 As the brotherhood men saw the situation tonight, only two steps could prevent a walkout. Those are for the railroads to withdraw thell, insistence upon arbitration for all or the demands of the men. or for the government to take over the railroads for operation for the duration of the strike. Little confidence was ex- pressed that the railroad heads would recede. but the men professed to see great hopes of government operation of the lines. particularly after the presidents visit to congress. Just what these hopes were based upon was not apparent.
 If a strike should come. it was learned tonight, it probably will not become operative for about a week. The brotherhood men, while they have the right to declare a strike from here, probably would not do SC until the representatives leaving to- day and tomorrow had talked the situation over with their local com mittee. Some of them could moi reach home in less than five days.
 Considering the strain under which they were waiting, the employees rep resentatives were remarkable calm l today. No demonstration occurred al any of their meetings The brother hood heads did not address any of the meetings. Ttev promised to call at the hall If they heard from the White House but failing to hear they did not go near it nor communl cate with the men there.

STEPS TAKEN BY CANADA
TO GUARD AGAINST RAIDS
All the Frontiers and Important
Government Works Closely
Watched, It Is Reported.

All the frontiers and important gov
eminent works of the Dominion OF
Canada are carefully guarded against
the possibility of invasion, according
to James Tharp of Toronto, who IS no"
visiting in Washington.
Canada will soon have ready the
100000 men asked for by the BRUSH
war Office" said Mr.. Tharp. Thus FAR
more than 100000 men have been en-
listed, and. if necessary. we can SEND
an additional 100000 to the front.
This may seem an extraordinary
number of men for country OF the
population of Canada, for it would rep
resent approximately 10 per cent OF the
population. but in a country as young
as Canada the percentage OF men
available for military service IS con-
siderably greater than in an oldef ma
ton.
with all Of these men being called
to the front we still have enough de-
tenders for our own protection against
possible invasion. Ever since the war
began there has been a large force OF
soldiers patrolling the Welland canal
and the Victoria bridge across the 81;
Lawrence river at Montreal. Additional
have been taken, ana now
every possible approach to Canada that
could be taken advantage of by an IN
vading force is adequately patrolled.

Prizes for the persons seeing the first

free TO every one reporting a real first
robin, a beautiful colored picture of
robin red breast. The association also
will send cock robins life history, telling
where he travels. what he eats and how
he builds his nest
NO bird holds so prominent a place in
the minds of the American people as the
robin. said Mr.. Pearson, in discussing
the approaching return of the bird to the
north. 1T is distinctively companion of
man, and wherever his hand has cleared
the wilderness the robin has followed
1t, and residents will tell him CT its COM
ing and going. 1t has passed into the
literature Of the country.
Our interest in having the return of the
robin reported to US and to local dailies
is to keep alive the interest which grown
ups are otherwise likely to lose ANY one
