IN ADVOCATE OF LIQUOR A
 AND JAZZ MUSIC FOR SHIFTS


 Washington. Feb 21.-Liquor and jszz music were var;ously suggested to the shipping board today as a means of en- &bliIg American passenger ships to com pete on. an equality with foreign liners. The proposals were advanced at a con ference held by the board with repre- sentatives of the Pacific coast ports on the allocatlon of new ships to the west coast and the establishment of trade routes to the orient.
 E. F. Elaine of Seattle told the board he did not believe American ships were going to be well patronized if there were soft drinks, prayer books and hymnals In their salons" while Roger D. Pinneo of Ostoria, Ore. declared the people of his district were of a different opinion re- sarding liquor, and "as to the hymn books we could put little jazz music on board and keep within the law" James A. En- cry of San Francisco said he agreed with Mir. Blaine with the qualification thzf the ships ought to be dry, but the pas sengers wet"
 ! Recommendations fcr the distribution of eleven new 535 foot combination pas- senger and cargo vessels built by the board among the Pacific ports were pre- sented by representatives of various coast cities. The new snIps are needed to de- velop trade with the orient, they arzued. If this country is 10 compete with the Japanese and British shipping lines op- erating cut of the west coast.

The action taken in Germany. the statement said. was move to pre- vent the development of a dye industry in this country.
 "The Dupont company" said the statement, which was signed by Irene Dupont, president of the concern, has not violated any law or. business princi- pie, and these accusations made by the Germankartel are simply another move in its campaign to prevent the develop ment of the dye industry here.

RECOMMENDATIONS BY THE

Chicago. Feb. 21-The United States railway labor board today recommended that the wage controversy between en- ployes of the Atlanta, Birnin Eharn and Atlantic Railroad and the road be re- manded for further conferences before the board makes any decision in. the case. -
 The road was operating under s1oo.- 900 month deficit, the officers showed. and declared immediate relief was nee essary to avoid scrapp!ng the road. The road announced a reduction in wages but the board ordered the reduction notice withdrawn pending presentation of the case before the labor board. When the case came up February 10 the employees maintained that matters of finance were without the boards jurisdiction and should properly go to the interstate com rnerce commission.
 The boards decision says that in view of the fact that conferences on whether the present rates are just and reasonable had not been held, the board did not deem it necessary to decide to what ex. tent if at all, carriers financial con- dition is factor in the determination ot just and reasonable wages to be paid by such a carrier"
