PEACE TO COME
IN SHORT ORDER
OFFICIAL DOCUMENT BEING
PREPARED FOR PRESIDENT.
BELIEVED ANOTHER TREATY
MAY BE WORKED OUT FOR
COMMERCIAL PURPOSES.

Washington, Oct. 22.-Formal res
toration of peace between the United
States and Germany awaits the ex-
change in Berlin of the ratification
papers and will occur some days from
now. The official evidence that the
treaty has been made, signed by Pres
ident Harding, for deposit in Ger
man archives is in course of prepara-
ton and will be forwarded as soon as
completed.
Reestablishment of diplomatic rela-
tions and the working out of a sup
elemental commercial treaty will fol-
low the exchange of ratifcations. 1t
was indicated today that the treaty
approved by the senate contained
about all commercial provisions it
has occurred to American authorities
as desirable to provide for, reserva-
tion of American rights under the
treaty of Versailles being viewed as
accomplishing this result.
There are certain reciprocal agree
ments as to German interests in the
United States, however, which the
German government is anxious to
have written into a commercial pact,
and it is expected that this will be
taken up through regular diplomatic
channels and at German initiatives
when the peace treaty notifications
have been exchanged and diplomatic
machinery set.
No indication was available today
as to when it might be decided to
withdraw American forces on the
Rhine or to reduce the strength of
the command. There are now some
$4,000 men in Major General Aliens
command and while every suggestion
that American troops might be re.
called has met with opposition up to
this time from the French and Brit
ish and from Germany itself, it may
be found possible later to reduce the
force.
1t has been generally recognized
that the size of the American force
had little to do with considerations
that prompted the desire that it re.
main on the Rhine, the thing sought
being to keep the American flag fly
;ng there for such effect as it might
have in tranquilizing the situation
and also because General Allen has
acted fssquently in the past as arbi-
ter of questions in dispute between
the allies and Germany.
If any event it is regarded as i'm
probable that the American force will
be withdrawn as a unit. No plans fol
mobilization of transports for the
komeward journey have been consid'
cred by the war department.

GETS DRUNK, FINED.

John Savage responded too freely
Saturday night to the effects of home
brew, and his breath made too much
noise in the community. Consequent
ly he was hooked by the men with
blue coats and shiny badges and
brought before the man with the
crooked pipe, where he was fined
$3.50.

HARDING ADVISED
TO USE AUTHORITY
THAT THE PRESI-
DENT HAS POWER GRANTED
ON WAR TIME TO AVERT THE
RAILWAY TIE UP-CABINET
URGES PLAN.

WdSnlIlSLOIl, Oct. IT, w uetneT "
resort to the war powers of the fed
eral government to maintain railway
transportation in event of the threat
ened nationwide strike of railroad
workers is understood to have been
under consideration today by the ad-
ministration.
After the regular cabinet meeting
it became known that some members
of the presidents official family had
advised him to use the wartime au-
thority to prevent the threatened
strike from seriously interfering
with the transportation Of necessities
The provision authorizing president
provision authorizing the president
to take such steps is a part of the
national defense act which continues
in force until there has been a for
NAL proclamation of peace.
At the same time it was learned
that officials urging that course had
gone so far as to draw up lists of
men on whom the government could
call in emergency to keep enough
trains running to supply such ar
ticles as food and fuel wherever they
are needed.
1t was not indicated that definite
decision had been reached, however,
and most of the evidence tended to-
wards continuance of the waiting
attitude adopted by President Hard
ing while the negotiations between
the labor board and union officials
are in progress and while the inter-
state commerce commission is put
ting into form its new rulings on i'm
portant freight rates schedules.
Should the war powers be invoked
it is expected that the war depart
ment would be called on to perform
most of the duties thus imposed upon
the government. The degree of con-
troll which would be exercised over
the roads would depend on the de-
mands of the situation and might
reach the proportion of direct gov
ernmental operation.
Personnel data showing the occupa-
ton of every man in the service is
part of the permanent record Of the
war department an d is understood
to show that a large number would
be available from that source to
give experienced attention to the
task of operation. In addition the
government would expect considerable
help from volunteer sources, officials
having no doubt that men with rail-
road experience and now holding in
many cases important position would
be ready to come to the aid of the
government. 1t is understood that a
large number of such volunteer of.
fers already have reached Washing
ten.

ATTORNEY SHOT IN COURT
Chicago Policeman Kills Lawyer
Then Fires on Self.

Chicago-Before the eyes of ter
rorized throng in a crowded court
room, Henry D. Kellogg, known as the
millionaire policeman" shot and fatal
ly wounded Lemuel o. Ackley, an at
torney, and then sent bullet through
his own head. Ackley died while be-
ing taken to a hospital and the death
of Kellogg is expected
The tragedy resulted from court
battle between the two men over a
farm, both claiming title to the prop
erty through the purchase of tax
claims. Kellogg had been summoned
into court to answer a charge of con
tempt in disobeying an order award
ing the farm to Ackley. Judge
Charles A. Mcdonald of criminal court,
sentenced him to fifteen days in jail
for refusing to obey an order dis
possessing him of the property.
