TO DELAY STRIKE

Federal law to tie Invoked br the

railroads to Interpose a double block on

the plan of the trainmen's brotherhoods

to tie up tho railroad trafflo of the

country next Monday morning. The

first of the obstructive methods will be

an effort to gain n delay of the strike

delay will go far toward breaking the

backbone of the strike, which ticces-

sarlly depends on concerted action for

effectiveness. The. second means will be

In tho uso of thi courts to force at

least 100,000 of the strikers to man their

train despite the. brothehnods' edict.

Until these methods, devised as a pri

mary step by the railroad board of
