300 C0ASTWISE SHIPS
 LAY IDLE |N NEW YORK:
 CREWS LEAVE VESSEL
SEAMEN ARRIVING IN BOSTON DESERT SHIPS-NEW YORK OFFICIALS MAY CALL FOR STATE GUARD TO
 PROTECT PROPERTY.

New York, July 16-Failure of coastwise steamers to leave port on schedule time owing to the strike of firemen, oilers and water tenders has result ed in a great accumulation of freight on the piers of the lines affected. It was estimated 300 vessels engaged in coastwise trade were tied up here by the strike.
 Representative of the steamshi D companies said that if the strike re- suited in serious disorder an appeal would be made to Governor Smith for state troops to guard their prop erty.
 Captain Frank S. Ferris, managing agent of the United States Shipping g Board, prepared lists which showed that 1S6 vessels were tied up, al- though he declared that 76 of this number were awaiting repairs.
 The strike of seamen at Boston grew today and almost every ship which arrived from domestic ports was deserted by its crew. Shipping board offices received orders from Washington to prepare to tie up in definitely all vessels operated by the board. Unless the Union accepts the terms of the board, it was said. men who have not struck will be dis charged, the supplies of the vessels will be- placed in cold storage and guards will be placed on each ship in Boston harbor.
 Police guards, including mounted men, were placed along the water front today as a precaution against a renewal of the disorder which oc- cured last night when several hun dred strikers attempted to force from several ships men who had refused to strike. The strikers replied to this move by reinforcing their pickets, who coverd the terminals of all the large coastwise companies as we'll as some of the piers of the trans-At- lantic lines.

COUNSEL FOR DRYS IN STATE MENT TO SENATE
 MAINTAINS LAW CLEAR
SAYS CONGRESS HAS RIGHT TO PREVENT THE SALE OF BEER CONTAINING 2.75 PER CENT. ALCOHOL AND DE-
 HANDS SUCH ACTION.

Washington, July 16-Au- thority of Congress to fix one half of one per cent as the maximum alcoholic content of beverages in prohibition en- forcement legislation is clear, Wayne B. Wheeler, General Counsel of the Anti-Saloon League, declared today before the senate judiciary sub-com- mitee, in answering recent statements of Samuel Unter- meyer, counsel for brewers.
 ITO allow the sale of 2.75 beer" said MT. Wheeler would keep alive the liquor trade and defeat the pur- poses of national prohibition. Friends of prohibition do not want a code unless it defines intoxicating liquors."
 Thtrty-three prohibition states, and 13 local option states, MT. Wheeler said, have laws limiting alcohol in beverages. He challenged MT. Inter meyer to produce any court decisions denying congress or state legislatures the right to make definitions.
 Congress cannot consistently adopt a weaker standard in defining the term than that already enacted in the states" said MT. Wheeler. This

 on Peace Pact.

 It was said the invitations would not be limited to members of the for eign relations committee The pres 1dent was reported as being anxious to talk to all members of the senate Republicans well as Democrats, and to answer any questions they might desire to ask
 It was also indicated that as the president had placed himself at the disposal of the foreign relations com mittee he would not begin his tour of the country until the committee had had a reasonable time in which to decide whether it wished to con- fer with him. A number of Demo- cratic senators, including Senator Pomerene of Ohio, member of the committee, had appointments with the president today.
 Senator Chamberlain of Oregon, former chairman of the senate mili- tary committee, whose criticism of the war departm early in war lead to a sharp reprimand from President Wilson was among those invited to the White House today and those close to the president hoped the con- ference would result in the reestab lishment of harmonious relations be- tween the executive and the Oregon senator.
 With the senate in adjournment un- til tomorrow, the foreign relations commission had opportunity today to devote several hours to the continua-~ ton of reading the peace treaty sec tion by section. It was expected that before night virtually the entire doc- ument would be covered for the first time, but with all the sections provok- ing objection reserved for future con-

National War Labor Board Will Give Decision "In
 Due Time"

Boston, July 16-A strike of the 1000 carmen of the Boston Elevated Railway Company appeared immi- met today. The union which com prises most of the employees of the road continued It's plans for making effective its strike order at a. m. tomorrow, with a resultant paralysis of the street, subway and elevated car service of the city and some of the suburbs.
 Efort to avert the tieup were also continued during the day, but with no great promise of success.
 An appeal to the national war labor board to hasten Its decision on the demands of the men for an eight hour day and a wage of 731k cents an hour met with a reply from W. Jett Lauck, secretary of the board, that the boards decision would be rem dered in due time"
 The issues are considered especial ly important according to the railway trustees, because, 1t is said, the eight hour schedule is not in effect on any large street railway system in the country and in no case does a wage approaching 73 cents an hour obtain.
 
 cents. Officials of the international Street Carmen's union have taken a hand in the local situation and by telegrams to Secretary of Labor Will son have endeavored to expedite ac- tion by the War Labor Board.
 In a telegram from Washington to James H. Vahey, counsel tor the union. Secretary Lauc1 said the union should rescind the strike vote and re- main at work. The board, he said, had had the case less than a month and in view of the issues involved he held the time spent in consideration to be not unreasonable.
 Difficulty in obtaining early action by the board lies, according to word from Charlton Ogburn, its chief ex- aminer, in the fact that its joint chairmen are at widely separated points. Former President Taft at Pointe eau Ric, Quebec, and Basil M. , Manly at San Diego. California, the chairmen, are in possession of the ev- idence. 1t is understood, and a meet ing in Chicago to discuss it has been arranged for later date.

 Your position was that they were advocating preparedness in order to profit by munitions?"
