Attorney General Tom Clark says the government can seize railroads under a 1996 wartime act and cites a Supreme Court ruling backing presidential war powers. At a White House conference, Labor Secretary Steelman weighs three proposals to avert a railroad strike: push unions to accept the board settlement, reopen direct talks, or delay walkout. A U S. survey outlines dire 24 hour to five day impacts, including factory shutdowns, mass unemployment, and looming shortages.
