RUSSIA. COUNTERS
ON Plan OF KNOX
FOREIGN MINISTER SUBMITS
OTHER PROPOSED ROUTES
OF NEW CHINESE ROAD.

st. Petersburg, March In. Iswol-
sky; the foreign minister. has infor-
malIy submitted to the United States
and the other, interested powers the
Russian governments alternative
proposition to that proposed by Sec
rotary Knox relative to the constrnc-
ton. of the Again Chin Chow rail-
road. Instead of this road, Russia
suggests that there shall be construct
ed another Trans Mongolians line fur
Their westward, striking the Trans
Siberian railway near the Balkal line.
This with the extension from Pekin
to Kalgan, would traverse Urga and
Kiakhta, avoiding the desert between
Kalgan and Urga by a wide detour
westward to Puyuan Chen.
This proposition does not meet with
special favor in diplomatic circles
here. 1t is considered to be impracti-
cable and an Improbable venture, in
nowise meeting the conditions which
call for the construction of the Algun-
, Chin CHOW railroad. Well-informed
diplomats are unable. to understand
the fear of Chinese military aggres-
sion, which is the basis of Russia's
objection to the. latter project, nor do
tney take Jne Anlnsse. army seriously.
But anxiety certainly exists.
Russian oficia1s say that China lis
arming against Russia and profess to
believe. that war Is possible. within a
decade. Alarm against the Chinese
has replaced the expectation of a re-
newal of the war between Russia and
Japan. which a few months ago Gre
ated veritable panic among the mil-
itary authorities. The Novoe vremya
and other newspapers, which at that
time predicted war in the spring, are
now campaigning against China. They
call attention to series Of economic
measures undertaken by the Chinese
government, the result of which will
be the forcing of Russians out of Man
churia.

TELEPHONE GIRLS
CANNOT Be SHORT

Washington, March She is not
a telephone girl il she is under ave
feet in height. The companies en-
ploy only girls who can reach the top
of their switchboards and the short
ones never get a chance. Conditions
existing In telephone exchanges
throughout the country are interest
ingly set forth in the report recently
sent to the senate dealing with the in
vestigation made by the bureau of la
Dor.
The bulk of the report deals with
the women employed-there are IT,
210 of them working at the switch
boards for twenty seven companies IN
twenty-six states which furnished the
data. Agents of the bureau visited
seventy three exchanges and found
them, generally speaking, we'll housed
In many cases the girls were com
PEELED to walk up from one to four
flights of stairs and more than two
thirds of the complaints heard were
because of the lack of elevators.
Wages for telephone girls vary from
highest monthly average o. $500 In
New York city to $22.40 i'm Nashville
Tenn. In some of the smaller cities
the average goes even lower, particu-
larly in the south. The Bell company
employees 1926 women operators al
an average monthly wage of S30.91.
In nearly all Offices the operating
force is divided into four general
shifts. Day operators usually work be-
tween a. m. and 1870 p. m. Night
operators usually work beyond mid
night.
Efficient service il possible up tc
225 calls an hour for each girl. She
cannot answer more than that with
out injury to herslef or injuring this
service The bureau has reached the
conclusion that the operator who has
not enough to do to keep her con.
stantly busy. however does not prop
cry attend to what she has.
