LYNCH CHICAGO, Sept. 2,—The strike of 400,000 shopmen continued without change today, despite the drastic injunction to end it granted the United States gov- ernment yesterday. Persistent reports circulated today that If leaders of the shop- men refused to abide by the terms of the injunction, the Unit- ed States army would be called out to protect the railroads, Strike leaders recovered from the bombshell thrown yesterday by At- torney Genera! Daugherty, and made no move to check the strike. A guarded statement of the head quarters of the federated shop crafts declared that organisation would sup- port the government's efforts to “and lawleseness and violence in connec tlon with the strike.” The statement declared, however, “tt ean hardly be assumed that the federal court intended to restrain those lawful acts necessary tn carry: ing on the legitimate work of labor organizations.” Bert M. Jewell, president of the shop crafts, left Chicago hurriedly for the East, with the avowed inten. tlon of “staying there until the strike le over.” Tt was reported that Jowell went to Cleveland to confer with ders of t tig Four" brotherhoods, Jel n Scott, secretary to Jewell, de- clared that tf the tnjunetion was lived up to to the letter, continuation Of the strike would be impoastble, United States marshals contin. ued efforts to serve subpoenas on the 13 members of the shopmen’s organization, named in the tn- Junction, The court held, however, that publication of the Injunction would be equivalent to personal service, Union leaders speculated as to how | tar the fovernment would go tn backing the court order. They point jed out that a mere grimace or word of encouragement to a striker would make the giver lable to contempt of court ‘The government stood ready to take even more drastic steps, It was indicated Use of atate and national troops jand the issuing of reeetverships for all roads were among the measures considered, Few of those named tm the tnfune- tion could be found today and amon, those who were located there was general disinclination to discuss the injunction. Leaders apparently walted to see what the government was going to do next. It was learned on good authority that netther of the leaders of the shop crafts had ftaaued any state ment whatever to the 400,000 mem: bers on strike, ‘This indicated that the atrilre lead. era were firm tn their determination to carry on the walkout despite the action of Attorney General Daugh- erty. Trusts Fight Ford — |MINER BURIED on Shoals Project} ALIVE; RESCUED BY ROBERT TALLEY WASHINGTON, Sept 2—It may be risky to hazard predictions, but here's one that bears the earmarks of a cold, hard fact: Henry Ford worlt get Muscle shoals from the government. On the surface, Ford's offer ap- pears to be rocking along in con- gresa with an even chance of accept- ance. But behind the scenes it is ao @ifferent story. Recent developments seem to confirm the suspicion al -lready held and make It evident that the administration haa etacked the | cards against him. Speaking privately, some of Ford's strongest friends in congress will tell jyou that they do not believe Ford jhas a chance, Yet, they shushingly decline to be quoted.

The wide. spread demand for a general strike will be discussed by the council. Gompers stated that neither he nor the council had the authority to call a general strike, This power reats with the individual unions, The council, however, wields a powerful influence and its recommendations in the present case would be accept- ed almost as a mandate, one union leader declared. Administration officials, however, scott at talk of a sympathetic strike. They do not believe that Gompers would recommend one. The fear of prosecution under the conspiracy statutes would keep the other union leaders in line, they said. Federal troops will not be used un ti! all other means of enforcing the injunction fall, a high administration official stated today. He believes the loca} police, railroad guards and United States marshals will be able to meet the situation. Should these forces, alded by addi. ltional deputy marshals, fail to keep a check on violence, state troops would be sent to their aid, and, if nécessary, federal troops pressed into service, he stated. President Harding is thoroly tn ac- cord with Daugherty’s action, It was made known at the White House.

Outlines Plea for Injunction CHICAGO, Sept, 2.—Asking for an linjunction to tie the hands of strik ling shopmen, Attorney General | Daugherty cited the following state ments in support of his petition: 1—That $75,000,000 worth of Call- fornia food was destroyed in Califor: nia alone due to the strike. 2—Twenty-five thousand coal cars and 100 mail cars were abandoned. 3—Four thousand cars were dam- aged by vandals. 4—Workors tarred and feathered and threatened and bombs thrown at trains and bridges dynamited. 6—Twenty-five murders commit- ted. 6—Fifty per cent of the engines of the country are out of commission.
