MOVEMENT TO PREVENT ARMED
 INTERVENTION IN MEXICO

Washington, Sept S.-Existence of an organized propaganda movement in the united States. calculated 10 coun- teract any step toward armed inter vention in Mexico. was established at the first hearing today of the sena Id lorelSn relations sub committee charged with investigating the Mexi- can situation
 Dr. Samuel Guy Inman. an officer in the League of Free Nations Associa- ton and a former neighbor in Mexico of President Carranza. admitted un- der sharp cross examination that his association had sent out literature aimed to quiet any demand for inter Vention by the United States in tho southern republic. Dr. Inman told the committee that American oil compan- ies were eXpending large sums of money in an attempt to obtain i'm tervention, but under cross -examina- tion said he recently had been told that the oil interests were opposed to interVer tiOn.
 Dr. Inman in opening his testimony told the committee that in his opin- ion President Carranza was a man of honor and integrity and that he had a strong faith in the ability of Meyi- co to work out it's own problems if given friendly assistance by the Unit ed States. He deprecated interven- tion, adding that it would stunt the growth of the carefully cultivated Pan American idea.
 Bisop James Cannon of the Metho- dist Episcopal Church. South, followed Inman with .he assertion that tho only intervention advisable in Mexico was that of the church and school.
 During the cross examination which followed his testimony. Inman was subjected to sharp questioning by Senator Fall. New Mexico. chairman of the sub committee. and Senator Brandegee, Connecticut. He many times admitted that he was unable to give the committee details of charges which he had made. and at his re- quest will be permitted to appear again.

2,ooo DELEGATES AT THE
 CONVENTION OF SHOPMEN

Detroit, Mich, Sept. S.-Definite ac- tion by the end of this week on the threatened strike is expected of the convention of the United Brother ployes and Railway Shop Laborers which opened it's sessions here today with more than 2,0oo delegates from the United States, Canada and Pana- ma Canal Zone present.
 The membership has already voted power to the executive committee to call a continent-wide strike of the 60o000 in these crafts unless wage de- mands and working agreements ask ed of the railway administration of the United States and the Canadian government are granted.
 On Friday the convention. after hearing the report of the national committee which presented the de- General of the Railroads Walker b. Hines, will discuss the wage question and probably will take decisive action on the proposed strike.
 Delegates anticipated today that MT. Hines, who addresses the conven- tion Wednesday, will then state the administrations stand regarding the demands. The men are firm in their determination, brotherhood officers state not to accept compromise. even on the basis of the four cents an hour increase decided upon by President Wilson for other railroad workers; with the plea that they suspend ac- tion on wage demands until the gov ernment completes it's campaign to return conditions to normal.
 Delegates hold that the brother hood is not reasonable in asking an aVera ge daily increase of $1 per man, with the proViSo that the lower paid men receive the greater benefit. claim ing that 25 per cent. of the member ship receive not more than $2.50 per day. They also claim an unfair dis crepancy in wages paid on various roads and in different parts of the country and therefore demand stand 
 Among resolutions to be introduced this week will be one proposing the establishment by the brotherhood of a "cross of peace" to be presented to rail workers for exceptional efficien- cy and acts of heroism performed during the war emergency. The palm" will be added for repetitions of such acts.

 EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS

Boston. Sept. S.-The car men on the Eastern Massachusetts Street Railway will be called out on strike on Wed nesday unless the trustees accept be- fore that time suggestions for set clement of the controversy made by union officials This was made known tonight by the issuance of a stste- ment signed by William J. Murphy, chairman and Edward J. Donnelly. secretary of the joint conference board of the fifteen locals of the carmens union on the system.
 The car men recently voted to re- ject an award of 12 per cent. increase in wages by the Federal War Labor Board and to strike at the call of n b-committee of the joint conference board, comprising the chairman a"d secretary.
