Who
MET ACCIDENT
May RECOVER
injured Man Undergoes Sur
gical Operation at Sani-
tarium-Skull Fractured
lis Very Low.
(From Fridays Daily


Tho unknown man who was
struck BY a freight train Tuesday
afternoon, between Halliday and
Marmaduke, is believed to be in a
slightly improved condition at the
sanitarium, though his condition
generally is very serious. The iden-
tity of the man remains a mystery.
Several persons have called at tho
hospital to view him but no one,
thus far, has been able to recognize
his features.
An operation was performed upon
the unfortunate fellow for the re-
lief of the fracture Of the skull.
It was found that the lining of the
brain was intact. The skull bone,
however, revealed severe fractures
but the fact the lining of the brain
is uniujurcd leads to the belief that
the patient has a slight chance TO
recover.
II the Slight improvement mani
fest today continues i duration OF
another twenty four hours liquid
nourishment will be administered and
other advanced treatments entered
upon. The man has never regained
consciousness.

To Fight Return to u. S.

WARSAW, Dec. 20 BY The Associ

William Linde, who when arrested here
recently in connection with the Wall
Street bomb explosion begged Sylvester
Cosgrove, an American Department OF
Justice agent, to return him to the
United States, has changed his former
attitude.
Lindenfeld now, according to the local
police, says he viii fight any effort that
is made to take him back to the United
States. He has engaged an attorney y
and has informed the police that he
prefers to face the Polish charges
against him rather than go back TO
New York.
WASHINGTON, Dec 29-Although
declining to discuss the matter, VII
liam j. Burns, head of the Departme ent
of Justices bureau of investigation, was
understood to have before him to-day
a full report of the recent arrest in
Warsaw of Wolfe Lindenfeld in con-
nection with the Wall Street explosion
of September, 1920.
Mr.. Burns also refused to discuss
rumors current in Washington that the
arrest of Lindenfeld as reported by the

Soviet Commission Gives
Up German Contracts

BERLIN, Dec. 80 (By The Associated
Press The official Russian Soviet
trade commission has notified German
firms, with which it has been dealing
here, that it is unable to conclude pend
ing agreements. 1t says it is ham
pered in the execution of its contracts
by difficulty in obtaining permission for
its representatives to enter Germany
and by lack of Office space in Berlin.
The commission, which has &
monopoly on German trade, has at pres
ent personnel of 800 and forty Office
rooms.
In connection with the increasing
volume of trade, it is reported in well
informed quarters that negotiations
are under way to establish here Rus
sian credit fund Of 700, 100000 marks,
to be guaranteed by Russian treasury
notes which will not be put IN circu-
lation.
AS indicating the trend toward closer
trade relations comes an announcements
that the Deutsche Bank, the Berlin
Chamber of Commerce, the Dresdener
Bank and the Warburg banking house
have been named as sponaents OF
the Russian State Bank.
Hugo SHINES, according to Ruma-
nian newspaper dispatches, has pur-
chased three shoe manufactures in

Hoover Makes First Definite
Announcement of Policy

ON The Tribune.s Washington Bureau

From The TribuneS Washington BIredH
WASHINGTON, Dec. 29-No inter
national economic conference, either
for the stabilization OF exchange or
any related world problem, will be
called by the United States after the
adjournment of the armament confer
ence Should any other nation take
the lead in such a movement, however,
this country would accept ar. invitation
to participate.
This statement, made to-day by Sec
retary of Commerce Hoover, was the
first to come from any of the Admin
stration heads indicating how this
government would regard such an in
vitation. Rumors of such conference
have been afoat III Washington for
some time
So far it is believed that any of
these reports that may have emanated
from official sources were throttled by
the representatives here of the inter
ested countries because Of the arna-
ment conference. With the completion
Of the work of that gathering now in
sight, talk of financial meeting of
the nations is expected to be renewed
Several responsible officials have, at
various times in the last few weeks
discredited the recurring reports and
Mr. Hoover's statement is the initial
intmation that the United States
would be willin gto participate.

Shunting of Veterans
Denounced by Forbes
Disabled Men Must Not Be
Pushed Along Like Freight,
He Saws

From The Tribune's Washington BureoW
e WASHINGTON, Dec. 20. Colonel
Charles r. Forbes, director of the
United States Veterans Bureau de-
clared to-day at meeting of educators
and scientists called to consider the
problems of the disabled service man
that the bureau would not tolerate the
continuance of system whereby the
men undergoing rehabilitation were
scheduled, rated and pushed along like
SO much freight"
"It is not the intention of myself or
the bureau that this shall be the way
of handling human beings" added
Colonel Forbes. They are my COM
rades and your comrades, and I want
them EN-. handled as though they were men.
"The great educational problem be-
fore us in trying to return 100000 dis
abled war veterans to their place in
society is that of the human touch, and
we have got to meet it that way. The
President, | know from his many con-
versations with me on the subject, is
deeply interested in vocational educa-
tion.
"Forty-one per cent of our entire
soldier population taking vocational
training are in placement training in
shops and manufacturing plants. /
am informed that 5000 of our bene-
fieiaries have been rehabilitated, but I
have failed to find 1000 who are ac-
tually engaged in the employment
which they selected or which was Sc
lected for them.
1--WE must send these men back into
society mentally, physically and NOR
ally fit to occupy their places as useful
citizens"
