RAILROAD UNIONS
 TO FIGHT NEW BILL
Plan to Combat Measure in Con-
 SresS Being Worked Out

Washington. Feb. 2o-Union labor led by the officers of the American Federation of Labor and the railroad q brotherhoods today had well under way it's fight in congress against the adoption of the re-drafted railroad q reorganization bill Besides the me- 1norial prepared by representatives of IS railroad unions and federation officers at an all day conference yes terday and which was addressed to congress as a whole, individual con- gressmen were deluged today by let ters and telegrams from union leaders generally protesting against enact ment of the bill into law
 The plans of the union it was shown provide first for determined fight in the house and senate. If defeated there the controversy will be taken direct to the president, in hope of q veto. The opposition of the unions as shown in the memorial declaring the redrafted bill to be destructive of the employees constitutional privileges and liberties, is based chiefly on the method proposed for handling wage and labor disputes.
 The provision for a fixed financial return to holders of railroad secu- rites also is attacked, the memorial holding that the provisions would constitute ''an abandonment of gov ernment for the common good, the establishment of government for pri- vate interest. special privileges and class benefit
 Principal objection to the labor ar bitration clause is based on the man her in which the special arbitration boards would be constituted and the manner of their operation. Union leaders contend that the boards in cluding the permanent federal board of nine members, might be so com posed as to eliminate labor from rep resentation. The method proposed of adjusting labor disputes by groups of not less than 100 employees, the leaders declared, would destroy all discipline and lead to chaos," because they would encourage the workers to disregard existing agreements and long established orderly methods of procedure.
 The union officials, as set forth in the memorial see in the bill a deter imitation to annul existing agreem ents and destroy the organizations which their opposition to the provision that would make ineligible for appoint ment to the labor board any person connected with an organization of em- ployes The provision they point out, would result in forcing men, long trained in union labor work to relin- ouish associations of many years to accept such a position"

PRESIDENT GIVES
 ALPHA AND OMEGA
His Note to Allies So Definite That There Can Be No Further
 Argument on Matter.

Washington, Feb. 20. (By The As- sociated Press)-The position of the American government on the Adriatic settlement has been made so plain in President Wilson's reply to the allied note that administra ton officials be- lieve the way to further argument on the subject virtually has been closed.
 It was said today, however, that by this they do not mean that the door to further exchanges has been shut. On the contrary, reply to the presi- dents latest comm munication is antic.- pated and a final agreement between the great powers on the question expected
 The president, throughout the ex- changes now in progress is under stood to have made it perfectly clear that the United States cannot accept the settlement reached by the allied premiers and concurred in by Italy and which was made the subject mat ter of the ultimatum to Jugo- via last month. He also is said to have made it equally clear that enforce ment of the Adriatic terms of the secret treaty of London. negotiated before this country entered the war, would be wholly unacceptable to the United States
 The presidents note still is in the hands of Acting-Secretarv Polk, to whom it was sent yesterday for study, and it was said at the State depar ment that it would not be dispatched today. It probably will be put on the ca b1es tomorrow.
 It was officially stated that the question of giving publicity to the ex- changes would await the delivery of the presidents note and the acquies- cence of the other governments

EXCHANGES ARE BETTER
London Banking Interests Encour- aged-Rates Higher Than At Any Time Since February i.

New York, Feb. 2o-Exchange on London and the principal continental European centers was at highest lev els today since the low record of Feb ruary when demand bills on London sold down to $3.19. Today's early rates for the same bills on London was $3.47 IA. Francs opened at an overnight advance of 80 centimes to 1897 to the dollar and lire 26 cen times to 17.62. Remittances to Belgi- um and the Scandinavian centers also strengthened.
 Dealers in exchange ascribed the further recovery of foreign remit tances to a partial readjustment of conditions and a moderate demand for bills, especially on London and Paris.

VISCOUNT GREY TALKS TO RHODES SCHOLARS
Believes Association At School May Help Countries to Find Points

London. Feb. 20.-Viscount Grey of Falloden told the American Rhodes scholars who crossed the ocean as fellow passengers with him on the Adriatic on his return from his post as ambassador to Washington that he hoped in time British scholars would go to American and Canadian universities as they were going to OK ford
 "I believe the more association of this kind there is the more the coun- tries will find points of agreement with each other," he declared

You will meet at Oxford some of those who are go- ing to do the same for Great Britain. If you form some such friendships with British undergraduates and they with you, they will do something to help the countries on each side of the Atlantic to understand each other, to keep in touch and to like each other. It was the idea of Cecil Rhodes that they should work to- gether. This he believed to be for world Many of us think that is true and believe that the thing most nec- essary is for the leading minds of each country to become acquainted with those of the others.~

Professor George D. Strayer of the Teachers college at Columbia univer- sity. addressed the members of the New Britain Teachers club on the subject of modern teaching and how to improve it. Tn the course of his address, Professor Strayer declared that one of the most glaring faults with the modern method is that the pupils are given too much book in struction. In other words, the speak CT said, the pupil learns the lesson, parrot fashion, as it is printed, and does not learn to think for himself. Thus, initiative of thought and action are not developed as it should be.
