PRESIDENT HANDED
R. R. CONTROL PLEA

Extension for two years OF govern
ment control of the railways was
urged at the White House yesterday
ty delegates from middle, western and
northern States. claiming TO represent
the American Federation of Labor, the
railroad brotherhoocs, shopcrafts, and
farmers. known as the triple alliance.
In letter signed by Samuel Comp
ers. president Of the American Fedora
ton Of labor. ard officials of the rail-
road shopcrafts. addressed to Presi-
dent Wilson, 1t is contended ''the
sentiment throughout the country is
in favor of this two years. extension
or government operation Of the roads. %
This is the second appeal made by
organized labor to have the President
extend Federal control On December
II, last, similar steps were taken which
resulted in The extension OF govern
ment control by the President to
March 1.
Frank Morrison. secretary of the
American Federation of Labor, denied
assertions of the Department of Jus
tice that the cost of living was com.
Ing down, citing January figures from
the Bureau OF Labor statistics to show
that prices rose in December and are
still rising. Mr. Morrison said that
the return OF the roads would cause
the cost OF living to rise further.
At the conclusion of the conference.
Secretary Tumalty told the delegates
the whole matter would be placed be-
fore the President st once.

OmeiaIs Not Alarmed.
Reports of an outbreak of the dis
ease at the Government Hospital for
the Insane helped to swell the total
of cases reported at the health de-
partment yesterday.
DR.. Fowler reiterated last night that
the epidemic has not alarmed officials.
He pointed out deaths were few in
comparison with the number of cases
reported. indicating that this cpl
demic has taken a mild form.
Apparently the peak of the epidemic
was reached several days aGo. but the
anticipated decline has not developed
as DIR. Fowler had hoped.
This is due. he declared, to the con-
tinued bad weather. which has
afflicted nearly everyone in the city
with colds. Persons with colds. he
explained, were more susceptible to
iRfiuenza than those in good health
While DR.. Fowler holds the opin-
ion that the epidemic will begin
shortly to die out, he admitted that
this prediction ght turn out wrong
in view of the inclement weather
Colds have also taken an epidemic
form here.
Every commercial house in the
city is laboring under a shortage OF
employees and clerks.
Approximately one-ffth of the
