HOUSTON'S ANSWER
COMPLETED TODAY

The answer of the Secretary
of the Treasury to the suit filed
against him by William r.
Hearst was completed today by
officials of the Department Of
Justice, and is TO be turned
over to the Secretary this after
noon for his perusal.
Just what contentious the
Secretary will make are not
known, but for the nature Of
the demurrer filed a few days
ago it is believed the Secretary
will try to show that he has
authority still to make foreign
loans of money paid into the
Treasury by citizens Of this
country.
Nicholas Kelley, Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury, in
charge of foreign loans, was
at his office this morning, and
plainly showed signs of the
grilling which he has UNDER
gone during the last few days
by the Senate Committee.

R. R. MEN NFACE
FINISH FIGHT
Unions Gird for Battle as Road
Executives FIatIy Refuse Re-
quest for Farley.

CHICAGO, Feb. ia Finish
fight" between the railroads and
their employees over the issue Of col
lective bargaining seemed inevitable
today as railroads prepared to an
nounce wage reductions for laborers
and the heads Of railway labor
unions marshalled their strength
for a bitter fight to prevent wage
cuts.
REJECT JEwELL's PLEA.
Railroad executives today had defi-
nitely rejected collective bargaining
as a method of arriving at wage
scales. The plea OF b. NJ. Jewell,
president OF the railway department
OF the American Federation OF Labor,
for a conference to discuss rules and
working conditions was fatty reject
ed by the American Association Of
Railway Executives.
More than 100 railway heads from
all parts OF the country attended the
conference at which decision was
reached to decline to participate In
such q conference.
Jewell. Frank p. Walsh. general
counsel for the railway brotherhoods,
and other union leaders have emphat-
icaIiy declared that they will fight
until the Fundamental principle" OF
collective bargaining is accepted.
Railroads throughout the country
are reported today to be preparing to
post notices of wage reductions az
fectjos- certain classes Of employees.
chiefly unskiiled laborers and track
workers. Employees are expected TO
object. and the dispute automatically
will come before the Railway Labor
Board as a controversy between the
individual road and its employees.
SEE .NATIONALIZATIO
Naturalization OF the roads in the
interest of the consolidated labor
unions" was the way the executives
characterized the conference proposed
by Jewell in his plea to the Railway
Labor Board on "Wednesday. The
executives declared they were not, op-
posed to labor unions. but asserted
the proposal OF the unions raised the
issue of whether maintenance or In
crease of the power of the national
labor unions shall be placed above
public interest In the efficient and
economical operation of our transpor-
tation system"
OF its own volition the Railway
Board granted Jewell. as representa-
tive OF the employees, until March 10
to prepare his rebuttal. Evidence OF
the Brotherhood of Maintenance OF
Way Employees, Clerks, Firemen, Oil
ers and Signalmen concerning alleged
violations of the national agreements
by the railroads will be heard by the
board on March !.

Considerable feeling and intense M
dignation WAS expressed on the sub
ject of censorship at a meeting OF
the employees at Nash's Hall, 70s D
street northwest. A resolution con-
demning censorship OF motion pic
lures. introduced by A. c. Pryor. de-
plored such a movement as a usurpa-
ton OF the rights of the citizens OF
Washington by the blue law pro-
ponents.
PROPONENTS CALLED FANATICS.
A stricter censorship of motion pic
lures was regarded "as an undue In
terest In the public morals by fanatics
who desire to enforce on the citizen
ship their warped conception OF right
and wrong"

adopted. follows:

CONFEREES MEET
T0D|SCUSS BONUS

with the fate OF the S24o bonus for
all Government employees hanging In
the balance, the House and Senate
conferees on the legislative, executive
and judicial bill held their first meet
ing at lao o'clock this afternoon.
Friends of the bonus are marshall
ing their forces in the House In an
ticipation of the vote that Will be
necessary on the Senate amendment
which extends the S240 bonus to fire
men and policemen and employees OF
the Navy Yard Arsenal.
Regardless of the attitude OF the
House conferees. which Is one OF OPP
position to giving the firemen and po-
licemen, and particularly the navy
yard employees the s2f0 bonus, the
House itself will decide the issue.
MAY UPSET PROGRAM.
Chairman Mapes OF the House
District committee and other mem
bers of that committee expressed con-
fidence today that the policemen and
firemen would emerge from the fray
with a full bonus to their credit In
stead of S120.
Instead of compromise being
necessary in order to save the S24o
bonus for Federal employees in gem
eral, Il Is the judgment OF House
leaders that the policemen's bonus
will be cut to s120 and the Navy Yard
employees left out entirely.
There Is the possibility In this
event. however, that Congressman
Blanton will make point OF order
against the whole provision.
