PRESIDENT TO
URGE SEIZURE
OF RAILROADS
Rejects Proposal of Execu-
tiveS For Control Under
Boards Plan
IS PREPARING MESSAGE
May Reach Congress Later in
Week; Senator New
lands Decision

Washington, ID. c., Dec. II. -
President Wilson last night rejected
the proposal of the railroad eXecu-
tives to retain control of the rail-
roads under the Interstate Com
merce Commissions unifieation
scheme. AS a consequence he will
go before Congress within few
days, perhaps before the end of the
week, with a message urging the
pooling of the nations transporta-
ton facilities under government
operation.
The railroads view, as drafted by
Fairfax Harrison. chairman of the
Railroads War Board, was submit
ted to President Wilson late yester-
day afternoon by Senator Newlands,
chairman of the Joint Congressional
Committee on Railroads. After his
conference at the White House Sena-
tor Newlands announced the Presl-
dents intention of laying the sltua-
ton before Congress. Here are the
outstanding features of MIR. Har-
rison's recommendations
Railroad Recommendations
/. The immediate appointment OF
a traffic officer to represent all i'm
portant government departments TO
secure efficient government CO.
operation.
2. Priority orders to enable the
railroads to secure prompt denver!
of equipment under contract.
g. The aid of the Treasury De-
partment in procuring, on their own
individual credit. the capital neces-
sary for the enlargement of equip
ment and facilities.
4. Immediate increases in rates TO
meet increased operating expenses
and strengthen credit.
5. Drafting of railroad men for
assignment to railroad work until
actually needed for military service.
MIR. Harrison made its clear that
the railroads are not seeking a bll-
lion dollars from the government or
any one else at the present time. He
also declared that the railroads do
not desire the repeal of anti-trus-
or anti-pooling laws at this time.
Senator Newlands declined to
make public the details of the attl-
tude assumed by the President dur
ing their interview. He was in con-
ference at the White House for
about a half hour. after which time
he went to his office at the Capitol
and issued n statement on the situa-'
ton.
Senator Newlands has been busy
since his arrival in Washington in
securing for presentation to the
Senate Committee on Interstate
Commerce all available information
regarding the railroad situation and
the recent recomm endations made by
the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion regarding the unification OF
railroad operation with a view to
meeting war conditions.
The Presidents advisers are dt-
vided in their views. Most of them
however have come out for govern
ment operation.
The railroads opposition to gov
ernment operation is we'll under
stood. But some surprise was eX-
pressed to-day at their objection to
suspension of provisions against
pooling traffic and profits.
Those within the government WhC
believe the railroads themselves can
handle the situation if given free
rein do not oppose legislation to
v-.ake a full pooling compulsory.

British Leader States
Allied Position on Form
of Russian Government
BY associated Press

Petrograd, Monday, Dec. 10.-In
reply TO question what forms of
government in Russia the allies
would consider as recognized and
supported by the people. the British
ambassador, Sir George Buchanan
SAID IN an interview to-day that
Great Britains position was that
such a government most naturally
would come from the constituent as
sembly, although it might come from
some other source.
The ambassador explained Great
Britain considered it necessary first
to discuss peace terms amQHg the
allies before taking them up with
the enemy and on that account could
not participate in the armistice ne
gotiations. He added that he had
taken no action toward recognition
Of the peoples commissaries.
Sir George declared Alat without
the British fleet and volunteer arm
les Russia to-day would be Ger
many'S Vassal, that autocracy would
be supreme in Europe and that there
would have been no revolution in
Russia, no liberty for the people
He asked if the British were not
entitled to be treated as friends in
stead of as the objects of scurrilous
attacks. He declared the Bolshe-
wiki premier, Nikolai Lenine, had
placed the British on n level lower
than the Turks, to whom he would
hand over Armenia. The position of
Englishmen at Russia at the pres
ent moment was unenviable. he add
ed. They were attacked or regard
ed with suspicion. There was no
foundation for suspicion, unless it
was crime to defend ones country
against the calumnies of German
agents.
The ambassador said he ventured
to address a word of warning to the
Russian democracy He knew the
Russian leaders were animated by
the sincere desire to create broth
erhood. Nevertheless speeches de-
livered against Great Britain and at
tempts to provoke a revolution in the
British Isles were merely stealing
the resolve of the British TO fight
the war 20 the end, rallying the peo-
pie around the government.

