WASHINGTON, February a. = Republican
leaders have decided to force the issue on the peace
treaty and bring about final showdown without
farther delay.
Today Senator Lodge, the Republican floor
leader, and chairman of the Senate Committee on
Foreign Relations gave notice from his place in the
Senate that on Thursday he will call up the peace
treaty and insist that it remain before that body

conference had been made.
Senator Hitchcock declared also that the report

JACKSONVILLE, Florida, Feb
ruary 24.-Behind locked doors, to-
day. the heads of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, went into a ten
day executive session.
The secretary of the Federation,
who has had charge of arrangements,
has succeeded in surrounding the
meeting with an air of profound
secrecy; no one will lisp a wori
about probable topics for discussion,
or courses of action that may be
adopted.
Instructions have issued to permit
no interruptions in deliberations of
the conference.
Of course there is more or less
speculation with regard to all POS
sible or probable act On: but all "ut-
siders seem to believe that the rail
road problem will hold attention of
the conference the most of the time
in which the gathering will be in
session.

Solution Of
The Russian
Question Is
Looming Big
UNITED Press Service)

LONDON, February 24.-The first
definite steps toward settlement of
the Russian question, disclosed in
these dispatches yesterday, are re-
garded as the biggest of information
al problems undertaken for solution
by the Entente Allies.
The Council of Premiers, meeting
here, has decided to send into Russia
H4(der supervision of the League of
Nations, an official commission, to
study conditions; to encourage COM
merce between the Bolsheviki gov
ernment and the rest of Europe; to
discourage warfare between the Boil
sheviki and the border states, but to
aid the latter if attacked by Red
armies; and to withhold diplomatic
recognition of the Soviet government
"until convinced that Bolsheviki hor-
rors have ended"
In semi-official circles action of the
council is regarded generally as fore
casting in the future complete re-
eognition of Russia, economically and
politically, with consequent removal
of her alleged menace to the rest of
Europe, and restoration of her status
among nations. 1t is believed that
this would be accompanied by an in
Zit2fion to join the League of Ma
tions.

D E S | G N S

Yesterday "The Oasis" received the
following communication, from a re-
preventative of railway employees on
the Sonora and Cananea divisions of
the Southern Pacific of Mexico,
touching an article in a local paper
which had assailed them in an article
entitled "Bolshevikis." A similar
communication was sent LA Nacion"
for publication: 1t reads:
To "The Oosas:"
With surprise we have seen in a
newspaper published in Nogales,
Arizona, paragraph signalling as
shameful the decree of strike
among employees of the Southern
Pacific of Mexico.
For the present we will present to
the public and the press in general
that our organization is a group Of
law abiding workingmen, with
decent desire for defending our own
interests, and following the work we
are employed to do, which we have
found excessive for the remuneration
reviewed and the insufficiently re-
munerated when the excessive cost OF
all things we need is taken into cor-
, sideration; and we have asked for an
increase of 500 in pay, which will
no more than place us where we
were before.
Much do we regret that any pub
lication should apply to US an epithet
so opprobrious as "Bolsheviki,"
which we hold we have not merited.
We have simply taken our grievance
to General Superintendent Temple of
the Southern Pacific of Mexico, SUBJ
mitting to him pay schedules estab-
lished on other railways in Mexico,
showing that we are not so well paid.
and that the cost of living here is
greater.
Having received no response from
the competent authority in the Rail-
way Management, I'VE have appealed
to higher authority in our Union in
the City of Mexico, the President
General of the Union of Railway
Employees for adjustment of our
grievances, and asked that he exer-
else his influence and energy in our
behalf.
From him we have received the fol-
lowing telegram:
