MEN
TRY TO REACH
AN AGREEMENT
Congress Confronted by Peace
Measure and Army and
Navy Policy.
TWO BRANCHES DIFFER

WASHINGTON, May 31.-Republican
leaders were striving to patch up an
agreement between the Senate and House
majorities on a peace and an Army and
Navy policy when Congress reassembled
today, after three days holiday.
With Republican Senators divided
against themselves on the $500, OO0, 900
bigger American Navy" appropriation
bills, rumbles of discomfort among the
Republican membership of the House over
the $100,0o0,0oo increases proposed by the
Republican controlled Senate Naval At
fairs Committee are growing larger.
A disposition evinced by Republican
representatives to tinker with the Borah
disarmament provision adopted unani-
mOusly by the Senate so as to make 1t
apply to military as well as naval arma-
ment also threatens to tie up the Navy
bill in conference after It is finally dis
posed of in the upper chamber.
PEACE BILL CONTENTION.
TO BE sMoOTHED.
The division between 5the Senate and
House Republicans on the form the still
pending peace resolution should take is
yet to be sraoothed out. Representative
Porter Republican. Pennsylvania, chair
man Of the House Foreign Affairs Com
mittee, is said to have gathered a large
number of adherents in his demand that
the Knox peace resolution be either
amended materially. or discarded utterly
for a substitute so as to eliminate any
repeal Of the congressional resolutions
by which United States began war with
the central powers.
The size Of the Army is another serious
bone Of contention between the Senate
anG House which promises additional
trouble for the Republican leaders.

tomorrow in Poughkeepsie, John E. Mack

have asked for the postponement on the
grounds that pressure of other affairs
would make 1t impossible for him to

1t was denied by those closely as

wife that the new contemplated post

negotiations for a settlement out of court.

ASKS SLICE IN
RATES ALONG
WITH WAGECUT
Brotherhood Head Says High
Rail Charge Keeps Food
From Hungry.
LIVING COST IS ISSUE

WASHINGTON, May S1.--A demand
that the proposed cut in railroad wages
be accomplished by a reduction in rates
on Pacific coast fruits and vegetables
was made today by J. b. Malloy, vice
president of the United Brotherhood of
Maintenance of Way Employees and Shop
Laborers.
"Hundre of thousands Of dollars
worth of fruit and vegetables can not be
shipped to the hungry East because Of
hi rail rates and are rotting in Cali
forr Ia" Malloy said in a statement.
WOULD TEST
GOOD FAITH.
"If the railroad executives who have
been talking so much are acting in good
faith, it will be up to them June /,
when wage cuts are announced, to show
Il by reducing freight rates proportion
stely. II rates from the Pacific coast
were reasonable, fruit and vegetables
would food the eastern markets. thus
materially reducing the cost of living.
Cheaper food is big issue and there are
too many starving people today to allow
such terrible waste as is to be seen on
California farms and orchards.
Now that the wages are about to be
cut, labor calls their bluff. Cost Of liv-
ing cannot go down until freight rates
are lower. If the railroad laborers are
forced to suffer cut in wages they de-
mand that the cost of living be lowered
in order that they and their families
may live"
WAGE DECISION TO BE
PUBLISHED TOMORROW.
Two million rail employees are waiting
for the decision Of the United States Rail-
road Labor Board, which is expected TO
take about $500 100. 600 a year from their
pay envelopes The board has announced
that its decision would be made public
in tomorrow mornings newspapers.
Although the cut applies only to com
mon labor. it is expected decreases Will
be made in the pay of skilled employees
soon.
The board is swamped with petitions
from railroads asking permission TO
slash wages under the new ruling.
The ruling of the board viii end a
long fight between employees and
executives. headed by W. W. Atterbury,
vice president of the Pennsylvania lines.
Atterbury, several months ago, petitioned
that wages Of common labor be trimmed.

BELIEVE MARINE
STRIKE END NEAR
Officials and Strikers Hold
Conference.

WASHINGTON, May 31.-Hope that
lasting settlement OF the strike of marine
engineers and seamen would be effected
late today was expressed by officials of
the labor department. Secretary Of;
Labor Davis this afternoon was to con-
fer with a committee OF strikers, Ad-
miral Benson OF the United States ship
ping board and representative Of private
vessel owners. The strike committee and
Benson practically have reached agree
ment on a 10 per cent wage reduction
but the private vessel owners thus far
have refused TO go in.
Strike officials today were prepared to
sign up with Admiral Benson aad
arrange a date for return to work.
Some insurgents in the rank and file,
however, may present a settlement be-
cause OF their refusal to accept the wage
reduction.
