PRESIDENT DECIDES TO 40.
DRESS CONGRESS AS PEACE
HOPE FADES.
STRIKE SET FOR SEPT..4
EMPLOYEES ON 225 RAILROADS
TO WALK OUT At 200 A. N.
ON LABOR DAY.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington. Aug 29.-Unless the
railroads or the unions promise con-
cessions President Wilson will go be.
fore Congress and propose legislation
designed to avert the impending gen.
eral strike, scheduled to go into ef-
feet next Monday.
Mr.. Wilson said last night that he
saw little hope of effecting settle
ment by negotiation. and he had de
cided to ask the aid of Congress. He
was engaged last night in writing the
address he intends to deliver to the
joint session Of the Senate and House
setting forth his fruitlesa efforts to
settle the controversy. and proposing
legislation not only to avert the i'm
pending strike II possible. but to min.
lmixe such menace to the public wei
fare in the future.
The President also contemplates
issuing an address to the American
people containing an appeal to the
railroads and the unions to prevent an
interruption of transportation which
would cause untold suffering through
out the country.
According to instructions issued BY
the unions the operation of ell
trains on 225 railroads will be sus-
pended next Monday at a. M, Wash.
ington time.
The President called the brother
hood heads to the White House and
appealed to them to suspend the in
structions or at least to postpone the
date OF the walkout. The brotherhood
quest.
President Wilson also presented to
the union leaders a proposal made to
him by the railroad executives. This
was suggestion of arbitration Of all
the issues in slightly different form
from that embodied in the formal an.
swer of the executives rejecting the
Presidents compromise plan. The
brotherhood presidents said they
could not accept the proposition in.
asmuch as the 600 district chairmen
authorized to pass on such questions
had gone home.
The President thereupon telephoned
the executives that the unions had
refused to make any concessions.
The President, who drove to the
capitol to confer with the Democratic
leaders, proposed the following legis
lation:
Establishment Of the eight-hour day
for all employees Of interstate rail
roads.
Addition Of two members to the In
terstate Commerce Commission and
division Of the body into groups with
the object Of expediting It's work, par.
ticularly the determination of rate
advances.
Creation OF a permanent commits
sion to which 1t would be obligatory
for the carriers and their employees
to submit all disputes
Provision enjoining strikes and
lockouts pending the decision Of the
commission and for sixty days there
after.
The advisability of empowering the
Interstate Commerce Commission Il
consider wages as one of the elements
in the fixing Of railroad rates also
was discussed.
Members of Congress, 1t is stated
say that legislation cannot now be
passed in time to avert tie.up.

nation LINED UP FOR BIG
BALLOT BATTLE TUESDAY
Both Republicans and Democrats Claim Victory, Though
All Cencede That Outcome Will Depend Upon the Way
the Pendulum Swings in New York, Illinois, Ohio and
Indiana The Balance Of Power States

New York. Nov. 6.--Tomorrow
the American voter says who will be
the next president Of the United
States, dictates who viii com pose the
senate and chooses members OF the
house OF representatives.
Viewing the situation today, "a
hours In advance OF the battle OF the
ballots. and with claims from both
democrats and republicans cocksure
OF victory. II appeared that New York.
Illinois, Ohio, and Indiana would
come the nearest to holding the bal
ance OF power. Both sides claim this
big four" OF states. Their total In
the ELECTORAL college is 113--nearly
t3 per cent OF the 2s6 votes necessary
to q choice.
The strictest neutral---or even the
strongest republican. for that matter
comedies the democrats the solid
SOUTH block OF 1856 votes. This
i36 comprises the electoral votes OF
Virginia. North Carolina, South
Carolina, Georgia, Florida. Alabama.
Mississippi. Louisiana. Texas. Arkan-
sas. Tenhessee and Oklahoma.
II does not include Kentucky and
Missouri. heretofore classified as CON-
ponent parts OF the solid south. and
this year claimed by democrats still
to be In that section. but adjudged
by republicans to be debatable
ground.
In the presidential race. therefore,
Republican Candidate Hughes starts
of with his opponent given a handi-
cap OF 1856 votes. But he also has
been granted by the democrats a han
dicap from scratch OF 10 votes---the
electoral total OF six states. Maine.
New Hampshire. Vermont, Rhode Is
land. Pennsylvania and Iowa.
That leaves Wilson with net han
dicap In the vote race Of SO spares in
the ELECTORAL college.
But unless there Is \ oataclysm In
the voting. the neutrals admit that
the ilS votes OF the big four" states
will be real turning points In the
election. The democrats claimed all
four today; so did the republicans.
In Illinois lies the real enigma
close to 100000 new women voters.

we're shy In making any predictions
on the sucker state today. ~
In New York--the state with the
big 40 votes In the electoral college
the problem the republicans faced
was to keep the New York city nor
NAL democratic majority down and
boost up the normal republican up
state majority to as high point as
possible. Publicly, last minute claims
were: SIZES ytt
Republicans - Hughes will win
New York by from 100000 to $780,
600. Democrats--Wilson will win
by at least 100000.
Indiana and Ohio have been strenu-
ous backgrounds during the cam
paign. The air has been filled with
oratory. red fire, debate and charges
and counter-charges. Republicans
particularly want a clean sweep in
Indiana. because there are two SEN
ators up for election In that state.
