PROTECTION FROM PARILYSIS
Samuel Gompers Saya Injunction Will
' Only Bring In Nmv and Disturbing
Isauea to Complicate Situation.
Washington.—Railroad union offi
cials conferring-with Attorney General
Palmer, entered no protest against the
injunction issued in Indianapolis
against calling of thfe coal strike, and
tendered the good offices of their or
ganizations in attempting to arrange a
settlement of the strike.
Mr. Palmer said he told the union
that tttey were, at liberty to.,say
to either side in the strike that the
President, was ready ‘ta.actjnunfediate
ly to have the controversy settled
amicably whenever the strike was
called off.
, •
President Gompens and other offi
cials of the Ameiican Federation ol
Labor were said, however, to have
urged their views on the matter of the
injunction in their conference with the
attorney general.
“I explained the necessity for the
action,” Mr. Palmer said.
“This is the government itself, us
ing its own courts to protect itsell
from paralysis. It is not an injunction
obtained by employers, not for the ben
eflt of employers, not to settle the con
troversy, but to save the people of the
entire country from disaster. It doesn’t
affect the right of a man to work when
he pleases.”
Samuel Gompers, speaking for of
ganized labor, declared the injunction
in the coal strike case “can only result
in creating new and more disturbing
issues which may not be confined
solely to the miners.”
