more than $50 men have already been

the officials of the service. When the

20 men had sfgnified their want Of work
Practically all Of these men have been

Officials of the employment service are
working like beavers to get men jobs,
and while they are confident OF getting
job for every man. the increase in
applicants has set tham behind some
what, or makes them seem behind.
In answer to the call for employers
who have apprentice positions open,
issued yesterday, one employer has al
ready told the employment service that
he has several positions open where
young men may learn trades.
A large number of the men yet with
out jobs and a considerable proportion
of the men who are registering every
day now are young men who want to
learn some trade. They are unwilling
to take up unskilled labor jobs.

committee debated the treaty yester-
day. They followed closely the lines
set out on the majority and minority

said ratification was essential because

blackmail, and that if the United States
bought Columbia's friendship in this
case it might have to buy some other

NATIONAL CRISIS
GIVEN AS REASON
Basic Eight-hour Law to GO In-I
to Effect, Secretary Lane
Declares; Details Are BEING
Worked on,
tor MORNING louRHAL SPECIAL LEASED wrsr,

New York, March t9.-Thc confer
ence committee of railroad managers
early this morning authorized Presi-
dent Wilson's mediatOrs to make
whatever arrangements were neces-
sary with the railroad brothcrhoods
to call off the threatened strike.
The formal letter in which this au-
thori2ation was made was signed by
Elisha Lee. chairman of the man
ayers committee, and was as follows:
Tn the national crisis precipitated
by events of which we heard this aft
ernoon the national conference COM
mitteo of railroads join with you in
the conviction that neither at home
nor abroad should there be fear or
hope that the efficient operation of
the railroads of the country will be
hampered or impaired
"Fherefore you are authorized to
assure the nation there will be no
strike and as a basis for such assur-
ance we hereby authorize the commit
tee of the council of national defense
to grant to the employees who are
about to strike whatever adjustment
your committee deems necessary to
guarantee the uninterrupted and eff
ficient operations Of the railroads as
an Indispensable arm of national de-
fense"
The decision reached by the man
ayers at their midnight conference
means that the brotherhoods have
won a most important victory al
though it does not bring them all
their original demands. BY the
agreement, it is assumed they will be
awarded pro rata time for overtime
on the basic eight-hour day which
they have been assured.
Their original demands called for
time and a half for overtime on the
same basic day
The men will get their present pay
for ten hours for eight hours work
under the agreement. These conces-
sions on the part of the managers are
virtually what the employees contend
ed they would gain under the Adam
son law if it were declared constitu-
tional.
Immediately after Secretary Lane
had made his announcement the
brotherhood members sent kilograms
to all the general chairmen informing
them that the strike had been declar-
ed off
