Firemen Leader Comments on Possible Erie Strike
Buffalo November 14 Henry Hanvey chairman of a lodge committee reports we expect railroad action to satisfy firemen demands. Erie firemen voted strike but federation consent may block action. An interview with BB Burris of the Lake Shore union caused fear locally, Burris denies authority to speak for Lake Shore firemen. A lodge meeting authorized transfer officer Thomson to state Burris had no authority. We have no quarrel with engineers and do not anticipate trouble with Lake Shore officials.
