FIGHT OVER STRIKE
LEGISLATION IS ON
UNIONS AND ADMINISTRATION
CLASH OVER COMPULSORY
ARBITRATION BILL.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 5.-Organ-
lied labor and the Wilson administra-
tion. allies throughout the last cam
paign, collided head-on this week
when the senate interstate commerce
committee conducted hearings on the
presidents railroad legislation pro-
gram.
Labor leaders registered the mos
emphatic protest against the pro-
posed legislation, particularly agains,
the so-called compulsory arbitration
bill, recommended by the president
in his annual message to safeguard
the public against strikes. They
openly condemned the tentative draft
of the bill, declaring it would force
voluntary servitude and give employ
ers an enormous advantage in COM
batting strikes.
Details Of Measure.
The bill. as tentatively drafted,
would compel the reference OF all In
dustrial disputes to the federal board
of mediation and conciliation. Ordin-
ary methods Of mediation, concilia-
tion or arbitration failing, the board
would be compelled to lay the differ
ences before the president. who
would appoint q committee Of three
to investigate the dispute. Pending
three months Of investigation and one
month thereafter. strikes or lockouts
would be unlawful.
Labor leaders took the position that
such a law would enable employers
to prepare for q strike by the time
employees were legally permitted to
QUIT their Jobs, and they would fnd
operators ready to meet them with
strike-breakers. The effectiveness Of
the strike practically would bA de-
stroyed by the measure, they de-
|clared.
Wilson Urges It's Passage.
President Wilson served notice on
congress Saturday that he wants the
measure pushed as rapidly as possible
to insure its passage. Senator New
lands, chairman Of the interstate COM
merce committee, let It be known
that he may attempt to lay the bill
before the senate before the end Of
the week. Once there It IL slated for
rough sledding.
!, Meanwhile the chiefs of the rail-
road brotherhoods have dispatched
sealed messages to the local chair
men, putting the 8-hour day question
again squarely before the 100000
members.

CHANCES FOR PEACE
DEPEND UPON ALLIES
HOPES FOR SUCCESS BASED ON
THEIR REPLY TO PRESI-
DENTS OvERTURES.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-On the
reply Of the entente to President VIII
SON rests the entire hope Of success
from peace movements now afoot.
This ID practically the unanimous
opinion Of administration officials
and neutral diplomats in Washing
ton.
Unless in that document there II
clearly Indicated some inc1ination
actually to endeavor TO bring about
peace. or to leave open the door -
discussion Of terms. the collapse alike
of the Teutonic and neutral efforts
toward peace Is gloomily but posi-
lively forecast.
SPANS refusal to endorse the
presidents efforts are discounted here
o Of little importance one way or the
other. This was admitted today at
the embassies Of countries In both
warning leagues. The attitude Of the
United States, It was pointed out, u
the only one Of Importance. % It 10
the only powerful neutral in the
world. Naturally. It was said, other
nations following its lead would LEND
more weight to any position taken By
the American government, but this
opposition would have NO vital effect.
Representative In Warrington OF
Germany's allies frankly expect moth
ing in the looked-for reply to the
Wilson note from the entente. They
are pessimistically sure that the an
swer to their own peace discussion or
fer indicates the attitude to be main
tanned by Great Britain and its allies.
Not until Germany has Indicated
. willingness to make reparation for
the violation Of Belgium and other
small countries and has given guar
antees that viii prevent future wars
will the allied powers entertain pro-
posais Of peace from the Teutonic
ALLIES.
( This was the emphatic declaration
contained IN the joint ohicial note OF
the entente nations in reply to Chan
cellor hmann-Hollweg's recent
peace message. which was made pub
lie last Sunday by Premier BRAND
of France. in identical notes to neu-
trail representatives

rather than a legitimate peace prof.
fer. The proposal Of Germany was
called "insincere" and an attempt to
bring about a "German-made" peace.
Germany was referred to AZ the
empire which proclaimed that
treaties were scraps of paper"
