@. III. Murphy relates the story Of a

the days of his active practice, was
notorious for his long-windedness.
On one occasion he had been spout
ing forth his concluding argument for
six hours, and the end was nowhere
in sight, when the opposing attorney
beckoned his associate and whispered:
"Can't you stop him, Jack?"
I'll stop him in two minutes" Jack
replied confidently. And he wrote
and passed to the orator the following
note: VI
my Dear Colonel-As soon as you
finish your magnificent argument !
would like you to join me at the no

The lawyer halted in the midst of
an ~impassioned period, put on his
glasses, and read the note that hnd

glasses again and, taking up his hat
and bag, he said:
"And now. may 1t please the court

AMERICAN ASSISTANCE IN
 REHABILITATION OF GERMANY

New York, Nov. 11.-American as. sistance in the rehabilitation of Ger many was urged tonight by Otto H, Kahn at a dinner of the Council oi Foreign Relations. After referring ts the stand taken by English and French statesmen in advocating trade witf Germany, he said:
 America should not lag behind. The the peace treaty is ratified is not con- elusive. We can and should act now in making available for Germany aa well as for other countries foodStudE which are urgently. indeed vitaliy, needed. and essential raw materials. Our self interest requires it. Our duty to the world at large requires it. The charitableness and humanity which are part of Americanism require it"
 |. Lest he be accused of making this suggestion because of his German an cestry, MT. Kahn said he had indorsed
 the allied cause before the United States entered the war. He declared
 the German people and rulers were guilty of perhaps the most horrible crime of history. but the question now was whether sixty million people, nat urally given to good order and hard work, having in the past contributed
 much to the common assets shall he
 made useful in re-equipping and lisrr i malizing world sadly out oi gear slIld sorely beset by insufficient production or whether, listening to the counseii of despair, they shall surrender tt those who promise them salvation l through chaos

Washington, Nov. 1.-The execu- tive council of the American Fedora tion of Labor, after special meeting today, gave out this statement:

 "The attorney general evades and ignores the broken pledge and bad faith of the administration in respect to these facts.''

MINERS HAVE CALLED OFF THE COAL STRIKE;
 GOVT TOHELP NEGOTIATE WAGE AGREEMENT

America have led the way.
 Eighty thousand members of the united Mine Workers of America en- tered the military service in the world war, and more than three thousand gave their lives in that struggle. The United Mine Workers and it's mem bers bought more than $10. .0b0. 900 worth of Liberty bonds out of their small earnings. They contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars to the Red Cross. the Salvation Army, the Knights of Columbus, the Y. M. c. A. and every other war relief fund. The nation asked the coal miners for a maximum output of coal during the war, and they produced more coal than ever before in the history of the world-the coal that won the war for liberty and American ideals.
 The coal miners believe in observ- ance of the law of the land When their government speaks they obey regardless of personal sacrifices. Nat urally, then. when the government told them to call off the strike they re- sponded periodically and loyally.
 Now, what will tie operators do?

Washington, Nov. 1.-The peace treaty drifted into the doldrums again today. the senate talking for seven hours and accomplishing noth- ing.
 Tonight each side was blaming the other for the delay and hopes of wind ing up the whole treaty fight this week were waning rapidly.

RAILROAD REGULATION
 BILL '5EFoRETHE HOUSE

Washington, Nov. 11.-T1xpressions of opposition in the house today to government ownership of railroads drew applouSe from both democratic and republican members when debate of the house railroad regulation bill began.
 After hearing proponents of the Plumb plan for government owner ship with employee operation, the committee was convinced that gov ernment ownership was not and never can be the solution of the railroad
 problem, declared Representative Esch, Wisconsin, chairman of the in
 terstate commerce committee. Consideration of the bill, was begun
 under programme calling for ses-
 sions continuing late into the night House leaders hope that the measure can be passed by Saturday, permit ting early adjustment of the special session so far a the house is con-

 The debate developed opposition to many features of the committee meas ] ure. Representative Sanders, demo- crat, Louisiana, declared against it as | fundamentally wrong" and likely tc result in the final burial Of steam boata.'' Discussion was confined ! largely to explanation of provisions creating boards for the voluntary ad- l justment of labor disputes, with pro- visions for collecting damages iron

PRESIDENT WILSON LEFT
 SICK BED ARMISTIcE DAY

Washington. Nov. 1.-Two events Of national importance not on the ar- ranged program-the arrival of the Prince of Wales as the guest of the nation and President Wilson's leaving his bed for the first time since illness forced him to abandon his speaking tour last nlonth-marked the celebra- ton of Armistite day in Washington. A general feeling of relief in officiaI circles eyer the oecision of the soft coal miuets to res cind the strike order was another high "oint in the day set apart to commemorate the ending of hostilities in the war.
 Rain fell almost continuously during the day. forcing many of the arranged events of celebration to be held inside in departments and bureaus. The rain, however, could not dampen the ardor of those participating in the ceremo2 nieS connected with the planting of two memorial California redwood trees in Lafayette square. opposite the White House. At the anniversary hour IL o'clock in the morning, the rattle of nusketry from the army firing pla- toon formally announced that the trees were in place. banked by earth brought from many states for the pur- pose, and with memorial documents to
 be sheltered for years to come beneath ! their roots.
 Tonight a chorus of community singers gathered on the steps of the treasury across from the White | House, to serenade Mir Wilson.
 The president had planned some 1 days in advance to leave his sick bed today as in some measure his own l commemoration of the significance of
 Armistice day, and. reposing in 9
 wheel chair. was able to hear part oi i the program arranged by the singers in his honor.
 1 Formal expressions as to the day's
 meaning in not only American but
 world history were sent to the coun- l try by the president cabinet ministers, 1 Generals Pershing and March and 1 other officials during the day. Secre- tary Daniels added to his formal state.

CANADA WANTS RETURN OF
 25,ooo BOX CARS FROM U. s.

Montreal, Nov. 11.-Prompt return of 25,oo0 Canadian box cars. from the United States to relieve the Canadian shortage is being sought by the Do- minion government. Referring to a Washington announcement that the large number. Of Canadian cars in the United States was due to the coal strike, the Canadian railway war board asserted today that since the first of the year the average number of Cana dian cars in the United States was 45,067, while the number of United States cars in Canada was 19.926.
 -"The inference is, therefore" said a statement by the board, that Cana dian cars are being used in local ser vice in the United States and that this is one ot the reasons for the failure to return them to Canada"
 The board charges that despite re- peated assurances by the United States railroad administration that Canadian cars would be sent home. the move ment has been entirely inadequate The Dominion government. it was said was now taking action through the minister of railways.

In replyrng, Senator Rob- inson, democrat. Arkansas, drew Re public Leader Lodge into the debate by quoting from a senate address made by MT. Lodge last December de- claring it was the duty of this country to help the neN weak nations to get on their feet.
 T thought then" said the repubii- can leader, ''and I still think, il was our duty to help establish certain states who were to be a barrier against Germany, and to help those states to make a start. But when I made that statement I had no idea we were to be handed out document which would bind us for all time everywhere.
 And since then several things have happened. We have deprived Poland of her seaport at Danzig. We have declined to give France the left bank of the Rhine. and for that reason we ! have pending a treaty of alliance to i protect France. We have meddled at 1 Plume. We have taken Thrace from the Greeks, to whom it belonged. The 1 government that so manages other
 peoples affairs ought to get out of the l husiness-the sooner the better.".
