a
strike
called
by
the
brotherhoods.
In
the
balance
hung
-the
threat
of
complete
paralysis
of
the
country's
economy.
The
railways
were
already
under
federal
control
seized
by
order
of
President
Truman
but
the
big.
question
was
whether
the
quarter
million
trainmen
and
engineers
involved
would
continue
to
work
for
the
gov
ernment
after
the
strike
deadline
set
for
4
pjn.
(local
stand
ard
.time).
Top
union
leaders
insisted
un
til
late
that
the
strike
would
occur
on
schedule.
The
Office
of
Defence
Transportation,
which
took
over
the
railroads
for
the
government,
asserted
it
expected
to
keep
the
trains
running,
although
possibly
at
much
reduced
schedules
If
the
walkout
was
effective.
President
Truman
evidently
banked
heavily
on
his
personal
appeal
to
the
trainmen

the
heads
of
their
lea'ders,

said
"the

and
any
hope
of

it
ended
when
the

left
Washington.
This
did
not
turn
out
to
be
the
case.
The

of

Transportation
in

today
asked
the

and
all
non-rail

systems
to;
prepare
to

Into

Airlines,
water

and

systems
were
asked
to

if
necessary,
what

they

of

There
was
