known old recipe for making cough
syrup. 1t is simple and cheap but it
has no equal for prompt results. Ii

immediate relief, usually stopping an
ordinary cough in "a hours or less.
Get 2h ounces of Pinex from any
druggist, pour it into a pint bottle,
and add plain grsnulated sugar syrup
to make full pint. If you prefer,
use clarified molasses, honey, or corn
syrup, instead Of sugar syrup. Either
way, it tastes good, keeps perfectly,
and lasts a family long time.
It's truly astonishing how quickly
IL acts, penetrating through every air
passage of the throat and lungs
loosens and raises the phlegm,
soothes and heals the mem branes, and

ness or bronchial asthma.
Pinex is a special and highly con-
centrated compound of genuine Nor
way pine extract known the world over

In discussing the railroad strike
A. j. Frey, vice president OF the

could turn over twenty-five oil-burning
ships a day for ten days. He said
there would be no difficulty in obtain
ing crews, owing to the number or
seamen who we're out OF employment;
and further, that the men employed on
the laid-up vessels would form po-
tential nucleus in manning the boats
as were pressed into service.
In the event of a railroad strike,

Hope for Compromise
Growing as Rail Labor
Board Opens Meeting
BY LUTHER A. HUSTON
international News Service.

CHICAGO, Oct. 18.-The sun OF a
possible compromise shone through
the clouds of the railroad strike for
the first time this morning. Indica-
tions were that events were moving
toward adjustments that would avert
the nationwide tie-up Of rail traffic,
scheduled to begin October 80.
Barton Due in Chicago.
Among the foremost of the ind.ca-
tions was the expected arrival here to-
day of X. M. Barton. chairman Of the
United States Railway Labor Board,
together with other members Of the
public group of the board, fresh from
conferences with President Harding
and other high Government officills
in Washington.
No definite announcement OF any
plan Of the Government to end the
strike has been made. but the predic-
ton was vouchsafed today that Chair
The Washington times., 1921-10-18

man Barton would take some action
soon after his arrival here toward az
adjustment OF the controversy.
Members OF the Railway Labor
Board who are In Chicago went into
conference shortly after 10 o'clock
today.
Chairman Barton and Ben w.
Hooper. members OF the public group
had not arrived from Washington
when the conference convened.
The conference was regarded as sig
nificant in view of the general belief
that the board planned move TO
avert the threatened rail strike.
The impression was prevalent thSt
both sides were seeking basis of
compromise that would make possible
retirement from the dc finite posi-.
tions already taken. 1t was believed
the Railway Labor Board would seek
to take advantage of this situation to
bring about an agreement. The pos
sibility of a conference between rail
chiefs and union leaders, under aus
pices of the labor board, was not dis.
counted.
Basis for Compromise.
Many Of the union leaders have
said a strike could be averted now "
guarantees were given there would be
no further wage reductions. This Is
taken as an indication that the unions
are willing to come half way" In shs
matter of an agreement.
The railroads are understood to
be seeking relief from the strained
financial situation. II some way to
accomplish this. other than reduction
of wages, could be pointed out, II is
believed they would agree to reten-
ton Of existing wage scales.
The attitude Of the unions af-
filiated with the American Fedora
ton Of Labor. as distinguished from
the big Four" Brotherhoods. re-
manned the uncertain factor in the
situation today. A series of con-
ferences, beginning today and con-
tinuing until Sunday, will settle this
issue.
BrotherhoOds' Chiefs Suspected.
Frank suspicion of the chiefs of
the brotherhoods Is openly expressed
by leaders Of the federation unions
assembling here. These officers made
II plain no action committing the
federation unions to a definite strike
program would be taken until the
purposes and methods Of the brother
hoods were clearly understood.
1t was said by B. NJ. Jewell, presi-
partment of the American Federation
of Labor, that IL the brotherhoods
go out, it would be impossible to
hold the men Of the shop crafts and
other federation unions in line. They
may not Join with the brotherhoods
in the actual conduct Of the strike.
but they will strike, 1t was declared.
even il they keep the machinery for
conducting the strike entirely in their
own hands.
j. F. Spock. vice president Of the
Brotherhood of Maintenance of Way
Employees, declared any action to-
ward compromise taken by the
Big Four" orotherhoods would not
necessarily affect the federation
unions.
