In Case of a Railway Strike
Food Will be Carried Into
the City by Trucks.

New York, Oct. ia fleet of
$1,000 motor trucks or as many of
them as are found necessary will be
modified in the event of a protracted
railway strike to bring New York her
quota of 1900 car loads of food
stuffs per day
There are adequate supplies in
storage, it is said, to ration the city
through a rail tie up of three weeks
but importation of milk would be
necessary.
The coal situation it is said was
somewhat less favorable owing to the
fact that coal companies have scant
storage space. Efforts are being made
to induce large consumers to fill theil
bins at once so dealers may stock uI

HAYES SAYS THE

Government Departments Are
at Work Attempting to
Avert Nationwide Tie-up.

Washington, Oct. 17.-The gov
ments began a survey of the situa-
ton as developed by the call of the
railroad union leaders for general
strike beginning Oct. 80. Officials
from President Harding down to de-
partment bureau chiefs were known
to be watching the situation closely
meanwhile hoping some means might
be found for averting paralysis of
the nations transportation system.
The whole range of possibilities was
regarded as SO nebulous at the
present time as to make it practical
to await developments before taking
action.
Hope was expressed that the sug-
sestion advanced by the public
group of the railroad labor board in
conference with the interstate COM
merce commission might be made a
basis for a solution of the problem.
The public group proposed the
railroads Immediately put into effect
the freight reductions equivalent to
the wage decreases authorized by the
railroad board last July, that the
railroads withdraw further requests
for wage reductions and employees
rescind the strike order pending the
action by the board on proposals for
carriers for future wage cuts.
Postmaster General Hayes de-
clared the mails will be moved"
am sure the parties to the contro-
versy will not permit developments
which will interfere with government
services This is not time for a
statement. A time may come for ac-
ton. I hope not. If it does there
will be action. The Mails will be

making a better record by saying that
he did not have a full force Of men
at work because he is only appointing
men who are in sympathy with the
enforcement of the law. He promises
however to make a better showing
for October and November. According
to the report Kohloss men destroyed
25S stills 1865 gallons of liquor, s.
265 gallons wine, 216,111 gallons OF

Proposals Announced From Dry
Headquarters to Tighten
Lid in 1921.
ASKS FOR MORE MONEY
100000 Not Included BY Com
mittee Framing sundry
Civil Bill.

Washington-Hard on the heels Of a
series Of raids for v~iolators Of liquor
laws in all parts Of the country, three
proposals were announced by which
prohibition enforcement officers hoped
to be better able to curb the Illicit traf.
fc, as the approach of 1921 draws
near.
The three courses to be pursued are:
Wholesale liquor permits granted
for 1921 will be reduced to a minimum.
Special agents will watch retail
druggists who are given permits.
Dealers who are granted permits to
handle industrial alcohol will not be
allowed to deal in Intoxicating liquors
also.
More Money Wanted.
These announcements were accom-
panied with a request from A. Mitchell
Palmer, attorney general, for addition
al funds for enforcement Of the eigh-
teenth amendment.
Prohibition Commissioner Kramer,
who told Of the proposal to reduce the
number of permit holders, especially
among wholesale dealers, said that he
intends to refuse to reissue from so
to rs per cent of the wholesale licenses
which are now in effect.
Particular study is being given to
Atlantic seaboard areas and certain
Great Lakes cities and border points,
both along the Canadian and Mexican
frontiers, in an investigation of the
1900 permit holders which is now
being made to see which Of those re-
quests are worthy of consideration for
resistance of licenses. Fewer permits
would be granted in those areas in the
future, Mr.. Kramer said.
Retail Dealers Watched.
Attention is also to be given the re-
tail druggists and it was indicated that
those who stray from the regulations
will suddenly find themselves unable to
handle the distilled spirits. Records Of
druggists, for the most part, it vas
said, are good.
The order f~orbidding the handling Of
Intoxicating liquors by dealers in in
dustrial alcohol or of alcohol by per.
sons who held intoxicating liquor per-
mits, was drafted and announced by
the bureau OF internal revenue.
Need for additional funds to enforce
the prohibition measures was voiced
by the attorney general in testimony
given to the House appropriations COM
mittee. His request for 100000 has
not been included by the committee in
framing the sundry civil bill,
Commodore Reynolds Of the Coast
Guard t7ld the committee that there
was a big stock of liquor on the
Bahama islands less than 40 miles from
the Florida coast and that ii was be-
ing smuggled over in small vessels and
flying boats. He had intercepted
"some," he added.

BONUS COST
Secretary Houston Appears Be-
fore Senate Committee.
Approximately $4,000, 900, 1000 Would bs
Cost Of Carrying Out Soldiers
Aid, He Says.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS $780,
100000 was the estimate submitted by
Secretary Houston of the Treasury de-
partment as the cost of carrying out
provisions Of the soldiers bonus bill.
The secretary presented his estimate
to the Senate finance committee and
urged that no legislation be enacted
which would lay an additional burden
On the nations finances. The estimate
was accompanied by figures showing
the cost of carrying out any one of the
five optional provisions Of the bonus
bill provided all former service men
chose a single plan.
The figures for the various plans
range from s1,342. 000, 900 for the ad-
justed pay provision, to $4,534, 900. 900
for the insurance provision. The max
imum possible cost of the vocational
training aid and the farm and home
development plans were placed at ST.
$4,000 900 each while the secretary
said the fifth provision, a plan for land
settlement held so many uncertainties
that 1t was impossible to estimate the
possible expenditure.
Submission Of the estimated total
cost made an apparent impression
upon members of the committee, which
is considering the bonus bill as passed
by the House at the last session. Mem
bers declined to forecast the decision
OF the committee on the question OF
reporting out the measure, but it was
recalled that Senator McCumber, Re.
publican. Of North Dakota, stated at
the opening of hearings on the bill that
it's passage would depend largely on
the state Of government finances and
that Mr.. Houston had testified the
Treasury, with normal expenditures,
would have a deficit of s2,100, 900, 900
for the year ending next June 30, and
a deficit Of $500, OoO, 900 for the fol.
lowing IL months.
