DIRECT APPEAL ID
 | WHITE HOUSE ONLY STRIKE SOLUTION
Hundreds of Thousands of Dollars Worth Perishable F0odstuffs In Danger
 of ROtting on Piers
By Associated Press

New York, March 23.--The only so- iution of the strike of 5000 longshore- men engaged in coastwise traffic is "a direct appeal to the White House , R. M. Squires, of the national wage adjustment commission, announced to- night. The announcement followed re- ceipt of telegrams from the Charles ten, $. C.. Chamber of Commerce and from planters and farmers In other southern districts demanding informa- tion of steps taken to settle the strike hy arbitration.
 ThMext of the telegrams were not disclosed, but Mir Squires said they urged that an appeal be made to Pres ieent Wilson unless there was indica- ton of speedy adjustment of the sit- uation by the wage commission.
 Planters in the districts about 'Cherleston, Hampton Roads, Jackson vile, Fla, and New Orleans. have hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of perishable foodstuffs on sea- board and inland piers awaiting ship nent to New York according to the telegrams. Further delay of these shipments. they said would cause a very serious situation.
 These foodstuffs represent tho years work of the farmers and the springs supply for a number of sea- board and inland cities, MT. Squres said. and producers and consumers must depend upon coastwise steam- ships to move them.

HELD OPPOSITE VIEWS

General Bliss said he told the supremf war council that such thing as perma nent amalgamation of American unit with the British or French would be "in to American sentiment, whiel led the presiding officer, M. Clemenceau to declare that this point was settled, and nothing was heard thereafter on thc subject.
 In General Pershihgs original orders a commander-n-c chief of the American ex peditionary forces, it was specifically pro vlded that American troops were to ops crate as individual units.
 Rear Admiral Sims statement Mondas concerning General Bliss alleged recon mendation, was made in discussion by tn, admiral of the most effective manner h which the United States forces abroat could have aided the allied cause. Sen ator Pttman, democrat, Nevada. reaot, from an unsigned letter found in sAa miral Sims file urging that Amerfc;t, troops passing through Great Britain D brigaded with the British forces Fl called The document British propa. ganda," and said it was part of al organized effort to prevent the formation of a separate American army. Admiral Sims replied that while he had not writ ten the letter, he objected to having it called propaganda and said it was pretty good military reasoning and what Bliss recommended"
 General Bliss said that all British 1nili- tary and political men during his visit to London with the House mission, urged the sending of complete American divi- sons for the purpose of having in Europe an Americans army. He said he informed them that this country hoped to have in France twelve complete divisions by Juns l. 1918. and was told that that effort must be doubled, French military men later making the same demand.
 IDEA IS ABSURD
 '"rhe idea of brigading complete di- visions with other groups is an absurd- ity." General Bliss wrote. During the battle our divisions were at times used to meet an emergency Tn connection with either British or French divisions but in the same way French divisions wers used with our troops. At no time during the American mission's visit 10 Europe did l hear even the suggestion that our troops should be brigaded, either in large or small bodies. with foreign troops
 Nor did l ever make such a sugges- tion, much less a recommendation.
 The first suggestion as to the tenn porary use of any American troops with those of our allies was made at the tima when they apprehended the near ap-
 Tn the very crisis of the battle, the military representatives recommended that the American government send to Europe American infantry with machins gun units: that the use. in principle, of those units with allied troops be permit- ted. Before acting on it. I took this recommendation to you and General Per- shing at the latter's house, where you dictated to the President an approval of the recommendation. based upon ths present emergency but making it per fectly clear that the training and uss of these troops was to be in the discre- tion of the American commander-in- chief

STATE COMMISSIONS BOLDLY AGAINST VALUATION PLANS.
AssaiI Carriers Plea That Book Accounts Be Used As An Index to Val
 uatiOn
a, Associated Pres.

Washington, March 23.-Solid alignment of state railroad commissioners, repre- sentng the public. against consideration of the unreliable, investment accounts Of the roads for valuation purposes devei- oped today before the interstate com merce commission. which is holding hearings to determine the basis for pay ment of the standard dividend under the transportation act.
 Insisting that the book accounts or the railroads were worthless as an index to the values of the properties. John E. Benton, of the Association of State Rail- road Commissioners, sharply criticized the argument advanced by the carriers that any valuation of the roads found to be less than the aggregate accounts would be blow to the financial centers of the world.
 Since when has the commission rem dered it's Judgments with it's face toward Wall street." he asked. since when has it disregarded the law and the facrs to cover up the rottenness of any sltua- tion it came upon in the performance of it's dutye It has heretofore discovered and exposed many shocking things, but the country still lives and the financial centers are still intact.''

 S2OO,OO0,OOO MORE. A YEAR FOR COAL.
Price Control Ends April 1, When Miners Will Get 27 Per Cent Increase,
 Borne By Public
By Assooiated Press

Washington. March 2S.-With @ warning against profiteeriug, Presi- dent Wilson today ordered abandon ment of government control over bi- tumious coal prices and asked miners and operators to negotiate a new work ing agreement on the basis of the ma jority report of the coal strike settle ment commission.
 The President ordered termination of price control on April 1 when the new working agreement becomes effec- tive. This will permit at least partial absorption in coal prices of the in- crease in miners wages, established at 27 per cent by the commissions ma jority report.
 The increase in wages, the com
 mission estimated. will entail an
 added annual cost of $20O.0OO,OOO
 and includes the 14 per cent i'm
 crease awarded the miners in set
 ting the recent strike.
 The operators. however, were re- minded by the President that unrea- sonable prices must not result from the rellnquishment of price control and the addition of increased wages to their eXpenses.

A committee was appointed at the meeting of the Jefferson county unit of the American Cotton association at the court house yesterday after noon to confer with the directors of the Jefferson-Lincoln Cotton Growers association, asking that their classer, G. c.

The committee is composed of E. W. Phillips, Judge c. M. Philpot and W. 70. Hudson, with H. E. Trulock as ex-officio member.
