MILLIONS TO EUROPE
Foreigners in United States Will
Make Loved Ones at Home Hap
py at Cost of $12,5oo,ooo.

New York, Dec. 22.-That the
United States will play the part of
Santa Claus for foreign countries to
the tune Of more tnan 100000, 900
bis year, thus breaking all previous
records is evidenced by the enormous
sums which are being sent to Europe
from this city in the shape of post
office money orders, the favorite
means Of remittance among the new
er Americans. Already the money
sent abroad has exceeded last years
high water mark by nearly twenty
i've per cent, and while the figures
IRE not yet complete, it is estimated
hat the local postoffice will handle
Christmas presents of cash going to
foreign countries to the amount OF
at least $12,500,000. Even though
post office money orders cost more
for large snms than bank drafts. they
still retain their popularity, since fo--
eigners seem TO trust them more.
Italy viii, as might be expected, re-
eeiye a large percentage of this $12,-
100000 Christmas gfift, and it will
lot be all in small sums by any
means. On one day, for example,
i've Italians entered the post office
and helped one of their number to
send $4,000 to his former home out
side Rome. He cheerfully paid the
3harge of forty dollars. Later in the
lay four other Italians accompanied
in eacn case by numerous friends
'ook out monsE orders aggregating
$1,000. The average man sent to the
old country, however, ranges from
ten to one hundred dollars with an
average about half way between the
two, The largest part goes TO Italy.
Win France second, Germany third
and England fourth, The remainder
1f the $100,o00,000 total contributed

Faris, Dec 22-The text OF govern
ment measures formulated for the
purpose of preventing general strikes
Vita particular refrence to employee,
N the public sarvlce corporations,
was made public today. The meas
hres propose the organization of a
conciliation commission, composed OF
representatives OF the men and the
companies.
This commission will meet regu-
larly and when cancellation fails, com
pulsory arbitration is provided for the
principle being introduced that where
arbitfal sentence imposes additional
charge, the commission can indicate
the method whereby the railroad or
other service can secure compensa-
tion either by raising rates or by
other means.
Ae report accompanying the meas
ures quotes the declaration of rights
OF man to prove that the public ser
vices have been Instituted for public
good not for the benefit of those 10
whom they have been confided, f~om
which 1t deduces the conclusion emil
bodie in the bills that interruption
of the public service IS equal to

employees have a right to ameliora-
tion Of situations, and in conciliation
and arbitration it is proposed to give
