TO STRIKE
WAGES ARE CUT

Chicago, June 81 (By the Associat-
ed Press).--A strike of the 100000
railway Shopmen of the country will
be called for July l unless the rail
roads agre to stay the $60,000,000
wage cut due the shopworkers on that
date and to restore certain working
conditions formerly in effect, it was
made known tonight through tele-
gram from b. NJ. Jewell, head of the
shop crafts, to the Association of
Railway Executives.
Decision to call a strike came late
today after a lengthy discussion by
the executive committee Of the six
shop crafts based on the strike vote
of hte men thus far tabulated.
Should the rail heads arrange an
immediate conference, agreeing mean
while to continue present wages, re-
store working rules modified by the
railroad labor board and discontinue
farming out railroad work, however,
a walkout can be halted, the tele-
gram said. Otherwise "a sanction of
withdraw from employment on July
l, 1922, as voted by the employees,
will be unavoidable"
The $500 word telegram addressed
to T. Dewitt Cuyier, chairman of the
Association of Railway Executives,
threw no light on the actual strike
vote beyond saying it was an "over-

were returnable until June 80. A
two-thirds majority is required by the
union bylaws to call a strike
Although the actual call for the
walkout was made dependent on the
railway executives reply to Prcsi-
dent JEWELS ultimatum, little eXpec-
tation was expressed in railroad
circles tonight that the executives
would agree to such sweeping de-
mands as those made by the unions.

If a Neighbor Has a Still

The travelling salesman on the train
declared that he was firm prohibi-
zionist, but told of having failed to
live up to his convictions in the mat
ter of reporting illicit distilling to the
police. 81 know, as a good citizen,
should inform against bootleggers, ,
he admitted, "but I'm just plain yel-
low."
Rev. A. q. Conrad of Boston recent
ly discussed the same point which dis
turbed the conscience of the Nebras-
kan, and while he did not say outright
what he would do if neighbor should
engage in the illicit enterprise, he an.
swered the question from theoretical
standpoint.
"Is it honorable to act as an in.
former if you know a neighbor is op.
Grating still ?" he asked in his Sun.
day night sermon. Perhaps not ar
honor, but certainly duty, was his
conclusion. "You can not leave it to
policeman" said DR.. Conrad, "when
man is committing murder. You
must interfere at once. And when the
constitution is being violated, you
must tell the proper authorities"

exactly this position And yet h.
confessed that he could not bring him
self to practice it. Partly perhaps i;
was of a dislike of notorety, fear of
revenge, or being misrepresented l.,

Tax on Gasoline
Brings in Money

A total of $72,27s.62 was collected
from the gasoline tax in May, ac
cording to figures announced by the
tax commission yesterday. This total
with the collections for March and
April brings the grand total t. date TO
$214,OO0, in round numbers. In March
the tax collected was $4,000, approx

$4,000.
Under the terms of the act one-half
of the amount goes TO the general

half gallon warm water, one gallon
molasses. / first tried applying 1t
with a quart bottle with a slot cut in
the stopper but found this too slow. I
then tried mop on stick and found
this entirely satisfactory as you can
reach the bud more easily. One man

These funds must be matched by
the states and will be administered
subject to the general provisions al
ready in force. The new legislation
reduces the maximum participation
on the part of the government from
$4,000 to $16,250 per mile for roads
constructed with the appropriation
for the next fiscal year and $4,000
per mile thereafter. Bridges over 20
feet in span may be considered as
separate projects to which this limi-
tation does not apply. In states where
more than per cent of the area is
unappropriated public land provision
is made for an increase in the amount
per mile. The act also provides for
The extension of federal aid to the
construction of structures required
for the elimination of railroad grade
crossings.
Important provisions of previous
acts under which large funds have
been successfully administered are
applicable to the new funds. States
must maintain adequate highway de-
partments. Funds to match federal
aid must be placed under the direct
control of the state highway depart
ment. The type of surface construc-
ed must be adequate for the traffic
anticipated, with reasonable grades
curves and other features. States
must obligate themselves to maintain
all federal aid roads constructed, and
in case this is not done any federal
funds available for new projects may
be withheld until they are put into
satisfactory condition. All federal aid
funds must be spent on connected
system of roa9ds consisting of not
more than per cent of the tota
mileage in each state and divided into
primary or interstate roads and sec.
ondary or intercounty roads.-The

BILL PASSED FOR APPROPRIATION
- FOR WORK ON WILSON DAM

Washington, June 28.-Action by
congress in appropriating $7,50O,OOO
for work on Wilson Dam means that
the completion of Muscle Shoals de-
velopment now is certainty" So
Representative Almon, of Alabama
in whose district the Shoals is located
declared today in statement.
Washington, June 27.-President
Harding's signature was all that was
required tonight for authorizing the
appropriation of $7,50O,OOO for new
work on the Wilson dam at Muscle
Shoals. The army bill containing au-
thority Of congress to spend the
money on that project, effective Oc-
tober l., next, was passed today by
the senate without a change in the
language already approved by the
house and by conferees of the two
legislative bodies.
During final senate consideration,
however, the measure at certain
stages was threatened with being
sent back to the house for further
conference, Senator Norris of Ne
braska, chairman of the agriculture
committee, moving that the senate
disagree with the house provision de-
laying expenditure of the money until
October. He was finally overruled by
vote of 20 to SO.
The Nebraska senator led the at
tack on the house amendment and
was joined by Senator Wadsworth of
New York, chairman of the military
committee in charge of the bill, and
by Senator Underwood of Alabama,
Democratic leader, in declaring the
house action unfortunate The lat
ter two senators, however, differed
with Senator Norris on his motion
to disagree, declaring that, if it pre-
vailed, the bill would be returned to
the house and the appropriation prob
ably would be jeopardized in this
procedure.
Others, including Senator Glass
(Democrat) of Virginia, Heflin
(Dem-ocrat) of Alabama and Smith
(Democrat) of South Carolina, sup
ported Senator Underwood in re-
questing concurrence in the house
amendment in order to make the ap-
preparation certain. Senator Under
wood recalled past occurrences where
differences between the senate and
house had resulted idisastrously to
Muscle Shoals appropriations and re-
minded his colleagues that the army
bill has to be on the statute books by
July 1, and that they had no time to
lose in adjusting differences in Ian
guage, however unfortunate they
might appear to the senate.
The first executive meeting of the
agriculture committee since it con-
cluded it's examination of proposals
from Henry Ford, the Alabama Pow
er Company, Frederick Engstrum and
Charles L. Parsons for developing the
shoals properties also was held today.
Senator Norris was understood to
have informed the committee that he
would submit report to the senate

members with reference to tLeir opin-
ions of offers considered
