SAY CONTRACTS CANCELLED
German Firm Declares Brooklyn Con-
Germ voided Contract Upon War
TechnicaIitics.

Berlin.-Action to establish through
diplomatic channels whether Amer
lean firms can take advantage of the
technical state Of war existing be-
tween the United States and Germany
end cancel contracts with German
firms may be taken by the German
chamber OF commerce.
The issue has arisen in connection
with deal between a Brooklyn firm
and a Berlin manufacturing concern
involving the delivery of German
products valued at four million
marks. The American firm definitely
closed a contract with the local COM
pany on April %, but, ii is charged,
the subsequent rise in the market in
duced it TO find the purchase price
cisadvantageous and it annulled the
contract on the ground that it was in
violation of law.

PEACE PLAN MEETS VETO
President Wilson Declares Resolution
Would Be Stain Upon Honor
of Nation.

Westinghouse Wilson We
toed the peace resolution and in.
formed congress he could not become
party to the peace program framed
by republican leaders in the senate
and house because he considered it
would put IAN ineffaceabIe stain" on
the nations honor.
To establish technical peace by such
2 method, the president said in his
veto message, would be TO effect a
surrender of the rights OF
the United States so far as Germany
is concerned and to relinquish all
the high purposes which led the nation
into war and which were embodied
in the rejected treaty Of Versailles.

WILL SAVE PLANT
At MUSCLE SHOALS
AMENDMENT PROVIDING FOR DIS
MANTLING OF GREAT PLANT
HAS BEEN WITHDRAWN.
WILL BENEFIT THE FARMERS
Senator Reed Smoot Finally Agrees to
Abandon Plan Which Would Have
Caused Operations To Cease.
Work to Continue.

Washingtol.-A provision in the
Notifications appropriation bill which
would have stopped further develop
ment OF the government nitrogen plant
/ at Muscle Shoals, and would have pre-
| vented production of nitrate which
may be used to manufacture fertilizer
| for agricultural purposes. was so Wig
orously attacked in the senate that il
was withdrawn by Senator Smoot, of
Utah.
Senator Oscar w. Underwood, Dem
ocratic leader, drew from Senator
Smoot the admission that the appro-
priations committee had not fully in
vestigated the operation of the plant,
and that the majority members of the
senate committee acted largely on the
suggestion of the chairman of one
of the house Investigating" commit
tees, who had objected TO the Muscle
Shoals project. Following Senator
Underwood's explanation of the need
of a nitrogen plant, and the effect its
operation would have upon the coun-
try's agriculture, the Alabama senator
said he would demand a roll call on
the Smoot proposal. Later Senator
Smoot withdrew the provision alto
gether. This provision read:
THAT unless specifically authorized
by law, no contract shall be entered
into or obligation incurred or addi-
tional work undertaken at or on &C
count of United States nitrate plants
No. 1 and No. 2, situated at or in the
vicinity of Muscle Shoals, Ala, ex-
cept for purely maintenance pur-
poses"
There is pending bill before the
senate agriculture committee for the
operation of the plant by a corpora
ton in which the government viii
own all the stock.
During the debate with Senator
Smoot Senator Underwood showed |
that the farmers of the country viii |
receive inestimable benefit from such /
operation.
So far. Senator Underwood showed, |
this country and its farmers have been
almost entirely dependent upon nj /
trate supplies from Chile.
Discussing the moot proposal, Sena- I
tor Underwood said:
THE proposals now pending before T
the agricultural committee. which l /
hope will be reported to the senate. /
is to establish a government corpora
ton. every share of the stock of which
will be owned by the United States
government, for the purpose OF carry

purposes.

no necessity to operate this plant any

Vestigation by the ordnance depart
nent of the war department. they

which is now before the agricultural
committee of the senate. that it will
Re cheaper to use this plant now for

.R. R. CONDITIONS ARE
 TOLD IN STATEMENT
 BY DIRECTOR HINES

Assuring the shippers of the United States that until the end of the period of federal operation the railroads of the country will endeavor to give them all the advantages of unified control. Walker b. Hines. director general of railroads has issued a pamphlet in which interesting information concern ing the rail industry in the last two years is made public.
 For the week ending January 3. 1920, the number of cars of revenue freight loaded show an increase of 162,22S cars over the same week in 1919 and one of 216269 cars over the same week of 1918, according to the report.
 The railway administration has not been able to get hold of needed equip ment and is not now in a position to get all the equipment which is neces- sary to perfect operation of the roads, according to the report. Such equip ment. the report adds is chargeable to capital account and must therefore be paid for by the railroad companies.
 The railroad problem has been in tensified by the falling off in loading per car from 1918, when, under war pressure, a very high record was at taineG This rate of loading fell from 292 tons in the first II months of 1918 to PTS tons for the same period of 1a19 or a decrease of 4.S9 per cent, which represents a loss of 105.000 cars ay ailable for loading. This falling off has occurred. according to the report rendered by Mir Hines. in spite of con- tinued efforts of the administration and the cooperation of the shippers.

Preliminary steps to the formation of a woman's auxiliary of the Ameri- can legion will be made at the meet ing of that organization to be held in the club rooms next Wednesday eve ming at 7:30 o'clock. The meeting is expected to be the last which will be held in the present quarters. above Goldberg's store.
 Authorization of the woman's auXil iary was made by delegates to the ma = tional convention of the American le- zion held last November in Minne- apolis and some time ago the state organization issued circulars to the posts of the state advocating the adop- tion of such a course in all the towns and cities of Arizona where posts of the legion are located. Phoenix women aligible to the auxiliary have already discussed the formation of an or ganization. and it is expected that this will take place as soon as the move is officially sanctioned by the legion men.
