Herbert Trotter Elected Mayor
Of IN00dStOck

Herbert Trotter was elected mayor
OF Woodstock Tuesday bya majority Of
seven votes over his opponent, George
| L. Kiser, after what was said to have
been the bitterest fought campaign in
the history Of the town.
Tuesdays election was the first time
the women voters have been given a
voice in municipal affairs, and this,
together with active campaign for the
past few weeks, resulted in casting of
the heaviest vote in any election ever
held in Woodstock. All through the
campaign, the women took IN active
part in working for strict law enforce
ment. Both of the mayorality candi-
dates declared that they were for strict
law enforcement.
In the first ward, Mr.. Trotter re-
ceived majority of eighteen while
Mr.. Kiser carried the second ward by
eleven votes.
Harrison P. Magruder was unoppos-
ed for the office of town treasurer,
while William M. Burner was again
chosen town sergeant.
c. L. FOCAL, DR.. j. B. Rush, and
George Golladay were elected coun-
cilmen from the first ward. Allen
Albert, Carl C. Boyer and William
Few were elected in the second ward.
While Mr.. Davis tabulated vote was
139, the ballots indicated that quite
number who intended to vote for him
were not adept in the use of the rubber
stamp. In some instances stamping his
name at the wrong place. AS the
election laws are strict in this partic-
ular, the improper marking probably
accountS for hic defeat

Monthly Survey

Greatly Improved
IRepubIlcan a. P. Leased WIrel

WASHINGTON, April ga pro-
found Improvement" in business con-
ditions over a year ago throughout
the country is shown in the latest
statistics of commercial and indus
trial movements during March, ac-
cording to the monthly survey of cur
rent business made public tonight by
the commerce department.
Z Optimism, always returning with
the opening OF spring weather, the
department declared, has had much
to do with the recent increaseNin re-
tail trade ano better feeling prevail
ing generally, despite news of floods,
strikes and a late crop season.
This optimism the department as
serted, is based upon better fund
amentaI conditions throughout the
country.
Two outstanding features of more
than ordinary Importance" it said,
''are the marked increases in iron and
steel activity and the big increase in
construction.
Exports of cotton in March, the de-
partment announced, amounted to
461.4S4 bales, while cotton consump-
ton by textile mills amounted to SIS
$50 and stocks in cotton mills and
warehouses showed a seasonal de-
cline. the total amounting to $500,
600 bales, or about 1,250,000 bales less
than a year ago.
Increased coal production during
the month was noted and attributed
to anticipation of the strike.

Carriers Dispute
Union Claim Wage
Meeting Rejected
fRepubIIean a. P. Leased Wirel

CHICAGO. April Representa-
tives of the railroads made no attempt
to reach an agreement with the tleg-
raphers on the carriers proposal to
reduce wages cents an hour, Z. J..
Manion, president of the Order of
Railroad Telegraphers testified be-
fore the United States labor board
today. AS a result, he said, no con-
ferences had been held to the extent
that the carriers had the right to
bring the wage dispute before the la
Dor board.
The carriers disputed this state
ment and claimed that they had used
every available means to settle the
dispute before bringing 1t before the
board, as the transportation act pro-
vides.
Mr. Nanion read an extract from
a meeting between the eastern roads
and the telegraphers in which he said
the employees were merely given the
chance either to accept or reject the
wage reduction.
This was no conference" he said.
w. f. Williams of the Missouri,
Kansas and Texas railroad in testify
ing for the carriers, declared that sta
ton agents were making large SAL
aries where their profits from ex-
press commissioners were considered.
He cited a table of figures to show
that salaries ranged as high as $4,000
a year.

