Harding to Talk on Economy
And Ask for Cooperation.

The meeting called by Gen. Dawes is
the first of it's kind in the history of
the nation. The order for its assembly
was sent out over the signature of the
Director of the Budget, but it carried
the line: by direction of the Presi-
dent" a familiar one in army orders.
President Harding will deliver an
economy talk and ask for the full CO.
operation of his subordinates down to
the smallest bureau chiefs. So far as
known this is the first time since Colon
ial days that a President has felt 1t
possible or been called upon to meet all
of his executive assistants There are
several hundred department. bureau and
division chiefs and assistant chiefs in
Washington, not TO mention chief clerks
of the departments and bureaus and the
heads and assistants in the independent
bureaus and on numerous boards. The
order for the meeting is directed to all
OF them.
The men called into the conference
are those who have always actually pre-
pared the estimates for Congress. Esti-
mates for the next fiscal year will be
begun promptly on July /. when the
budget bureau comes formally into ex
istence. In the past bureau and division
heads prepared the estimates of what
they needed These estimates We're re-
viewed by department heads and in
turn by the Secretary OF the Treasury
Each of the bureau heads had his own
ideas. and they were generally carried
through.
Cen Dawes hopes TO bring together
and get the ideas OF all OF these men
and then start them all on a general
campaign for estimate cutting.

QUEBEC. June 27.--The city OF Quebec.
although 1t is without police and fire
protection since the walkout Saturday
night, is claimed by the chiefs of both
departments to be fairly safe. A dead
lock exists between the striking police
and firemen and the City Council, the
city having stated that they would ac-
cept the decision Of the arbitration COM
mission with regard to an increase in
wages. but both forces refused 10 ac-
cept and held out for an increase of
Sl.50 week straight.
The police were recently granted an
increase OF 81 = week by the arbitra-
tion committee and they seemed salts
fled up to Saturday morning, when they
saw that the firemen were asking for
$3.50. so they decided that they might
as well get the fifty cents extra.
At midnight the men OF both the fire
brigade and the police force walked
out, and during the night windows were
broken. a police station was wrecked,
the lamps on the principal streets OF
the city We're smashed. telephone wires
were cut and other damage done.
The Mayor asked the Twenty second
Regiment, in camp ut Lewis, across the
river from Quebec. to take charge of
public safety. The regiment is now in
control of the city, men being stationed
at practically all of the public build
ings.

Railroad problems touching the future
financial stability of the carriers and
the introduction of new economies in
the management of the transportation
systems of the country occupied the
attention Of both President Harding and
the Congress to-day.
President Harding discussed the trou'
bled credit conditions confronting the
carriers with 4 delegation of railway
supply manufacturers. Alba p. John
son, president of the Railway Business
Association. headed the delegation. He
told the President Industrial employ
neHt throughout the country Is being
aggravated by the fact that railroads
are unable 10 pay many of their cur
rent bills or 10 meet obligations with
railway supply manufacturers. Mr..
Johnson placed some of tine blame for
the situation upon the non-adjustment
OF railway accounts with the Govern
ment.
carriers would be helped by proposed
pedite the adjustments of claims for
amounts due by the Government.
The President was informed that rail-
road orders are being held at mini
mum as a result of the uncertainty
over settlement of The Government
payments. The delegation discussing
proposals to readjust railroad rates
declared that the problem must be dealt
with as whole. pursuant to COM
prehensive programme.
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion can serve the whole country in
the long run successfully only if it re-
tains the prestige and esteem to which
its quasi-judicial character entities il.
Survival of the privately owned and
operated railroads requires general alb
stinence from agitation and political
pressure in connection with any matter
over which the commission has juris-
diction." the delegation said in its state
ment presented to the President
Certainty that the Interstate Com
merce Commission viii retain it's free
dom of Judgment with respect to pro-
posed rate readiustments will substan-
tally strengthen the tendency toward
business resumption. Traffic is increas-
ing. If shippers could feel sure that
the ratio policy which is 10 prevail is
the policy known to be that of the COM
mission such certainty would mvlSorate
and hasten general recovery"
Larger economies in railroad opera
tions must be brought about through the
cooperation of the rail managements.
Forney Johnston. counsel of the National
Association of Owners of Railroad Sc
curities, declared. testifying before the
Senate Interstate Commerce Committee.
John +. Wallace, railroad engineering
expert. in his testimony before the COM
mittee. said 1.-The application of the
competitive principle to the development
of railway terminal facilities at large
commercial and industrial centres has
resulted in duplication of terminal IA
cilities and railroad service and In con-
sequence these competitive arrangements
have resulted in burdening the railroads
with unnecessary capital expenditures
and greatly increased operating ex-
penses."

assurance of her good faith will take

Dutch florins and some dollars.
These will be accepted at the ex-
change rates prevailing on the day pay
ment is made and will be credited on

which Germany has now started to re-
deem are in dollars
1t has been agreed that any loss oc-

chargeable to the Allies. Germany re-
ceiving Immediately full credit for her

Germany will be handed Tomorrow
two of her twenty treasury notes matur-

100000 gold marks toward another
each note being for $1Q,o0o.o0o. To-

Special Despatch to THE New York HERALD
DETROIT, June 27.-"Why are they
picking on us? There are lots OF fel-
lows here in worse fix than we are"
Two blind veterans of the world war
stood in Grand Circus Park to-day while
being photographed, and couldn't under
stand the why of it. One of them,
Michael Aaronsohn, national chaplain of
the Disabled Veterans Association. must
wear artificial eyes and built up
face as result of a shrapnel wound
received in the Argonne offensive. The
other Curtis Williams, song specialist,
has his own eyes but they are sightlcss.
Each depends on, others to guide him
through the world and yet both asked
why they were being picked on"
The convention of the Disabled Amer
lean Veterans of the World War. which
opened here to-day, is the first nation
wide assemblage of wounded service
men. About 500 delegats and alternates
have registered. The attention of the

providing for the welfare OF the disabled
veterans.

OF avoiding mistakes" of red tape and
to get Congress to formulate definite
settled policy for taking care of the
disabled soldiers that the Disabled Amer
ican Veterans of the World War are
meeting here.
Judge Robert S. Marx of Cincinnati,
national president, in discussing the
nature and purposes of the convention
declared '"rhis is an epoch in history,
as it will be the first time disabled sol
diers have spoken as unit Those IN
public Office have said wounded men
would get what they asked When this
convention is over there will be no doubt
as to what these veterans want.
''We want action. not talk or politi-
cal bunkum Though there were only
554 DAYS of actual warfare yet now
after three years no adequate meas
ures have been taken to aid those VINO
were disabled Everybody knows that
hospital facilities are not sufficient.
practically no suitable provisions
have been made for tubercular and gas
cases. The war risk department now
has more than $1,000 applications held
in it's offices. This must be remedied
and remcdied Immediately"
Further than Fastening relief legis-
lation the sessions purpose to effect a
permanent organization. Estimates were
made of 237 900 potential members in
the United States.
Ralph A. Horr of Seattle had an in
teresting experience to-day. a few
hours before the armistice Capt. Fred
e. Leister of Colorado. of the same regi-
ment in which Mr.. Horr was Captain
was severely wounded. Horr carried
Ieister to safety. but was severely
wounded while doing so. Horr spent
eight months in European hospitals To-
day he met Capt. Leister for the first
time since they were both wounded.
Neither expected to see the other.
