Actually, the strike threat Is direct ed. not against ihe railways, but against the railway labor hi ard and Its rulings, and this fact has aroused the administration to the determina tion that the orders of the hoard shall not be flouted by either the em ployees or the roads. The trouble Is that the Cummlns-Esch act does not provide |»enaltie» or give the board powers to enforce Its own findings. This defect came prom nently to the sentence of the convicted men in Mas sachusetts lias been deferred pendiug a plea for a new trial. On Monday General F’ershlng laid the congressional medal on the grave of the unknown warrior in Westmin. ster abbey, America thus paying the highest possible honor to the gallant dead of Great Britain.

If the railway brotherhoods carry ««t tbelr threat to go on strike on October 30. the walk out will not be general. Most. If not all, tjf the eleven unions affiliated with the “big flve** brotherhoods will refuse to go out with the latter. , The railway mana gers, with the aid of loyal employees, lieoalonera and volunteers, will !>e able to give the country at least a lim ited aervire. The s>ni|>athy of the Amerirau public will not be with the strikers. For all these reasons, the •trike will be virtually a failure. Ruoh was the prediction of compe tent and unbiased observers of the critical situation of last week. Spurred by the administration to quick and decisive action, the railway labor board went to Chicago and called the heads of the brotherhoods Into conference with It there. The proceedings were secret, and the union chiefs were given the oppor tunity to talk frankly and freely. Be fore leaving Washington the “public , group" of the b<»ord consulted at length with President Harding and with the members of the interstare commerce commission, and It was gl/- j en out that ihe |N»llcy sanctioned by the administration Included these main points: I.
