On Railroads Strike Threat In East
New York July 1 A potential strike of over 400000 conductors and trainmen on eastern railroads hangs on whether the railroads drop their refusal to arbitrate. Union leaders Garretson and Tee press for a swift strike order if talks fail, with Washington deliberations on federal mediation possibly delaying action. Railroads warn of widespread disruption if a walkout proceeds, while officials plan a conference in Washington to seek a settlement under federal law.
