STA EMENT IN BEHALF OF
 ROADS

NEW YORK, Oct. 20.-(SpeciaD- - A statement issued by certain com merciaI organizations says:
 "To dispel misconstruction and mis- understanding. it is all important that the public and the employees should know at the outset and bear in mind continually just what it is that this proposed strike of the railroad em- ployes is directed against. They are not striking because of any refusal of the railroads to reduce rates, they are not striking because of any in- tention expressed by the railroads to avail themselves of the right con- ferred by the transportation act of 1920 to appeal to the railroad labor board for a further reduction in wages.
 "The strike vote was taken some time before the meeting of the rail- road executives at Chicago and be- fore their attitude in respect to rates or further reduction of wages was known. The strike is against the order of the railroad labor board. ren- dered Jnne 1. 1921. after a full hear ing of both sides declaring that there should be a 121a per cent reduction of wages. There can be no question as to the correctness of this state ment. The morning papers of Oct IT printed telegram from Cleveland which states what the correspondent obtained from the brotherhoods rep resentatives as to the cause of the strike in the following language:
 The strike is against the 1212 pei cent wage cut ordered by the rail road labor board. It cannot take into consideration the new wage cut which the railroad executives made known their intention of asking. be- cause, that cut has not gone before the labor board and, therefore, cannot be officially known to the brother hoods
 The New York Times of Oct. 1s quotes from communication of tht brotherhood leaders to their ioca chairmen as follows:
 Sirs and Brothers; The vote ol the members was overwhelmingly fl favor of a strike on the question O. wage reduction by the United State: railroad labor board, effective July 1, 1921.'
 Tt follows from the t>bove that tho strike is directed against the pro- visions of the act of congress, Is ( protest against the conclusions of tn, railroad labor board, and is not du' to any action of the railroad eXecu tives, nor certainly no enc can i'm pose responsibility upon the railroad executives for making an application for reduction of wages which wa. sustained by the railroad labo board"

Committee Says No Effort Made
 To Cancel Debt
[Republlcan A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, Oct. 20 The ways and means committee. in a re- port to the house today on the for eign loan refunding bill, declared there was no basis for belief that authority was sought by the Secre- tary of the treasury, either to ex- change the war obligations of one country for those of another. or to cancel any of the money owed the United States by the allied nations.
 While no previous authority was sought the report added, a specific provision was put into the bill as follows:
 That this act shall not be con- strued to authorize exchange of bonds or other obligations of any foreign government for those of any other foreign government or cancel lation of any part of such indebted ness except through payment there of"
 The measure will be taken up by the house tomorrow. Democratic members of the committee. in a mil nority report, insisted that the bill should be so amended to require con- gressional approval of all acts by the debt commission looking to final set clement with foreign nations.
 The report declared that at the time loans were being made by this government the possible length of the war and the approximate amount of advances were not known

 SUPPORT TO DEVELOP MINERAL INDUSTRIES

CHICAGO, Oct 20-F'ull co-opera- uon of the United States department of commerce to meet the organized competition of commerce abroad was pledge the mineral industry of the United States by Secretary Hoover, in a telegram to the American min ing congress tonight.
 MT. Hoover requested the congress to appoint a committee to cooperate with the department in the develop ment of foreign trade for American minerals. This committee will be appointed before the convention ad- journs, officers stated.
 Tt is the desire of the department to cooperate with the mineral in- dustry in the development of our export trade in mineral commodities, said MT. Hoover Tt is our keenest desire to be brought into closest re- lationship for o-operation with the industry, and it seeks appointment of a committee from your congress which will cooperate with the de- partment"

leaders have repeatedly asserted that | the question of working rules, which, ! they said, they had been years In working up, was the crux of the sit uation. Practically nothing was said 1 in the conference about the F per cent wage reduction which was the technical basis on which the strike
 was called, it was learned.
 Members of the board said they did not consider that the board had exhausted it's powers and that an executive session would be held to- morrow when further procedure would be determined.
 Union Leaders Depart w. s. Stone, president of the engi- i neers; w. G. Lee, president of the dent of the firemen, returned to Cleveland tonight. L. E.

