said that he would ask the brother
hoods to cease their demand for i'm

day or to postpone the strike.
New York. - Pres. Wilson today
stands as only buffer between people
and impact of greatest strike nation
ever has known.
Representatives of Big Four
railway brOtherhOOds have declared
that unless railways consent to their
eight-hour day demands by o'clock
tomorrow evening the progressive
strike designed to tie up cOuntTy's
roads will be set into motion.
Hope exists here that Pres. Wilson
will act today. Brotherhood chiefs
and managers committee remained
in New York, each side hopeful that
he would call some Of them to the
capital
The nation already had begun to
feel effects of order early today.
Drastic embargOes were being
placed on freight shipments. Food
spectators were reported active.
Effect of strike on City's food sup
ply was matter Of grave speculation.
In some quarters it was declared that
five days at most would see city in
near-famine conditions.
Washington.-The president feels
that he has not the power actually to
prevent a strike in view of failure
OF congress to pass strike prevention
legislation he advocated before last
session.
AS a result there appeared only
one course before him-a patriotic
appeal to both sides-tO get together.

watching strike threats SlZZle and
throw a scare into the general pub
lie and the business world - such
threats later bringing compromises
or postpOnements. While the atmOs-
phere has dizzy uncertainty, like that
of a horse race or a ball game among
these railroad men at their meeting
place in the Masonic Temple and at
their Great Northern hotel headqUar-
tiers - and while everybody admits
they are playing with fire and there
may come the hitch, the accident,
the unknown factor, inaugUTating
the greatest labor strike this cOun-
try has eyer generally these
rail men talk with an undercurrent
Of reinsurance as though the chanc-
es' are against a strike.
From the top of the railroad COM
panies the dope" runs that there
will be settlement or Intervention of
some kind, so that the strike orders
will not go into force. Pres. w. G.
Bierd Of the Chicago & Alton, chair
man at a meeting western and south
ern railroad executives at Chicago
CluD, made the comment last night
that he is confident a strike will be
averted. Pres. Markham of the ILL
nois Central says the same. No
strikebreakers are being hired, as
was the case last August. Not a rail-
road is known to have made any
such strike preparations as were on
last summer.
There isn't the scare in the air of
either side seen last summer. The
pushing, driving, fighting enthusiasm
necessary to carry to victory a strike
of big mass proportions is not in the
scenery of this play
What's going on? The vast gen.

know. Brotherhood members who

COMMANDERS READY
FOR 700 new SHIPS

No shortage OF masters and mates
Tor vessels faces the Government.
Even when the giant merchant feet
now under way is completed there
will be sufficient to fully officer the
vessels.
These facts were brought out forcib-
ly today at a conference OF represen-
tatives OF the various masters and
mates organizations and the Sea-
mems Union with the secretaries OF
Commerce and Labor. The main dif-
ficulty facing the Government in the
task Of operating the big fleet when
II Is completed was shown to be In
obtaining crews.
An idea of the size OF the task
was given by Secretary OF Commerce
Redheld. who declared that 700 ships

United States, exclusive entirely of
the program OF the shipping board.

200 SLACKERS DAILY
BETRAYED In LETTERS

More than two hundred letters a
day are pouring into the Department
Of Justice, exposing slackers who
failed to register for the national
Army. Many OF these letters come
from anonymous sources. and many
from the wives of slackers.
The letters are being sent immedi-
ateIy to the district attorneys in the
districts in which the men live. and
their names are Immediately placed
on the registry list for the draft.
For the present, the Department OF
Justice has decided to place the
sIackers in line for Immediate service
rather than arrest them and place
them in confinement.
1t Is considered that service in the
army would be more punishment for
the slackers than arrest and confne-

First honors for tomato growing in
Washington. claimed yesterday by
Mrs. r. =. Tate, 425 Fourth street

den OF r. d. Carroll. 221O Shannon
place southeast. They average a peck
Of tomatoes to the vine, according to
the owner.
Several years experience in tomato
raising has convinced Mr.. Carroll
that the best kind OF tomatoes to
grow is the buckeye" variety. This
year he set out twenty-four plants.
One OF them died.
Carroll has been picking fruit
from the vines for three weeks. When
the plants are growing he cuts OF all
the stems except two.
