Fear That Small Daily and Weekly
Newspapers May Hare to Sus-
pend Their Publication.

Washington, Aug. 31.-Because of
the increasing shortage of news print
paper, publishers of the smaller
daily and weekly newspapers through
out the country fear they will have to
suspend publication, says a letter ad-
dressed to each member of the News
Print Manufacturers association by
the federal trade commission and
made public today.
The letter says the suspension of
these papers would be "a national
calamity" The commission suggests
that the association take steps to in
sure newspaper publishers not pro-
tected by contracts that they will con-
tinue to receive a supply; that steps
be taken to restrain members or mid
dlemen from charging unreasonable
and prohibitive prices; that Sunday
operation of paper mills and the trans
ferring of machines operating on other
grades of paper to the manufacture Of
news print paper be considered; AID
that officials of labor unions be ap-
preached regarding Sunday work.

VATICAN'S DESIRE
IS WORLD PEACE
Cardinal Discusses Possibility of
French Relations With Holy See
When War Is Over.

Paris, Aug. 81, (6:10 a. m.)-The
Vatican is considering the action OF
Germany in compelling inhabitants OF
the north of France to work in the
fields, according to statement by
Cardinal Gasparri, the papal secre-
tary of state, says the Rome cores
pendent of the Journal. The cardi-
nal declined, however, to discuss the
status of this subject.
Questioned as to the possibility or
the. resumption of diplomatic relations
between France and the Holy See, the
cardinal said the Vatican would be de-
lighted by such an event, but that all
would depend upon whether the
French government desired it.
With the reestablishing OF peace,
all the belligerents would have i'm
perative need for rest which would
for a number of years at least put an
end to internal wars, said the cardi-
nal. Religious peace, he declared,
will never be complete in France
without resumption Of diplomatic re-
lations with the Holy See.
The cardinal referred to the desire
Of the pope for peace which shall he
tust as durable without the oppression
Of any people and with regard to their
aspirations. Otherwise there would
be no peace, or it would not be last
ing" continued the cardinal.

In the Macedonian war theatre,

SHOP MEN WILL
NOT FORCE ISSUE
Impending WaIkout of $4,000 Mechan-

OF.

Chicago, Aug. 31.-A strike of $4,000
shop men employed on 10 railroads Of
the middle west will be averted, said
w J. Tollerton, chief Of the mechan-
ical department of the Chicago, Rock
Island & Pacific railroad today, fol-
lowing his conference with representa-
tives of the Rock Island shop men, who
demanded an eight-hour day and an
increase of five cents an hour in
wages.
The negotiations have not reached
an acute stage, he said, as indicated by
the fact that the shop men are nego-
tiating with the individual railroads
and not with all of them in body as
had been contemplated.
I'VE have made a compromise offer
to our shop men, which practically
amounts to granting half of their de-
mands and we believe that after sew
eraI more weeks of negotiations the
controversy will be settled" Tollerton
said. "Our conference adjourned with
the shop men promising to give the
compromise offer their sincere consid-

Chicago, Aug. 31.-Practically every

said today.
.II1inois has become a great manu-

said. Because of cheap power, the vast
distribution system which the railroads
have built up and the good facilities
for bringing in raw materials cheaply.
For every day that factories of Hi
nois are idle it means the stopping OF
manufacture of products valued at
$40 600, OOO." President Hastings said,

the recent dispatch of additional
troops which had not done border

be gotten under way by Saturday and
others are expected to follow Sunday
but a big proportion will not be able to

MILITARY WILL
OPERATE TRAINS
III Strike Comes Uncle Sam Will See
That Troops Do Not Suffer
For Supplies.

Ell Paso, Texas, Aug. 31.-Some
eighty experienced railway men in the
Pennsylvania national guard division
encamped here have expressed their
willingness to operate military trains
if the strike is called.
1t is understood that In the event
of a strike the military authorities in
tend to run supply trains from the
Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific coast so
that the camps along the frontier will
not suffer.
Tone of the comment IN Mexican
newspapers received here shows that
the threatened strike is looked upon in
Mexico as something of a revolution
with the workmen arrayed against
CAPITALISTS as the poems in Mexico
were arrayed against the land own
ers in the Madero and Carranza up
