that month the railway executives
asked TINT the national working agree.
mcnts Ne ubrognted. the railroad
brotherho0ds appealed to President
Wilson 20 prevent wnge reductions but
he refused TO interfere. BY order OF
the railway labor board some Of the
working agreements were terminated
on July ! and wage cut averaging II
per cent was put into effect. The rail
ways later announced they would ask
further wage cuts. The membership
Of the brOtherhoods decided by vote
that strike should be called on 0cto-
Der 80, but nine allied unions refused
to support such strike, and on an
nouncement by the board that 1t would
not consider wage cut requests until
all working rule questions had been
decided the strike order was Cancelled.
on December the board reconstructed
the working rules so that the open
shop principle was recognized.
In the packing industry there was
wage reduction In March and strike
was narrowly averted. In September
the large packing plants installed the
shop representation system and in No
vember, under this plan, the employees
consented to further reduction Of 10
per cent. The meat cutters repudiated
this and called a strike on Dec. 8.
There were many minor strikes,
most of them short lived. Samuel
Gompers was reelected president of
the American Federation of Labor
which held Its convention In Denver
In June.
Great Britains coal miners went on
strike on March / and for nearly four
months the nations industries were
near collapse. The rail and transport
workers refused to go out and the
government would not yield to the
demands that the mines be national

on June % without having gained
much.

all lines there was activity and pros
perity, and international contests

NATIONAL LEGISLATION

Not great deal of legislation was
passed by the Republican congress
during the last two months of Presl-
dent Wilson's administration. The
President vetoed the bill to revive the
War Finance corporation on January
2, and congress promptly repassed 1t,
On January II, 100000 was appro-
priated for enforcement Of prohibition.
The house decided, on January 10, that
Its membership should not be in
creased. After much debate congress
set the limit Of the regular army at
175,000 men, Mr.. Wilson vetoed the
measure, but 1t was passed over his
Veto On February 20 the President
signed the Winslow bill, making avail
able to the railroads $370,000,0O0 from
the government guarantee fund.
President Harding called congress
In extra session on April IL and nearly
all the rest Of the year II was busy
with the task Of redeeming the pledges
Of the Republican party, with what
success must be left to individual
judgment. Among the first bills passed
were emergency tariff and immigra-
ton acts; a new army bill cutting the
army down to 10000; and the budget
bill. On April 80 the senate adopted
a resolution declaring the war with
Germany and Austria at an end: on
June ID the house adopted resolu-
ton Of similar purport, and the meas
ure was finally passed on July and
signed the next day by President
Harding. Repeated efforts to pass a
soldiers bonus bill came to naught,
but soldiers relief bureau was Gre
ated on August and Col. G. r. Forbes
was made its director. The house
passed both a tax revision bill and a
tariff blu, but the senate did not get
around to the latter. The tax meas
ure was enacted into law on Novem-
Der 81.
Among other important measures
passed were bill TO exempt American
coastwise shipping from payment Of
Panama canal tolls; a bill for govern
ment regulation of the packing indus
try; the s4S,50O,OO0 shipping board
deficiency bill; the billion-dollar farm
exports credit bill; and various meas
ures relating to enforcement of the
prohibition amendment, including one
forblddIng the manufacture and sale
Of beer as medicine.
The extra session came to an end
on November %, and on December 5
congress, met for the regular session.

justice and was sworn In on October 3.
The unemployment situation be-
came SO bad during the summer that
President Harding called conference
of experts on the subject. It began its
sessions on September 20 and after a
long study, established central bu-
reau and started local employment
movements throughout the country.
The resulting relief was but partial,
for business Itself was suffering gen
eral depression.
One of the worst race riots in the
history of the country broke out in
Tulsa, Okla, on May 81. Before IT
was quelled the negro quarter of the
city had been burned and IS persons
had been killed and many wounded.
Labor troubles Of long standing in
West Virginia eliminated In an insur-
rectiOnary movement by miners which
called forth a proclamation by the
President ordering them to dispense.
Federal troops were sent into the re-
gion and the miners soon surrendered.
A commission, headed by Gen. Leon
ard Wood, was sent to the Philippines.
It reported In November, recommend
ing against immediate withdrawal of
the United States from the islands.
Meantime General Wood was offered
and accepted the post of governor gen
eral.
The American Legion, In session at
Kansas City, elected Lieut.. Col Han
ford MacNider of Iowa Its national
commander on November l. The Lee
glon had as guests Marshal Foch of
France, General DAz of Italy, Adj
mlral Beatty of England and other
distinguished warriors. These same
visitors and many other eminent per-
sons participated, on Armistice Day,
Nov II, In the ceremony of the burial
Of Americas unknown soldier in the
National cemetery at Arlington.
Under the budget law which was
passed in May Gen. Charles G.
Dawes was appointed director general
Of the federal budget and he and his
aids made notable progress In the way
of cutting down the expenses of the
government.
