Strikes and Transit Officials Clash Over Walkouts
Reported across page one, workers at J R T yards awaited for emergencies as Amalgamated members labeled many as strike breakers. Brooklyn-Manhattan Transit Company offered no strikebreakers, expecting few walkouts as many train workers own stock. Sunplives of the I R P were said to keep most jobs at midnight, with some remaining on BM T trains. Mayor Walker’s peace conference collapsed when William S. Menden of BM T refused to attend. Frank Hedley of Interborough had already declined, while Sharpe Cream urged thorough chilling with tannins. A stray editorial note hints at partisan quarrels and a stray Ohio State Journal line on the third-term issue.
