StabiIizing the Wheat Price

Price of wheat would fall below 81 % bushel
or above $150 if the grain market were stabilized
by government fund of S100,000000. So claims Arthur

board of trade.
The fund, according to Roberts suggestion would be

Photograph Reveals

Los Angeles, July 5.-The police
today admitted their bewilderment
over a photograph taken more than
two months ago, in Topanga canyon,
Is miles from here, which upon de.
velopment Monday night revealed
the body of woman, partly cop-
cealed by brush.
B. w. Anderson, who took the pic
ture, intending it to be merely that
of two friends, declared none of the
three had seen the body at the time
the photograph was taken.
Anderson delayed developing the
film for two months. When develop
,ment apparently showed the dead
woman in the foreground, he hurried
to the police. The latter made two
visits to the spot, without results. ex-
cept to learn the topography had been
slightly changed by.a landslide since

Union Pacific system officials have

Those who fail to return within this

Notices to this effect are to be

in other conspicuous places. The
Burlington railroad has issued a
similar edict, effective July 10.

"The men knew the sacrifices they
we're making >when they went out"
was the comment of SB. H. Furse,
president of the system federation.
Given Till 3 Saturday.
1.-THE order indicates that the
Union Pacific is in great need Of
men," said Joseph B. Watley, secre-
tary of the federated shopcrafts. ""The
men have shown no inclination to
drift back to Omaha"
The notice, directed to former
employees" reads:
"All men who have left the service
OF this company in protest against
the decision of the United States
Railway board must return to duty

not later than 3 o'clock p. m. on

Hopes for EARLY
End of Railroad
Strike Expressed
Union Leader Says Men Ready
to Confer With Anybody .
Authorized to Bring
Peace Proposals.

Chicago, July 5.-(By A. P.)-
Hope for the speedy settlement OF
the countrywide strike of the rail-
way shopmen was seen tonight in
statements issued by Ben w. Hooper,
chairman of the United States rail-
road labor board and B. M. Jewell.
leader of the shopcrafts, who ordered
the walkout.
In reply to a. letter from Mr..
Hooper, which was regarded as con-
ciliatory in tone, Mr.. Jewell declared
that the strikers were willing to con-
slider any negotiations with anyone in
authority for settlement of the strike.
1--WE are willing to confer with any,
body authorized by the railroads to
bring peace proposals to u.s." said
Mr.. Jewell. II include or exclude
nobody, but if the labor board, for
instance. came to us with a definite
proposition, we would not hesitate to
consider it."
Way Cleared for Settlement.
In railroad circles it was declared
that the way had already been cleared
for full settlement on the gravest
issues-that of contract work-by
the agreement of II roads to abolish
outside contracting, at the labor
board meeting last Friday, when Mr..
Jewell ignored an order to appear and
explain his strike order.
Mr.. Jewell said that the interven
ton of the board had come too late
and that the only way to prevent dis
orders was for him virtually to defy
the board and thus let the rank and
file of the six shopcrafts organiza-
tions involved know that their leaders
had their hands on the brakes and
were in full control of the situation.
He said that so far, he had received
no overtures looking toward set
tlement and had made none. He ad-
ed that the strike vote was the most
representative ever taken.
Charges Denied.
Mr.. Hooper, in his letter to Jewell
early in the day, denied the latter's
charge that the labor board was un-
friendly to the employees or that it
had "outlawed" the strikers.
1T has only accepted your own
statement that the striking men are
not now employees of the carriers
the letter said. 1T has not, however,
used the rasping word outlaw at any
time"
Mr.. Jewell declared that his state
ment was in the nature of an explain
alton of labor's side of the situation
and that he was not receding from
any of the original, demands made
upon the railroads. The statement
was interpreted in railway circles,
however, as clearing a way to a set
tlement by negotiation, the previous
being that Mr.. Jewell
would refuse to deal with the labor
board and would insist on negotia-
tions direct with the carriers.
A settlement along these lines,
however, was made difficult because
Of the roads insistence that they had
no part in the dispute, declaring it
was entirely a matter between the
government and the strikers, as the
walkout was directed against a de-
cision of the board.

Osmond, Neb,. July s.-(Speeial
Telcgram.) - Congressman A. w.
Jefferis, candidates for the republican
nomination for the United States SEN
ate spoke here yesterday. II was as
the principal speaker at Pierce coun-
tvs Independence day celebration
and political discussion was adjourn
ed. The address, however, gave the
large crowd insight into the animat-
ing principles Of Mr.. Jefferis. His
plea was for less intolerance and
more OF the spirit OF give and take.
America" he said, lis a miracle
in the welding OF SO many races into
one. We cannot look at the extent
and diversity OF our nation without
realizing the need for moderation in
our thoughts.
I'VE have succeeded as we have
clung to the faith OF the fathers of
the republic. Things have changed
and new needs have arisen, but today
the spirit of give and take is more
necessary than ever before. Each
section OF this country and each class
within it must realize that there is a
great diversity of needs and inter-
csts, and that these should be co-or-
dinated, instead of being brought
into conflict"

Coal Situation
Hinges on Meeting g
With President
Harding Will Make Final At
tempt to Settle Walkout
of Bituminous Miners
Next Monday.

Washington. July 5.-While settle
ment of the bituminous coal strike
appeared to night to hinge on the
meeting the operators and miners are
expected to have with President
Harding next Monday, another con-
ference of the parties to the anthra-
cite situation will be held tomor-
row. 1t was expected that Secretary
Fall would again meet with the min
ers' union officials and mine owners
representatives, but the impression
was that the session might be in
conclusive, with the result that any
action would be held up pending
the outcome OF the bituminous ses-
sions.
S. D. Warmer, chairman of the
general committee of anthracite min
ers, and Philip Murray, president of
the United Mine Workers of Ameri-
ca, led the respective delegations
which met Saturday, empowered to
make wage settlement, and are ex-
pected to do so again tomorrow. All
indications were that the union con-
tingent would offer to negotiate a
new wage contract on the general
basis of scales existing March 81,
while the operators, asking a reduc-
tion of wages, would tender arbi-
tration at the basis Of President
Harding as a means of settling diff
ferences.
The bitulninous coal conferees
adjourned until Monday, have mere
~ powers to suggest action to their
associates in the mining districts and
the unions, and so far have definitely
failed to agree on anything for the
purpose.
President Harding, on his return
Saturday. will be given full reports
from Secretaries Hoover and Davis
on what has transpired in the execu-
tive gatherings. Further government
action, it was assumed, will be de-
termined after the information thus
assembled has been digested.

ment is meeting with approval from
those who have opposed the reap
