US. RAIL BODY
ERASES PLEAS
OF SHORT LINES
Dismisses Applications for
Changes in Working Con-
ditiOns and Rates.
66 ROADS ARE AFFECTED

CHICAGO. March ,25.-All applications
by, Short line railroads for changes of
working conditions and rates of wages
that govern the so-called standard"
lines have been dismissed by the United
States railway labor board. The de-
cision affects sixty six roads In all parts
Of the United States.
The board ruled that none Of the ap-
plications by the short line roads could
be acted upon until cases pending that
involve the standard roads are disposed
Of. The decision. however, does not pre-
vent the smaller roads from bringing
up their applications when the calendar
is clear of cases involving the large roads
and 1t does not affect any decisions as
to wages. hours Of labor or working con-
ditions previously rendered by the board
The decision is In effect a refusal to
permit the short lines to participate for
the present in the 5000, 900, 900 wage scale
award for the standard lines made last
summer. Employees on many Of the roads
affected, however, are receiving the Scale
enjoyed by employees in some classes OF
labor. on the larger lines.
Four thousand employees, varying from
25 to 400 for the several carriers included
in the decision, are erected.
The labor board In its decision makes
a point of the fact that employees on the
so-called "short lines" are not classified as
to labor performed and that a compre-
hensive study would have to be made
with regard to such classification before
a reasonable decision could be given in
the two hundred or more cases.
The present action, the board states
shall not In any way affect the right Of
employees organizations of the carriers
in question to meet with representatives
OF carriers on wages or working condi
tions and also does not affect the right
to refer any dispute resulting from such
conferences to the labor board.
Among the roads affected by the de-
cision are:
Akron. Canton & Youngstown: Chicago
& Illinois Midland; Dayton, Toledo g.
Chicago; Duluth & Northern Minnesota !;
Detroit. Bay City & Western; Escanaba
& Lake Superior; Ft. Smiths& Western /;
Minnesota, Dakota & Western; st. Louis

ment of mystery was added to the Stin-

to figure in the case
Counsel for Mrs. James A. Stillman,

new plan of action in their fight against
her husbands efforts to obtain a divorce
and declare Baby Guy Stillman illegiti-
mate. A strong report that the crux of
this new plan is a motion for discontinu-
ance of the case, which would mean
abandonment of the whole double divorce
action, was not denied by Mrs. Stillman's s
lawyers.
In the meantime, however, while both
sides are waiting for Justice Morschaus-
er's decision on Mrs. Stillman's motion
for $4,000 q month alimony and $4,000
counsel fee, 1t was learned that new SEN
sational letters have been unearthed by

woman figures and which may form the
base Of new counter charges by Mrs.
Stillman against her husband, who Is

glessman who has returned from a

But here's the rub. The rules Of
international conference are those Of
a poker game. The spokesman Of
each nation "sit in" with certain
cards in their hands which in the
final showdown determine the price
chat nation pays for the advantages
it gains. We may all fervently wish
it were otherwise, but it is not, and
we must face the facts.
Our strongest card in the present
in lance is our undoubted ability to
stand a program of competitive ar
mament better than any other nation.
Failure to reach an agreement for
the curtailment of military eXpendi-
ture will mean a more acute calamity
TO the people of Great Britain and
Japan than to our own. Their con-
cessions, therefore, should be in pro-
portion. But if public clamor in
