Chicago, March IS. = Railroad brotherhoods today presented their bill of rights to the federal railway labor board.
 The bill was presented by Bert M. Jewell, chairman of the railway em- l ployes department of the American Federation of Labor. His statement opened the fight of the brotherhoods against the American Railway Execu- tives, who have asked abrogation of the national agreement, established during federal operation of railroads. Mir. Jewell declared the statement of the brotherhoods was a concrete proposal for the establishment of q permanent agreement which will be acceptable to railroad labor.
 The national agreement, against which the executives have filed form al protest, establishes uniform condi- tions of employment and wages for railroads throughout the United States. Executives claim it's obser- vance under present conditions is inn possible.
 A majority of members of the labor board of the executives association favor continuance of the federal rail- way labor board, created by former President Wilson in the summer of 1920. This was brought out in the testimony of Robert Brinkherd, vice chairman of the association, who de- clared that 10 out of II members of the associations standing committed on labor voted for continuation of the board when the question was submit ted on April 9, 1920.
 The federal board is continuing its hearings on the petition of the ex. ecutives for abrogation of the nation. al agreement. Mr. Jewell was the first witness for the brotherhoods Others will be heard before the board hands down a decision.

Harrison, March 1S,-Four deputy United States marshals have been sent from Little Rock with warrants for the arrest of strikers on the Missouri & North Arkansas, according to re- ports received here. The strikers are accused of assault upon strike breakers brought from Kansas City to operate trains.
 All train service over the road has been suspended indefinitely.
 Union men disclaim any part in the burning of bridges near St. Joe and Alpena. They say the disasters were due to the inexperience of the strike breakers.
 The strike was caused by a 20 per cent reduction in wages ordered 1T effect on February 1.

Little Rock, March 18-Labor con- ditions on the -M & N. A. railroad appear to be getting worse instead of improving. Circuit Judge Shinn yes terday wired request to Governor McRae for a detachment of 50 nation al guardsmen to be sent to Harrison to preserve order and protect property The governor called into conference Commissioner of Labor Wilson and Attorney General Utley. There was also present W. c. Jenkins of Chicago, representing the railway employees as- sociation. Governor McRae announc- ed that he would make very thor ough investigation of the situation before taking definite action
 During the day the governor also received a message from General Man ager Phelan of the railroad in which it is stated that: "On account of the reduction of wages February 1, order ed by the United States district court in charge of the receivership, all shop train, engine, bridge and track men quit the service and new men were employed who are satisfied with the reduced wage scale; at this time a complete and qualified organization is employed on the railroad and has and has been endeavoring under the most difficult circumstances to serve the people dependent on the railroad, but on account of lawlessness and in- terference it is almost impossible for us to continue running trains with safety and effective today operation of trains on this railroad will be dis continued; we will resume operations of the line when such protection is provided by state authorities as will permit of safe, sane operation and protect the railroad property against destruction which is being practiced.

Swallows Hard. But Swallows.

TINE management of the w. R. & E. has swal-
j lowed hard and taken its first dose OF medi-
Cine 1t doth protest" almost too much, but it has
swallowed. If after few months the public or Con-
grcss someone, has done nothing ION behalf of
the public to protect it in the enjoyment of the
street railway service afforded by this system
well, that is another matter. 1t may then go to
the courts abandon the Tcnleytown, Washing
ton-Interurban and other suburban lines.
There is possible assurance as to what the
management will do, if sufficiently peeved. But a
few months" will carry the company to March, when
the labor contracts expire. few months will
quite surely also bring some form OF merger law
few months is far more apt to bring further re-
duction in railway fares than any increase. Nor
is it at all probable the w. X. & Z. will go to the
courts abandon any suburban lines. Neither
would be the way OF corporation wisdom. For the
first time it is facing the real thing.
1t makes the further plea that the P. f. P. Co.
needs S. 100000 OF capital for betterments.
II it will shake the w. R. & Z. "old of the sea"
from the neck of the electric utility, there will be
less difficulty in getting this in bonds and stock is
sues utilities corporation which is earning 8
per cent dividends above a large bonded debt
charge and this under rates fixed by public
thoritv ought to have no trouble in getting
capital
The trouble with p. +. P. Co. is that being
owned solely by the w r. & F., it must get all
capital increase from bond sales. 1t cannot sell
stock 1t must borrow and at interest rate
which would be equally attractive to the stock
market. The worst enemy of the electric utility is
its ownership. Divorced from it, turned over to
the W. R. & F. stockholders, it could far more
readily finance itself without overlooking Of
fixed charges.

