shadow beyond the Irish sea- .

A program of legislation calculated

from Canada that export OF pulp

ed today for the, big break in the

would be produced by Attorney Cen
cral Palmer's announcement that
strike leadership had been traded to
radical quarters. Mr.. Palmer's state.
ment that William q. Foster, radical
leader Of !. the unsuccessful steel
strike last fall, was the guiding
genius in the strike, and that its OBJ
jectI in reality was the formation of
one big union," which expected to
influence many OF the less radical
strikers to return.
Hope that the Palmer statement
would break the back bf the strike,
however. did not deter railroad Off
cials from bending effort to speed
the process by operating their lines
with volunteers and loyal employees.
Conditions in. the central and far
west were declared to be returning
steadily toward normal and marked
ger service were reported In the east.
The first sign of willingness on
the part of eastern strikers to nego-
tiate came last night. when Edward
Ntzhugh,, chairman OF the strike
committee, sent a message to the rail-
road labor board stating that the
men would welcome an opportunity

SCOUTS sTEADYINe INFLUENCE

Maj Gen. Littleton W. T. Waller of
the United States marines has watched
the Boy Scouts at work and this is
what he has to say of them:
IF lad lives up to the scout oath
he must of .,ecesslty become good
citizen, making his mark In lis gen.
Grafton.
"The record of the graduates from
the scouts 20 the military service has
been excellent, record to thrill the
scouts with pride.
1.-THE Boy Scouts of America have
done splendid work in the efforts to
keep up men at the front In good
shape. In all the drives for Liberty
loans their work has been increasingly
valuable. The instruction received by
the lads spells preparedness for good
citizenship and for the living of clean,
upright. moral lives.
81 am strongly in favor of the move
ment. especially at this period of I'M
rest and uncertainty, when vicious
propaganda is doing much to under
mine the content and happiness of our
people. I hope the movement may
wax stronger and stronger year by
year"
