THE STRIKE SITUATION.

How the railroad managers and the
chiefs of the brotherhoods OF train
men, now involved in a dispute that
may tie up traffic in the United States
next Monday, view the six proposals
made by President Wilson is contain
ed in the following epitome:
Observation-Disclosures are passive
regarding any plan to enlarge men,
bersbip and widen scope OF the inter-
state commerce commission. Rail-
roads wholeheartedly approve the
suggestion.
Observation-Disclosures unanimous
ly want establishment of an eight
hour day by law. Some think such
action would prevent the strike. Rail
roads have made their chief fight
against this proposal.
Third--Brotherhoods not greatly
concerned over appointment Of a com
mission to study effects Of an eight
hour day on operation costs. Rail-
roads desire such a commission II the
eight-hour day law Is inevitable.
Fourth-Brotherho opposed
In principle only--suggestio tnat
congress explicitly approve interstate
commerce commission consideration
OF increased freight rates; believe
Rogue River courier. (Grants Pass, Or.) 19??-1918, 1916-08-30

the roads are making enough now to
grant demands. Railroads favor any
movement to give them increased
freight rates, but are doubtful Of re-
suits OF such consideration.
Observation-Disclosures actively op-
pose as un-American forcing men to
work when they do not want to-"
which. they say. would be the result
Of creation Of q commission to in
vestigate labor disputes. with the
proviso that to strike would be un-
lawful during any investigation.
Railroads specifically asked for such
a commission.
Sixth-Brotherhoods do not oppose
giving the president power to oper-
ate trains in event Of military neces-
sity, provided only trains needed for
military purposes are thus operated.
Railroads favor any measure that will
keep trains running II q strike oc-
ours.

KAISER DEPOSES
GEN. FALKENHAYN

London. Aug, S0.-Emperor Will
liam dismissed General Falkenhayn,
chief OF the German general stan,
because Falkenhayn was opposed to
sending troops to the eastern front
to meet a Roumanian invasion. The
Hague correspondent of the Exchange
Telegraph reported today.
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg
urged that reinforcements be sent
to ustro-Hungary and won the sup
port OF the emperor with the result
that troop trains are now rushing
thousands OF German soldiers to the
defense Of Transylvania.
The change in the general stan
means the dismissal OF 80 German
generals on both fronts. the most
radical shake-up in any army since
the war began, the correspondent
stated.

While the republican state central
committee, which opposed Johnson.

early today that final revised returns
will show the progressive executives
majority to be greater even than ex-
pected. Figures from a.7S9 pre-

Johnson s2.522 and Booth 7s.S6s.

CAN NOT FORCE
MEN TO WORK

Washington, Aug. 80. - Senator
Cummins today, in senate speech,
denounced 'so-called compulsory ar
bitration" as an impossibility. There
is no power, he said, in which federal
or state governments can force men
to work when they do not want to
work. This, he said, would be the
case under any actual compulsory ar
bitratlon law. The fifth and thir-
teenth amendments to the constitu-
tion, he said, would prevent operation
OF such proposed laws.
II do not doubt, however," said
Cummins, that congress could create
tribunal and confer upon II jurls-
diction to seize upon controversy
between cooperative body OF rail-
way workers, such for instance as the
brotherhood engineers and the rail-
way companies, call the parties in dis
pute In before IT, take evidence and
render judgment, assuming, Of
course, that the dispute affects com
merce with foreign nations or among
states.
But even this procedure would
meet obstacles, since enforcement OF
an award might compel men to work
against their will, which Is involun-
tary servitude. Compulsory arbitra-

In the French school of violin mak- ing the art was not practiced generally until the eighteenth century. The French were rather more skillful as imitators of the Italians than as origi- nators, and the most famous of these early French makers was Nicolas Lu- pot, who copied Stradivarius almost exclusively. The German school never got very far in it's success. Jacob Stainer standing at the head of the makers of that country.