Urges Honor to Lee.

To the Editor. The wsshingtop Herald:
As the son Of a Confederate vet
eran. and as a loyal citizen Of these
United States. l wish to commend
you and your valuable paper for
the excellent editorih. recently
published. on the Robert z. Lee
mansion at Arlington and why it
should be renovated"
The movement to make this home
a fitting memorial to our beloved
Southern chieftain, was started by
the women OF the South, though as
stated in your editorial, everyone
throughout this country, North and
South. should surely endorse the
movement TO make the Robert E.
Lee mansion at Arlington a fitting
memorial"
'Tis a noble thing to thus honor
and respect our dead heroes, and.
incidentally. l am one from the
South who does pay homage to the
great Northern general, for these
two, like Washington. were brave
men. kindly in demeanor. and at ar
times devout Christian gentlemen.
Therefore. let the good work thus
begun by the Daughters OF the Con-
federacy, go on to a successful con-
cIusion. because as IL is now. the
Lee mansion Is not a credit to this
government or people: it should be
as far as possible a beautiful ex-
ample of the old home of the South
ern gentleman and memorial OF
the then owner. who came from
the civil war with honor. dignity
and as an American of Americans
In connection with this, let me
add that The Herald will not suffer
from the loss OF such subscribers
as W. II. p, who cancelled his sub
scription because of the editorial
on The Lee Mansion" published IN

Italian Tyrol.

FNEN the masters at the Institute oil Politics at
T. Williams College, those supposed to inhabit
a plane above the baser, the biased and prcjudiced
level occasionally show symptoms OF slipping.
Now and then the beam in the other fellows eye
looks like a whole building slant that is so
strabismic as to sec only self. But that other
fellow the beam is wholly i'll the eye that pretends
to look at him.
SO it was that Lord Bryce and Signor Tittoni
crossed words not swords. To Lord Bryce the
transfer to Italy OF the Lower Tyro crime.
1t tore Austria's child from her breast 1t was
without conscience, reason or excuse; wholly
brutal act Not so to Tittoni, who in it but an
act OF justice to Italy, who had suffered SO much
and gotten so little. AS for the Germans there who
were placed under Itay's flag, they but one
to scores of nationals transferred Czecho- -Slov
aka Jugo-S Slavia, Rumania and Poland. Why tear
passion tstters the wholly minor evil, if evil:
AS fact sef-determination throughout the Yer
sailles treaty was most observed by its breach.
Economic betterment and military necessity were
the controlling factors in making boundaries where
anything other than 1--WE want it" or you promised
it," was considered Ethnology regarded his
torically rather than as present fact. That part
OF Austria in the Tyrol given to Italy once
Italian its architecture is Italian many of its peo-
pie still speak Italian. But in less than fifty
years. Asace-Lorraine had become rather German,
than remained French.
The waters which drain the Tyrol, flow into the
Adige, an Italian river. Its mountains overlook
and their passes lead directly into the plains Of
Lombardy and Venetia. The upper end of Lake
Garda was beyond the Italian border The war
along that part OF the boundary to these
passes. The mountains were menace, not pro-
lection to Italy. If Italy was to gain anything
there by the war; she must have that mountainous
lung which hung her plains.
That feature OF the treaty has been little crt-
cized. Time and trade will make the section
thoroughly Italian, as it Tittoni was
right that Lord Bryce could have found worse
evils, and some nearer home, more worthy his in
vectve He might have found the beam in man
dates But better still he could have just been
Lord Bryce and stayed the heights where he
has always lived and where he belongs

RISE
MAY BE REVEALED

NEW YORK. Aug. 1.-THE ro-
nance OF a rise Of a millionaire who
founded his fortune as a picture
salesman is expected to be revealed
in a suit brought against Robert
NJ. Cate by George Hurt. of Atlanta
and New York.
Hurts action was a demand that
a receiver be appointed for Cats
and various realty companies he
controls. alleging that careless
management of the Grand Central
Palace here has resulted in a loss
of 100000. He charged that Cats
already had put valuable assets in
the hands of others.
Cats rise to the millionaire class
Is one Of the legends OF New York.
Turning from the picture business
he acquired wealth through real es-
tate operations and promotions and
climaxed his deals by acquiring the
palace" a great exposition hall.
He denies that Hurt had an interest
in the building.
