RAIL ROAD LEADERS
WILL NOT GEORGE
NAVE mo INTENTION" TO I'M
PRESS PROPOSALS ON PUBLIC
BY THREATS OR VIOLENCE"
Statement Issued in National Capital
Appeal to Common Sense OF
the American Peopie.-Men Are
Gradually Returning to Work.

Washington.-Leade Of the fifteen
organizations of railroad employees
united Saturday in a definite asser'
ton that they had" no desire and
have had none, 10 impress apon the
public by violence or by threat their
proposal that the railroads be national
lied under "tripartite control
Declaring that the requests of the
men that living costs be reduced or
rheir wages increased was aside from
the question Of the future disposition
of the railroad problem, the labor
leaders said that il President Wilson
and congress could not meet this re-
quest the men would TRY to find an
other solution"
Plans for the formation of national
conference for railroad control were
discussed at luncheon attended by
representatives of the bOrtherhoods
and prominent persons from various
parts of the country who were invited
by the brOtherhOods To be members al
the conference as Representatives OF
the public.
While the labor leaders did not men
ton the presidents address to con
greSs it was the general belief that
their statement resulted from his
warning to the labor world that strikes
would only make present conditions
worse and that those who sought Ia
employ threats or coercion were only
preparing their own destruction"
Two distinctly separate considera-
tons now confront the people. the
wage requirements Of the railroad en-
ployees, and the Sims bill (embodying
the railway employees plan for reor-
ganization of the railroad>).
I'm the matter of wages we have
submitted an eminently just PROPOSE
ton. We have said that if we are to
continue to live as Americans should
live and are to care for our families
as American families should be cared
for, the profiteers must be restrained
or our wages increased. Every fair
minded man, and every intelligent
housewife, will recognize the reason
ableness of this request. If congress
and the president cannot meet this re-
quest, it is still living question and
We shall have to try to find another
solution.

OF LINES BY MORGAN AND
ROCKEFELLER is ALLEGED.
Sensational Statements Made Before
House Committee by Attorney for
Brotherhoods Of the Railway
Employees.

Misunderstanding directly from
Wall street and from the banking
houses controlled directly by the Nor
gan and Rockefeller groups" informa-
ton whach has come into the posses
sion of the railroad brotherhoods
shows that there has preceded sys-
tematized plundering of virtually all
of the public transportation highways
in the United States" the house inter-
state commerce committee was told by
Glen f. Plumb of Chicago.
There was no connection between
the presentation of the Plumb plan to
congress and labor disturbances and
demands for higher wages. Plumb said,
replying to question by Chairman
THE fact that both broke together"
Plumb added, was due to your invi-
tation to appear at this time. Other
wise, our plan would have been pre-
sented in the fall"
Definite information on which his
charges were based. Mr.. Plumb said,
would be turned over TO the commit
tee, upon which it may ask for full
congressional investigation"
I'VE believe such an investigation"
he continued, twill reveal that there
is not one railroad system dominating
any part of the 254,000 miles of rail
roads in the United States but has suf-
fered and is suffering, in a degree if
not to the same extent. from carefully
deliberated manipulations of the sort
that have wrecked and ruined the rail-
roads have mentioned 1t will reveal
that these interests are again gather
ing~their forces of private and secret
control, and seek, after having gained
from congress sanction to rehabili-
tate their railroad properties at public
expense, to begin again and follow
through its corrupt and wicked cycle
the systematized plundering and loot
ing of the public and the public in
terest in the nations highways.
In view of the gravity of this Situ-
alton, and in order that we may have
the benefit of their counsel on behalf
of the public in presenting our state
ment to congress and to the American
people, the fourteen affiliated railway
labor organizations are summoning to
Washington a national conference on
railroad control.

Mrs. Carnegie was at her husbands
bedside In the last hour of his life, but
he did not revive sufficiently to permit
of any sign Of recognition. Their
daughter, Margaret, who last April
married Ensign Roswell Miller. OF New
York, was notified that 1t was appar-

she buried from her home ut Mill

Although Mr.. Carnegie, who was In
his eighty-fourth year, had been an
invalid since 1917. when he suffered
an attack Of grippe. the news of his
death was IA shock to old friends and
former business associates. Since his
previous illness he had been under the
care of two nurses.
Identified so long with the interna-

was said To have been more severely
affected by the world war than most
men. 1t came as hard blow to him
and the cause which he had so close
