ers OF war is hardly equal to what the
Russians and Serbs held in Austria
Hungary will themselves consume dur
Ing the year.
It seems, however, that the labor of
prisoners OF war was more productive
in other fields OF endeavor, especially
Is this true where the Russians and
Serbs remained altogether under the
control Of the military. In building
roads and railroads no opportunity for
Sinking was given. Each gang had
to do certain amount OF work; re-.
suits were Immediately visible and
therefore susceptible to prompt cor
rection, which was not the case In
farming. The engineer troops under
whose surveillance railroad work was
done could not be easily fooled by
the prisoners of war, while the farm:
er had he wanted to supervise his in
voluntary farmland closely, could
have done the work himself. Since
most OF the, old reservists guarding
the prisoners of war were city people
no Improvement from that direction
could be expected.

At Least That Is the Impress

Austro- Hungary.

IL. - - ~ . = e.
VIENNA, Jan. 12.-( Correspondence
Of The Associated Press -Austrian
and Hungarian landowners and FARM
ers are not particularly impressed with
the value Of Russian and Serbian
prisoners OF war as farm laborers.
Accounts from all sides generally sup
port the old saw, you can lead

On, the whole, the prisoner Of war
as a farm hand fseems to have been
a. failure. This is true for other rcas
sons than that the prisoners nave a
natural aversion to work for thelr
enemies: One, of. the great hand1caps
has been that tho Russian and SerD
farmers who were selected to work on
the Austrian and Hungarian farms
were for the greater part unframed
in the rather intensive farming meth
DDS employed III the dual monarchy.
Though the men were shown how TO
go about their work most OF them
failed to understand the reason why
it had to be done certain way. Oth-
ers who did understand preferred to
be careless, when not under the eyes
Of the overseor and guards. But few
of the prisoners Of war took any IN
terest in the work. Patriotic feelings
appear to have been an active deter
rent for most of them.
That Austria: Hungary had splen-

favorable weather conditions with

Bosses in the Campaign.

Roger Sullivan sulki No republican
manager is likely to be misled by that
report. 1t does not jibe with Mr.. Sui
livan's nature. Like the great man of
the same name-the well beloved and
much admired John L.-who dominated
the prize ring a few years back, the Chi
cago politician is a born scrapper, and
needs only to see an opponent to feel
the desire to 60 to him and for him. Mr..
Sullivan may not "hang out" at demo
cratic headquarters. 1t is not necessary
that he should. Chicago is his town, and
he has headquarters of his own. But he
will find work to do, and do it, let every
republican believe.
A story Of like character is in circu-
latiOn about Charles F. Murphy. The
public is asked to believe that in ac-
cepting Judge Seabury, whom he does
not like, as the democratic candidate for
governor, Mr.. Murphy practically served
notice on the national administration
that the whole responsibility in New
York would rest upon it; that Tam
many would be conventionally regular,
but not enthusiastic.
1t may serve campaign purpose to
have these stories put out. It may be q
form Of appeal to independent voters.
4see! The President is not leaning on
the bosses. Rather is he snubbing them.
He is defying them. Let Sullivan and

the bonds authorized by law have been
sold. Enough remains Of this issue to be
used now to carry out the provisions of
the shipping bill, which is soon to be-
come a law if the present program is
followed
The financial situation has been Sc
riously complicated by the necessity of
sending an army to the Mexican border
and large force into Mexico itself.
Heavy expenditures have been involved,
yet without the existence of an actual
state of war, such as would almost au-
tomatically call for bond issue. The
Treasury is seriously strained and the
prospective shortage is now frankly
avowed in terms that leave nothing to
be done short Of selling securities, un-
less Congress can agree upon some ad-
ditionai means of taxation. Inasmuch
as the proposed revenue bill adds Sc
riously to the tax burden of the people,
and in some respects brings new OBJ
jects under direct assessment, it is
doubtful whether the necessary $780,
900 900 could be produced by taxation
without involving the party responsible
for the administration in the gravest po-
litical difficulties.

Murphy and all the others do their worst,
or do nothing. He is looking to other
sources for success. He wants the sup
port of the plain people, Embossed and
unbossable."
The bosses on both sides are in this
campaign, every man boss of them. They
could not keep out if they would, and
would not if they could. 1t is alluring
in many ways to the professional poll
ticians.
In the case of Mr.. Sullivan there is
his future. He wants to be elected SEN
ator. Now, if he were to sulk this year
help throw down Mr.. Wilson-what
chance would he have to succeed Mr..
Lewis when the time comesi His sulk
this year would be an asset against him.
both in the primary for the nomination,
and, later, if he managed to win the
nomination.
In the case Of Mr.. Murphy there is
the mayoralty race next year, which he
hopes to win with a candidate of his
own. But if Tammany should die
down" this year on Wilson and Seabury,
what chance would he have at the mayor:
altys
The bosses may not be as powerful
this year as in some other years, but
they will be in the fight all right. He
reckons i'll and shortsightedly who counts
them out.

Seeking the Final Authority.

By summoning into conference the
presidents of the large railway systems
of the country, the President moves to-
ward the center of the railroad situa-
ton and increases the chances of an ad
justment. He is determined that there
ground of lack of authority on the
part of those in negotiation. He has had
brought here the general committee of
the brotherhoods, over 900 in number,
and now brings the executive heads of
the transportation systems, SO that the
conferences may be conducted with a
minimum Of delay and difficulty. From
now on there should be, and doubtless
will be, steadfast insistence upon the
fact that the issues between the railroads
and the operatives are not beyond the
range of arbitration, and that whoever
prevents an adjustment by such method
will be held responsible by the country
for the catastrophe of strike.
The actual differences between the
companies and the men are not insuper-
able. The brotherhoods demand an eight
hour day, with "time and a half" for
overtime. That is, they insist that no
man shall be worked for more than eight
hours day save with payment at the
rate of one and one-half. If man gets
60 cents an hour, under this claim he
would be paid 90 cents an hour for every
hour beyond eight worked in one day.
The railroads declare that under the
average conditions of operation it is i'm
possible to adhere STRICTLY to the eight
hour schedule, and that it is impossible
for them to raise the scale for overtime
in view of the intimation given by the
interstate commerce commission that ad-
vances in the pay scale on this score will
not be permitted as an argument for an
increase in the freight or passenger
rates.
Much more difficult and complicated
questions have heen settled by labor ar
bitrations in the past, and there would
seem to be no valid reason why this is
sue should not be referred, uncondition-
ally, to a board representing the three
parties interested, the railroads, the
brotherhoods and the public. To 60 to
a strike on such a point would be mon
strous, crime against the country.
