TO RESTORE
BOSTON POL|CEMEN'S
JOBS IS IN PROGRESS

Boston, Sept. IA campaign to re
tain for the striking policemen the
places now officially declared to have
been lost because of desertion of duty,
was expected to be inauguratcd today.
The action was expected to depend
upon the result of a conference between
union labor leaders ana Police Commits
sioner Curtis. The commissioner at the
request of the union heads, consented
to the meeting ON an unofficial basis
but the labor men said they hoped to
obtain from it an exchange of views
which might be made the basis of ne
gotatons. The extent to which the
American Federation of Labor would
support the fight for reinstatement and
recognition as a union was in doubt to-
day. Immediate danger of a general
strike, threatened by the Central Labor
Union as its principal weapon in sup
port Of the patrolmen, appeared re
moved by the disposition Of the labor
LEADERS, to move slowly.
From New York, where President
Gompcrs has been directing the fedora
tons interests in the Boston situation,
came word from one of his assistants
that there would he no general strike ac-
ton. Officers of the central union here
said they knew Of no decision to war
rant such u statement; that the propos.
al for a general strike still was before
the union and that "a decision would
come with the completion of a poll of
the several craft organizations
Restoration of the city to orderly
conditions has been followed by removal
of many Of the barricades placed over
store fronts and other property as a
result Of the lootng in the early days
Of the strike. The number of state
guardsmcn on patrol was reduced today,
but all the troops still We're held in the
| city, concentrated at ccnters for avail
ability as emergency reserves.

the wires in the gulf coast storm from
Corpus Christi to Brownsville, where
yesterday a tropical hurricane sweep
ing in from the gulf, severed wire com
munication and did considerable other
property damage.
only meager reports were available
early today from the area visited by
the heart of the storm, apparently be-
tween Corpus Christi and Brownsville,
and the extent Of the damage was not
ascertainable in first reports, which,
however, made no mention Of fatalities.
The last word received from Browns
Vile was an Associated Press dispatch
via army wireless at Fort Sam Houston,
at San Antonio, late Sunday night. 1t
referred to conditions obtaining up to
p. m. Sunday, when the wind had at
tained velocity of 40 miles an hour,

brownsville, Texas, Sept. 15.-(Nia
Army Radio to the Associated Press.
Brownsville suffered no material
damage from the high winds that ac
companied the tropical hurricane that
touched the Texas coast early Sunday.
The hurricane apparently did not hit
the lower coast country.
High westerly winds, which attained
a velocity of from 40 to so miles, swept
the lower Rio Grande Valley, causing
some damage to light frame buildings
but the hurricane proper, weather men
here believe, curved out into the gulf
again when it reached the coast near
here.
The rainfall here was AIS inches
There have been no trains into Browns
Vile from the north since Sunday noon.
Efforts are being made to communi-
cate with Raymondville, in Cameron
county where it is feared the winds
were the heaviest.
Point Isabel, % miles from here on the
gulf, came through Sundays tropical
hurricane without serious damage, 1t
was learned today when wire com
munication was re.established between
Brownsville and that town.

Washington, Sept. -Denouncing
senators whose "insidious declarations

German peace treaty and the League of
Nations, Senator Jones, democrat, New
Mexico, speaking in the senate today,
said if the reservations recommended by
the foreign relations committee major

the league covenant would fail"
"If we eyer have "a separate treaty
with Germany" he declared, lit will be
and the United States will not partici-
pate in restoring and preserving peace
and bringing order out Of the worlds
chaos"
Senator Jones said in his opinion res
ervations as proposed by the commit

treaty.
Article 1O," he continued, "is dec.
laration to the world that war for con
quest shall end and that this declaration
will be supported by the combined pow
er of all the other members Of the
league"
IN my humble judgment" he added,
IF this covenant is entered into, wars
may possibly occur, but such occurrence
will be exceedingly improbable"
Calling attention to "unsavory con
ditons' in Mexico which he said were
daily growing more intolerable," Sen
