Optimistic Tone Continues,
Despite Alarming Reports

CHICAGO, July 13.-While new
developments of the strike of the
100000 railroad shopmen bear few
surface indications that peace is
imminent. there is an undercurrent
of optimism in some railroad circles
here which even discounts such
factors as the refusal of railroad
executives to confer with striking
employees and reports from Detroit
of serious threats Of an outlaw
strike by the maintenance of way
men.
Impartial observers have ex-
pressed the belief that heads of both
railroad and shop crafts unions, in
spite of the present deadlock. would
be willing to concede certain points
to end the strike IL this end could
be attained without a sacrifice Of
face or repudiation of their respec-
tive positions. Both sides would
be Influenced by financial reasons,
1t was said.
Railway Labor Board, continued to-
day his personal efforts towards
bringing the opposing sides to-
gether.
Early in the day Hooper ex-
pressed great disappointment oyer
the refusal of regional chairmen OF
the railroad executives to neeo-
tiate with the strikers under pres
ent conditions" But after another
conference with several representa-
tives Of the carriers, Hooper said
he felt more encouraged.
The board is taking no Official
part in the peace efforts, as il has
declared the striking shopmen to be
outlawed from its Jurisdiction. But
II Is felt that Hooper, in his per-
sistent personal efforts toward a
settlement has something stronger
and more definite to proceed ON
than mere personal desire,
Both the telegram of union heads
to President Harding today and. to
some extent. even the rejection OF
Hooper's proposals by the carriers
indicated that the eventual attain
ment OF an agreement is by no
means hopeless, and carried modie~
cations Of the original attitude ~

BELIEVES IN PEACE

Business ORGANIZATIONS of the coun-

the board of directors of the Cham

States to take such leadership as
will crystalline public sentiment In
uph olding President Harding In the
exercise of his authority for the
maintenance of uninterrupted rail-

At the same time the board COM
mended President Harding's state
ment making clear the issues in
volved in the strike. and urged the
admi Illustration to use all the power
of the agencies of the government
to the end that the supremacy of
the law be maintained.
President Harding was informed
of the action OF the board in a let
ter written by Julius II. Barnes. OF
Duluth. president of the chamber.
Mr.. Barnes was named. with Harry
A. Wheeler. of Chicago. to deliver
the letter to the President.
Text of Declaration.
The declaration of the board, as
set forth in the letter 10 the Presi-
dent. follows:
The board Of directors of the
Chamber OF Commerce of the United
States commends the statement Of
President Harding making clear the
issues involved In the railroad shop
crafts strike. We believe in the
peaceful settlement of controversies
and due respect for agencies estab-
lished by law or mutual agreement
for securing just and impartial de-
cisions. We believe in the compli-
ance with such decisions by both
parties and that the public will
trust decisions So arrived at as gen
orally fair and accord them the sup
port of public opinion.
This strike OF a section of rail-
road employees Is against a decision
of the governments own agency.
Continuously in Session.
That agency is continuously in
session to carefully consider and
fairly decide in the public interest
controversies between railroad
management and their employees re-
lating to wages and salaries or
working conditions.
The attempt OF the striking rail-
road employees to enforce their own
views through methods of indus
trial war should meet the condem-
nation OF all who believe in orderly
processes OF settlement.
This country is slowly emerging
from a period of unemployment and
severe business depression, and
cannot patiently view any unlaw-
full interference with its transporta-
tion facilities. retarding its indus
trial recovery.
President Is Commended
We commend the President for
his determination to maintain the
supremacy Of the law. and we urge
the administration TO use all the
power of the agencies of the gov
ernment to that end.
We call upon the business or
ganizations of the country to take
such leadership as shall crystalline
public sentiment in upholding the
President in the exercise OF his au-
thority for the maintenance of un-
Interrupted railroad transportation
and for such local protection and
community public order as will Sc
cure every man his right to work

"Ive put Tanlac to the test four
times right in my own family and it
hasn't failed me once" declared Mr.
Gingras. My wife, my son and my
daughter, as well as myself, have all
been built up from half-Sick. run
down, worn-out set of people into a

Take, for instance, the case OF John
Widner, 1871 Roosevelt Ave-, Los An
geles, Calf, who says: My wife, my
self and little boy are now as healthy,
happy family as you will ever see
and it's all due to Tanlac"
Or that of Mrs. John Marquis and
her family of sixteen living in Man
chester, n. H., at 292 Belmont ST,
She says: 'Tanlac has been the only
medicine used in our house for two
years and it has kept every one of the
sixteen here in the best of health"
In Chicago, Frank r. Richards, of
AL South Wood St, writes: 1--WE will
never be without Tanlac in our house
after the remarkable way it has built
up my wife, my son and myself to
where we are the very picture of
health"

ones peace of mind. Here, again, the
fur-collared wrap courts favor.
The new fur collars are ever So
f1attering, and they are fashioned to
come up high about the throat.
Caracul and gray squirrel are the
selected summer furs for these col
lars, with perhaps a greater number
of the former. This predilection for
cocoa -colored caracul comes about be-
cause of the popularity of cloth wraps
in the lighter shell brown and toast
shades.
There is a fancy to use gray fur on
rust or henna cloth. This combina-
tion is wonderfully effective. Often
the tones are carried out by embroider-

AS to fringe, it is coming in stronger
than ever, and especially as trim
ming on the new capes. This season
it is of exaggerated depth and finds
lavish placement on the garment. 1t

the hand-tied fringe is favored.
The idea of tying strands at inter-
walls over the skirt of the blouse cape

very effective results are obtained with
a minimum use of the silk

There are more ways than one to

they do, perhaps, suggest ''the we'd

age of motoring. Then, too. cool
