PREDICT FAILURE
OF WORLD STRIKE

PARIS, July ZS-Advfces from
various European countries, especial
ly the allied nations, indicated today
that the international strike, plan
ned as a protest against interven-
ton in Russia and Hungary, had lost
it's element Of danger and in many
places would be a complete failure.
Apparently strike leaders either
had lost their control or had needed
government warnings.
Only in one country-Norway-
were there indications that the sit
uation might prove serious. A gen.
eral strike had been called for today,
following a strike Saturday which
forced Christiana to do without light,
water, street car service and news
papers The government issued an
order closing restaurants and order
ing three days prohibition Of the
sale Of alcohol
In France the strike had been call
ed off officially, with its leaders Is
suing manifestos urging every class
and profession to continue work to-
day. kilograms from Italy, Austria,
Germany and Great Britain indicated
the movement had been abandoned,
either wholly or partly, on account Of
the pressure Of public opinion.
Dispatches from Rome said the
strike promised to be a complete
failure in that city. Railways and
street car lines were being operated
under normal conditions. Reports
from central and southern Italy said
those sections had not been affected.
Dispatches from Germany an
nounced that as a result OF violent
protests from German agriculturists
and public, the world revolutionary
l. eli n- n "
If not entirely abandoned.
Vienna reports indicated the strike
failure there was due to public SEN
timent, energetic measures taken by
the government and, finally, to the
fact that the Hungarian trade unions
had openly declared Bolshevism to be
their worst enemy.

EARLY R. R. return
URGED BY WHEELER

After an eight-month study Of the
railroad situation. the National Trans
portation Conference today placed
before Congress q new and compre-
hensive plan for solving the national
railroad problem.
Testifying before the House Inter-
state and Foreign Commerce Commit
tee, the conference, created by the
United States Chamber Of Commerce
to formulate a railroad policy,
through Harry A Wheeler as its
spokesman, recommended:
Return OF the railroads to private
ownership and operation as soon as
the necessary remedial legislation
can be enacted.
Competitive Systems.
Consolidation of existing railroads
into strong competitive systems.
Requirement that all carriers en-
gagged in interstate commerce subject
themselves as corporations to Federal
Jurisdiction.
Exclusive Federal regulation Of the
capital expenditures and the security
issues OF all carriers engaged in in
terstate commerce.
Interstate Commerce Commission to
retain its present powers and to be
given additional powers over rates.
Enactment of a statutory rule Of
rate-making, designed to yield to the
roads a return of 6 per cent on the
aggregate fair value Of properties Of
the roads.
Creation Of two contingent funds
an individual railroad fund estab-
lished by each road to support its
own credit and a general railroad fund
maintained by contributions from all
prosperous roads, to be used to sup
port the credit of all railroads OF the
country. Any excess in the general
railroad contingent fund above $780,
600 900 is to be used for the general
development OF the transportation
system of the country.
Transportation Board.
Creation of a Federal Transpor-
tation Board.
The Transportation, Board, Wheel
er, former president of the Cham
Der of Commerce, declared. would pass
upon the public necessity, for CAPT
tai expenditures: regulate security
issues; administer and enforce meas
ures adopted for strengthening. and
stabilizing railroad credit; determine
the grouping or consolidation. of rail-
roads deemed to be in the public in
terest, and carry out plans authorized
by Congress for merging all roads
engaged in interstate commerce into
strong competing systems.
Adjustment Of wages and working
conditions OF railroad employees, he
said, would be in the hands Of boards
consisting OF equal numbers of en-
ployes' representatives and railroad
officers, with the transportation board
as referee.
Urges Reserve Fund.
Wheeler also advocated creation of
a railroad reserve fund. administered
by the transportation board. to facili-
tate prompt sterilization of railroad
credit. Under the plan, Congress
would lend $500, o0O.O 900 to this fund as
soon as the railroads are returned.
Scheduled to follow Wheeler on the
stand in support Of the plan are Paul
NJ Warburg, former vice chairman OF
the Federal Reserve Board; Prof.
Emory R Johnson, Of the University
Of Pennsylvania; w. W. Salmon,
president of the General Railway Sig
nal Company, Rochester, N. Y, and
Alexander w. Smith, Atlanta, Ga. All
are members of the National Trans
portation Conference.

WOULD PAY WAR RISK
BENEFITS IN THREE YEARS

Congress will soon be asked TO
amend the war risk act so that death
benefits of men who died in the serv-
ice will be paid over a period OF
three years, instead OF twenty, &C
COrding to an announcement by Col.
r. G. Cholmeley-Jones. director Of the
Bureau of War Risk Insurance.
This means beneflciaries OF men
who had the full $4,000 insurance
will receive something over $500 a
month for three years instead OF
