DISPUTE REFERRED ID THE FEDERAL
 OPERATING BOARD
ax Assnriafed Press

Atlanta. May 31.-The dispute be- tween the southen Hell Telephone and Telegraph company and certain of its result in n nation-wide strike of conn merciaI telegraph operators, telephone and electrical workers Monday, has been referred to the government oper- ating board in New York, which. com trols the telephone and telegraph conn panies. J. Epps Brown. president of the Southern Bell, said here late today.
 Union leaders said late today
 they had received a telegram from
 Postmaster General Burleson re-
 questing that they take no decisive
 action pending m investigation.
 Their reply, they said, was that the
 only way to avert the strike was
 for the telephone company to re-
 instate the discharged operators by
 noon Monday and that an investi-
 gation could he made later.
 Asserting that fl local telephone girls were discharged Thursday for joining the Commercial Telegraphers' Union of America, a union committee today presented to the company an ulti- matum demanding reinstatement for the employees with the alternative of nation wide strike at o'clock Monday afternoon. In brief statement later Mir. Brown said:
 ..Six out of the $50 telephone opera tors employed by us in Atlanta have been discharged since May 1. each one for inefficiency sor infraction of the rules without regard to whether or not they are members of the union.
 We don't know who are or who are not members of the union We make no distinctions between union and non- union employees
 Under government control. Mir Brown said, the company had carefully ob- served orders of the Postmaster Gener- al issued October s, 1918, warning against any discrimination against em- pIoyes ''because they do or do not be- long to any particular union"
 The number of young women dis charged during May. he said. he re- garded as remarkably low, considering that they were only six out of $50 em- ployes This, he said, was below the monthly evarge.
 Members of the committee which presented the ultimatum said their next step was to make report at union meeting tomorrow night They reit- erated that fl operators had been dis charged for union activities. but did not claim 100 as reported in union cir cles in Washington.
 Reports were circulated here late to- day that the company had been ordered to reinstate the discharged operators pending an Investigation, but President Brown said he had received no such instructions, and in fact had had no reply from the. operating board in New York.
 The strike. if it should be called, would involve 100000 commercial tele- graph operators and telephone workers throughout the United States. union leaders said. and later might involve the 100000 members of the Order of Railway telegraphers. About 2o00 would be ofrected here, they asserted.

 "It is not a village it is not town; it is the backbone of Jewry which seems to be broken MT. Warburg declared. after describing the widespread suffer-
 ing imposed by the war upon the race in Poland, Russia, Serbia, Holland, France and Greece.
 He urged governmentally planned en- terprises. financed by international loans, to relieve the condition of Jewish suf- ferers and advocated a campaign in the United States for adoption of or: phaned Jewish children along lines sim liar to those followed in providing for homeless and parentless children in Bel gium and France.

Feilps Angeles, recently proclaimed by Villa $ forces as provisional president of Mex ico. has sent communication 10 Washington, it was learned today, for presentation to the state department. setting forth his objects in leading the revolution now in progress in north ern Mexico.

He made it plain, how ever. that General Angeles was rs- garded as an excellent soldier with q good record.
 In the communication which he hoped would reach the department, General Angeles declared the primary purpose of his revolution was to re- store the constitution of 1857, which he pointed out provides for the legal change of the fundamental laws of the country and which makes the 2uEAStdIB& EpISlilQllO1 AllF4 " illc-dl He promised protection to all legal interests of Mexicans and foreigners and said he wanted to restore law and order in all parts of the republic.

Paris, May 31.-The secret plenary session of the peace conference this afternoon de cided to present the peace treaty to the Austrains at noon Monday. The small powers claimed reservations on the financial and separations clauses.
 The session was held in the foreign office and was largely attended. It de- veIoped a spirited discussion. Premier Bratiano of Rumania, M. Trumbitch of serbia, Premier yenizelOs of Greece and the Czecho- Slovak delegation presented reservations on the financial and repa- rations terms.
 II. Clemeneeau replied, chiefly on the criticisms regarding lack of time, point ing out that more time should be grant, ed than was originally asked.
 President Wilson also made con- tiIiatory speech urging that the great powers had borne the chief rcsponsf- Utilities and had carefully considered the interests of the small powers.
 The rights of the minorities on ques- tfons of race, language and religion were objected to by the small powers, which maintained that this WAS an fn- Judgement of their sovereignty. M. Clemenceau assured them that this would be considered by the council of four before the treaty was presented. An agreement thereupon was reached to proceed with the presentation Of the treaty Monday, excepting the hnan- ciaI and reparations sections, and per haps the military section, which may be further revised.
