Southern strikers meet officials as White House talks unfold
Union leaders including Jewell head of the shopmen's union and Willian Johnston of the machinists held a conference at the White House with President Harding on railway strike issues. They left without a decision on seniority or workers returning to duty, and Harding planned further talks with non‑striking brotherhoods. Conductors in Cedar Rapids said they would not participate, while Cleveland switchmen petitioned for a conference. A federal restraining order in Wilmington bars strike members from interfering with Baltimore and Ohio operations until August 14.
