the action is of the sort that will hold

LABOR CLAUSE Of
PEACE TREATY NOW
IS BEFORE SENATE
Treaty Now Stands Just as
Reported on July 10,
Stubborn Debate Is EX-
peCted

WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.-With the
long list of committee amendments
to the peace treaty finally disposed
of, the senate today lined up for the
next big fight of the treaty contro-
versy, which is to center around an
effort to strike out the provision for
an international labor organization.
The labor section was not touched
upon in the rejected committee
amendment program, but several sem
ators were ready today to put up
stubborn fight on the floor against it.
A motion to strike it out was made
in the committee in August by Sem
ator Fall, Republican. of New Mex
leo, but was later withdrawn with
the announcement that he was for q
vote on it in the senate.
Senator La Toilette, Republican,
Wisconsin, also recently announced
he would make a motion, and Sena-
tor Thomas, Democrat, of Colorado,
and others repeatedly have assailed
the section in debate.
Textually the treaty today was
just where it was when it was laid
before the senate on July 10, the last
of the amendments attached by the
foreign relations committee aft,r
weeks Of elaboration having been
thrown out by the senate yesterday.
In view of the present unsettled
labor conditions, elements are ex-
pected to be injected into the debate
on the treaty labor provisions which
may prolong it considerably. The
leaders do not look for action for a
week or more

Charles E. Hughes, William G. Nc
Adoo and George w. Wickersham, of
New York, were ready to appear in
United States court here today as at
torneys for the defense in a suit
brought by Charles E. Smith, to test

act.
Mr.. Smith, a director of the Kan
sas City Title and Trust company,
seeks to enjoin the company from
purchasing bonds or loans from the

the institutions is Illegal. William
Marshall Bullitt, Of Louisville, for
mer solicitor general OF the United
States, is chief counsel for the plain
tiff.
The Federal Land Bank Of Wichita,
Kans., created under the law, has
filed an inter-plea to the suit as did
the First Joint Stock Land Bank of
Chicago.
Mr.. Hughes represents the Wichita
bank and Messrs. McAdoo and Wick
ersham the Chicago institution. In
addition Mr.. Hughes has been ap-
pointed as assistant attorney general
of the United States to represent the

COAL FOR TRAINS
ON EVE Of STRIKE
Coal in Transit Ordered Held
by Director General Hines,
Exemptions for Certain
Consignees

WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.-The rail-
road administration today ordered
the confiscation of all coal in tran
sit where necessary to obtain a re-
serve supply to keep the roads in
operation.
In taking over such coal, eXemp-
lions will be made as far as possible
of coal destined to certain classes
Of congisnees based on the priority
list established by the fuel admins
tration.
Director General Hines issued the
following statement:
I'm order to interfere as little as
possible with the normal course Of
coal traffic, the railroad administra-
ton up to the present time has per-
mitted coal to go to the designated
consignees.
'rIt having become necessary, how
ever, to be prepared to insure against
all temporary contingencies, that
the transportation service be protect
ed, regional directors have now been
instructed to see that each railroad
shall accumulate a necessary reserve
Of coal when it is not already on
hand, purchasing such coal if pos
>sible, and otherwise holding coal in
transit.
I'm holding such coal exemptions
will be made as far as possible of
coal destined to certain classes of
consignees in the following order Of
priority, which is the basis of prior
ity adopted during the war by the
fuel administrations:
'"1-Steam railroads, inland and
coastWise vessels.
"2-Domestic, including hotels,
hospitals and asylums.
''3-Navy and army.
"4-Public utilities, including
plants and such portions of plants
as supply light, heat and water for
public use.
"5-Producers and manufacturers
of food; including refrigeration.
"6-National, state, county and mu-
nicipal government emergency re-
quirements.
7-Bunkers and other marine re-
quirements not specified above
"S-Producer of neWSprint paper
and plants necessary to the printing
and publication of daily newspapers
Goal held in transit is not to be
unloaded in storage, not used until
actually needed, so that if it's use
is later found unnecessary, it can
be forwarded to destination whenever
practicable.
Instructions issued provide that
there will be as little disturbance as
possible in the distribution of coal,
but at the same time protecting the
necessities of the railroads, which
have public duty to perform
Regional directors have been en-
gagged for several weeks in a survey
of the coal requirements of preferred
consumers in their territory, which
has given the railroad administra-
ton a complete idea of how much
coal will be needed to supply them.
All above. this amount will be taken
by the railroads, which, it is be-
lieved, will have sufficient fuel to
run them for a considerable period.
Railroads which find themselves
without sufficient fuel will be able
to make acquisitions through the re-
gional directors on roads which have
a surplus. Similarly public utilities
and other preferred consumers will
be able to obtain fuel imperativeIy
needed by applying to these direc-
tors.

