WILSON
To ENTER
THE FIGHT
BY RoBERT ]. BENDER.

WASHINGTON, Nov 1S-President
Wilson today was preparing personally
TO enter the great three-cornered fight
between labor, the railroads and the
government in proposals for the preven-
tion of strikes in this country.
Monday he will confer with Judge
Adamson. chairman of the house com
mittee on interstate commerce, as to
the completion of the program he ad-
vanced at the last session of congress
Adamson says this program will be
pushed through Immediately when con-
gress reconvenes in December and that
it may be found inadvisable even to
await the report Of the joint congress
sional committee authorized to make
searching inquiry into the entire rail-
road problem.
With the railroads a unit in combat
ing the constitutonality of the eight

posaIs for settlement of industrial dis
putes by legislation and with members
Of congress widely divided on these
questions, the railroad problem threat
ems seriously to embarrass the smooth
operation Of legislative machinery at
this session.
,rhere are as yet four proposals in
the presidents program of the strike
settlement and prevention to be acted
upon if he holds to his original pro-
gram. These include:
Provision for enlargement and re-
organization of the interstate commerce
commission.

$3.50. was dismissed in the superior
rourt this morning, when a settlement

The hearing was originally set for
FRIDAY. but Mr. Gastel convinced the
plaintiffs that hs business was alto

twenty-four hours in which TO liquidate

The fact that Mr.. Gastei was able to

the best evidence that he is solvent

Urges Italians to Respect Laws.

Rev. Alphonse Gaudino. diocesan
missionary to. the italian speaking
Catholic population Of Louisiana, was
the Italian priest who presided over
the imposing service for the dead at
the funeral of Matteo Randazzo last
week. In their native tongue Father
Gaudino explained eloquently to the
large assemblage the value Of human
life. and the terrible responsibilities
encountered by anyone who takes the
life of his brother and illustrates the
will Of God and the laws of man. He
concluded his address by urging his
hearers to be SO prepared spiritually
and otherwise as to be ready. at any
time to meet their Master and Judge,
enjoining them at the same time to
strive to merit the esteem and respect
Of persons Of other nationalities in
this vast republic. After the service
at the church the funeral eortege
wended it's way to the cemetery,
where the new tomb in which the body
was to be, placed was blessed.

George Gullatta, a New Orleans at

ing the latter's son and nephew, Frank
and Salvador. .Randaxzo, in AN attack
at the Randazzo store Thursday night
of last week. ), Mr.. Gullatta is a
nephew Of Paul Fontana, and former
ly resided in Donaldsonville, having
graduated from St. Joseph's CONNER
cial Institute in this city a few years
ago. He will probably associate local
counsel with him in defending the ae-
cused men, both of whom protest their
innocence of the crime. No request
for preliminary hearing has been
made, but it is thought there will be
developments along this line in the
near future. In the meantime Sher-
iff e. C. Hanson is hard at work on
the case, and with the assistance Of
his deputies, is leaving nothing. un-
done to bring. the true facts to light
