"Our men declined to work far the wages and under the conditions prescribed by the orders of the labor board, the jurisdiction of which they had previously invoked to their own benefit. "The j president of the United States mediated in an attempt to ad just the dispute and made a proposition to both parties. "The shop crafts accepted this proposition. "The Southern Railway system notified the shop crafts that it also accepted the president's proposition and invited ail its men to return to work with their seniority unimpaired.

"During this period the round house work which has made it possi ble so to carry on has been done by officers and loyal employes of other departments of the service. "It now seems that there is no hope of an early national settlement of the strike. "The foregoing statement of developments step by step is given you in order that vou may have an a no re* * ciation of the situation of the Southern Railway system in its relations with its shop crafts up to the moment' cf the present crisis. 0;ve a Duty "We owe you a duty wit'n which we cannot longer compromise. Therefore, today I gave out the following public statement: 'Every effort has 'reen made so i to operate our property that jur men I could honorably return to work. Ev-J ery effort has been made to settle j with our men, we have gone to the extent of offering the terms that l they had previously agreed to accept. We have thus held out everv reason-' able inducement, without result. " 'We must now turn to employing ! others, for the roaci must be - tin; we must g:ve those we employ protec- j tion, for, it may be that those we | have up to this time protected by I keeping their jobs open may now ; turn against us, even to an attempt to prevent others from working. Support is Asked " 'Call is now made upon every employee, upon every patron, of this company, and upon every citizen along its lines, to rally to the Mipport of the road that has served you ,\rA ! protect your own interest in the1 maintenance of transportation. With i your help we can run the road, and : we pledge all the resources of the ' company to that end. if it means ; I war to run tne Southern railway, j tiun let us nave it now?not iuUt.' ( . "The new men which w? xvill now1 employ must be protected in their inali? nable ri^chi to work through the! machinery provided by the law of the land. We will invoke that law where found necessary. We are as- : sured of the support of the national government in the stand wo have taken and we now ask for the coon- ! eration and assistance of tne state, countv and municipal governments.". DR.
