 "The shopcraft employees voted in June for a strike to establish a living wage and decent working conditions. The Association of Rail- way Executives have now voted for a lockout to smash unionism on the railroads and to eliminate collec- tive bargaining from the industry.
 "The men have been ready at all times to meet the association to bring about an honorable cettle- ment. We expressed our willingness to do so to the labor board in Chi cago. We accepted President Hard ing's terms of settlement of July 31. The association, however, have consistently and arrogantly blocked every move in the strike.

Failure to Stand Together BroughtP PoliticalDefeat To
 Won1en--Mrs. Edn7undson
By MIGNoN HALL

"Women did not stand behind wom- en in the last political fight. That's the reason women did not win out.
 'If women intend to make a power of themselves in politics, so that they can put across their splendid pro- grams for the benefit of women and children and the whole public, they are going to have to support and work for their own sex.
 "They must put up women candi- dates with platforms of needed re- forms; then cast aside every other feeling and see that they get to of flee.
 How can women convince men and the public that their sex will make good officers and good legisla- tors unless they are elected-and do hold office.
 Must Be Serious. "When men see that women take their votes and beliefs seriously so seriously that they will fight for their rights, and after men recognize that we are here to take part in the government, then everybody can get together and pick and choose be- tween men and women as to who will make the best office holders.' These are some of the things that Mrs. W. S. Edmundson. of Albany Decatur. defeated woman candidate for Congress from the Eighth dis trict, believes and will tell the League of Women voters today at a luncheon which will be given for her at the Hillman hotel by that organization. The hour is 12:30.

 Masculine Appeal.
 On the other hand, it is related that "shc was beaten by a masculine appeal which opponents were heard to make: Men, If you don't want me In office, I'll quit. I'll quit next time. But don't beat me with a woman"
 Speaking of this, Mrs. Edmundson declared that such appeals and argu- ment naturally should not be toler- ated by broad minded citizen; the

HARDING TO DECIDE ON DAM QUESTION

Washington, August 23-Secretary
 Weeks has askedPresidcnt Harding to
 decide whether the unexpended bal
 ance of an old appropriation by Con-
 gross, now totaling about $90o, 900.
 shall be made immediately available
 to army engineers Tor expenditure
 OH the Wilson Dam at Muscle Shoals. Alabama
 Favorable decision by the Presi-
 dent 1t was said. today would allow
 engineers to conduct operations at
 Muscle Shoals on a much larger scale
 than would be possible prior to Octo-
 Der 1. when the s7.500,0o0 appropria- ton recently authorized by Congress
 becomes available.
 Discovery that about $1.400.00 still
 remained as the unexpended balance
 of an appropriation authorized dur ing the Wilson administration for
 experiments and other phases of de- 1 velopment at Muscle Shoals, was | made recently by Colonel William
 Barden, army engineer in charge for the Muscle Shoals district. He there fore forwarded a request to Wash ington that the money be used to supplement the funds being used on
 the work for coffer dams In the Ten nessee river as the low water sea-
 son there presents favorable condi-
 tions now.
 At Hardfng's Disposal | Investigation of Colonel Barden's
 report by the war department offi- cials revealed that $500 900 of the
 $1, 400. 900 recently had been allotted
 by direction of President Harding
 to the Department of Agriculture for
 certain experimental work.
 Officials explained that inasmuch as the law placed the money at the disposal of the President, 1t could | only be diverted by his order to other usages. For that reason, il was explained. Secretary weeks | found it necessary to ask President
 Harding's permission before comply | ing with the recommendations or Colonel Barden.
 | Army engineers at Muscle Shoals now are operating under the unex- pended balance of another appro- | priation totaling only about $zS0,- | GOO. This sum. it was said. would not permit operations to be carried on as extensively as desired by en- csneers who want to make the most of the dry season this summer. With the increase of that sum by s90o.o0o' if was said. work could be extended, SO that 1t would be possible to com rlete during the summer the coffer dam construction so that 1t wouio he possible to put men in the coffer dams and continue work on the dam throughout the winter season.
