The Presidents decision was not
announced at the White House. Of
ficials said it was decision contain
ing proposal. = From this it was as
sumcd that the President had refused
to grant general wage increases but
had made counter proposition to
the men. The railroad men agreed 20
consider the Presidents proposal
The Brotherhood men would not say
what the proposal was.
Timothy Shea, acting president Of
the Brotherhood Of Firemen and
Enginmen, said his organization
would make no statement today. The
White House was silent and in the
meantime there was no intimation
whether the President had offered a
substitute for an increase of wages in
the nature of continuation of the
fight on the high cost of living or
whether he asked the workers to de-
lay pressing their demands until the
railroads were returned to private
owners on March /.
B. J. Jewell, president of the rail
way department of the American
Federation of Labor announced the
Presidents proposal would have to be
"Put up to the men," before any an
nouncemcnt could be made.
Besides Mr.. Jewell and Mr. Shea,
E. J. Manion, president of the Order
of Railway Telegraphers was present
at the conference. The President met

NO QUARANTINE
TO Be PUT INTO
EFFECT HERE
DR.. Genge Puts Matter of
Checking Epidemic Up
to the People

Thursday night the doctors of ST.
Johnsbury were called together by
District Health Of3ccr, Victor P.
Genge for the purpose OF talking over
and finding out the best method OF
checking the epidemic Of so-called
grippe" which has now become
quite serious.
At this meeting all methods of
handling the epidemic were carefully
considered but it was decided that
owing to its type that strict quaran-
tine of the town was Lot advisable
end would not be efficient. The ma
iority of cases in this epidemic are so
mild that they do not have medical
attention-many Of them are about
town when they are coughing and
sncezing. THIS IS THE PERIOD
WHEN THE DISEASE IS MOST
READILY TRANSMITTED.
Therefore, less than so per cent
of the cases would be affected by
strict quarantine Of the individual at
the time when quarantine would be
most essential. The closing of all pub
lie meetings was considered only Il
half way measure which would do lit
tie good, inasmuch as so many mild
cases are up and about that the dis
ease would be spread unless every
thing, including all places of business
were closed. This would mean a
loss to the town out of all proportion
to the gain. 1t was decided however,
that the whole matter could be more
efficiently handled through the coon
Grafton OF the public-through max
ing every individual realize the dan
ger of the disease
The following facts are therefore
brought to the public's attention by
Dr. Genge:
o. The most contagious period of the
disease is in its early stage, from the
1st to the 3rd day.
You may have the disease in very
mild form but may transmit it in a
very virulent form.
If you are coughing or sneezing
you are indangering the health or
even life of all those with whom you
come in contact. 1t is your duty
therefore if you have "a slight cold'

ST. JOHNSBURY
BEATS NEPORT
In GREAT GAME
Company d Wins by Score
of q to % in Fastest
Game Seen in st. J.

The fastest game of basketball that
st. Johlsbury has seen in many a day
was played at the Armory Thursday
night when Company ID Of ST. Johns
bury defeated Company l. of New
port by the score of 27 to %. Over
500 people went wild with enthusi
asm at the excellent plays of both
teams. Il was nip and tuck contest
from sal't to finish. Both sides had
their strcaks of hard luck when shot
after shot was made at the basket and
the ball just missed rolling inside.
Then by spurts each side seemed to
have cast off the "hoodoo" and two or
three ba skets were scored in quick
succession.
The swiftness of the playing
brought some minor scuffles among
the players that for a few seconds
looked like bad blood between the
players but it was the very swiftness
of the game that made the players
lose their heads for a second. Then
there was an inevitable smile of good
sportsrlanship and cleaner fought
game For one so earnestly contested,
would have been difficult to find.
Company d won by superior team
work For brilliancy in individual
play the Mossa brothers and Kenni-
son showed bursts Of speed and ac-
curacy in shooting, that was some Of
the fines, work ever seen on the To-
cal floor. In team work the Newport
players did not cover their men eX
cept by spells and often when a sig
nal play was started the players were
not there to carry it out.
On the other hand Company ID
gave wonderful exhibition of passing.

Fisker and Foye, who were new in
the lineup played an excellent game.
Fisle was especially cool and effec-
tive. He was at the right place at
the righ time, played an excellent
team game and shot three difficult
baskets with fine accuracy. Morrison,

ual strong game. Ashton was all over
the floor and always could be depend

The better a local newspaper

Therefore when the business men
