Gerrnan-PoIisl Strife Abates
Feutons Get Potatoes i'm Return
for Trade Concession

DANZlG, May (By the Associated
Press).-Cn the initiative Of the Amer
lean mission, the Germans and Poles
reached an agreement Friday whereby
the Poles will deliver 10000 tons of
potatoes to Germany, the latter permit
ting the Poles to ship gods to Czecho-
Slovakia. The Poles also agreed to
cease disturbing railway traffic.
Tho foregoing dispatch indicates
that the danger Of another clash be-
tween The Germans and Poles over
control Of the railways in the Posen
and Danzig regions has been averted
lt also shows that the conflict between
the Poles and Czecho-Slovnks over the
Ieschen m'nc area has been settled or
placed in abeyance, since the dispatch
reports that the Poles are permitted
to send food to Czecho-Slovakia.

THE four railroad brotherhoods
are again asking more mouey or
threatening to strike. They are
asking big increases in pay for
several hundred thousand men,
and yet the railroads cannot make
enough monday to pay them at
the eyoI bitant freight and pass
engor rates which are being
charged. They are also asking
that the government take perma
nent control of roads, and there
is no telling what else they will
want. Railroad men are the best
paid men we have to day and ye
they are not satisfied. If the
spirit of Bolshevikism is not be
ing manifested by railroad men,
it Is certainly something that Is
very close akin. Elk Presidenl
