THoRITY TO TAKE OVER WIRE

STRIKE IS NOT MENTIONED
Opposition in Senate Is Predicted anc
Possibility Exists that Measure
VIII Not Go Through as Speed
lily as Desired.

Washington. July 3.-President VIII
son has asked congress to give
him power to take over the telegraph
and telephone lines Of the country. The
president, Secretary Burleson and Sec
rotary Daniels wrote II message to the
house interstate commerce committee
saying that the power asked by the
president was necessary to prevent the
suspension of telegraph service and to
guard military secrets.
The message indicated that Presi-
dent Wilson would try to prevent the
telegraphers' strike which had been
called by President Konenkamp of the
telegraphers' union, to take effect next
Monday.
Legislation to authorize government
control and operation of telegraph and
telephone systems during the war is
being prepared by leaders in the cap
itol with view to action If possible
before the congressional recess.
Secretaries Baker and Daniels and
Postmaster General Burleson. all of
whom have endorsed the pending bill
by Representative Aswell of Louisi-
ana, proposing this authority. were in
vited to appear today before the house
interstate commerce committee to fur
Their explain their views as to the ne
cessity for action at this time.
The presidents statement was in a
note to Chairman Sims approving a
letter from Postmaster General Burle-
son. There was no direct reference
In any Of the correspondence to the
call sent out by the Commercial Teleg-
raphers' union for strike of Western
Union operators on July 8. Mr.. Bur-
Lesson, however, wrote the president
that he deemed the legislation neces-
sary Eat this moment when paralysis
of large part of the system of cleo
trical communication is threatened
with possible consequences prejudical
to our military preparations and other
public activities that might prove dis
astrOus."
1t is said that on the senate side at
least there probably would be strong
opposition to the bill that might make
1t difficult for the administration to
get action before the recess.
