SEPARATE PEACE PROPONENTS WILL
 PUSH RESOLUTION
Question Discussed in Notable Day of White House Confer ences, But Presidents
 Stand Not Revealed
By Associated Press

Washington, April 2.--Senate propo- nents of an immediate peace with Ger many by congressional resolution are un- derstood to be standing firmly by their intention to present such resolution promptly on the convening of the extra session of Congress a week from Monday.
 Information that members of the Sen ate favoring speedy peace by resolu- tion had not abandoned their previously announced intention was obtained to- night after notable day of White House conferences at which the advsa- blity of congressional declaration of peace, together with other questions in volved in a peace settlement, were un- derstood to have been discussed.
 Whether the intention of the peace-by- resolution senators has been approved in any degree by President Harding, and whether it has the support of Senate republicans generally, were matters on which no information was obtainable. In this connection it was recalled that soine of the more prominent members Of the Senate favoring peace resolution have stated definitely that action on matters involving peace would not be taken III conflict with administration views.
 CONFERENCE MOST IMPORTANT
 The conferences at the White House to- day were generally considered in the bearing on international affairs as proD- ably the most important that President Harding has held since his inaugura- tion.s
 Senator Knox of Pennsylvania, for mer Secretary of State and author or the republican peace resolution of the last session of Congress- Col. George r 1T al q c ayT1- bassador to Great Britain; Myron T. Herrick of Ohio understood to be un- der consideration for ambassador to France, and Stepliane Lanzanne, noted French journalist who came to this country with former Premier Viviani. were among those with whom the President was closeted during the. day. All of those who participated in the conferences declined to say what specific proposals were discussed or to indicate when decisions might be ex- pected
 By inference, the days developments were coupled with the visit here of M. Vivian. who has brought to Amer ican officials a first-hand report as to the present attitude of the European governments toward the League of Ma tions and related subjects. Gossip about the mission of the former pre- mier persistentiy has insisted that he hoped to persuade the administration not to push its peace declaration, but rather to consider on what basis it might accept the treaty of Versailles.
 Senator Knox went to the White House at the Presidents invitation, and they spent more than two hours together. The visit started a new out cropping of speculation about the fate Of the peace resolution, but was fol-

l. Freel, president of the fnterna-
 tionni Stereotypers and Electro
 typers' union said the 44-hour week
 would go into effect on May 1,
 1921. ms previously agreed.
 Chicago, April 2.-DecIaration by en- ployers that the 44-hour week in the printing industry meant suicide, and re- iteration of union heads that failure to accede to the shorter week would pre- cipitate the greatest fight in the trade s history. marked today's conferences ot the international joint conference coun- cil of printing employers and employees.
 The employers hinged about a refer endum vote taken in 1919 by the five unions of the printing industry favorins establishment of the 44-hour week on the present 4S-hour wage scale and later agreed to by the United Typothetae ot America. Many employers, however, contend they are not bound by the ty- pothetaes action. and representatives from various parts of the country ap- peared at an open session to voice their objections.
 Speaking for the closed shop division of the typothetae, Harris Hatch of Philadelphia explained that the council had no power, but recommended the A. hour week, which was accepted in con vention. John w. Hasty of Chicago. an other member, declared that the conven- tion was not representative and that no organization of employees had the au- thority to represent the great body of employers over the country. He cited a typothetae meeting here yesterday at which only six cities besides New York and Chicago were represented
 The unorganzed group of employers does not feel bound by the recommenda- tion of the council nor the action of the typothetae, in the opinion of Edward A. Brewster of Joliet III. He explained that of the 65,0oO employing printers in the country, 5,000 were members of the typothetae and but .500 of thatepumber had closed shops
 Vigorous talks in which the principle of the shorter work week was upheld ana made that the l6D,0o print CTS and the 10000 women of the book binders union would fight against any made by various union offi- cers.
 W. l.. Perry, president of the pressmen' asserted the move was humane propo- sition. John w. Hays. secretary of the mion declared the unions rould fight just as hard as ever. John president of the Typograph- ical union, added the prediction that the employers would have the greatest fisnt on the4r hands ever known in the print ing industry if the A-hour week was not instituted May L
 Hope that the joint council would be a ble to iron out the difficulties was voiced by several other speakers. William Green of New York, where the move ment originated expressed the belief tbat The employers who ratified the shorter week in 1919 should stick to their agreement Negotiations shouid then be worked out, he said, to cover .. 4h.r ar,nlovars of the country

ACTUAL PLANS UNKN KNOWN

Vienna, April 2-ReportS from Steinamanger, on the Hungarian frontier received here today, showed that former Emperor Charles was re- maining in this frontier town pending the arrangement of certain details for his trip back to Switzerland. A rumor that he would go by way of Italy was in circulation, but it was believed this probably was circulated merely as a blind to covef+the actual plans,
 The Austrian social deinocratic party is making an effort to force the acceptance of it's proposal that a com mittee composed of members of the party accompany Charles in his jour ney. out. Their proposition was met with compromise offer that a com mittee comprising one representative of each of the three principal parties. the others being the greater German party and the Christian socialists, make the trip with the ex-monarch. It is understood however, that the officials responsible, for the safety of Charles on his trip. are opposing these propositions, considering that they would be apt to add torpublic knowl- edge of the trip and tend to nullify the precautions.
 The scare which Vienna has been ex- periencing over the reappearance of Charles as an4 active claimant for re- storation hes passed over and the city is again becoming tranquil. The gem eral feeling in political quarters seems to be that the incident has served to clear the atmosphere, definitely re- moving. for long time at least, the apprehension of monarchist effort in Austria.
 Count Erdody. one of the Austrians who accompanied Charles in his dash for Budapest has been placed under the ban in Vienna, and his home here has been requisitioned by the govern menty It. is understoodAthe socialists will energetically push their demand for an investigation of the attempted coup and the punishment of all con- cerned in the entry of Charles into Austria and his stay in this country.

WHEN ACTIoN BEGINS

Suddenly there is stir. One of the contestants has started to take his hand down from his forehead. Thes audience is agog Slowly the hand descends and lays hold of chess-man. For. one nerve-racking moment, which seems ages, it re- mains motionless. Then 1t is placed back to the forehead again, leaving the chess-man unmoved. With sigh like that of football crowd when punt rolls across the side lines, the watchers settle back again and begin to crack their peanuts.
 Thus it goes, hour after hour, the advantage first with one side and then with the other. As the day wears on and the strain begins to tell on the crowd, any sudden move on the part of one of the contest ants brings a score of faintings ana nervous collapses in it's wake It is almost more than flesh and blood can bear. And when, as in the first four games played in this tourna- ment, the result is draw, all the attendants have to do is slip quiet ly about among the watchers with blankets and tuck them in right where they are sleeping.
 Then, in the morning, the game IS on again.

 The crowd which gathers at the games is an impressive sight. As the sun shines in through the open win dows, striking the lenses of the spec tators' glasses as they sit in tense array on the side lines, it is like the glare of a sunset on the windows of a great city All is silence save for the ticking of the time clock on the table where the game is being .sI.

 Announcement that the books would close tomorrow for the North ern Pacific-G Great Northern bond of- fering was an influence of senti- mental value in the days develop ments, denotating the success of that important snderwriting and bespeak ing a better investment demand.
