under the jurisdiction of the United
States Railroad Labor board or sub
ject to application of the transporta-
ton act.
"In addition to the necessity of up-
holding the labor board and maintaining
the pledges made by the railroads to
the men now at work. there is the
practical effect upon the supervisory
officers of a violation of the pledges
they were authorized to make. Their
disbursement and decentralization
would be far more disastrous than this
or any other strike. Much harm has
already been done by repeated publ
cation of rumors in recent days. that
the loyal men and the new men are to
be sacrificed to the strikers. This has
discouraged new men from accepting
employment in as great numbers as
would come forward if certain
pledges given would be fulfilled. Such
published rumors only delay the com
plete collapse of the strike.
SIN view of the above, it is submit
ted that the striking former employees
cannot be given preference to employees
at present in the service. without doing
violence to every principle Of right and
Justice involved in this matter and
without the grossest breach of faith on
the part of railroads to the men at
present in their service. Under these
circumstance it becomes apparent that
the railroads cannot consider any set
tlement of the present strike which
does not provide protection in their
present employment, both to the loyal
employees who remained in the service
and to the new employees entering it"

Tuesday converted Rome into a virtual

ure against possible disorders incident
to the general strike called in protest
against recent Fascist reprisals
against communists. The police and
military measures adopted by the gov

was believed the effectiveness of the
strike will be considerably minimized.
The headquarters of the postal and
telegraph services. the chamber of
deputies, the senators and all minis
tries and banks were occupied by mill
tary. and other strateglcal points
throughout the city were held by strong
detachments of foot and mounted
troops. armed with machine guns. A
number of armored cars patrolled the
streets.
Special police and military services
were established for the protection of
the Vatican and the residences OF the
cardinals and papal diplomatic repre-
sentatives. The general strike was
proclaimed by the secret committee of
action. 1t is designed, according to the
proclamation. to prevent workers
from being thrown from a state of rel
alive liberty into a state of absolute
slavery"
The Fascist have been ordered to
keep themselves on a war footing and
to remain in their barracks ready for
action.

and employe upon which it was

A summary of the reply made by
railroad executives to President Hard
ing rejecting his basis for settlement
of the rail strike was made public late
Tuesday by an authorized spokesman
for the conferences.
Replying to the first proposal. the
road heads informed the White House
that they did and would abide by wage
decisions of the railroad labor board,
but that they did not consider that to
test the legality Of such decisions was
to violate them.
Seniority Plan impossible"
Turning to the second proposal. the
executives said they were willing to
withdraw lawsuits arising from the
strike, providing conditions were estab-
lished so they could be assured of car
rying OF their operations without legal
protection.
Impossible" said the executives of
the third proposition to put strikers

day as the representative of Presi-

ministration considered that the issue
of the authority of the railroad labor
board far transcribed that of seniority.
The reply to President Harding was
put on the wire to the White House as
soon as it had been drawn up By a sub
committee headed by Robert s. Lovett
Of the Union Pacific and approved
unanimously by the general conference.
The proposals conditionally accept

FRANCE IS UNMOvED
BY GERMANPLEAOF
INABILITY TO PAY
Drastic Action Threatened as
Teutons Say They Cannot
Remit on Old Debts.

Berlin, Aug. 1.-(By The Associated
Press.)-The German reply to the
French note regarding payment by
Germany to the allied clearing house on
account of debts contracted by Ger
man nationals with allied citizens prior
to the war was telegraphed to Paris
Monday night for presentation to the
French government Tuesday. The note
reasserts that Germany finds it impos-
sible to continue the monthly payment
of 2.OOO.O 900 pounds sterling.
The argument is made that the rep
arations transactions and the clearing
house process constitute one indivisible
whole and that the German financial
situation makes it impossible for the
government to continue payments
either on account of reparations or to
the clearing house under present condi-
tons.
The note. furthermore. is under
stood to argue that German payments
to the claring house should not be
made until the German private claims
on German sequestrated property had
been settled. The German standpoint
is that the whole question must be
settled Jointly Dy all Inc governments.
Germany also protests against what
it terms the pre-emptory and dicta-
%torial' policy Of the French govern
ment. the note saying that a world
catastrophe is inevitable if under the
present entente policy. conditions in
Germany continue to develop as at
present.
Paris. Aug. 1.-France will impose
penalties of an economic and financial
character upon Germany because of
her refusal TO continue payments on
the debts contracted by her nationals
with allied nationals before the war. it
was said in official circles here Tues
day.
The time limit set by France will
expire next Monday.
The exact nature of the penalties
intended to be applied could not be
learned in official quarters. 1t was ex-
planned. however, that no military &C
ton was contemplated.
The view was expressed that the
payments which are being made to
German nationalists by French citizens
in connection with business dealings
arranged before the war will be
stopped. in view of Germany's action.

DUNDEE TO MEET
PEPPER MARTIN

NEW YORK, Aug 2s.-In all his
dozen years of ring activity, John
ny Dundee, junior lightweight
champion and recognized in this
state as the world fea.herweight
title holder. has been knocked out
but once, taking the full count in
a Philadelphia ring several years
ago after being sent to the canvas
in the first round by the right hand
of Willie Jackson. lightweight.
Dundee has never been able to
even that score although he has en-
gagged jackson on numerous occas-
ions. Now, since he knocked out
Danny Frush, the Cleveland feath-
erweight, Dundee believes that he
has developed a sharp Telling punch
that might floor Jackson for ten
seconds So he has signed arti-
Giles to meet Jackson in a 15-round
encounter in Brooklyn September
Tonight in the ring at the New
York Velodrome, Dundee will de-
fend his 130-pound title against
Vincent C"Pepper'O Martin OF
Brooklyn in 15rounds. Martin rose
to prominence as a featherweight
by dropping Babe Herman of Los
Angeles in the first round of a
match in Madison Square Garden.
He is a wild. tearing-in type Of pugi
list, carrying a dangerous sweeping
punch with both fists. But Dundee
the veteran, has been knocked out
but once.
