CAUTIONED AGAINST ANY
arbitrary LABOR ACT
"ssss wv

Refer Disputes to Mr..
McAdoo.

Regional railroad directors have been
cautioned against any action in labor
disputes which might appear arbitrary,
said Director General McAdoo in a
statement issued last night. particular
ly because railway labor men still have
. suspicion that executives while work.
ing under government control are seek
ing to discredit federal management.
THE general policy as to all labor is
that there shall be no interruption of
work because of any controversies be-
tween employers and employees.
Most disputes, the Instructions said,
eral, who will deal with them through
the railroad administrations division of
labor, headed by W. S. Carter, or
through the railroad wage commission,
said Mr.. McAdoo. Mr.. Carter now is
considering formation of a permanent
mediation board to assist him in set
tlirg disputes after the wage commits
sion has completed its work and turned
in its general recommendations on
wage scales.
Mr.. McAdoo also has instructed the
regional directors to investigate and
report on these subjects: Curtailment
ot passenger service, discontinuance or
diminution of freight solicitation; elm
ination Of the existing duplication of
freight and passenger service, discon-
finuancc or slowing down Of fast
freight service: uuificatiou of pur-
chases. and Standardization of locomo-
tives, freight cars and other equipment.

CHARTER SHIPS FROM BRAZIL

PARIS. Wednesday, February 2s.-
The chamber of deputies has voted to
appropriate. 11000o,000 francs to be
used in charterinS German ships placed
at the disposal of France by Brazil.
The vote was 317 to Ill.
Foreign Minister Pichon, in support
ing the measure. said it was the first
transaction between the French and
Brazilian governments since Brazil
broke with Germany and was genuine
demonstration of Brazfls friendship
toward France. The Brazilian goverA
ment. he said, had had to choose be-
tween identical offers from the United
States and France. Very amicably
Brazil had leased the ships to France
and no less amicab bly, the United States
had accepted the decision.
The agreement consecrated the en-
tente between France and Brazil. Be-
sides from an economic view, it was
an additional bond between the two
countries, which NJ. Pichon regarded
as important. in view of the great
future of Brazil.
