those affected, in reality it does moth
ing or the sort, but instead it contem.
plates that the men shall work ns
long as sixteen hours in one day. in
disregard of the Federal regulations
winch forbid men in a responsible
ard dangerous calling from working
more than thirteen hours at stretch
AS to the majority of boats in the
haroor, the twelve-hour day is con-
tinued in effect, subject to future in
vestlgations by proposed joint COM
mission WIN
I'VE. submit that the record in this
case shows the futility of trusting to
any joint commission which must de-
pend on the cooperation of the pri
vate boat owners for its successful
iunctionlng, and our members can see
IN this project nothing but the Ger
tainty of further Illustration and de-
nial OF our just demand. The boat
owners have already deliberately
destroyed one such joint commission.
whlch was set up by their joint agree
ment. and have refused to obey the
order of the War Labor Board to re-
constitute this commission.
AS for our demand for a living
wage, the umpire's award passes over
an the conclusive testimony showing
tnat we are now receiving less than
the minimum amounts which have
been established by the War Labor
noaro own statlsticians as necessary
10 MAINTAIN our families in health and
comfort, and we are refused anv in
crease IN wages whatever.
Talk About Profits
This is in spite Of the testimony
showing that the industry has been
Immensely profitable to all concerned
except the men who actually perform
the arduous and dangerous work o.
handling The traffic of the port, and in
spite OF the admission of the boat own
crs at the hearings that their ability
to pay increased wages is not in dis.
pute.
"Fhe most conclusive evidence of the
failure of the umpire to deal iustlv
with our demands is the fact that the
abroad administration in November
last. voluntarily increased wages for
employees on the railroad harbor craft
to point substantially in excess of
the wages now being paid by private
boat owners and which the umpire now
seeks to make permanent.
:. AS ofncers of the marine affilia-
tion it Is our duty to inform YOU
that the marine workers are bitterly
disappointed that the whole scheme of
government wage adjustment in this
port has been upset and thrown into
confusion, and that the men whom we
represent insist upon leaving their
work in a body rather than accept an
award which they feel to be denial
OF Justice. We are respectfully,

This was agreed to and 8 o'clock this
afternoon set as the time at which he
! should appear before the strike COM
mittee with his proposal.
Report Back to Unions
Mr.. Delahunty, with his associates.
Captain William A. Maher, of the
Masters, Mates and Pilots, and F. Paul
A. Nacarelli, reported back to the strike
committee early last evening. They
recommended that nothing be done
until after the formal offer was pre-
sented. After some debate, in which
the representatives, of several unions
urged an immediate strike, the report
was adopted.
Walker d. Hines, director general
of railroads, and A. II. Smith, regional
director, have been asked to attend
the meeting with Mr.. Bonynge, the
railroads operating n large number of
the harbor boats The army and navy
Will not be represented, Colonel Har-
rlson j. Carrick, for tho army, and
Captain A. c. Ilutchcson, for tho navy,
having agreed to abide by any agree
ment tho private owners might make
and, in tho event Of strike, to confne
the operations of their boats to mov-
ing transports and the regular work
of their departments
The morning session of the strike
committee was marked by the dispatch
ing of kilograms to President Wilson,
notifying him of the seriousness of
the situation here, and to the War
Labor Board, withdrawing the case
from its hands. Then came the vote
to strike at o'clock to-day and the
adoption of resolution offered by
F. Paul A. Vacarelli exempting ferries,
troop ships and supplies to institu-
inns resolution carried with it the
declaration of intention to avoid as
much as possible any discomfort to
the general public.
Asked Another Chance
1t was at this point that A. II.
Stockder,. an attache of the United
states Shipping Board, went to the
meeting with a proposition that the
strike order be held up in order to
permit an offer of a settlement from

tee this afternoon. Mr.. Bonynge de-
cllned to discuss the details of the
proposition he expects to make. He
said, however, that his clients were
anxious to stabilize conditions in New
York harbor.
The admission by the representative
OF the operators that the Macy award
is unfair made a favorable impress
sion on members of the strike com
mittee. Reports reaching the commit
tee during the day showed that the
operators we're interpreting the award
to suit themselves.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2s.-Basil M.
Manley, joint chairman with William
II. Taft, Of the War Labor Board. said
to-day that the board could do no
more in the matter of the harbor
troubles in New York. The board un-
der its rule had referred the matter
to Mr.. Macy as umpire, he said, and
would abide by his decision.
Frank p. Walsh, counsel for the
men, was unable to get an audience
with President Wilson to-day. At the
White House it was said that the
President had not taken up the matter
OF the threatened strike.

