question not embraced in the gen.
eral outline furnished by the ac-
cepted program OF discussion could
we'll be added without the specific
agreement of the governments par
ticipating.
1t was again emphasized that the
conference is to be a meeting OF
equals and that it involves no vot-
ing or majority rule. All parties
must reach an agreement on any
step taken. it was said. and no del
egation can be bound against its
will on an, point. The whole pur-
pose, it was added. was to reach
by discussion such a mutual under
standing on any points taken up
that mutual agreement would
flow naturally from that under
standing. The form OF such agree
ments. when reached. must of ne
cessity be decided on by the con-
ference and before they can be-
come binding or be written into the
policy CT any of the participating
governments. they wo Id have to
be approved by such governments.
1t is this view of the mission and
method of the conference that inn
pels officials here to believe that
such Questions as oriental immigra-
ton will not be brought up. q

doubtedly being investigated
at Washington"
None of the board members
would indicate an optir.istic view
of the days proceedings. Some
members We're inclined to the view
that even issuance of strike order
was stantamount to a violation of
a board decision and that the
brotherhoods could properly be
cited to appear before the board
for a formal determination as to
whether its orders had been defied.
"The board feels it Is much
better informed on the situa-
tion and we hope some good
may yet result from the
boards inquiry" said one
member.
Labor Chiefs InfIexiblc.
Board members sTid that tho
labor chiefs remained infleXible in
maintaining that the fight was one
for the life of their organizations
Difficulties in the crisis were de-
clared hy the union men, it was
said. to be the fault of the carriers,
the brotherhood men holding that
many rail Dads had violated the
boards order, They made 1t clear.
however, members said. that they
did not consider these violations
the fault of the board, but due TO
the fact that the transportation act
"had no teeth"
Continual alleged violations of
the boards orders had convinced
the employees. they were quoted as
saying, that there would be no END
to encroachments on what the rail-
road workers consider their rights.
Prior statements of the brother
hood leaders have repeatedly as
serted that the question Of work
ing rules. which, they said, they
had been years in working UP, was
the crux of the situation Prac-
tically nothing was said in the con-
ference about the IL per cent wage
reduction, which was the technical
basis on which the strike was call
ed, it was learned.
Board Will Meet Today.
Members of the board said they
did not consider that the board had
exhausted its powers and that an
executive session would be held to-
morrow when further procedure
would be determined.

ULSTER, THE MOST DIFFICULT
PROBLEM FACING irish PEACE
CONFERENCE, COMES UP TODAY
Effort Is to Be Made to Induce the Northern

Autonomy, to Become Part of the State;
! Have Resisted All Appeals Thus Far.
tBY THE Associated PRESS, /,

tees with the British representa- :
tives, have been busy today with
their experts concluding their case.
The Sim f'ein has maintained its
determination not to agree to en-
ter the British commonwealth un-
less ireland is treated as a unit.
An effort, therefore, is to be made
from the governments side to in
duce Ulster to consider some
means by which while observing
its local autonomy, it may form a
part of the Irish state.
Ulsterites have resisted all ap-
peals thus far and the restlessness
In Belfast is attributed in high
quarters here to apprehension
that the rank and file of the Brit
ish representatives contemplate
sacrificing them to the desire for
an Irish settlement.
All information obtainable In
authoritative quarters. however,
points to strict adherence by Pre-
mier Lloyd George and his col
leagues to their Ulster pledges.
The opinion is expressed by many
persons that 1t will be possible to
construct some plan which, while
apparently leaving Ulster un-
touched. will give such advantages
to the south as to compel Ulster to
make terms with the south.
There are other persons to whom
the difficulties seem insuperable,
and many OF them prophesy a
speedy break in the negotiations on
this issue.

John Hays Hammond, Min
ing Engineer, Arrives at
Honolulu Suffering From
PtOmaine Poisoning.
(By The Associated PressJ

Honolulu, T. H., Oct. 19.-Joln
Hays Hammond. mining engineer,
arrived here on the steamer Golden
State today suffering from an at
tack of ptomaine poisoning con
tracted during three monthS
tour Of Japan. Mr.. Hammond
condition is not serious, although
he is confined to his stateroom.
He will continue his journey TO
the mainland tomorrow.
That the business men and fl
nanciers of Japan are sincere in
their expressed desire to maintain
peace in the Pacific, was the opin-
ion expressed by the American
mining expert. He pointed out az
an argument in support of this
conclusion that the United States
buys four times the amount II
goods from Japan, as is purchased
by the remainde: OF the world.
The military element in Japan
still must be considered" M
Hammond said, "but its adherents
are amenable to reason, especially
owing to the achievements of the
United States in the world war.
"My tour has impressed on me
