MEN ARE PUT BACK TO WORK Traffic Picks Up on Pennsylvania and New Locomotives Are
 Ordered.
(WNU News Service.O


 Philadelphia, July S.-While no of. ficial information can be obtained. it is understood from authentic sources that the Pennsylvania railroad has ordered all the men who were laid off in the various departments a few months ago to report for duty. It is said vacations which have been cur tailed would be given as usual.
 Official orders have been given by the Pennsylvania to its Altoona shops to proceed with the construction of Si locomotives, the remainder of it's 1914 provision for motive power equip ment, The locomotives will cost about $1,6S0.000
 Last year the company ordered or built it's freight and passenger loco, motives, valued at approximately S7,S0S000. A few weeks ago there were 300 locomotives idle on the Pennsylvania system, which, at $20,000 each, represented idle capital of $6,000,000. Traffic has shown a big improvement since then, because of the movement of grain.

It's truly astonishing how quickly it

SHIP BILL ON

POUNDS HARD ON CON-
TRABAND QUESTION
Danger of Complications
with Warning Ma
tons

Washington. Dec. 3l--The administra'
tons plans for the passage OF the ship
purchase bill as reluctantly Indicated nj
the White House yesterday morning in
wolves the passage OF the bill first
through the Senate. After the bill is
acted upon by that body it is believed
that the House will "come to time" more
promptly. In a statement made public
yesterday Secretaries McAdoo and Red
field advocate the bill as means of re-
ducing ocean freight rates. This state
ment is taken here as being the first gun
in the presidents campaign for his pet
measure and the administration open
efforts will undoubtedly be redoubled.
The reluctance OF the House to take
up the bill has been matter OF disap-
Ipointment to the president and his
friends. Ever since late last session the
rules committee has had ready to report
TO the House at Il signal from the presi-
dent the special gag" rule which would,
liz adopted, mean the virtual passage of
the bill through the lower chamber So
strong. however, has been the opposition
TO the measure that the White House
concluded that it was inadvisable to take
the bill up in the House and risk almost
certain ignominious defeat there From
political consideration alone. defeat at
he hands of the Senate would be bet
ter for the administration than defeat
at the hands OF the House In the ship
purchase bill the president is endeavor
ing to rally to his support the radical
elements OF his party, and il is unques-
tionably the fact that for him to be OPP
posed in a government ownership fight |
BY the Senate would strengthen his |
hand with the people who still believe !
the Senate to be erich mems club" and I!
a reactionary institution.
The administration is not. of course. !
giving the public any indication of the |
number of votes for this bill upon which |
it can count from the Senate. Heads |
have been counted, however, and the gen.
eral conclusion has been reached that the |
time i ripe to risk a rollcall at an early
date in the Senate Pressure upon adj
senators is therefore being
and friendly overtures are be-
ing made to senators OF the other party
who are known in any way to favor the
measure.
Opponents Of the bill believe that the
serious turn which has been given to the
nontraband question bv the American
protest to Great Britain will have an inn
portant bearing on the enactment OF shin
