In spite of all t. doubters and

changed his annoying and distressing
hay fever into less than Il mild cold,
claims most emphatically that if
taken iE time hay fo"cr can be con-
quered or at least made so harmless
that it is not even bothersome.
He gave his discovery to scores of
other sufferers with the most re-
markable result and has recently
beer prevailed upon to dispense it
through pharmacists to all hay
fever sufferers who still have faith
that nature has provided an eftec-
tive remedy for this common yet
miserable disease.

TOO brief to initiate the habits of
orderliness, coordination and self
care which proved so valuable in
the recent training of men prepar-
ing for active service. Nor is this
period believed to be too brief to
entail great advantage to the coun-
try should any future emergency re-
quire it to call for service.
Abolish Department
Regarding the chemical warfare
service, Mr.. Baker wrote:
The work appropriate to be done
py the chemical warfare service in
peace times ought, in my judgment,
10 be carried on in the Engineers
department, and should consist of
such research and preparation as
would enable our Army always to
defend itself against the aggressive
use of chemical weapons and to
overmatch any adversary in often
slVe operations should they begin
against u.s."
The Secretary also proposed that
the inspector generals department
ne abolished, saying it was clear
that the inspection of purely mill
tary training ought to be centraliz-
ed and carried out under the direct
ION of the training division of the
general staff.
1t will be observed" Mr.. Baker
continued, that the bill suggests no
change in the existing law with re-
gard to the organization of the Ma
,lonai Guard and it's relation to the
Regular Army. 1t is assumed the
IIatlonal defense act federalizing the
Guard will be retained in force and
that if any readjustment of its re-
'atlons to the Regular Army is de-
sired, it will be suggested in the
hearing" '''o

RAILROADERS FOR

Continued From First Pagc)

the government to buy the railroads
and nationaliZe them on q proflt
sharing basis with the workes is
the only equitable proposal that has
been advanced and they are grid
ing up for a struggle with capital on
the issue before Congress, which
promises to be ino.e sensational
than the fight for the Adamson
cight-hours' work for ten hours
pay law in 1917.
The Brotherhood leaders who laid
the watch on Congress over the
Adamson. law with u nationwide
strike club dangling over its dead,
are here again, and they served no
tlce on the President, Congress and
the general public yesterday, fol-
lowing introduction OF the govern
ment ownership bill, known as the
plumb plan," that thelr forces are
stronger than ever, and can be mar
shaled into action at a word of
command.
The railroad leaders do not want
to threaten a general railroad strike
IN TINS issue, they say. That is u
last resort, which they do not be-
lleVe it will be necessary to use in
this fight. They believe that the
merits of their proposal to settle
railroad difficulties on all sides, the
Ills or the present system and the
complaints of the workers, Will be
accepted by the people of the coun-
try, who will force Congress to pass
their bill.
Glen e. Plumb, counsel for the
railroad brotherhoodS and the au-
thor OF their plan will appear We'd
nesday before the House committee
on interstate and foreign commerce
on behalf of the measure. "A. b.
Garretson, who directed the fight
for the Adamson bill, and who is
Vice-president of the league, also
is scheduled to appear, but may not
be able to do so because of illness.
There are at least 100000 men
we know of in the labor organiza-
tlons, farm organizations and other
associations of the United States"
said Mr.. Plumb tonight, who are
supporting our plan for solution of
the railroad problem.
Il am convinced that this is
very modest estimate. In fact, there
are 100000 who are, in effect,
pledged to support it,
I'VE have behind this movement
to-day more votes than any politi-
cal army in this country ever has
cast, but, in this movement we are
making no attempt to form a politi-
cal party. Our fight is to be abso-
lutely nonpolitical. 1t will not be
necessary, in, our opinion, to make
any political appeal. Our proposal
Will appeal to the good sense of
men in all parties
