Find Half of Men Drawn on Fourth
 Tombstone Panel
Especial to The Review)

TOMBSTONE, Feb. g. - With the reporting of the sixth jury panel drawn since the beginning of the trial, the case of H. E. Wootton, charged with Kidnapping for alleged participa- tion in the I. w. w. deportations from the Warren D strict two and one-half years ago, will start on it's fourth week. Of the four hundred names drawn on the latest panel, it is expect ed, from reports brought in by deputy sheriffs, that less than 50 per cent will report.
 Four more talesmen must be passed before the hearing of evidence against Wootton will start. Of the 20 jurors now in the box, it Is expected that one, perhaps two, will be recalled for exam ination before finally passed or ex- cused. Unless examination of jurors is much more successful and rapid than it has been since the start. It will probably require the greater part of this week to secure the four more talesmen necessary.

 In His Bed

DENVER. Colo, Feb. 23.-Nursed by the wife of the man he killed, Charles T. Brown is under guard in his room at local hotel tonight seriously i'll of influenza.
 The killing came today when Ward Bell Rogers of Green River, Wyoming, entered the room where Brown and Mrs. Rogers admit they have been liv- ing for several months as man and wife. Rogers reached for his pistol It caught in his pocket and Brown drew a gun from beneath his pillow and shot,
 ''I am not sorry" Brown said to- night. T shot to defend myself and the little woman who has nursed and cared for me"
 After shooting Rogers three times in the heart, Brown calmly lay back on his bed and awaited the coming of officers. He was too i'll to be remov- ed to jail or to hospital and guard was placed over him by the police de- partment. An inquest over Rogers body will be heldt omorrow. Both Brown and Rogers are former service men and both are railroad brakemen.

of a reorganization bill, including a training plan is impossible. The flool leader is understood to have propos- cd that instead of attempting adop- tion of training plan, that the army bill merely provide a congressional commission on physical and mili- tary training" which would report to congress in December.
 Such an authorization, it was said. might bring the training plan before Ithe house as a separate proposition. MT. Kahn was understood to oppose discarding the advantage gained iri the military committee without an agreement that the universal training bill as a separate proposal would be given preferential status later
 The committee draft of the reor- gsnization bill does not include a de- claration of policy of universal train ing. After the committee decision to recommend adortion of the training, it was decided to refer the question to a subcommittee.
 The military committee will con tinue work on the army reorganiza- tion bill tomorrow and it is possible some decision on universal military training will be made then.
 The bill provides a standing peace army with a maximum strength Of 250.000 men, and 17,700 officers. This force would be a skeleton of nine divisions, capable of expansion in time of war, and beside including in fantry, cavalry and artillery, would provide personnel for the aviation. chemical warfare and tank corps.
 The national guard, under the house bill. would remain at it's pres ent strength of 500 meh to each con gressionaI district, but the measure would provide more leniently for or ganization of companies. Until July 1, 1921, the enlisted strength of g company for federal recognition would be fixed at 50 men and after that 65 Enlistment would be for one or three years.
 To obviate the situation arising at the end of the war when the dis charge of the state tTops from the army left the states without mill tia, the bill provides that under sim liar circumstances a discharge by the federal government leaves the guard subject to state call, unless decided to the contrary by state au- thoritiss.
 Aviation, under the bill, would be in charge of a major general with 1900 officers. ranking from second lieutenants to colonels, and 16,000 men, The tank corps would be made an infantry arm. and the chemical warfare service would be a separate corps, comprising 90 officers and 15.000 men.

DENY GRAFT IN
 NITRATE PLANT

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23- Charges of wholesale waste in construction of the Mussel Shoals nitrate plant were denied today by representative of the Air Nitrate corporation, the builders. before the house war expenditures commI-tee.
 J. L. Andrews of Sheffield, counsel for the corporation, subsidiary of the American Cyanimid company, declared there had been no reckless waste or extravaganza, that the plant was built on hurry-up orders and that while most labor was inefficient, the corpor- ation had made every effort to expe- dite construction without unnecessary tax on the government Cost of mate rial, labor and freight was much hea- vier than the contractors had counted on, he said, and this ran the total about $9,000,000 above estimates. He denied charges of brutality by police and company guards.
 Mr. Andrews declared that the cor poration lost money. explain ng that the company received $1,500, ,000 from the government for its work, but that much of the expenses of the corpora tion had not been paid and that after

