WASI'WQTON April 10 Orde-.s
went out today to United states district
attorneys to Investigate the "unauth-
otized" railroad strikes in theh dU-
trl"ts to deterjnlne whether there has
Lien any "Joint action" designed to In-
terfere with the distribution of neccs-
sliles of life or whether such Interfer-
ence was contemplated.
Attorney Oeneral Palmer who Is U
Savannah tla . In making this an-
ncuncement said that such "Joint ac
tiun" would be unlawful. He added
that the federal government would
take no steps until an Inquiry had bm
n'ade to ascertain the exact facts. Mr.
Palmer Instructed Assistant Attorney
(U-iieral Ames to act on his own Judg
ment should the situation I e round to
warrant it.
Mr. Ames steadfastly refused to com-
mont on devulopments Jn the strike
situation.
Although the strike apparently was
sheading rapidly especially In the

l (eyed the authorized leaders of the
railroad unions would be able to eon
tioi the situation without the govern-
mtnt's interference. Government ma-
chineo. however was remly to move
si ould this finally be de-ided upon.
V. hat the first step would be was not
decided.

ri.ttee oompleted plans today foi It
li.xestlgation of the strike Hearings
will begin Tuesday.
While Mr Ames refused to dlseus
the situation other officials of the de
railment pointed out that two courses
of precedure were open If the govern
ment decided to take a nana in seitnn;
the strike. The government thay said
could seek criminal indictments und.
