Chicago, July 19.—Failure of all
efforts to bring about the settlement
of the country-wide strike of the
railway shopmen was announced in a
statement issued tonight by Ben W.
Hooper, chairman of the Unite*’
States railroad labor board.
“As there does not seem to be any
possibility of reconsiling the anti-
poal views of the carriers and the
men on the question at issue, the
labor board and none of its mem
bers are now engaged in any further
efforts along that line,” the state
ment said.
At the same time the statement
pointed out that virtual agremont
had been reached between the va’l
beads and the strike leaders on all of
the five points in dispute except that
of the return to the strikers of their
seniority rights, an accidental ques
tion which was not originally in dis
pute between the roads and their
men.
