In Chicago a joint conference of railway labor and rail presidents rejected a compromise proposal for a 61-3 percent wage cut for one year. The meeting, which began at 9:30 a.m., aimed to reach accord on a 10 percent wage reduction proposal for the railroads.
A witness described an ambulance siren and a motorcycle escort as the man rushed to Harper home then High Point. He dropped a young woman at her home and went to the Sheraton Hotel where news spread that Holton had been shot. He then went to Guilford General Hospital where R B Holton appeared. The judge halted testimony and adjourned court for the day.
