Five Railroad Men Comment On Present Trouble In Reno
A Reno Gazette interview of five Southern Pacific workers from Truckee reports mixed views on the labor dispute. Conductors Coats and Guessford and engineers Cunningham Forrest and Raitt say they sympathize with arbitration goals but not the method or the use of SP for motives. They note past fairness from the company and argue the ARU has not treated them justly while admitting they joined by neutral stance and, constrained by their orders, favor peaceable arbitration before broader action.