The executive committees of the engineers, firemen and conductors
 now are in session. The committees of other organizations will meet in
 Cleveland Monday.
 l While the scene of strike activities shifted back to Cleveland with the l ending of tonights conference, a
 union man close to the brotherhood
 chiefs said he expected the next step
 to be taken from Washington.
 ''The labor board has, of course, | forwarded a full report of the con 1 ference to Washington" he said. | If there are further steps toward conciliation they will be taken there. 1ha xHiI1 ri hpf 1 Union heads expressed the opinion that If there were any concrete re-
 suits of the conference they lay in the fact that the minds of the labor | board members were disabused of 1 the idea that the unions were not sincere in calling a strike"
 When we went in there" said one chief, the board seemed to be of the opinion that we had been bluff i ing and were just waiting for some
 one to dissuade us from carrynig out 1 the strike order.
 'rBelieving this, the board had vir- tually nothing to offer in the way i of a settlement plan. Its members
 talked a lot, but actually had little to say, of any importance, merely | trying to get us to change our plans. Unions Not "Bluffine" They seemed to think we could postpone the strike until we made it plain that that could not even be
 considered and that there must be
 settlement satisfactory to us or { the waIkout would begin at a. m., ] October 30.
 We hope some angel will appear
 with a plan to avert the strike, but there were no such angels at today $
 meetings.
 "The chief result of the meeting is | the labor board knows we are not l bluffing and we know that they had
 no real plan to offer"
 The only signed statement from a
 union head was from MT. Stone.
 ''The situation is unchanged and l
 s uppose I might add that I don't ex- pect one angle of it to be changed even in heaven, for if I get there

AMERICAN MEMBERS IF ARMS ASSEMBLY MEET HUGHES TODAY
Republican A. p. Leased Nirel

WASHINGTON, Oct. 20-Members of the American delegation to the conference on limitation of armament will meet again with Secretary Hughes tomorrow with additional data bearing on questions to be dis cussed ready for inspection. The work of getting up the studies of various matters included under the agenda has gone ahead and the mass of information accumulated for the American delegates been greatly augmented.
 It was learned today that Ameri- can officials do not expect the ques- ton of immigration restriction i'm posed by this country on Japanese, on Chinese nations to play any part in the conference deliberations. All governments, including Japanese have recognized the immigration problem, outside the realm of the conference, it was pointed out.
 As to the agenda it was again said authoritatively today no objec- ton had been made by any power
 to the outline of discussions pro- posed. When the conference meets. it is said, it was possible further topics within the scope of the agenda | would be proposed and accepted, but it was pointed out no question not embraced in the general outline fur
 nished by the accepted program of l discussion could well be added with | out the specific agreement of the | governments participating
 It was again emphasized that the 1 conference was to be a meeting of i equals and that it involves no voting | or majority rule All parties must 1 reach agreement on any step taken. | it was said. and no delegation can be i bound against it's will on any point. l The whole purpose. it was added, | was to reach by discussion such a mutual understanding on any points | taken up that mutual agreement 1 would flow naturally from that un- l derstanding. The form of such agree ments, when reached, must of neces- 1 sity be decided on by the conference | and before they can become binding or be written into the policy of any of the participating governments | they would have to be approved by 1 such governments.
 It is this view of the mission and | method of the conference that inn pells officials here to believe that l such questions as oriental immigra-
 ton will not be brought up.

 BROKEN EYE GLASS
IRepubIican A. p. Leased wlreI

ROSEBURG, Ore. Oct. 20-Dr. R. NJ. Brumfield, facing sentence of death for the murder of Dennis Rus sell attempted to commit suicide to- night by slashing his throat.
 Sheriff Starmer found Dr. Brum- field lying on his cot in the jail cell with his throat cut. He was semi conscious.
 Brumfield has a chance to recover, attending physicians said later.
 Ut was believed Brumfield might have used a broken lense from his spectacles to slash his throat but the cell contained no trace of the spec tacles and the officers could not veri- fy this theory. Nor did a search reveal any other sharp instrument.
 Brumfield was found lying on his cot his head over the edge and blood pouring from a deep gash. Apparent ly he had committed the act 15 or 20 minutes earlier. Physicians said the juglar vein had not been severed, but that he was extremely weak from loss of blood
 An official of the district attor- ney's office asked Brumfield. wether in view of his serious condition. he wished to make an statement con- corning the murder whereof he stands convicted but the man was too weak to answer