Work Started By Highway Board


Atlanta. -Georgia's new highway
commission got down to work soon
after the members we're sworn in by
Governor Dorsey when they met at
the capital for the first time. The
three members, who include Pro-
c. NJ. Strahan, head OF the civil en-
gineering department OF the Univer.
sity of Georgia; G. Nicely OF Way
nesboro, and Jtanley Bennett OF Quit
man, made their first official action
the election Of w. X. Neel as state
highway engineer. Mr.. Neel held this
position und9 the former commission.
Mr.. Neel was instructed to proceed
at once with the organization of tho
staff of the highway department, and
to fill the various positions, such as
chief field engineer, assistant eng;-
neer and clerks, so that active work
may be carried one. 1t is understood
that practically all the present force
of the state highway department will
be retained so that there will be lit
tie or no delay from this cause. The
commission decided to hold meetings
in Atlanta the fourth Friday Of each
month, but vested such power in the
chairman that he will be able to look
after the details of the work, and
shoulder such responsibilities for the
members as is necessary for expedit-
ing affairs between now and the time
of the next meeting.

Discussing for the first time during

tions to the league of nations, Presi-
dent Wilson replied in an address at
Omaha, Neb., to arguments advanced
by those who facor reservations.
The proposed reservation providing
for unconditional withdrawal from
membership, said the president,
meant that it's sponsors wanted to
"sit near the door with their hands
on the knob" and if they saw any
thing they didn't like ito scuttle and
run"
The league proviso that information
al obligations must be fulfilled before
withdrawal never would restrain the
United States, he said, because this
nation always would live up to its pro
visions. Those who wanted a reser-
walton to Article x, Mr. Wilson con-
tinued, simply didn't want to come
in now, but wanted to be 'late join
ers.'
Any reservation regarding the Mon
roe doctrine, be added, was unneces-
sary. because the doctrine has been
swallowed, hook, line and sinker,
by the peace conference, and had been
authenticated by the big powers OF
the world for the first time.
So far as reservations about do
nestle questions were concerned, he
declared, it would be work of super

Atlanta. --AccOrdin to S. J. Slate,
state game commissioner, the game
season this fall will open auspiciously
and it Is stated that the reports from
many sections give cause for bright
prospects. "The department OF game
and fish" Mr. Slate says, has been
recognized and the appointments
made for the term beginning 1919 to
1921. We hope to make the depart
ment more efficient for the next two
years. and we desire to have the most
hearty cooperation of all the sports
men and all parties interested in our
work. While the rains have not been
beneficial to quail, deer, doves and
squirrels are very numerous The
first hatch of quail came out all right
and the birds will be larger than
usual. 1t is to be hoped that all peo-
pie will respect the opening dates
Of the season and that 50 far as pos
sible every attempt will be made to
keep people out Of the fields quail
shooting until November 20. In south
Georgia the report as to the number
Of deer and wild turkey is very en-
couraging. After a year OF stress
such as the one through which we
have just passed, after a period in
which we have all struggled to place
our business affairs upon new ba-
sis the fields and woods of Georgia
invite you to a season OF recreation.
Our fall fishing on the coast should
be better than usual and nature her
self with her floods has interviewed
to largely protect our fish in many
of our fresh water streams from the
reckless hands of the dynamiter and
other wholesale destroyers of fish.
This state is wonderfully blessed with
many places to which the sportsman
can go and we will be very glad to
give any information to anybody in
the state relative to reports that have
been received in this office from diff
ferent sections.
