Four Brotherhood Leaders May Foil Strike Action
Chicago dispatch reports that Big Four Brotherhoods and allied unions anticipate a strong strike vote among 186 000 trainmen while shop crafts also favor walkouts. Officials expect unity or delays as the United States Railroad Labor Board weighs working rules and wage reductions. President Lee urged restraint last Sept 12 but did not sway the ballots. The Grievance Committee may reconvene to reopen negotiations or set a strike date.
