Washington, Aug. 24.-PTesident
Harding plans no further moves to
mediate the rail strike, despite the coll
lapse of peace negotiations between
railroad brotherhood leaders and As
socition Of Railway Executives in
New York, it was stated officially
here today.
The federal governments moves in
the menacing controversy all Will be
directed toward the carrying out of the
Presidents resolve as thus expressed
in his recent message to Congress;
II am resolved to use all the power
of government to maintain transpor-
tation and to sustain the right Of
men to work"
The prevailing opinion in Congress
and administration circles as the re-
suit of their rejection of the Brother
hoods peace proposal is that majority
of the rail executives want TO fight
the strike to a finish in the belief that
the power of the railroad unions can
be destroyed.
The one ray Of hope in the situation
today is the possibility OF separate
peace agreements by certain roads
with the strikers, some officials be-
lieving the strike could be ended
gradually in this manner. Just as the
coal walkout is now being terminated.
1t is probable that no new moves

inc the result of the NEGOTIATIONS IN
New York between the neads of few

Meanwhile. it will be more clearly
demonstrated within the next week
whether the roads will be able to pre-
vent a serious breakdown in trans
portation necessitating forceful in
tervention by the federal government
The government mas drawn plans

New York, Aug. 24.-The answer OF
the striking shopmcn TO the roads
challenge to finish fight, was con-
vevcd to certain carrier heads today.
Warren s. Stone and his fellow me-
diators were closeted this morning
with Bert NJ. Jewell shipments leader.
They told him of the carriers rejec-
tion of the suggestion that men return
to work with the status as OF June
3Oth. Jewell gave them his answer to
this, and the big Four" chiefs left
hurriedly and with as much secrecy
AS possible, for what they described as
''an unknown destination" 1t was
believed they were carrying the last
word from Jewell to some of the presi-
dents. if not to committee represent
ing the full meeting.
The brotherhood chiefs, headed by
Warren S. Stone, of the engineers, to-
dav carried the message of the execu-
tives to Bert NJ. Jewell, head of the
striking shopmen. Stone and Jewell
refused to state what further attempts
at mediation, if any. would be made;
eve have accepted tne challenge
Jewell said. referring to the roads
vote for a fat "no" on the seniority
proposals of the "big four" media
tors.

TO EXPAND ACTIVITIES

A decision to expand activities of
the Minnesota Co-operativev Creamer-
les Association was reached at a
meeting of directors, held in St. Paul
last week. The business of the as
ISOLATION has grown so rapidly that
the capacity of several departments,
especially that marketing butter must
be enlarged, according to A. j. Nc
CURE, general manager.
The number of member creameries
has reached 1854, an increase of 10 for
the month Of November. The associa-
tons does not owe a cent, other than
regular monthly bills. The financial
condition is such that it is possible to
expand in almost any direction de,
sired by the creameries.

gone to their graves during the past
year, according to Mr.. Henryson.
Zone of the most important ele-
ments in the fight against tubercu-
losis and other diseases" he stated,
"is the education Of the individual to
the dangers of disease, and the neces-
sity for early discovery and treat
ment.
"More, probably, than any one sim
gle agency, the Christmas Seal is re-
sponsible for the tremendous reduc-
ton in the tuberculosis death rate"
continued Mr.. Henryson. every year
from Thanksgiving to Christmas, the
Christmas Seals, small stamps which
are used to put the final touch on hol-
iday mail and packages, are sold
throughout the length and breadth OF
the nation. They are sold and used
in December, but they carry the mes
sage of health and hope throughout
the year"
"In Minnesota they give to parents,
free clinics for the examination OF
their children in, order to check di-
sease before disease gets hold on
the child;- tuberculosis clinics are
conducted for the adult; to the chill
dren direct they furnish the Health
Crusade, Crusade for a cleaner and
