Two Million Men Refuse Conference Over Union Representation

Washington October 3 Railroad unions representing more than seven million workers will not participate in President Wilsons industrial conference next Monday unless chief executives of all international and national unions are included. Timothy Shea of the Brotherhood of Wiremen said the change, urged by Director General Hines, has not been approved and no reply is expected. The four brotherhoods predict nonparticipation and it is believed the 14 affiliated unions with the AFL may also stay away. The dispute arose over whether all four delegates be from the brotherhoods or include AFL affiliated unions represented by AFL. The rail employes department contends for direct representation by appointment of part of the four. Mr Hines has tried to resolve the issue without success. Shea says absence of official union representation may hinder expert advice at the conference.
