TWELVE PER
CENT REDUCTION
is ORDERED
This Decision Will Make
a Reality of the Estimat-
ed $4OO,OOO,OOO Annual
Saving for the Railroads
Practically Every Rail
road in Class / Included

Chicago, June 27.-The United
States railroad labor board today ex-
tended its wage reduction order, eff
fective July /, to nearly every large
railroad in the country. No change
from the average II per cent reduction
granted l04 carriers on June was
made by today's decision. The boards
order today covered 2lo roads.
Todays decision will make a reality
OF the estimated four hundred million
dollar annual savings expected when
the boards Il per cent cut, effective
July /, is applied to all employees, on
all railroads, known as class one car
riers. The decision drawn up as adden-
dunn to the wage reduction order of
June |, adds practically every railroad
in the class one division to the original
list of l04 roads authorized to make
the II per cent reduction.
When the reduction order was issued
it was estimated that it applied to all
employees on all class one roads, it
would lop approximately four hundred
million dollars from the country's rail
road labor bill. The new decision will
make this cut possible by ordering re-
duced wages for employees not included
in the original case and also by in
cluding employees of roads which were
not parties to the first hearing
Virtually every railroad in the coun-
try affected by the labor boards six
hundred million dollar wage award Of
july 20, 1920, was included in one or
more of the three hearings.
While no definite returns have been
announced from the referendum being
taken by all the railway unions on ae-
ceptance or rejection of the II per cent
cut, it is expected that conferences here
in July / will agree to accept the
boards decision without any interrup-
tion of traffic.
To.day's reduction order involved
nearly all classes of employees on vir
tuslly every railroad known as class
one carrier, now included in the boards
original reduction. The class one group
includes every big road in the cum
try.
The only change in the rates of re-
duction made by today's decision was
in the case of some marine workers.
Rates established for marine workers
in New York follow: Captains, 5000;
pilots, $3.50; engineers, 500; assistant
engineers, $50; firemen, Sl4O; deck
hands, $l25; stewards, Sl.25.

MUCH DISCUSSION
OYER JAP ALLIANCE
London Newspapers Are Concerned in
Proposal Before the I'm
perial Council.

London, June 27. The imperial con
ference which reassembled to-day is
likely to last much longer than was
originally proposed, probably through
July. Even then, it is believed, it will be
necessary to postpone action on many
subjects pending further discussion
During the past week there has been
a full confidential reviewing of the en-
pire's foreign policy but none of the
speeches delivered in this connection
has been made public.
There has been noticeable develop
ment recently in press comment on
the subject of the renewal of the An
glo-Japanese treaty. 1t had been gem
orally assumed that the government
policy contemplated renewal of the
treaty but with notifications clearly
defining its position with respect to the
United States and China.
A number of influential papers, how
ever, in their most recent comment,
have favored the idea of replacing the
treaty by some tripartite agreement or
understanding among England, the
United States and Japan, which would
regulate all questions concerning the
Pacific ocean and China.

In the event of Eamonn De Valera ac-

it is probable that the dominion prime
ministers, now in London, will be in

If Mr.. DE Valera accepts the invita-

one of the most momentous in a cen

tion that neither Sacco nor Vanzetti
was passenger in the automobile in
which the highwaymen fed from the
scene of the killing of paymaster Fred

fore the murder was Sacco or Vanzetti

machine diagonally to the rear at the
time she saw them. She denied telling
state detective about three weeks
after the crime that Sacco's photograph
resembled a man she had seen in the
car Mrs. Novelli acknowledged that
she said she had thought the man a
friend of hers but a second look showed
that it was not he.
-Four other Italian railroad laborers
testified that neither Sacco nor Vans
zetti was seen by them in the bandits
car They said they had been two men
on the front seat and one man in the
rear.

ULSTER GROWS

Believing She Is Being
Drawn Into Plot at
Subjugation
OPPOSES FARLEY
ON IRISH QUESTION
SCOTS at De Valera's Claim
of An Irish Re-
public

| o. Belfast, June 27-The unionist news
paper Northern Wing takes exception
to Premier Lloyd Georges attempt "tc
draw Ulster into conference with the
Sim Fein," declaring he is not treat
ing Sir James Craig, the Ulster pre-
mier, fairly in asking him to meet Ea'
monn De Valera.
"What has Ulster to do with De
Valera's absurd claim that he has set
up republic in the country" the pa
per demands.
The News Letter says; Owe are dis
closing no secrets when we say that
this invitation for a conference is a
sequel to the bringing into being of
the northern parliament. The Sim Fein
has to face that fact and reckon with
it 1t can only do that in one of two
ways-by abandoning the demand for
republic and agreeing to the estab-
lishment of a southern parliament un-
der the government of Ireland act, or
by continuing its present insane cam
paign to its own destruction by foree."
The Nationalist Irish News says that
the idea of inviting De Valera and Pre-
mer Craig to conference at London
did not occur to Lloyd George and his
colleagues until they had made King
George the agent and instrument Of
their policy of destruction in Ireland !"
After pointing out that full fiscal
freedom must be the basis of any ne
gotiations for a national settlement,
the paper says:
1T remains to be seen whether Lloyd
George is acting because of a spasmodie
pang of honesty or is merely develop
ing another strategic manoeuvre for
putting tive-sixths OF the Irish nation
in wrong before the eyes of the world"
In message telegraphed here from
Paris, where he is acting for Irish re-
publican interests, Sean 0'Ceallaigh,
member of the Irish republican parlia
ment, says:
Mr.. Lloyd Georges invitation to ex
plore the possibilities of settlement,
if independence is not excluded, will
undoubtedly receive the earnest consid
Grafton of President DE Valera and the
Irish cabinet"
William Coote, member of Parlia-
ment for South Tyrone and member
of the Ulster delegation which visited
the United States in the winter of
l9l9-20, in statement to-day regard
ing Mr.. Lloyd Georges letter. says:
Il have believed all along that there
was plot to subjugate Ulster to the
Dublin Parliament. ! didn't expect TO
plot TO ripen so soon or to be pre-
sented in so clumsy a fashion. Ulster
has already contributed her quota to
the pacification of Ireland. She has
nothing further to barter unless she
hands over civil and religious freedom.
Therefore we say to the premier: just
let Ulster alone to develop and defend
her place in the empire, and YOU and
De Valera do whatever you wish with
the remainder of the, country.
We are willing TO work with all
Irishmen for our country's good but
only as free, self.respecting citizens of
the British empire. We decline TO Rsso
eiate with murderers. at least until !
