SHOP MEN GET CALL OUT ORDER. (Continued From First Page.) The situation for picketing and conducting the strike in an orderly manner. From all parts of the country reports indicated shop union members would walk out solidly. Although the railroad managers were certain there would be no interruption in traffic in case a strike should materialize, preparations were being made to handle freight by fleets of motor trucks and by waterway. J. P. Hoynes, traffic director of the Chicago Association of Commerce, has left for Washington with Federal authorities regarding organization of a truck fleet. All trucks and boats used during the traffic tieup of 1920 are listed and will be used in case of emergency. Haynes stated. Hooper, in a long statement, defended action of the labor board in recent decisions cutting wages. CLEVELAND, O., June 30.— (United Press)—Initial action in the threatened strike of railroad workers tomorrow was Taken by the lug railroad brotherhoods today, members of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen throughout the United States were ordered not to perform any of the work usually done by the strikers. Members of the Brotherhood of Firemen and Enginemen are to rest at the headquarters of the brotherhoods. The orders were issued by Warren S. Stone, president of the engineer and W. O. Lee head of the trainmen. The instructions mean, it was explained, that the engineers and trainmen are forbidden to couple or uncouple cars or to clean an engine after the crew has left it. WASHINGTON, June 30.—(United Press).—High administration officials today entertained strong hopes that the threatened railroad strike would be averted. In spite of the fact that the 400,000 members of the shop unions are under orders to stop work at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning, these officials anticipate action sometime today to postpone the strike, pending discussions for settlement of the controversy. No matter what happens, however, Washington will keep "hands off" until the "public interest is jeopardized." It was emphasized. Feeling is general that the strike will be averted as happened in 1918 and 1919 on the eve of threatened walkouts. Officials of the A. F. of L. here feel that the strike would be most unprofitable from labor's viewpoint. Government officials pointed out that as the proposed strike does not include "key workers" the railroads would be able to take care of their business with little difficulty. Even should the carrier permit all repair work to lapse it would be several months before any serious curtailment of activity would be felt. It is said. The railroads, however, have advised the government that in the event of a walkout all repair work will be let out to private shops immediately, thus insuring no Interruption in their schedules. The Department of Justice issued a statement that the government would not interfere unless called upon as a result of a possible harm to public welfare at which proper steps would be taken. President Harding has the matter well in hand and understands all phases of the situation, one official declared. "The Department of Justice will take no part in the matter unless the public welfare is threatened. It is not thought, however, that such will be necessary. Department of Commerce officials appeared undisturbed. If the strike comes, "the railroads will run away" was the sole comment. GET STRIKE CALL National Body Orders Them to Lay Down Tools Saturday Morning CALL MEETINGS FOR TONIGHT Orders to suspend all work at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning, were received by the loaders of the six Wilmington railroad shop crafts and Pullman workers affiliated with the Railway Employees Department of the American Federation of Labor late yesterday. These orders will be discussed at a meeting of shop men at the Odd Fellows' Building tonight. The Pullman workers, who were laid off several days when the local plant shut-down, will also meet tonight in the Irish-American Building. According to information issued by local labor leaders, 1100 of the 1400 employed at the Todd Cut shops of the Pennsylvania Railroad system, will be affected by the strike order. The maintenance of way employees upon whom local union leaders have never counted for support, especially since most of them joined the company union, are not affected by the strike order. In fact, their elimination from any participation in the strike was evidenced by the acceptance this week of a wage reduction by maintenance of way employees on the Pennsylvania System, affecting about 40,000. The telegram to local shop crafts, including the strikers from Kansas City, is signed by Martin F. Ryan, and reads as follows: "In compliance with the strike vote of shop crafts employees below the rank of general foreman are hereby granted sanction to suspend work at 10 a.m. July 1 on all railroads and Pullman shops in the United States. Notify all outside points. Wire number responding and number remaining at work."

W. C. Mills. The board is composed of representatives from each of the six shop crafts, boilermakers, blacksmiths, machinists, electrical workers, car men and sheet metal workers.

He was taken into custody by Justice of Peace Dutton, of this place, pending the arrival of his employer. The Negro, however, was permitted to go this morning, after eye-witnesses had testified that it had been accidental.
