Wayne county, swung by the senti-

men in her borders, farmers and shop
men, has registered a decisive vote
against the league of nations. either
In it's present form or with reserva-

Only 244 men want the league in its
present form, against 362 who are
against 1t under any conditions. A
feature is that the men who are gen.

education, register slight majority
for the league, those supposedly of
least education throwing the balance
against it.

LONDON. Oct. 1.AWhile the dele

assembling today to decide whether
the 325,000 workers they represented
should go out in sympathy with the
striking railroad men Of Great Britain
the governments official report on
the situation, issued at noon, announc-

BAD MANAGEMENT
WRECKED TROLLEY

(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-Past finan-
cial mismanagement, not increased
wages to employees, was declared to be
the primary cause Of the desperate fl
nancial straits of the trolley lines of
the country, in an opening statement
for labor presented today to the feder-
al electric railway commission.
1t was read by w. Jett I4auck, who
said labor representatives expected to
show that labor efficiency had steadily
increased, while wage advances had
not kept pace with the rise of other
g ,,11s.ess 1s,.st It'd VI az FcgrF fs Dor
efficiency has been absorbed by fic-
titious capitalization.
Calling attention to- a presidential
proclamation during the war, n14o
the terms of the peace treaty as
having accepted as fundamental
rights Of labor the principle of an eight
hour day, living wage, and union
recognition Lauck said labor would
contend that the commission should
accept these principals as an essen
tial condition to any recommendations
which it may make for rehabilitation
OF the street railway industry.

rs MEN BEGIN WORK
FOR JEWISH RELIEF;
APPEAL IS GIVEN

The local campaign in behalf of the
Jewish relief movement, began We'd
resday under favorable conditions,
and with every indication that the
same liberality, which has been in
evidence in all campaigns since the
war, will again be manifest.
Ten teams of solicitors, composed of
seventy-five Richmond business men,
began their rounds, and will continue
until all prospective contributors have
been visited. Reports will be made
daily of the results.

little ones may some day grow up. il

to enjoy some little hope for the

in vain? Are those little ones to suf

them?

leans will never fail, when suffering

made by the shipping board and navy
department that there would be no
opposition to payment, of increased