HEROIC ALPINI

AGAINST HUNS
Only After Division Was Cut

ment Made
BY associated Press

Italian Headquarters in Northern
Italy. Monday. Dec. 10 (by The Asso-
ciated Press) A visit to-day to the
headquarters of a major general COM
manding' a division of heroic Alpini
and Bersaglieri dislodged the story
OF the manner in which this division
held the heights back of the AsiaEo
plateau until 1t was cut to pieces and
the remnant was compelled to fall
back to its present new line The
general is now engaged in REFORM
ing his shattered forces, which were
seen in long lines along the road
Preparing to 60 back into the fight
a major Of tie generals staff. who
toward the close of the fight collect
ed the remaining men of the division
ard led them in the final charges
until the order for retirement came,
gave frst-hand description of the
struggle. He said there were three
bersaslleri regiments, some Alpini
battalions and one quota of batteries
OF field and middle calibre guns
These We're ranged back of Asiago
when the enemy's drive reached it's
maximum intensity last Wednesday,
For twenty-four hours one Bersag-
lieri regiment had held Monte Ton
darecar until its platoons had been
reduced from thirty men to six. 1t
was then that the battalions of AL
pini were sent to their relief
The Alpini fought their way up
the hill. gaming the summit against
heavy odds. only to find their COM
rades cut to pieces, Most of them
were lying dead from stabwounds
Now the Alpini battalions found
themselves in the center of a concen-
tration of enemy forces which gradu-
ally encircles them. Some of the
battalions maneuvered and were car
ried back and forth in the fury of
the lighting along the slopes. Others
remained on the summit with the
enemy surrounding them.
At o'clock on Wednesday morn
ing the colonel of these battalions
sent his last report to the general.
1t said laconically: THE enemy is on
all sides and 1 am about to charge"
That was the last which was ever
heard of him or of any of his men.
The enveloping enemy masses grew
denser, and the gallant Alipini band
which had gone to rescue the Ber-
saglieri was wiped out of existence.
The fighting continued along other
points of the line until the forces
We're decimated and it became clear
that the enemy greatly outnumbered
the Italians. The general himself
who was directing operations from
point just back of the line, mar
rowly escaped Il shrapnel shell which
burst near his automobile. 1t was
then that the major, who recounted
these events. gathered the remnant
of the division and fought out the
remainder of the day until the new
Italian lines of defense were formed
across the Franzella and Gadena
passes leading to the Brenta valley
and the plain. 1t is here, the lines
are now resting, with good prospects
of holding.
The correspondent visited a num-
Der of points on the present line and
talked with officers and men. All
were confident of being able to hold
when the new attack. which they eX-
pect in n few days, is made.

Rebels Disappointed
With German Offer

London, Monday, Dec. 10.-The
Petrograd correspondent of the
Times attributes to responsible
source the statement that during
the informal conversations between
the Russian and German representa-
tives at Brest-Litovsk regarding the
armistice on the eastern front the
Germans indicated that the follow
ing points were likely to be includ-
ed in any of their peace negotia-
tions:
Germany to have control of the
Russian wheat market for fifteen
years.
"All German goods to be admit
ted to Russia duty free
mo territory now occupied by the
Germans to be surrendered"
The correspondent says the Boil
sheviki were disappointed by the
reserved attitude of the German ne
gotiators and their lack of sympathy
with political idealism. other causes
contributed t. their depression but
it is stated they are determined to
conclude an armistice at any cost
il the latest appeal by the Russian
commissioners to the allies fails.
