from headache and tired, languid

ORGANIZER Of BOYS
WORK RESERVE HERE

Prof. E. G. Dudley of Syracuse, ma
tional organizer of the boys working
reserve for Arizona, California Nevada
and Utah, is in Phoenix to confer with
the local heads of the reserve and to
look into the situation here.
Professor Dudley was formerly of
Leland Stanford, Jr., university until
he took up the work of organizing the
boys food battalions in the west.
While here he will talk the situation
over with Lin B. Orme, head of the
boys working reserve for the state OF
Arizona, and will suggest plans for the
future carrying on of the work.
He has recently been engaged IN
studying the problems of the reserve in
the east and he finds that the boys
there are wanting to stay on the farms
in preference to going back to the city
where they have been engaged in fac
tory work.
ITO the boys working reserve said
Professor Dudley, belongs a great deal
of the credit for the big production OF
the past few years. We are confident
he added, that the boys will respond
again this year to the call that will
be sent out"

RAILROAD ENJOlNS M'ADOO

TOLEDO, Ohio, Nov. 25.-A tempor-
airy restraining order was issued TODAY
in United States district court here
against William G. McAdoo, as direc-
tor general of railroads, instructng the
receiver Of the Toledo, st. Louis and
Western Glover Leaf railroad not to
accept cars, sign contracts or do any
thing that would jeopardize or com-
promise the interests of the stockhold-
ers of the road. Hearing on the in
junction was set for December 16.
The case in question, said to be the
first wherein the power of the director
general Of railroads is attacked, is one
in which the stockholders protective
committee of the Toledo, st. Louis and
Western seeks to prevent Mr.. McAdoo
from compelling the road to accept
1850 freight cars which the committee
contends the road does not need, and
for which the committee declares the
road would have to pay an exorbitant
price.
The court also made the director
general a personal party defendant to
the suit.
During the court procedure today, at
torneys for the railroad administration
stated that the records showed that the
receiver for the road had requested the
cars.

with tenacity and skill, but always in
friendly spirit.
The contentious of the American gov
eminent generally and substantially
were that it had come into the war.
not alone on account of specific grew
ances against Germany, but on account
also of certain fundamental principles of
justice and right. These principles had
been announced with fullness several
times by the American government.
and had resulted in a great effort bv
the American people
fourteen Points Prevail
Looked at from Washington, these
principles, each time they had been
enunciated in part or in whole. had
been received favorably by the Euro
pean peoples and by the allied govern
ments. 1t was not meant to be under
stood that the American government
had thought the allied governments had
formally accepted them. but the atti-
tude of the ministers, unofficiaIlv. and
/ OF the press and of all eminent men
outside the immediate administrations
and of the peoples as a whole. had
caused the conviction to prevail ir
America that these principles had beer
approved ana accepted as ideals or
which the war was being prosecuted
The American people never had beer
conscious that they were fighting fol
| territorial or colonial interests of an,
/ allied governments, excepting insofa
! as these came within the framework O
! the American governments principles
/ Consequently it was necessary to brinl
| out that these points having been ac
cepted by the central powers. presented
a clean issue as to whether they wer,
to be officially accepted by the allieC
/ powers.
If the allied powers could not Sc,
their way clear to accept them. tn,
American government was in the DO
siton of having conducted the war 70
purposes which were not Identical will
those of the allies.
This presented a rather delicate issu
at the outset as it was realized that /
might require the submission of the en-
| tire subject to the American congress
The European ministers felt the fore
of the views presented, and this in tim
brought about an entire agreement o.
the American points as a basis of peac
| negotiations.
