President's Warning
If Mediation Fails.
WASHINGTON Nov. ID.

WASHlNClON NOV. ID.
PRESIDENT WILSON, in his
efforts to prevent a railroad
strike has sent the following
letter to William L. Chambers,
head of the Federal Board Of
Mediation and Cancellation:
My dear Judge Chambers: May
! not express my very deep and
serious interest in your efforts to
bring the railroad executives and
the brotherhoods engaged in train
operation to an agreement that
there shall be no interruption in
their relations on either side
until ample opportunity shall
have been afforded the United
States Board of Mediation and
Cancellation to bring about if
possible an amicable agreement,
and that in the event of a failure
to bring about such an agree
.ment any controversy that may
have arisen will be submitted to
arbitration in accordance with
the provisions of the Newlands
law.
I take it for granted that your
efforts will succeed because it is
inconceivable to me that patriotic
men should now for q moment
contemplate the interruption of
the transportation which is SO alb
solutely necessary to the safety
of the nation and to its success
in arms, as we'll as to its whole
industrial life. But wanted,
nevertheless, to express my deep
| personal interest in the matter
and to wish you godspeed.
The last thing I should wish to
contemplate would be the pos
sibility of being obliged to take
any unusual measures to operate
the railways, and I have so much
confidence that the men you are
dealing with will appreciate the
patriotic motives underlying
your efforts that shall look for
ward with assurance to your sue
cess.
Cordially and sincerely yours.
| WOODROW WILSON.

CHICAGO. Nov l4.--Questions OF serv-
ing the Government and at the same
time supplying the needs OF the civilian
POPULATION with leather we're discussed
to-day at the convention here of the
National Association of Tanners. At
least two OF the delegates inclined to
the belief that high prices for shoes were
not justified by trade conditions. The
two who refused permission to use their
names intimated that prices OF $40. s1o.
SIS and $50 for n pair of shoes were
made for the reason that the seller
thought he could get them. People
have been trained to expect high prices.
particularly in leather goods they ex-
planned. There has been a legitimate
advance. but no such large increases in
price are justified
C.her delegates explained the ad-

demand and particularly the number OF
