GERMANY ASKS MORE TIME ON BIG DEBT
Jeweu Suggests Conference of
Executives and Craft Leaders
For Discussion of Peace Terms

CHICAGO definite reply to the
shopmen's strike settlement proposals
were given Chairman Hooper of the
railroad labor board by representatives
Of the railway executives at noon day
conference today. The executives said
they would notify Mr. Hooper of their
answer "later."
Chairman Hooper said his chief pur.
pose in meeting with the executives
was to arrange a conference between
them and B. NJ. Jewell leader of the
striking shopmen, and he indicated that
the attitude OF the executives was dis,
appointing.
b. NJ Jewell, head OF the railway EN-.
ployes department Of the American
Federation OF Labor, commenting on
President Hardings proclamation said
the way TO end the strike was to call
conference OF railroad executives and
shop crafts leaders.
Neither Mr.. Jewell nor Chairman
Hooper of the labor board indicated
a tendency to yield much from their
position. Chairman Hooper made it
plain that striking shopmen could come
before the labor board only in accor.
dance with the transportation act and
that they must go back to their jobs
before they could expect consideration
Tentative proposals considered IN
the peace conferences included the
following:
That the railroads abolish the con
tract system or farming out work to
contractors.
