Railroads sue Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen for strike damages
Ten railroads filed a federal suit seeking damages from the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen over a four day strike that began March 31. They seek contempt fines of 50,000 dollars against the union and 5,000 dollars against president H E Gilbert. The railroads cited wage losses and estimated daily costs but have not yet totaled damages. Gilbert declined comment pending the suit copy as relations with the union remain strained since 1925. The 8,000 firemen strike affected 38 states and ended under federal court pressure.
