Rail strike looms as mediation stalls before dawn
Chicago Wednesday reports Federal mediators racing to avert a crippling rail strike by four systems. Talks with the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen yield little progress as midnight passes. Railroads curtail service and prepare further cuts while unions ready to walk out at dawn. Francis A. ONeill Jr and the National Mediation Board press for a quick settlement but no breakthrough occurs. The Pennsylvania Railroad leadership cites hope of settlement while others threaten skeleton service or embargoes if the strike materializes. Two presidential fact finding boards have already ruled against extra fireman requirements for safety.
