Supreme Court Justice Newburger for
renomlnation to make way for Irwin

Three other judiciary candidates

Court Justice Richard II. Smith. o.
Manhattan, like Justice Newbur.er. a
Democrat. and, like him, nominated by
the Republicans after being turned
down for denomination by Tammany
The other two are Brooklyn men and
Republican nominees. One was Repre-
sentative Reuben l.. Haskell, whose
candidacy for County Judge is opposed
by the Anti-Saloon League in a bitter
and persistent campaign because of his
stand on prohibition. The other is
Arnon l.. SQuicrs, running for Supreme
Court Justice in the Second Judicial
District. which comprises all of Long
island and Staten Island.

End of Emergency
Ship pLegislation Is
Sought in House
Bill Is Offered to Reduce
Presidents Power and
Put Board Back Upon
Its Pre-War Footing
Nsw y'orN T,-ba5,.
oshin0,on Rureou

"ASHlNGTON. Oct. II. Further
legislation to shear the President and
some OF the executive departments of
the government of part Of the extraor
c.nary powers given them during the
war is proposed in a bill by Repre-
sentative Greene. Of Massachusetts.
inst reported to the House from The
Merchant Marine and Fisheries Com.
mlitee. The bill is sweeping in char
acter and provides for the repeal Of
all emergency shipping legislation. for
cancellation Of the extraordinary pow
ers conferred upon the President for
requisitioning ships, vharvcs and other
property, Iepca,s control of ocean
freights and charters, and prevents
further extension of the Shipping
Poard's housing programme. Speaking
of the bill, Mr. Greene said:
he bill arranges for all property
acquired under these acts to be trays-
ferred to the Shipping Board. While
the power conferred upon the President
20 operate under the emergency ship
ping legislation has been exercised By
the Shipping Board under order of tn
Pres ident, dual control is evident
which this act prevents, thus conccn
trating all power in the board.
The act then arranges for the sale
Of ships, and provides fer extended
payments un to ten years upon them
It also authorizes the board to accep,
mortgages and prescribe The terms Of
the mortgages 1t instructs the board
TO discontinue shipbuilding so far as
is consistent with good judgment, and
instructS the board to make no further
investments in new ships nor plants,
and further insists that they shall en-
deavor to withdraw as quickly as pos
sblc from all investments made by
them and turn the money into the
Treasury.
"Provision is made for the operation
of ships remaining in possession Of
the board but, OF course, under the
original shipping act operation Of
regular lines will probably only be en-
gagged in where the natural business
is not adequately served by American
lines. Requisitioned property in which
the government has no financial IN
terest is to be returned to the owners.
ut is expected that this act, prop
erly carried out. will clear up all the
confusion caused by the many different
acts passed from time TO time as the.
war progressed. and will eventually
result in the Shipping Board return
ing TO its pre-war status. to continue
under the original act creating the
Shipping Board"

Matthew Vol. president OF the In

in a statement issued last night de-
MED that an article written by him
FOR the September number Of the
'American Photo Engraver,' entitled

was intended to criticise any one of
the four other international printing
trades unions for their action in post
poning the enforcement OF the forty

WASHINGTON. Oct. 12-Unless
something totally unexpected here
happens before tomorrow night there
IS strong probability that the steel
strike will be on the way to settle
ment. The National Industrial Con-
ference will rot reconvene until Tues
day, but the general committee Of
fifteen will meet tomorrow afternoon
to resume consideration of the resolu-
ton now before it dealing with the
steel strike.
When the committee adjourned Fri
das It Was with hope running nigh for
settlement q the strike. Delegates
most concerned with the issue have
been discussing the question with
their home advisers for two days. 1t
was 20 PERM. this that tho adjourn
ment was taken, with the strong hope
and BELIEF that after such cons idera~
ton complete agreement would be
possible. Nothing here indicates that
this hope will be disappointed. It is
strengthened from 2 source close 70
one OF the high authorities OF the
conference, who made clear his belief
that there was ever reason for con-
iidencc in the outcome.
Resolution Expected to Pass
1t Is suggested .ha. while he reso.u-
ton ma l.UJ go Through .ne confcr-
ence in lis present form, il Will be re-
ported out OF committee in a manner
satisfactory 70 all groups, and with 10
less strength and meaning than il has
IN the original.
Of course, something may happen 20
undo what has been done and 70 throw
the chances OF settlement into the dis
card. This. however, III the judgment
of closest observers. is unlikely.
1t is recognized by most oi the con-
ferrees that failure to agree on the
blow to the conference and might lead
10 its disruption. Powerful influences
will contend to the last against any
thing that would bring the conference
to 4 crash. There is excellent ground
for the belief that such influences al
ready have been brought to bear.
Liberal Spirit Shown
The conference itself has shown no
tendencies to precipitate a crisis, but
on the contrary has evidenced every
QcSlTe TO pIuCeeu Win as III uCH mar
mony as poss bile. In the committee of
fifteen there has been none Of tho
fierce contention indicated in some
reports. There has heen a remarkably
broad gauged spirit shown throughout
the whole discussion. ThiA Is said on
the best Of authority.
If the committee and the conference
can handle tire steel situation satis-
factorily to all groups, door will have
been opened through which such issues
as collective bargaining may be taken
up with prospects of success. Also. in
that event, it is almost certain that
the conference will be called upon to
interest itself in other disputes now
disturbing the industrial world But
failure to agree on the first issue will
be taken by many as the torerunner
Of complete failure.
Il look upon the chance Of agree
ment with the greatest hope" one Of
the few delegates remaining in Wash
ingtoN said tonight. "And l believe
that much good Will have been accom-
plished during the first few hours after
We reconvcne.
