WICHITA CARMEN FILE CASE.
Ask Industrial Court to Grant Them
Increased Wages.

Motormen and conductors employed
by the Wichita Railroad & Light COM
pany today filed wage increase de-
mands with the court of industrial re-
lations. The petition is similar to the
application presented to the court last
week on behalf of the Topeka Railway
company employees.
Both the Topeka and Wichita street
railway lines are owned by the Nc
Kinley syndicate. In Topeka and Oak
land a six cent street car fare is
charged. while in Wichita the city
commission is holding tenaciously to
pre-war prices for public utilities and
patrons ride for a nickel. Because
the Wichita line affects but the one
city. it was precluded from hearing
on the rate application before the old
public utilities commission.
Employees of the Street Railway
company in Wichita sought to consol-
idate their case with the application
of Topeka Oakland employees. The
Mckinley syndicate refused to accept
the consolidation in view of the diff
ference in passenger rates. In conse-
quence a second petition embodyine
the allegations In the Topeka-Oakland
complaint was filed. Both petitions
urge that employees are not receiving
a fair and just wage and are entitled
to advances in keeping with increased
cost of living. No demand is made

Refuses to Make Ac-
ceptable Peace Treaty.
Resolution Then Only Way to
End State of War.
SENATOR KELLOGG BACKS KNOX
Leader of Mild ReservatiOnists
Originally Opposed Resolution.
Senate to Vote on Resolution
Saturday Is Decision.

Washington, May 15.-The provi-
sion in the Republican peace resolu-
ton requesting the president to open
negotiations with Germany for a sep
arate treaty was stricken out today on
motion of Senator Lodge of Massachu
setts, the Republican leader.
After the provision had been strick-
en- out agreement was reached for a
final vote on the resolution at four
o'clock Saturday.
Peace Status Necessary.
A status of peace must be OBJ
tanned lin some other way if
it cannot be secured by ratifica-
ton of the treaty and the League
sofa. one of the original mild reserva-
ton" Republicans in the treaty fight,
declared today in the senate support
ing the Republican peace resolution.
1T is OF the utmost Importance
he said. that a status of peace be
accomplished. Not only is it neces-
sary to the industries of this country
and its trade, but it is important that
the war powers of the president should
cease.
Originally Was Opposed.
when resolutions of this character
were originally introduced in the SEN
ate I was opposed to them. 1 wished
every opportunity given for the ratifi-
cation of the peace treaty. But the
president has made this impossible.
THE time has come when some
thing must be done. The nation, as
soon as possible, must be returned tC
normal conditions. I shall therefore
vote for the resolution declaring the
war at an end, which will restore oul
diplomatic, consular and commercial
relations with the central empires
because 1t seems to me the only pos
sible way now of accomplishing thi:
object. 1 have no doubt whatever o,
the constitutionality of the resolu
ton"
Constitution Allows 1t.
Senator Kellogg discussed prece
dents for the proposed action, con
Guiding that under the constitution
'the power to declare peace is a nat
ural and necessary implication in th
I absence of an express prohibition
against such a step by congress.
while congress cannot negotiate
| treaty, it can, in my judgment, end
state of war which it has created h
said, land this, if agreed to or ac
| quiesced in by the foreign countrie
! diplomatic relations may be restored
/ and a state of peace will exist withou
| the formal negotiations or ratification
of a treaty. 1t seems to me incom
| prehensible that IL the president hav
| ing no power to end war, should re
fuse to enter into a treaty that a stat
| of war must continue until the presi
| dent is disposed to enter into negotia
tions'
