Stone predicts 98 percent of rail workers back strike
Warren G Stone, grand chief of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, says about 98 percent of members balloting on wage cuts will vote for a strike.

Menoher Seeks Relief From Army Air Service Post
Major General Charles T. Menoher, chief of the Army Air Service since 1918, asks Secretary Weeks to relieve him and assign him to field command. The move follows months of friction with Brigadier General William Mitchell over administrative policy, notably the treatment of non flying officers. Weeks has not acted and notes such requests are usually granted for high ranking officers on special duty. The inquiry references a Mitchell report on air power versus surface ships and recalls Menoher’s WWI command in the Rainbow Division from Chateau Thierry through the Argonne-Meuse.
