WarsaW.-The Russian Soviet Gov
eminent has accepted the Polish pro-
poSal for transfer of the RuSso-POlish
peace negotiations from Minsll to Riga,
Letvia, it was announced in a Moscow
wireless message to the Polish Govern
ment. Definite indications reached
Warsaw that but little progress had
been made at the MinSk conference,
and that the Poles and Soviet repre-
Sentatives had agreed to a shift of the
negotiations in the hope Of lettering
conditions generally. A wireless mes
sage from Minsk, by way of Moscow,
to the Foreign Office complains fur
Their about the treatment suffered by
the Polish delegates.
The message asserts the commander
of the Western Soviet army placarded
Minsk with posters labelling the poles
as spies and warning the population
against assOciating with them.

Steps to Reduce Traffic Jam.

shington-Immediate use of a
part of the governments revolving
fund for the purchase of rail equip
ment, was suggested to the Interstate
Commerce commission by the Associa-
ton of Railway Executives to aid in
relieving the present accute freight
congestion. At the same time, the
Senate adopted a resolution by SEN
ator Reed, Missouri, calling upon the
commission for information as to what
steps it had taken toward breaking the
traffic jam.
Tie executives recommended that
$125 100000 be set aside for purchase
of equipment, especially cars to meet
the insistent demands Of freight. Each
road would be asked for. statement
of equipment needs and loans appor-
toned pro rata. The executives urged
the commission to act at its earliest
opportunity because of the car short
age.
Program Outlined.
The executives offered also the fol-
lowing program for disposition of the
remainder of the s300,000,000:
A temporary reserve for judgments
and claims against the Railroad admin
istration on the roads account, $40,-
100000.
Appropriation for the short line rail-
roads, $12,000,000.
A reserve to meet maturing obliga-
lions, s50,000,000.
Appropriation for additions and bet
terments which will promote the
movement Of cars. S73,000,000.
If maturing obligations of the vari-
Gus roads do not require full use of
the s50,00O,00O set aside for that pur-
pose, the remainder should be turned
into the fund for the purchase of
equipment, it was added.

These bankers are delightful

off BY thousands. Let them preach
TO textile workers in the east where
mills are shut down by one of the

men their story. Let them tell coal
miners TO work more when the rec

more than 100000 tons Of coal

Miners elsewhere are smashing

find the price Of coal prohibitive
