President Wilson plans to press railroad crisis resolution
President Wilson decided to appear before Congress to urge a legislative program to avert or end the nationwide railroad strike. He discussed a three to four month investigation with eight railroad presidents and four union leaders, and requested withdrawal of the tentative strike. Union leaders insisted on arbitration only through the committee and warned of a possible walkout affecting about 640,000 workers. A Chicago freight-handlers strike threatened shipments and freight movements at the Burlington and Quincy depot, with 600 of 700 workers striking over access to freight houses and dues.
