Government injunction against railroad strike leaders
In Chicago on September 4 the U.S. government, led by Attorney General Harry M. Daugherty, won a temporary injunction in federal court against the railway employees department of the American Federation of Labor. Judge James H. Wilkerson restrained interviews, funding, picketing, parading, and urging quit actions, with U.S. marshals to serve processes nationwide. The ruling frames the open shop as essential to liberty while warning unions against dictating to government or endangering the public.
