Signalmen Postpone Strike for Present Pending Negotiations

Chicago, July 11.--The Brotherhood of Railroad Signalmen will not strike, for the present at least, according to a statement issued Tuesday by D. W. Helt, president of the organization. The decision was reached after a conference between the executive board of the union and the railroad labor board.

Mr. Helt's statement said that the signalmen would take up all questions of disagreement with the roads separately, and in case an understanding could not be arrived at, the matter would be taken up again with the labor board.
