ADVISES RAILROAD LABOR.
w. D. Hines Says Administration
Should Hear Grievances.

Labor leaders, especially those di-
rectly concerned in railroad work,
were yesterday urged by Walker ID.
Hines. director general of railways.
to take their grievances up with the
administration instead of looking for
relief from state legislatures. The
heads Of the four brotherhoods will
confer today with the director general
on technical questions regarding
working conditions.
Mr.. Hines denied that there was in
contemplation a big scheme of re-
trenchment. The director general said
wholesale retrenchment is impossible
under the law. Such a policy would
necessarily involve the impairment
of the roads and the law under which
they were taken over Stipulates that
they must be returned to their own
ers in as good condition as when the
federal authorities assumed control,

HOUSE NOT BEHIND,
SAYS THE SPEAKER
Not to Be Blamed for Delay in
Passing of Appropria-
ton Bills.

''I am plumb worn out with this talk
about Congress falling down on the ap-
preparations" said Speaker Champ
Clark today. People are too careless
in the use of that word Congress when
they may be referring 10 the House or
70 the Senate The fact is, the House is
further advanced with the appropriation
bills ~ this time than usually at this
period in the short session. But how
the Senate is fixed don't know, but
do know that unless some action caused
the House to slip a cog in its business
and miss a day, the appropriation bills
ought to be out of this end of the Capt.
tol by February %.

"The consequences of the peace con-
ference may entail action by the
House after the Senate has ratified
the treaty. Such was the case follow
ing the war with Spain. We don't
know what the future has in store,
but we would be better off if We could
pass the regular appropriation bills.
These continuing resolutions as
substitutes for the regular laws are
bad things and / am against them. If
we cannot get the appropriation bills
through I hope we can have an extra
session so as TO have them all clean
ed up by June 80.
AT any rate the House is not to be
blamed for what may not happen be-
tween now and March 4. because the

it is in no way derellct doing the

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-Sir: The
simple truth concerning the present
position of women in the Industrial order

Der of women IN various departments OF
work properly belonging to men. With

TO their places, and the women will like

quite changed.

Washington's Reward.

A touch Of the wistful, of almost
pathetic concern lest the most careful
ly chosen words of his Life should fall
on barren ground, appears toward the
close of WASHINGTON Farewell Ad-
dress. Having completed his incom-
parable indictment of any world am
bition which, by Interviewing our
destiny with any part of Europe"
would "entangle our peace and pros

Opening Germany to Commerce.

In the opening to trade OF the Ger
man territory along the Rhine occu-
pied by American and Allied troops
the Economic Council has tried to
solve several perplexing problems
which have bothered the military
commanders, and to alleviate distress
due to lack Of employment. The Ger.
mans will not be the sole benefciaries
Of this relaxation Of regulations. It's
effects will be felt on both sides of
the boundary line.
The Economic Council has probably
indicated in, this decision the manner
in which commercial relations be-
tween Germany and the world will be
restored. Instead of a general and
complete lifting Of the blockade that
has now been modified in favor Of the
Rhine provinces, we may expect spe-
clal rules affecting certain districts
to be issued from time to time as the
economic couneellors of the nations
and the military authorities agree on
them. Naturally such rules will pro-
vide for strict supervision Of per
mitted trade, SO that their purpose
shall not be thwarted in operation.
BY enforcing a policy Of gradual
reestablishment Of commercial rela.
lions the Powers represented in Paris
will be able to control the situation
more easily than would be the case
II all restrictions were to be removed
and during the period between now
and the resumption Of normal bust
ness intercourse obtain the benefits
for all which will flow from the rela
lions allowed.

never have seen a professional baseball
match, a telescope, or a moving picture
show.
