NEW YORK STILL SNOWBOUND WITH
 NO RELIEF NEAR
Unprecedented Demoraliza- ton of Traffic-C0ndi- .tion of Streets Alarms
 Health Department
By Associated Pres,

New York, February 6.-New York still was stormbound late tonight and there was small prospect of relief. The city's great army of commuters started home through snow squalls blown up from the northwest by thirty mile gale and the weather bureau said the fall would continue for another twelve hours
 Generalization of transit lines of all kinds was almost unprecedented. Only the subways were maintaining regular schedules and every train in them was literally mobbed a. the rush hour.
 Surface cars had almost ceased to op- crate. Long lines of them were tied up in all parts of the city behind tangles of trucks. motor buses, draws automobile and taxicabs.
 So serious was the situation that Mayor Hylan issued a proclamation late today calling upon all persons en- gagged in the transportation business. except in the delivery of foodstuhfs. coal and milk, to cease work from tonight until Tuesday morning, turning their trucks and laboring forces over to the city 10 meet the storm emergency.
 NO STREET CLEANERS
 The street cleaning department ad mitted that it was virtually helpless because of it's inability to hire men From T5 cents to $1 an hour was of fered for snow shovelers. but only 5000 of the 14000 men needed could be re- cruited. Conditions in Fifth avenue and on the water front were worse than in any other section. On the aris- tocratic avenue the snow had been churned up by motor cars until if was of the consistency of dough. It rested on solid foundation of ice six inches thick
 Lacking trucks and men to remove the snow, all the department could do s was to keep blows moving to clear raths ir the middle of the streets which were filled Up almost as soon as they were opened.
 The department of health was frank ly alarmed because of the conditions in the streets Walking with dry feet i was almost impossible. and the removal of garbage could not be carried on systematically.
 SERIOUS FOOD PROBLEM
 The problem of distributing the city's 1 food supply also had become serious Milk trains arrived very irreguarls 1 today and trucks loaded with all kinds | of groceries and produce made theif rounds with the utmost difficulty
 Some relief was promised for the fuel ! shortage by an order directing the di- 1 version of coal for the public utilities | tCOBtinued on Page Two)

RACING STORMS GREATLY HAMPER
 RAIL OPERATION
Trains Run Late on Practi- cally Every Division. Coastwise Shipping
 Dem0ralized
By hssoclaiss Pres.

Washington, t'ebruary 6.-Severe storms, raging over practically the entire eastern half of the United States, have cut seriously into operation of the rail- roads. Director General Hines reported tonight. Trains were running late on nearly every division east of the Mis- sissippi river. coastwiss shipping, a necessary link in the railroad transporta- tion chain, was demoralized Traffic was completely tied up in some instances.
 These conditions, MT. Hines said, have been further complicated by the spread of influenza among railroad employees. The New York Central lines alonf report ed today more than-2.000 employees ill with the disease. Directors Hardin of the east ern region and Baldwin of the Allegheny region were numbered among the influ- erza victims

PLOUGH THROUGH SNOW

Maintenance of passenger schedules has been increasingly difficult trains being forcedsto reduce speed to avoid accidents and blow througr snowdrifts. Tracks have been washed away in many places and fater has cut off the west end of the West Jersey and Seashore railroad necessitating the use of stea mengines to draw electric cars
 Because of the gale which has swept Hampton Roads, coal dumping there has been negligible, Regional Director Maher reported
 Coal deliveries by water to other parts of the east were reported interrupted.
 Reports from the middle west indicate improvement in traffic movement, all though it is still admittedly slow Re- cent storms which covered the territory from the Canadian border as far south as Kansas and Colorado wrought havoc with the whole transportation system, but abatement of the storm has permitted maintenance and repair work to be re- sumed. Delayed trains however. tied up Hundreds of cars of freight. and the extra burden of moving, it was explained, de- lsyed shipments generally to some ex- tent.

WOULD MARROW DIFFERENCES

Acceptance of the bipartisan modf- flea ton by both republicans and dem- ocrats was considered as likely to narrow differences to the view of the prominent issues. Tn some quarters 1t was predicted that,agreement would be reached without much delay on all but two of the fourteen reservations proposed for incorporation in the rati- fication. These two relate to article ten and the Monroe doctrine. on which republican leaders assert their de- termination to accept no modification, while the democrats are equally eu1- phatic in their declaration that modl- fication will be necessary if the treaty is to be ratified.
 Despite this situation. however there are many senators on both sides of the chamber who predict that-some agree ment eventually will be reached. This view is not shared by the group of irreconciables opposing the treaty, who held numerous conferences during the day and will meet again tomorrow in their campaign to secure the defeat of ratification. It is expected that they will present some amendment to the treaty itself and will insist on debat- ing fully all the propositions put be- fore the Senate.

LOlg'S' RESERVAKs,S ID
 BE DEBATE BASIS
Definite Decision on Ac- ceptance By Democrats Will Be Reached at
 Today's Conference
By Associated Press

Washington, February s.-The modi- fled Lodge reservations, agreed on tentatively by the recently abandoned bipartisan committee. most likely will be the basis on which consideration of the peace treaty will be resumed next week in the Senate.
 Republican leaders, after series of conferences with their party coll leagues. today decided to take the mi tiative on the Senate floor in suggest ing adoption of the bipartisan com mittee's notifications of the Lodge reservations. Although it is expected under the decision that the original republican reservations will be at tached to the treaty when it is referred to the foreign relations committee. it is understood Senator Lodge, the re- publican leader, will present the modi- fled draft as substitute after the committed has reported.
 Definite decision as to whether the democrats would accept the reserva- tions with these notifications will not be reached it was said today, until tomorrow's conference of democratic friends of the treaty. and perhaps not then. The general opinion prevailed. however, that the charges worked out in the unofficial committee negotia- tions would prove satisfactory to majority of democratic senators.