STRIKE COMM TEE
ORDERS STEEL NEW
TO FILL CONTRACTS
Fitzpatrick Declares That
Coal Strike viii Materially
Strengthen His Union,
Attacks Operators

YOUNGSTOWN, O., Oct. 3O.-The
national strike committee at Pitts
burg has indorsed the stand taken
by the AmaIgamated Association of
Iron, Steel and Tin Workers that
contracts with steel plants made be-
fore the strike, shall be held invio-
late, and all Amalgamated men I'M
der such contract have been ordered
to return to work, it was announced
today by D. ]. Davis, vice president
Of the Amalgamated, who is here to
see that the orders are carried out.
PITTSBURG, Oct. 30-A state
mentf made by John Fitzpatrick,
chairman of the national steel strike
committee as to the effect of the
threatened bituminous coal strike
upon the steel strike and labor in
general, was issued at steel-strike
headquarters here today following
Mr.. Fitzpatrick's departure Yor Chi
cago last night. The statement fol-
lows:
eff the coal strike comes, it will
add strength to the steel strike and
to the position of labor throughout
the country. 1t will mean labor has
accepted the challenge of the big
group of employers who profiteered
during the war and who still are
profiteering.
"They have a grip on the throat
of the public and the government.
They have defied labor, the public
and the government. They have re-
fused to deal with labor in the steel
industry because they have hopes
there that they can defeat organized
labor. But in the coal industry they
are hopeless of defeating the older,
better tried organization. So they
get the government to try to force
theh coal miners to arbitrate.
"Arbitration is no good in the
steel industry, but it's fine for the
coal industry.
"1f the miners strike a tremendous
power is added to the labor forces
struggling to loosen the grip Of ruth
less profiteers on labor and the pub
lie"
According to latest reports from
union headquarters, the strikers of
the Pittsburg district were standing
firm and steel production was far
below normal. Company representa-
tives denied that such conditions pre-
vailed, and said the mills were OPP

FIUME PLAN OF
TITTONI FAILS TO
GET O. K. OF u. S.

PARIS, Oct. 30.-Notification has
been given the peace conference by
representative of Italy here that the
proposal made by Forign Minister
Tittoni for the settlement of the
Fiume problem had not been accepted
by the United States.
1t is declared by authoritative
Italian uarters, however, that al
though the reply of Secretary of
State Lansing was unfavorable as a
whole, considerable portion Of the
Tittoni proposal was accepted and
that the exchanges with the United
States on the subject will be con-
tinued
While the heads of the Ita1-
ian mission maintain their courteous,
diplomatic manner, lesser members
of the delegations are outspoken
saying the decision would Nrolong
indefinitely the perplexities and anx
ieties now facing the italian govern
ment.
1T is regrettable," said one of the
secretaries, that the abnegation with
which the Italian COVER tent has ex
posed itself to unpopularity in order
to find an acceptable solution of the
Adriatic problem or it's avowed pur
pose of maintaining, in spite of all.
solidarity with its allies, have not
succeeded in avoiding the deception
which now comes from Washington"
1t appears to be the general feel
ing in Italian circles that Italy has
reached the extreme limit Of possible
concessions and will stand on her
present position. 1t is said Italy's
position on her foreign policy will be
consolidated by the coming election
and that parliament has resolved to
sustain the government along the
lines Of Foreign Minister Tttonrs
proposed settlement.
The French newspapers generally
concur in the italian point of view,
expressing surprise at the American

ON SHARP CURVE

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 3O.-Six dead
and about 120 persons injured, some
seriously, wa sthe known casualty
list today as a result of the wreck
of the Southern Pacific railroad s
"San Joaquin Valley Flyer" late yes
terday. The tangled mass of wreck
age near Acton, a few miles from
here was expected TO reveal addi-
tional bodies. No official investiga-
ton of the wreck had been arrang-
ed early today, but railroad Of
ficials said it was caused by the
engineer attempting to make too
much speed on a ren-degree curve.
Frank Fielder, of Los Angeles, en-
gineer, the fireman and four pas
sengers comprise the known dead. A
survivor said he counted nine bodies
at the scene of the wreck. Five
bodies were brought here and a re-
lief train with injured was detour-
ed over another railway.
Of the heavy twelve-car train the
engine and seven coaches left the
tracks. One car was thrown at a
right angle acros sthe rails and the
others piled up in bitches to left and

have no other alternative than
to carry out the instructions of

made and if it must be settled
