AIM STIES 1 MAY BEPENALIZED' ^OPOSITION IS CONSIDERED FOR DRASTIC AMENDMENT , TO ESCH-CUM MINS LAW. * RESENT LAW 15 INADEQUATE i jblic Opinion is Depended Upon by ( President to Provide the Penalty Without Resort to the Courts. < Washington. ? Having in mind all'1 irentualities, the administration is j' nvassing the alternatives in the 1 ent that a strike should be persist-1( [ in after the Railway Labor Board ' ,o /iniio nil that it ran to adjust the 1 introversy. For the fact is the Esch- j1 rmrnins law, which created the La- \( ?r Board, did not provide penalties 1 r violations of its decisions. Presi- ( :nt Harding hopes that public opin- j? n will provide the penalty?that re- 1 mrse to the courts will be unneces-;1 ,ry. Needless to say that would be;1 solution more in harmony with the ( ishes of the President than any oth-'( . That's why he dismisses as pre-1 i ature all proposals which take into i msideration a possible violation by e unions of the mandate of the railay board. Nevertheless, there is a well defined j eling in administration quarters f hick recognizes that some kind of j policy must be pursued if, indeed, i , iblic opinion does not compel re- j} ect for the decisions of the Railway ibor Board. The policy unquestion?ly will be an amendment to the j sch-Cummins law imposing fines and 1 lprisonment on all persons convict-1 * 1 of inciting strikes or lockouts in < ifiance of the decisions of the Unit- 1 I States Railroad Labor Board. Such , 1 drastic step is inevitable if a strike 1 iculd be called. J. T. Harris Was Electrocuted. Raleigh?J. T.
