PLAN ADVANCED TO
 AVERT RAILROAD STRIKE

Washington, Oct. 16. Immediate translation of the reduction authorized last July in wages of railroad employees into reduced freight rates was suggested by the public group of the railroad labor board as one feasible plan by which the present controversy can be settled and strike averted.'
 If the railroads will immediately, in good faith, adopt this suggestion the public group said ii the first statement issued since arrival ill Washington, ''the situation can be cleared up, freight rates reduced to shippers, the cost of living re- duced to consumers and d stimulating effect exerted upon all business
 Under the plan suggested by the pub lie group. the railroads would withdraw their request for further wage reductions until freight reductions have been com pleted and pending action of the board on such petition for further reduction as the carriers may subsequently, submit '' the unions would withdraw the strike or der

morning from Chicago, where yesterday the five transportation organizations or dered the strike, and at once began send ing, out official notices of the strike order to approximately three hundred general chairman of his organization who did not attend the Chicago conference. General chairman of the four Other organizations attended the conference and were given their orders there.
 Mir. Lee explained that the strike or der sent out to the five organization was final and definite, no provisions being made for a po~-oonement of action. Only q satisfactory settlement before the date set for the strike to begin has been pro- vided for in the instructions sent to the general chairmen.
 Me Lee said that when the five railroad organization chiefs met with commit tee of five railroad managers in Chicago Friday to consider the F per cent wage reduction already in effect an dwere in formed by the railroad managers that further 10 per cent. wage reductions would be requested, the brotherhood chiefs gave up all lvspe of an anicable settlement and the strike order resulted
 Orders for calling off the strike in case a Satisfactory agreement has been reached are contained in sealed code mes SaSeS mailed 10 all general chairmen with the official strike order, which are not to be opened until receipt of a code telegram. If this code telegram and the sealed code message are. identical, the general chairman will know the strike has been settled. All the code telegrams sent | to the general cllairmen are worded diff ferently, and the general chairnlen in passing along similar instructions to local 1 hairnen WI use different codes also The purpose of using this code system
 rather than one general code word, il was said, was 10 prevent the brotherhoods 1 being imposed upon should the code word ! fall into improper hands, or otherwise.

NO GOVT ACTION ON THE
 PROPOSED RAILROAD STRIKE

Washington, Oct 16.-The federal ac- tion in connection with the threatened
 national railroad strike still was confin-
 ed today to the conferences brought about
 by President Harding between the inter
 state Commerce Commission and the
 public representatives on the railway la
 bor board.
 Consideration of the major problem pre- sented by q prospective paralysis of the countrys carrier system practically at the opening Of winter will be resumed at } o'clock tomorrow afternoon by the two government agencies which have been in charge practically complete regulation of railroad affairs.
 Members of the conference maintained silence today as to the basis upon which the problem would be discussed. The impression given at the White House today was that having turned the matter over to the agencies established by law to handle it, President Harding had taken no further initi,tive and would await the outcome of the conferences. 1 In labor circles. however, he expecta- 1 tion was expressed that the legal branch ] of the government would be utilized be ! fore many hours had passed.
 1 T presume that the next thing will be the injunction President William II. 1 Johnston, of the International Associa- 1 ton Of Machnists remarked He did not give the basis for his expectation and | there was no indication from other
 sources that government officials were pairing to appeal to the courts to prevent 1 disruption of the nations business, par i ticularIy of the mails.
 l President Harding's agreements for
 the day did not include interviews with any of the cabinet members whose official ] duties would have made the strike an l issue in their departments Attorney General Daugherty and Postmaster Gen
 eral Hays were both out Of town dur ing the day, the latter having left word
 at his office that there would be no state ment relating to the strike before Mon- day.
 In view of the statement of recognized leaders of the railroad onio-S, that nc
 special consideration would be shown mail trains once the strike was in progress
 official Washington looked to post office department for the first defensive
 move. It was recalled today that the gov ernment had not been called on to meet organized interference with it's mail traf- 1 fic since President Cleveland's admins tration. During the most recent railroad labor troubles the switctmen's strike in
 the spring of 1s30, mail schedules were maintained and in other eases of disrup- tion of ordinary rail transportation, there has been invariably tacit understanding l if not q formal declaration that the pos; was inviolate.
 l Members of congress, outside of the I committees having to do with transpor- tation, and utilities, deplayed unusual in terest in the situation because, it was said of the prominence has been .giver throughout the present session to the pos. sihility of reduced freight rates

