WANT HIGHER WAGES ANYWAY
Railroad shopmen Intimate That Re-
duction in Living Costs Is Not Enough

WASHINGTON, Aug 22-Early ac-
ton to settle unrest in the ranks of
railroad employees who have been de-
handing new. wage increases is indieat-
ed. After a long conference yester-
day with the representatives of the six
shop crafts, Director General Hines
went to the White House to discuss
with President Wilson the problems
facing the railroad administration
Mr.. Hines promised the shopmen's
leaders that he will endeavor to reach
decision soon, indicating that he viii
order into effect any changes in the
wage scale without referring the de-
mands to a board for investigation
The shopmen said that they do not
rest primarily on the increased cost of
living, but on the proposition that
wages of railroad shopmen ought TO
be more in line with wages for similar
work in other industries This state
ment was interpreted to mean that any
reductions in wages if prices of neces-
sites come down, will be unacceptable
The union officials asserted that wages
paid TO railroad shopmen are lower than
those paid to shopmen in private indus
tries, in ship yards and in navy yards
under government control.

Hoover Says Archduke Joseph Must Be
Rumanians Getting
Hungarian Food.

PARIS, Aug. % ASSOCIATED Press.
Herbert Hoover, head of the Inter
national Relief organization. who has
Just returned from a two-weeks' trip
through Central Europe. told Ameri
can correspondents yesterday that it is
imperative that decisive action be TAX
on immediately to displace Archduke
Joseph as head of the Hungarian gov
eminent and to give Hungary chance
to establish a popular government.
The new countries of Central Europe,
Mr.. Hoover said, are terrorized by the
tolerance shown toward the setting up
Of the Hapsburg government in Hun
gary.
Mr.. Hoover. who left Vienna Monday
night, appeared yesterday before the
supreme council. and made his COM
ments on the Hungarian situation to
American newspapermen after he left
the council meeting.
In discussing the Hungarian situa-
ton with the newspapermen, Mr. Hoo
yer asserted that Archdulle Joseph s
resignation can be forced within five
DAYS if the supreme council takes a
firm stand but that bloodshed will re-
suit if such action is postponed for a
month.
The United States can prevent the
restoration of the Hapsburgs, Mr.
Hoover said, by refusing to recognize
or to deal with such government. 1t
is beyond the endurance of any red
blooded American, he said, to see his
Government tolerate the restoration OF
the Hapsburgs, as the United States
entered tha war to baDiSh from the
world that for which the Hapsburgs
and The Hohenzollerns stood.
