WESTERN ROADS
 WILL ORGANIZE C0MP ANY UNIONS

Chicago, July 25 - Western rail- roads, 1t was expected today, will fol- low the example of Eastern lines and begin the organization of "company unions" to replace the organizations of shopmen who are on strike. The
 movement for formation of "com- pany unions" is believed to indicate the roads are preparing for a pro longed fight and have no intention of yielding to the demands of the strik- erS
 The doorway to the formation of company organizations was held open, it was pointed out today by the recent resolution of the United States railroad labor board "outlaw- ing" the striking shopmen. The board has announced it will recognize employees of any road if the organiza- tion represents a majority of the shopmen working on that road.
 B. M. Jewell. leader of the strikers, was scornful of the success of the movement to form new unions of shopmen now at work. 'Just ask Sam Gompers how long it will be be- fore the American Federation of Labor will issue charters to these unions they are talking about" Jewell said.
 Although no one in authority would comment upon that phase of the question, it was reported that the resolution of the labor board "out- laying the striking shopmen had arisen as one of the chief obstacles to settlement of the strike.
 Chairman Ben w. Hooper of the labor board, reiterated today hIs stat tement that the board has no plans on foot for settlement of the strike. It was reported. but not officially con firmed, however, that Hooper and Jewell were in secret conferences yes terday. Neither Hooper nor Jewell denied the report.
 Further curtailment of traffic as result of the strike was reported to- day in the announcement of several roads of discontinuance Of trains.
 It was announced that in North Dakota, three days a week service 1 would be inaugurated on several l branch lines, auto trucks being used on intervening days 10 transport | mails.
 E. H. Fitzgerald, grand president l of the Brotherhood of Railway l Clerks, was to hold a meeting here | today with the general chairman of 1 his organization.

Hoover Plan Considered By Cabinet
Suggests Control of Coal Prices by Moral Sua- sion, Exercised by Fed eral Authorities.

Washington, July 25-The govern mentS plan, evolved by Herbert Hoo yer and legally "O.K.'d" by Attorney General Dougherty, as laid before the Cabinet briefly calls for the appoint ment by President Harding of a Pres idential cvommittee which will vir- tually constitute a coal and transpor- tation priority of commerce, justice and interior and will operate under the general supervision of the Inter- state Commerce Commission. It will determine where the need is gravest and who shall get the coal.
 Supplementing his Presidential committee will be an administrative committee, composed of representa- lives of the government, the railroads and coal operators, and upon this committee will devolve the duty of getting the coal to its proper dest1n- ation. Both organizations will func- ton under the direction of the In terstate Commerce Commission, which Transportation Act of 1920.
 In each coal producing district government representative will be ap- pointed as well as a committee of producing coal operators, and these will cooperate to insure the speedy production and dispatch of shipments.
 Prices will be governed by the officials concerned with the and by the absolute power the government can wield over the all location of cars to the mine owners, the theory being that recalcitrant op- orators will be disciplined by the all lotment of cars.
 Generally speaking, it was said to- day, prices will be maintained on a level approximat3ng those prevailing June l last.

 Harding in Personal Charge.
 Washington, July 25-A growing impression that the administration was rapidly approaching a point in its attitude toward the rail strike where decisive move to arrest the resulting breakdown in the transpor- tation might be looked for, raised some expectation Of important devel- opments at today's cabinet meeting. President Harding who was declared by cabinet members prior to the meeting to be in personal charge of the question. is understood to have received the opinion from some of his advisors that the government can permit the disruption of transporta- ton to go no further. There was no indication, however, or the manner in which the transportation crisis might be laid before the cabinet session.
 With reports indicating the strong " oppressive effect of the strike on the nations business revival some advisers are known to hold the view that the railroad rep reSentatives should be called upon to make every effort to restore inter state commerce They believe the roads should even abandon, if neces- sary, their stand against restoration of seniority rights 10 striking snor- men, demanded by them among other conditions precedent to a resumption 'f work and now forming, it is said he crux of the whole strike question.

 am confident I shall not lose this one," he states in campaign speeches.
 Breckinridge Long, his opponent, thard assistant secretary of state in the Wilson administration, likewise, is every bit as confident of victory, and says the Democrats of Missouri will reassert their confidence in the leadership of Woodrow Wilson and his policies'-Long's platform.
 Reed has been denying vigorously, before his campaign audiences, charges of irregularity made against but have been the real Democrat ali along" he emphasizes. "A rubber stamp Senator is not a representative Of the people"
 Only fnfrequentiy has Reed referred to the letters MT. Wilson sent into Missouri, urging his defeat. one of which denounced the Senator as a missed this phase of opposition with the assertion "I have never fought the president" and advising his audi ences not to allow "outsiders'' to tell them how to vote.
 Large groups of women voters have been wagtng a crusade against the Senator for his opposition to suffrage and the maternity bill; while certain other groups of women have rallied to his support The drys are fighting him vigorously.
 The Long forces have been em- phatic in denying Reeds assertion that he did not fight Wilson.
 Contradicting Reeds protesta tions or party regularity, the Long forces declare we went to Wisconsin in 1920 and campaigned for James Thomp- son for the United States Senate de- scribed as a La Toilette independent. Reed answers this by saying his ac- tiv1ties in Wisconsin were inspired by Q desire to defeat Senator Lenroot, lican. after it was certain" Paul S. Reinsch. the Democratic nominee, could not be elected.
 Roth Long and Reed have been conducting energetic campaigns, and both have been drawing large crowds Robert I. Young of St. Joseph, also is a candidate, but he is not conduct ing an active campaign.
