IRON ORE PRICE
 RAISED SLIGHTLY
Increase Granted After All
 Day Conference With War Industries Board.

Washington, Sept. 20-Tron ore pro- ducers were granted a slight increase in prices for the quarter beginning Oct. 1 by the Price Fixing Commit tee of the War Industries Board last night after an all day conference with representatives of the American Iron and Steel Institute. The extent of the increase was not announced. De- cision as to new basic prices on pig iron was postponed until today.
 Although those attending the con- ference were pledged to secrecy as to the proceedings by Chairman Brook ings, of the committee, it was learned that the iron ore industry producers quietly hinted they would accept an increase of $5 a ton. The steel in dustry, it is understood, made no re- quest for a, new price except the high cost producers, was pointed out that any increases granted for iron ore and pig iron would necessarily entail increases to them.
 After the cnference Chairman Brokings announced that although an agreement had been reached there would be no announcement, out of courtesy to the President, who has to approve the action of the committee He stated, however, the increase in iron ore was so slight as not to be of

VIDE HAS TURNED,
 SAYS SCHURMAN
Brings Message From Foch and Clemenceau After Tour
 of Battle Lines.

Jacob Gould schurman, President lof Cornell University, just arrived at an Atlantic port from England and France, said yesterday that he be- tlieved the morale of the allied armies and people was higher than 1t had lever been. while he declared that of the Germans was lower. He spoke of the great confidence given to the Allies by the American victory at Chateau Thierry and their fighting on the Vesle, and continued:

 "Both in France and England lmet a good many people, including a humber of the political, military and kihtellectual leaders. and from con- Eversation with them as well as dili- Event reading of the newspapers, en- Fdeavored to make a study of public Iopinion.

BERLIN APPROVED
 SAYS BURIAN
Peace Proposal Had Been Considered for Weeks,
 Austrian Minister Says.

Amsterdam, Sept. 20-Baron Bur ian, the Austro- Hungarian Foreign Minister, in announcing to the Ger man Deputies that the Austrian and Hungarian delegations would assem- ble in the first fortnight of October, is quoted in a dispatch from Vienna as saying that his note to the belli- gerents had been considered for weeks and was in nowise influenced by re- cent events on the battlefront
 The Foreign Minister, said he had taken the step alone, "of course, not without previously acquainting our al- lies of 1t and being certain of their approval in principle" because on the hand the proposal had to avoid the appearance of peuce offer by the Central Powers, and on the other be- cause the proposal was to be ad- dressed to all the belligerents
 Baron Burian said that success would. perhaps, not immediately en- sue, but the loyal intentions which were behind the proposals would un. doubtedly strengthen the conviction that no possible success obtainable from a continuation of the war would be able to weigh against then eavy sacrifices which the struggle would continue to impose on the nations.

 MORE THAN HALF THE COAL NEEDED

In spite of the indictment weather, an enthusiastic crowd was present at the noon-day luncheon of the Czecho- Slovak workers. Practically all the calls had been made on the previously compiled cards. The total receipts since yesterday noon were s7,509.6S, making a grand ototal of $26,969.7S.
 The rules for districts will be off today, and the workers are instructed to 'get the bacon" no matter where.
 George E. Crawford, general of the first division, made a short address It had been reported that residents of the city, while claiming to be Ameri- can citizens, are Russian born and sympathizers of the Bolshevik. On the ground that the Czecho-Slovaks are enemies of the Bolshevik, they re- fused to contribute to the fund. MT. Crawford said such people should be enlightened on the situation on the eastern front. "No sympathizer of the Allied cause" he said, Twill refuse to give when they realize that for every man recruited by the Czecho-Slovaks the Germans will be obliged to take man from the western front, which will be material aid to the Allied armies by reducing the German op- position.
