Placement training" provided for one

lar establishments was branded as GRIM
inal to-day by Col. Charles r. Forbes
Bureau. In a. report to President Har-
ding he recommended the training Of
all such men in Government owned and
operated institutions.
Col. Forbes's report was a review of
conditions as found on a recent trip
through the West to inspect the work
of the newly formed Veterans Bureau
for the former service men. He said his
investigation indicates that 10000 one
time soldiers are being exploited rather

Col. Forbes said the men in placement
training are being used to further the
production Of the shops and similar
establishments regardless of the kind OF
training they are supposed to receive.
He continued:
1T is evident on the face of 1t that
these men are being exploited when the
proprietors are paying them $40 and Sis
week for their services. The men are
being paid by the Government while
they are in training; the proprietors of
these mushroom institutions are being

PENNSYLVANIA n. n.
TAKES ON $4,000 MEN
Jobs Provided in FiUe Months
to Repair Equipment.

Samuel Rea, president of the Penn
sylvania Railroad system. made the fol-
lowing announcement yesterday:
1T is the purpose Of the Pennsylvania
Railroad management to cooperate as
far as possible with President Harding's
efforts to reduce unemployment. Since
the beginning Of summer there has been
a small seasonal upward swing in our
traffic. This has been less than normal,
but there has been more work to do. and
in the last five months We have taken
on about $4,000 more men than we had
at the close of spring. The total force
OF the Pennsylvania Railroad system is
now 10000 men. as compared with
185.625 on May Is, when the low point
was reached.
1T is our hope that still more men
will be needed and that we shall be able
In the near future to find employment
for further increase In the force. We
intend to utilize the additional men
chiefly in putting our lille equipment In
order prior to the coming of winter.
I'VE have at present on the Pennsyl-
vania system s2.149 idle cars. of which
1851 have been stored without being
repaired. More Of the latter are re-
quired for current use or, as far as can
be foreseen. are likely to be needed this
fall. In all probability it might be
perfectly safe to defer their repair until
next spring. but we feel that If we put
them In order we shall not only be pre-
pared for revival in business but shall
also be assisting at a time when aid Is
most neede in President Harding's en-
deavor to improve the general employ
ment situation

WAGE REDUCTIONS
UPIN CONFERENCE
Bothersome Question Put to
Those Considering Means
to End Idleness.
Special Despatch to TIE New YoRK HERALD.

Washington. ID. c., Oct. 3.


New York Herald Bureau.
Washington, ID. c.. Oct. 3.
The important question Of the reduc-
ton of wages in mills and factories and
other lines, which economists agree must
be readjusted before the nation may get
permanent prosperity. was taken up to-
day by the manufacturers committee of
the unemployment conference. The mat
ter also will be considered Tomorrow
and thereafter, promising to occupy
much time even after the conference
reassembles next Monday.
The matter Of wage reduction was
avoided by the committee last week on
the ground that the emergency character
OF the meeting demanded action and not
talk. 1t had been apparent that fight
would result between the capital and
labor groups as typifed by Charles M.
Schwab and Samuel Gompers.
Soon after the conference met 1t de-
veloped that the consideration of wages
would draw a controversy. AS result,
the emergency recommendations of the
committee provided for a rotation Of
Jobs so the greatest number could have
an income. A programme of price cut
ting by manufacturers. wholesalers and
retailers on the basis of present day
reproduction cost was advised so conf
dence might be restored in the mir2s Of
the buying public.
When the conference recessed last
Friday after completing the emergency
programme 1t adjourned to next Monday
except for the meeting of the committee
on measures by manufacturers. set for
Wednesday The members wanted TO
push the programme 80 there might be
no delay In the final report.
Samuel Gompers represents a group
determined against any recommendation
for reduction in the wages paid to
labor. He takes the position that the
standard of pay for the working man
must be higher than before the war. and
that manufacturers and other employers
of labor should recognize this and be
willing to accept the pelicy in making
their calculations.
The employers of labor such as Mr..
Schwab say labor is too high and there
can be no readjustment in wholesale and
retail prices until there is a reduction.
The sooner la Dor realizes this, they say,
the sooner conditions will get back to
normal and the sooner the employment
situation will cease to be acute.

