state Department and other officials
who have to do with the coming confer

plainly disturbed at the continued ef-
forts OF Wayne b. Wheeler of the Anti

deprive foreign visitors coming to Wash

This attitude was marked to-day in
indignant answer to Mr.. wheeler's latest
ontburst on the subject, which revealed
the fight the drys are making against
such liquid hospitality as might be prof.
fered during tho International meeting.
II became apparent that the Admins
tration does not intend to precipitate n
situation that would embarrass the vis-
itors. no matter what Mr.. Wheeler or
the other dry advocates may say about
It, The Administration view is that
wren the foreigners visit the United

Government, they should be treated as
guests and not as possible law breakers
on whom watchful eye should be Kept

gain away any rights OF the public in

message was in reply TO a telegram from
Mr.. ,forss which had said:
I'VE understand that railroad er-
ployees have suggested that strike may
be called off II assurances can be given
that 10 further decreascs OF wages
shall be asked for by tho railroad cx-
ecutives. This IL contrary to public
policy, for the railroad executives can
not bargain away the rights OF the pub
lie. The pubic looks to you TO protect
It's rights
Chairman Barton's reply was:
You appear to be laboring under a
misapprehene,on. The thought has
never entered the mind Of any member
of the board TO bargain away any or

US. LEGAL WEAPONS

Mr.. Deueherty made this statement
to the newspaper correspondents to-
night at the end of the conference:
ST asked these men TO come here for
a conference. We have arrived at an
understanding In the event OF an
emergency.
II stiii doubt that there will bo a
strike. 1t is the duty OF the Depart
ment Of Justice, however, to tako nee
essary <tcps toward uniformity in pro-
cedure in the courts. a policy has been
decided upon. We have discussed the
various plans Of the Department II there
is a strike. We did not discuss the
merits OF the matters In ,disput. With
the merits, the Department OF Justice
has nothing TO do. Tho merits at no
time enter into our part OF the pro-
gramnle.
Probably we will concede that the
men have the right to strike in so far as
that means quitting their jobs.
"They may strike in groups. But i
do not say that they may strike IN
groups broadcast over the country with
cut violating the conspiracy laws. when
II comes to antagonizing the United
States Government. I say that by
peacefully doing so men may quit work
and strike But when IL comes to tho
Governments interest they cannot strike
back.
"The Government has the power. the
right and the duty Of saying that the
owners OF the railroads and their en-
ployees give the American people the
service they are entitled to. The Anner.-
can people are more interested in these
facilities than In the controversy now
pending, regardless OF who is right or
wrong.

Berlin, Oct. ~.
The leading spirit back of Charles
Hapsburg in his movement to regain the
throne OF Hungary and the man who was
slated to be Charles's Foreign Minister
II the movement succeeded, is Gustave
Gratz. an Austrian journalist, who for
many years was Budapest correspondent
Of the Nc4se Frejc Presso and later was
Hungarian Foreign Minister.

The Berlin press prints numerous re-
ports trying to prove that France IA
vored the return of Charles to the Hun
sarian throne. A despatch from Inns
bruck declares that an agreement be-
tween Charles and the French was signed
\ few days before the one-time ruler
left Switzerland. by which Charles ac-
cepted three conditions. namely,
l. That Hungary would follow an anti
Ger1nan policy.
9. That Hungary would join the Lit
tie Entente.
3. That the Hungarian army would be
put In charge OF French instructors.
Premier Bethlen Of Hungary. in the
face OF a formal protest by the Allies
and by the Little Entente. is said TO
have promised to do his best TO cause
Charles to leave Hungary and has issued
a proclamation to the Hungarian people
reminding them that their sacred duty
Is TO live up TO the terms OF the Venice
agreement for the settlement OF the West
Hungarian (Burgenland) problem.
The German press. and even the mon
srchist section OF II, glowers at the
