war and we want to end that inter- ference. We want a free America again. We want America free at home and free in the world. We want to silence the outcry of nation against nation, in the fulless of un- derstanding, and we wish to silence the cry of class against class and stifie the party appeal to class so that we may insure tranquility in pur freedom.
 Many advocates of pacificism think our safeguards against war are not enough. that there should be a referendum to the people before the war. The other extreme is found among, those who seriously propose that a council of foreign powers shall summon the sons of this republic 10 war anywhere in the world. I emphatically agree that no authority other than congress may call our boys to battle. Accepting this truth why make a covenant which violates the good faith of nations?
 Picks On Article.
 Suppose that under the military alliance and the super-authority of Article x a program of armed force is agreed upon and the congress of the United States declines to respond. The executive would be called upon to carry on a war without constitu- tional authority or we should prove our compact no more than a scrap of paper. We are on the side of both safety and honor to hold for ourselves the decision of our obliga- tion to the world. We have ever played a becoming part in human progress, we will not fail to play it in that freedom Of conscience and ac- ton which befits a confident republic Men prate about violated obligations to the nations of the earth The solemn truth is that our part in the world war was an obligation to our- selves, performed in sympathy with associated, not allied powers. and our splendid part in helping to win the war was the armed manifestation of American conscience not the fulfill ment of written obligation.

EACH SIDE ASKED NAME SIX MEN ON
 TR|PART|TE BOARD
President to Choose Board of Nine From Men Sug- gested With Three. Pub
 lie Representatives
By Associated Pses,

Washington. March S.-The sixteen railroad unions and the Association of Railway Executives were directed to- night by the interstate commerce com mission to make nominations for labor and capital, respectively. to the tripartite board created by the transportation act. which will attempt settlement of disputes without strikes.
 Each side will name not less than AK men, to be submitted to President Will son, who will choose tle board of nine, divided equally between the public, the workers and the corporations.
 In promulgating the regulations to gov ern the naming of the delegates, the commission said the unions had been chosen to represent labor because the overwhelming majority, more than 9o per cent, of the railroad workers were included in their membership and the unions had been recognized as authorized to speak for the several classes of em- ployes. Similarly. the Association of Railway Executives was asked to nom- mate representatives of the railroad arrangements and owners, because ap- proximately 95 per cent of railroad mile age was included in the association. Most of the carriers not included in the as- sociation have assented to the presenta- tion of nominations by the organization.
 THREE GROUPS For the purpose of making the nom- nations, the unions were classified into three groups:
 Group 1-Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, Brotherhood of Locomotive Bremen and Enginemen, Order of Rail- way Conductors. Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, and the Switchmen's Union of North America.
 Group 2-International Association ol Machinists, Brotherhood of BoilermakeTs Iron Shipbuilders and Helpers, Brother l hood of Blacksmiths and Helpers, Shec' Metal Workers, Brotherhood of Railway Carmen. and the Brotherhood of Elec. l trical Workers.
 i Group S--Order of Railroad Telegraph I CTS, Brotherhood of Maintenance ol Way Employees and Shop Laborers, Raii
 way Signalmen, Brotherhood of Station lary. Bremen and Oilers, and Brotherhood jef Railway Clerks, Freight Handlers ant Express and Station Einployes.
 1 Each group must name at least tw' members. The commission explained l had aligned the sixteen organizations s that each group represented empioye doing labor of a more or less siiniia lcharacter and ''as nearly as possibl representative of and conversant w7t the interests of all of the classes erl braced in the subdivisions
 Because of question of interpreta ton. the commission decided to withhol l for the present provision for nominat ling "subordinate officials of the road; who may be included among labor's rer Iresentation. It was said there was un certainty as to just who constitute sur \ ordinate officials and until the term ldefined, there would he danger of ar
