LINER OLAV NARROWLY
EVADES TITANIC FATE
Vessel Veers Course in Time
to Clear Iceberg.

A giant iceberg, more than 15o feet
above the water line and about 400 feet
wide, was encountered off the Grand
Banks last Saturday afternoon by the
Scandinavian American liner HclIig
Olsv. which arrived here yesterday
with s42 passengers from Copenhagen.
According 10 Capt. Louis +. PerIonard
and the passengers. the ship was travel
ing through heavy fog on Friday
night. and when the fog lifted on Sat
urday morning the iceberg loomed dead
ahead Of the ship. The HellIg olav
was travelling at greatly reduced speed
due TO the fog. and this Is believed to
have prevented a disasterv similar 70
that when the Titanic struck an iceberg
and sank in 1912.
The captain OF the ship hastily
changed his course and circled the Ice
berg, giving the giant ice mountain a
wide berth. Instead Of 3cing alarmed
at the proximity of serious danger the
passengers hurried TO their staterooms
and got their cameras to take snapshots
OF the unusual sight. The captain stated
that he had had no reports Of ice In
the vicinity.

Special Dispatch TO THE New YORK HERALD.
OEDAR RAPIDS. Aug. 21.-L.
Z. Sheppard. president Of the
Order of Railway Conduc-
tors. left here tonight for New
York to attend the meeting Wednes-
day between the brotherhood chiefs
and railroad executives with the
belief that the meeting would bring
the shopmen's strike to an end.
He declined to give the basis for
his belief. except TO say that three
propositions would be considered,
which he expected to bring results.
He said the question of seniority
was Still the big issue. but that
each side would make concessions
as to minor details. and he hoped
for an agreement on all questions.
The brotherhoods are using their
good offices to end the trouble, and
if they do not succeed Wednesday
1t will be a fight to a finish," Mr..
Sheppard said.
"The great trouble has been that
each side thought 1t had the other
licked" he added.

@HICAGO, Aug. 21.-President
4 Harding has written the fol-
lowing letter to the Illinois
Chamber of Commerce.:
Il have your telegram OF August
10, and note with genuine interest
the activities of your association to
see that Justice Is done In William
son county. was not aware of the
activities which are under way to
reestablish justice in that COM
munity. had only the public view
Of horrible crime, which has thus
far been ignored. 1t is a gratifying
thing to know that there is deter
mination that justice shall be done.
1t was extremely necessary to re-
fer to the affair in my address to
the Congress, because the general
public did not seem to know that
the Federal Government was pow
erless to act in the matter. and 1t
was unbearable to have a wide
spread impression that the Federal
Government was willingly or pur-
posely ignoring that inexcusabie
crime.
There is, Of course, conscience
in Illinois which will not tolerate
such a disgraceful thing. 1t will be
very pleasing to me and reassurlng
to the whole country to know that
this conscience is finding express
sion."

Peace Talk Hurts Recruiting.

TT was expected that the ratio OF
Increase OF August II would be con-
tinued on the 18th. but the occurrences
OF last week put a damper on recruit
ing"
One OF the other executives said that
II the roads yielded on seniority they
would become as much outlaw" as
the strikers. because the railway labor
board has ruled that men who strike
forfeit their seniority. The shopmen
struck In defiance OF the labor board
This official continued:
such step IN beyond the bounds
OF probabilities. Labor reasons that
the roads should yield SO that the crops
may move and the coal shipments speed
IN before winter sets In. They are
relying on economic pressure to over
ride and bear down a civic struggle
that should be fought TO a conclusion
over whether the roads and the public
are entitled to the protection of the law
and it's arm. or whether the protective
needs OF unionism should prevail and
these laws and institutions be wiped out
Of existence"
The executives association received
a telegram from Senator Borah Idaho)
urging settlement OF the strike on be-
half Of the Western farmers. r. De Witt
Cuyler. chairman OF the association. did
not get the message in time TO reply
last night.

Other Possible RevoIters.

There are other Senators who may
vote against the measure II the ratss
are not cut. among them Senators Nell
son (Minn.). who condemned many OF
the schedules during the debate Kellogg
tMinn.), who fought some items, AM
Moses IN. H.. who branded the meas
ure an economic bludgeon."
But In the Senate as we'll as in the
House the disposition is to walt until ;hc
conference gets through. so there may
be an opportunity to see what rates
finally are decided upon. The word that
there may be considerable opposition -
the bill IL II Is as bad as at present
will be carried to the conferees, tn.
majority of whom, of course. are hlg
protectionists and disposed to go ahead
with their extreme theories to the fullest
extent.
Representative Fordney is of the
opinion tlhat the bill will not be In con-
ference more than three weeks. He
called attention to-day TO the fact that
the Payne -Aldrich bill was In conference
no longer than that. and said there WAS
no reason the Fordney-McCumber bill
should require more time.
Mr.. Fordney's ability as a legislative
foreca ster, however. Is open TO dispute.
Ii will be recalled that he predicted
months ago, when the bonus issue cama
up. that II would be n law within ten
days. This was In February last.