YEAST SOON BANISHES
 UGLY SKIN BLEMISHES

soluteiy essential to good health Modern cooking robs even our best foods of these all-important elements, and as a result we become rundown, siclSly, nervous and thin.
 Ironized Yeast contains highly concen- ! trated brewers yeast, which is far richer in Vitamines than baking yeast, and in addition contains organic or vegetable iron, the great blood-builder. So, if you are rundown, or if you suffer with humiliating skin blemishes, you owe it to
 yourself to try Iron;zed Yeast. Ironized Yeast Is pleasant to take,

ARE COMPLETING ARRANGE
 MENTs FOR STRIKE OF 10000 Continued From Paae One

all be on the same track going out, but there are many sidings and we don't have to come back together
 E. NJ. Jewell, head of the railway em- ployes' department, American Ferera- tion of Labor. which comprises the shop crafts-said that his men never would have been called out independently on
 3 question of wages alone. "They will
 fight to the last ditch, however, for their
 rules and for fair working conditions matters of principle-but the executive
 committees of the shop crafts were very
 much opposed to calling 8 strike on the
 wage question alone" he added.
 MT. Jewell indicated that final instruc- tions to the men under him might be
 layed until 'er the Pennsylvania Rail- road hearing before the labor hoard scheduled to conAnence October 20. at which time the board fay determine
 whether. the carriers have violated the boards order directing new election of shop crafts representative to nego- tiate working rules with the management The controversy. grew out of separate elections, which the board declared void Itordered new elections but they have not been held
 The shop crafts consider this case as fight against their right to negotiate WlIn the empowers over " WorklDS condl l tions and 5i1eir leaders expressed tht opinion they would prefer to strike or this question together with that of wage, l rather than on that of wages alone, MT 1 Jewell said
 ] Despite the iasisterce Of union official, l that the strike would para1Sze the trans 1 portation system of the. country, rail road officials st4adfaStiy maintained tha l they would be able to operate their lines l A majority of them in statements las night and today. seemed inclined to be 1 lieve that strike would not actually b. put into effect.
 Several took the attitude that a strik 1 would be strike against the governmen 1 and not against the railroads. Anon
 these was William Finley, president 0
 the Chicago and Northwestern Railway l who said:
 i The railroad men, if they strike, wi 1 be going against the law of the land an
 the orders of the United States Eailroa.
 Labor Board created by act of congress We have no controversy with ou 1 men. We are merely obeying the man l dates of the labor board, which, afte | proper hearings and due process of law
 ordered wages decreased. The men nov l refuse to obey the orders of the govern ]! ment as issued by the labor board.

When Taken With Iron in Convenient Tablet Form


 Everyone is now familiar with the splendid results brought about by yeast in treating such skin troubles as piEnples, boiis, black-heads, etc.
 But there were thousands of people who couldn't eat common baking yeast. due to it's disagreeable taste So it re- nafned to certain prominent scientists to find way in which yeast could be taken in pleasant and convenient tablet form. The result of their research is Ironized Yeast, which is now the approved vita mine tonic treatment
 People everywhere are now taking IroniZed Yeast, and the results reported are almost unbelievable. Not only is Ironized Yeast fine for clearing up the complexion; it brings equally remarkable results in treating thinnesS, low vitality nervousness. weakness. poor appetite and other symptoms of rundown conhition Even after the first few days people say they notice decidedly beneficial effects from Ironized Yeast.
 This is because Ironized Yeast is ricf in vitanlines which have been found ab.

 But Lorris was far from being a luna tic. On the contrary, he was about the sanest and shrewdest of them all. as he shortly proved by unsetting all their careful. crafty plans. HIS felEned Hines and insanity were cloaks behind which he carried on a little experiment of his own to insure the happiness and secur- ity of his daughter.
 How well he succeeded is shown in entertaining fashion in The Romance Promoters, tho Vitagraph comedy drama with Earl Williams, which will be shown at the Strand theater today and We'd uesday. The plot Is fresh, spontaneous and unusual to a degree.
