Road Gives Ultimatum. By the Ausociated Press. NORFOLK, Va, November 9.— Status quo,” which Brotherhood of- ficlals here directing the strike of engineers and firemen on the Virgin- ian railroad explained as meaning “as is and when” the telegram of the United States Rallroad Labor Board fixing November 14 as the date for hearing of the controversy between the road and its employes was re- celved by them after the men quit their posts yesterday morning, will be maintained by the men until after the conference in Chicago next Wed- nesday, Brotherhood leaders declared today. The men have no idea of returning to work by 6 a.m. Saturday, the time set by Vice President C. H. Hix of the Virginian, for them to resume thelr occupations “or be considered out_of the service permanently,” said O. D.

By the Assoelated Preas. NEW YORK, November 9.—The de- partment of international co-opera- tion to prevent war of the National League of Women Voters announced that it had asked 7 clergymen of the nation to perml oman member of their congregations to read a three-minute sermon, “A ‘Woman's Plea for Peace,” on Armistice day, The sermon ‘was prepared by Mise Ruth Morgan and Mrs. Williard Straight, in co-operation with the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America, which has dis- tributed copies to clergy of all de- nominations. Many churches in Kentucky, Wis- consin, California, Mississippi, Towa, Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania, it was reported, will permit women to read the sermon from thelr pulpits. Besides advocating American mem- bership in the proposed World Court of Justice, the sermon says, in part: “Five years ago the war-torn world rejoiced at the coming of peace. We celebrate that day, but with confes- sions of failure and sin. We have not achieved that peace nor realized that justice, Deep hatreds and fears abide, Nations today still compete in pre- paring for war. We ask that each nation be given its rights, that the weak be protected against the strong, and especially that in place of seifish greed and savage resort to brute force, there be a -&Arn of mutual good will, each considering the rights and needs of all.
