London-The refusal Of the Russian
Soviet government to cease war
against Poland at the behest OF Great
Britain, is contained in Moscow wire
less dispatch received here. The re-
fusal also constitutes an appeal to
the workers and peasants Of Soviet
Russia and the Ukraine. 1t is signed
by Premier Lenine, Minister of War

and says: The British Government
addressed a proposal to us July IL, to
cease war against Poland, and begin
peace negotiations with Poland and
other border states. promising that
the Polish troops, in case of an arm
istice being concluded, would retreat
to a frontier marked last year by the
peace conference.
''If the Polish people," the commu-
nication declares, desires to receive
an honest peace and an honest from,
tier, and find in the person of Russia
a brotherly neighbor, 1t is necessary
that the Polish people itself should
seek it."
Poland has been told to apply to
the Russian Soviet government for an
armistice in order to test the SINGER

Russia is willing to make peace with

vlsement by the Commission
Who Promised Re-
lief Soon.

Washington, d. C.-New emergency
orders directing priority in the move
ment of coal to the Atlantic seaboard
for trans-shipment to New England
to meet the fuel situation there were
asked of the Interstate Commerce
Commission by coal operators, deal
ers and railroad executives.
The order, it was proposed, would
require a half score of railroads tap
ping coal fields in West Virginia.
Maryland and Central Pennsylvania
to give the right of way to the move
ment through Hampton Roads, Balti-
more, Philadelphia and New York.
The request was taken under ad-
visement by the commission. which
Informed the coal and rail men that
some order would be issued at once.
The order, in effect, would be similar
to that issued for coaling the North
west, but would apply to different
mines and railroads.
The President still may employ his
war powers in remedying menacing
conditions, and it was indicated these
powers might be called into use in
laying a ban on export, should the
priority orders of the Interstate Com
merce Commission fail to bring salts
factory results.

Two Million Employees Benefit
BY United States Railway
Labor Board Award
is RETROACTIVE TO MAY I
Increase Granted Amounts To, Ap-
proximately, 2t Per Cent of Pres.
ent Rate of Pay and 60 Per
Cent of Demands. N

Chicago-Six hundred million dol.
lars was added to the pay envelope OF
the nations 100000 railroad work
ers in the first award handed down by
the new United States railway labor
board.
Rejecting the demands of the organ
lied rail unions for increases totaline.
approximately, S100, 100000, the board
decided approximately, 60 per cent OF
that sum would be just increase to
meet present living conditions.
The award adds. approximately, q
per cent to the present pay schedules.
Railroad officials have declared that
any pay increase awarded the men
must be followed by a corresponding
increase in rates, and they plan, 1t IS
said, to file new tariffs with the Into
state Commerce Commission as sod
as they can be prepared.
Whether the award as given viii.
stave off the threat OF a general rail-
road strike remains to be seen. The
leaders of practically every one of the
16 big railroad unions were presenr
when Judge r. M Barton, chairman
of the board, handed down the de-
cision. They left Immediately to pre-
sent the award to 1000 general chair
men who had gathered here to pass on
its acceptability.
The boards decision is retroactive
to May l. AS the maximum increase
granted any class was Is cents an

back pay check due when the settle
ment is made, August l, will be
$3.50. The board provides that the
back pay checks shall be made our
separately. so that each man will
know the amount he receives from
that source.
Seven things were taken into con-
sideration in arriving at the award,
the preamble Of the boards announce
ment says They were: The scale
paid for similar kinds Of work in other
industries; the relation between wages
and the cost of living; the hazards OF
the employment; training and skill re-
quired; degree of responsibility; char
acter and regularity of the employ.
ment, and the inequalities in increases
and treatment resulting from previous
wage orders.
