MEN
REQUEST STRIKE As
HOUR RULE PROTEST
Ten Hour Decision of Railroad
Labor Board Objected to by
Eastern Workers.

New York, Dec. 14.-By The AS
sociated Press)-The action of the
United States labor board in Chicago
Tuesday in setting up schedule of 10
hours day at the regular hourly wage
for common laborers in new rules re-
placing the national agreement made
under government control, Wednes-
day brought to union officials appeals
for strike orders from representatives
Of 10000 workers in the New York
district.
This announcement was made We'd
aesday night by w. ID. Roberts, grand
yice-president of the United Brother
hood Of Maintenance Of Way employees
and Railway Shop laborers. The first
protest he said, came from Pennsyl-
yania railroad workers, followed by
appeals from workers on the Erie,
Delaware, Lackawanna & Western, Le-
high Valley, and the rest of the u
lines operating within a 75-mile radius
of New York.
Roberts said that the New York
council had advised local chairmen to
hold their members at work and await
action by international officers. He ex-
planned these orders had been hastened
out to forestall sporadic strikes, and
that meeting of the district coun-
ell would be held as soon as word was
beard from the international officers.

FRANCE TAKES UP
NAVAL PROGRAM IN
CONFERENCE ROOM
Will Ask for 315,OOO Tons of
Capital Ships to Secure
Proper Protection.

Washington, Dec. 14.-(By The As
sociated Press. )-France will ask for
an allotment of 315,0OO tons Of cap
ital ships and proportionate per-
centage in smaller classes when the
question of the French and Italian
navies is taken up, possibly Thursday
or Friday, by the recently appointed
conference naval committee of fifteen.
This was disclosed authoritatively
Wednesday night by a spokesman for
the French delegation.
The French thesis takes the pro-
gram adopted by the French parlia-
ment in 1912 which, had it been COM
pleted, would have given a fleet now
of 10000 tons. The war caused the
program to be abandoned. The pres
ent requirements of France, it will be
represented, are both in the remote
Pacific and continental, the defense in
Europe covering two naval fronts, the
Atlantic and the Mediterranean.
Communication with Algeria, it also
is held by the French, would be of
7ital Importance In war because of the
necessity of transporting troops and
supplies freely. These reasons, it is
expected, will be developed in detail
by Vice Admiral De Bon and his
French colleagues on the committee.
The French delegates have assumed,
their spokesman said, that they will
not encounter spirit of dictation re-
spccting what are considered to be
European requirements in confer
ence called to deal with Pacific naval
proportions. There have been no pre-
liIninary studies by this conference,
it was pointed out. of European prob
lens. discussions having been confined
to the far east. The disposition of
tie French delegates, which is de-
scribed as one of "calm tenacity,' is
taken as an indication by many that
che meetings of the naval sub commit
tee may be more interesting than has
been supposed by most observers.

, "Well. this gives me breathing
SPELL" he said Wednesday afternoon
when he learned that Col. O. F. God
dard, chairman of the committee, had
decided to continue the meeting of the
committee until January 8, upon the
advice Or suggestion of counsel for
Mr.. Conley.
1t is expected that the committee
members. Col Goddard, of Billings,
David Hilger, of Lewistown, and A.
w Miles, Of Livingston, will meet in
Helena Thursday and adjourn until
January s. At least that was the in
formation which reached the governor
Wednesday afternoon.
The governor had expected to issue
a statement Wednesday afternoon,
following a conference had with Lieut.
Governor Story through the noon
hour but, when he learned of the de-
cision of the committee, he said he
would delay the statement until later,
as this action would give him oppor-
tunity to look into the law, study the
matter thoroughly and then act ad-
yisedly.
While Governor Dixon would not
say that he could or would discharge
the new committee, it was gathered
from his talk and attitude that he
looks with great disfavor upon a sec
ond investigation, which he feels
cannot get any place, can result in no
settlement of the questions involved
and will merely result in putting the
states case in the possession of coun-
sci for Conley before it can be pre-
sented in court.

CARRIERS ASK
F0RREDUCT|0N
IN GRAIN RATES
Ask Six Month Trial of
10 Per Cent Rate on
Farm Products.
Request Is Opposed by
IS Western State Rail
Commissions.

Washington, Dec 14-Request for
six months suspension in the reduc-
tions recently ordered by the interstate
commerce commission on grain, grain
products and hay in the trans-Missis-
sippi territory was made by the rail-
roads of the country and opposed by 10
western state railroad commissions, ag
ricultural organizations and shippers in
hearings Wednesday before the federal
commission.
Alfred p. Thom, general counsel for
the Association of Railway Executives,
in proposing the suspension, asked the
commission to allow the carriers in the
meantime to make effective cut of 10
per cent in rates on all products of
farm, range and orchard in all move
ments in the United States outside of
New England.
Delay Costly to Farmers
Clyde M. Reed, chairman of the util
tiles commission declared so far as the
western farmer is concerned, the 10 per
cent voluntary" offer of the carriers
lis delusion and a snare" and that
the maneuyers of the carriers since Oc-
tober has principally been for the pur
pose of delay.
Clifford Thorne, appearing in behalf
of the western agricultural associations,
said the prices of all commodities ex-y-
cept railroad transportation had drop
ped materially in the last year, while
this had increased. J. NJ. Benton, at
torney for the state commissions, as
serted that the commissions had found
the grain reductions reasonable and that
accordingly it would not be legal to
maintain higher rates.
Mr.. Reed, attacking the suspension
proposal, said that essentially the grain
reduction had been sought to meet
emergencies in the agricultural indus
tries but that there had been startling
contrast" between the expedition with
which the railroads had secured rate ad-
vances in 1920 and the delays encOun-
tered by the western states efforts.
Christmas Coming
Christmas is coming" Mr. Reed said
'but in the stocking of the western
farmer there will be found no bill of
lading for reduced rates on the COM
modities he produces"
Sweeping reductions in transporta-
ton charges at the present time would
not assist full resumption of business
activity and would be injurious to the
railroad, Howard Elliott, chairman of
the board of the Northern Pacific and
a dicertor of the New Haven, declared
in statement made before the inter
state commerce commission.