Palmer Says Political Play Prevents Lowering of
 Food Prices

TOPEKA, Kans., Feb. 23-The cam paign against the high cost of living has not been successful and although no general lower level of prices to the consumers has been reached, there had been a tendency in many lines toward such a level. Attorney General A. Palmer Mitchell declared in an address before the Kansas Dem- ocratic club tonight.
 That more pronounced results have not been realized in coping with the living cost problem and many others confronting the country as a result of the war, MT. Palmer attributed tS what he considered a lack of coopera- tion between the legislative and exec utive branches of the government.
 'It cen no longer he denied" he said, that the executive branch of the government has been handicapped by barren and hostile congress. Not only has it refused to support the president but it has failed to produce any plans of its own"
 He cited recommendation of Pres ident Wilson concerning living costs and taxes and declared all of them had been ignored.
 "ln view of this abdication of all responsibility by the congress, be- cause dominated by a political party hostile to the worker, the wonder is not that we have done so little. but that we have accomplished so much, he said

None of the leaders would deny that omission of d training plan was like. ly, but asserted no final agreement had been made with advocates of training. .
 Despite the decision of the mili- tary committee adopting universal training in principle. as part of the country's military policy, efforts were made today to prevent the com mittee decision from appearing in the reorganization bill. Chairman Kahn, who held informal conferences with the leaders and supporters of the training,- said no decision had been reached, and Representative MolI- dell, Republican floor leader, de clined to discuss the movement fur ther than to assert the army bill was slated to come before the house Thursday.

Meeting of 5000 Delegates Discusses Affiliation
 With A. F. L.

CLEVELAND, Feb. g. - Participa- ton of teachers in school management and utilization of teachers organiza- tions with the American Federation of Labor were discussed at tonights ses- sion of the council of education, meet ing in conjunction with the convention of the National Education association, which drew approximately 5000 dele gates to this city.
 c. B. Stillman, president of the Am erican Federation of Teachers, declar- ed teachers must federate and affiliate with labor if they were to procure rec ognition of their rights
 Dr. G. D. Strayer of Columbia Uni yersity opposed utilization, but favored greater participation of class room teachers in school government and more solidly united teachers profess ional organization.
 Six speakers carried the protest Of hundreds of thousands of American teachers against a school system which they charge is stifling their op- portunity and individuality.
 The speeches did not agree on the remedies, but all contended that the teacher must shortly be made a decid- ing factor in school administration ln- stead of hired man or hired wom- an," as one speaker phrased 1t, given orders to fulfill.
 The teacher-and consequently the pupils the victim of democracy, or system in vogue in the public schools. it was argued. She has nothing to say as to what she. shall teach.
 MT. Stillman denounced the Ameri- can school system as Prussianly auto cratic" He advocated election of teachers nominated by teachers to places of control equivalent to boards of education.

RAILROAD MEN BALK
 AT WAGE SETTLEMENT
 AND THREATEN STRIKE
Union Leaders in Conference Presidents Plan Are Dis satisfied with Situation and Talk Openly of Walkout That Will Tie Up Entire Traffic of the Nation
 If Demands Are Not Granted

WASHINGTON, Feb. D. Railroad labor is not satisfied with the way things are going over its wage de. mands. This was indicated in con. ference today of union officials and general committeeman. called to pass ont he presidents settlement pro- posa' Passage of the railroad bill hv tho senate tonight only added mora bitterness to talk of the union workers.
 Arrival of committee chairman --- Union leaders closest to the rank and file brought out strike tall. Hi0hnr officers were inclined to ris- count this evidence of the workere' feeling. but hotel lohbies buzzed with possibilities of the situation. There were indications that the union heads who have dealt with Director General Hines were worried lest all they accomDlished might be wreck ed. Committee chairmen spoke frankly of the sentiment in the local groups, describing it thus:
 Their temper is not such as to warrant us being optimistic"
 Union spokesmen believed there was no way to avoid a direct appeal to the president to veto the Cum measure. They declared it must be done to satisfy the work CTS who have not had "cIose up" or the situation. But as to hope that the legislatiG-' might yet be blocked, there was little expression. Labor's apneal to congress. having been re- buffed, some leaders were said to have assumed the attitude that the legislators were trying to see how far they ccn go by nagging us."
 Heated discussion marked all con- ferences of the 15 organizations which met separately. None was able to finish examination Of the documents transmitted between u,l- ion officials, the director general and the White House, as delegates continued to insist on assailing ''the with which congress and the government has dealt with us"
 The presidents proposal is by no means sure ot acceptance by the ull- ions. It drew attack from various aneleS according to information which leaked out of the secret meet ings.
 The gist of the strike talk, as ex- pressed by several union officials, was that the railroad organizations have reasons to assert their strength a walkout, but 1t was deem ed inadvisable by them. at least, to carry out such a program. One leader declared that the action of