Charles r. Crane, former Minister to

ten. has injected himself into the politi-
cal situation with a rush. Last night
Mr.. Crane dined with Woodrow Wilson
and to-day conferred with Senator Rob-
ert M. La Toilette CWis.) and Senator
Oscar Underwood (AIa).
No admissions have been made BY
Mr.. Crane or by either of the Senators
he consulted. but II is understood the
good of the regular Republican leaders
of the Senate and. of the Administration
itself was far from the purpose of the
conferences.
Mr. Crane has just returned from
China by way Of Siberia and Russia.
and is an acknowledged authority upon
Far Eastern affairs 1t Is understood
also that Mr. Crane primed himself with
information concerning purely European
affairs
While Mr.. Crane is not discussing his
grievances it is well known that he has
not forgotten the incident which brought
about the cancellation of his appoint
ment as Minister to China after he had
boarded steamer at San Francisco to
assume his post. Mr.. Crane had been
named by former President Taft and 1t
was given out that his recall was due to
an indiscreet anti-Japanese speech. An
other story currently reported was that
Mr.. Crane was appointed over the head
Of Secretary of State Philander c. Knox,
who insisted that the appointment be
recalled.
Mr.. Crane supported Mr.. Wilson in his
second campaign for election. He was
later named by President Wilson as Min
lister to China to fill out the term OF
Paul Reinsch. who was understood to
have been embarrassed In his official
position because of promises Of support
he had given China in regard to Shan
tung.
Reports that former President Wilson
is interesting himself in the Senate fight
over the ratification of the German.
Austrian and Hungarian treaties have
been denied by persons close to the
former President but it is confidently
believed that Mr. Wilson will continue
his fight for vindication of his course at
Versailles.

DRY LAW VIOLATION
GROWING, SAYS TAFT
Breaks Precedent by Appear
ing as Witness in Behalf Of
Judgeship Bill.

Special Despatch TO THE New York HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau.
Washington. ID. C.. Oct. D.
Viols tions of the prohibition law are
likely TO increase rapidly, Chief Justice
Taft believes He expressed this opinion
to-day when he stepped down from the
Supreme Court bench and shattered
precedent by appearing in the unusual
role Of a witness before the Senate Ju-
dietary Committee to urge favorable
action on the bill to establish eighteen
additional Federal Judgeships to relieve
the congested Federal Court dockets
throughout the country.
DO you think prohibition cases will
increase?" Senator Reed (Mo) asked the
Chief Justice
Il do not hesitate to say that believe
violations of the prohibition law will
greatly increase before they begin to
grow fewer" the Chief Justice replied.
The Volstead act. according to the
Chief Justice. has added considerably
of the congestion in the Federal courts
but not as much as 1t Is generally sup
posed. He estimated that prohibition
violations had Increased the business Of
the courts about per cent.
Attorney-General Daugherty, also be-
fore the committee to urge the additional
judgeship bill, differed with Chief Justice
Taft regarding the prospective increase
In prohibition cases.
prohibition cases have reached their
peak now" Mr.. Daugherty said. "At
the outset 1t was believed the dry law
could not be enforced. 1 have seen that
theory disappear"
Senator Sterling IS. d., leader Of
the radical dry" forces in the Senate,
asked Mr.. Daugherty IL he did not be-
lieve prohibition cases might increase
for time until the methods Of enforce
ment improved.
mo-" replied Mr. Daugherty. "The
peak has been reached and violations
will decrease. as the people will want
to see the law enforced"
Mr.. Daugherty added that State a,i-
thorities have shown an inclination to
leave prohibition enforcement to the
Federal Government This tendency,
he said. was beginning to disappear and
the Federal and State authorities in
future.
Wayne 3. Wheeler, spokesman for the
Anti-Saloon League, issued statement
agreeing as to the necessity for addi-
tional judges, but insisting that pro-
hibition was not to blame for the con-
gestion OF 142,502 cases pending In
the Federal courts on July 21 ne said
only 1896 cases were for violation of
the prohibition laws.
1T was pointed out at the hearing
that IL the Federal judges would try
these prohibition cases on information
instead of by indictment 1t would greatly
relieve the court docket" said Mr..
Wheeler. I'm other places the crowded
condition is due to the neglect Of some
district attorneys to avail themselves,
of existing provisions of the law. The
a abatement sections may be enforced by
direct action before the court without
delay. The frequent continuance Of
these liquor cases until the witnesses
are tired out causes unnecessary con-
gestion Of the court dockets."