UNION OFFICIAL
PREDICTS EARLY.
WAGE PACT WITH
COAL PERATORS
[RepublIcan A. P. Leased wlrel


NEW YORK, April 20--A break in
the deadlock between bituminous coal
operators and miners, and peaceful
settlement of the strike within a
few weeks" was forecasted here to-
night by Samuel Gompers, president
of the American Federation of Labor
Government intervention to prevent
a shortage Of fuel for the nation will
not become necessary, Mr.. Gompers
declared
when it is demonstrated that the
miners are standing firm and are
prepared to hold out" he asserted,
'the operators will agree to confer
with them and a new wage agree
ment will be the result
The veteran labor leader had just
completed series of conferences with
union chiefs in the textile strikes in
New England. He came to New York
at the invitation of Samuel Inter
meyer, counsel for the Lockwood in
vestigating committee, to testify be-
fore that body tomorrow in regard
to labor organization practices.
Asserting that "the drive of big
business to smash the labor unions
has lost its force" Mr.. Gompers de-
clared that with a recent diminution
Of from Ia to 2 per cent in nation
wide unemployment, as reported by
government investigators, there is a
little bit of sunbeam in the industrial
situation"
The revival OF trade and manufac-
turing, he said, has already set in,
and will be one of the deciding fac
tors in the coal strike. No shortage
of fuel threatens the larger indus
tries, for they are we'll supplied for
the emergency, he said. But he fore
saw in the demand of the smaller
manufacture local enterprises, pub
lie utilities and domestic consumers,
Strengthening market for coal that
would compel producers to make
overtures to the miners, in order that
the colleries might be reopened.
The federation chief characterized
the coal and textile strikes as the
turning point in the wave of wage re-
duction which has swept the coun-
try in the last year.
These united protests have check
ed any further attempts to reduce
wages, not only in the basic indus
tries, but in all industries through
out the nation" he said.
1T marks the turning of the in
dustrial tide
The anthracite miners and oper-
ators' sub committee on wage con-
tract negotiations continued today to
mark time, while the union delegates
waited impatiently for the operators
to announce the program of wage re-
duction with which they have an
nounced they will counter the min
ers' 10 demands for wage increases
and improved working conditions.
The substitute committee viii re-
sumo sessions tomorrow when. ac-
cording to S. ID. Warriner, spokes-
man for the operators, they will sub
NIT to the miners their wage counter
proposals.

ARMY ASKS Or
PR|AT|0N
RAISING L|M| I
To 10000 MEN
[RepubIican A. P. Leased wire1

WASHINGTON, April 20--The war
departments plea for an army of
100000 men, rejected by the house,
which fixed the maximum strength
at 1900 officers and 115,O00 men,
was urged today before the senate
appropriations committee during its
consideration of the army pay.
Spokesman for the department cou-
pied with their appeal for the larger
army. a request for an officer
strength Of about 1881 or approxi-
mately the number set in the Per-
shing officer reduction bill. now
pending in the senate.
Figures presented by Major James
Mackay, representing the army fl
nance office, called for expenditure
of slightly more than $112,000.000 for
the pay of officers and men, an i'm
crease OF about $37,000,000 over the
house appropriation. The house en-
listed pay provision was for approxi-
mately $49,000,000 and $27. 100000 for
officers. The senate was asked for
approximately SOS, 100000 for enlist
ed men and $42,000000 for officers.
1t developed at the hearing, how
ever. that about $5,000,000 may be
shaved off the total appropriation for
the enlisted personnel il the pending
pay schedule should be adopted. The
new pay rate has not been acted on
either by the house or senate, but
has been presented to both by the
Joint commission which recently
completed a study of the question
and submitted a pay bill for army
navy and marine corps to take the
place of the schedule adopted in 1908.
Practically every item affecting
the compensation OF the army per-
sonnel will have to undergo a change
to make it correspond with the
larger army il the new schedule is
adopted, it was explained.
Major Mackay requested that an
appropriation TO give retired officers
extra pay when recalled to active
service be stricken from the bill. This
was accepted by senators as meaning
that the war department has changed
its policy with respect TO retired Of
ficers and contemplates the recalling
of none of them to active duty during
the coming year.
The committee was urged also to
restore the budget estimate for the
paw of army chaplains, the house
having cut the amount so that only
1O3 of the present 179 chaplains could
be retained. Col. John t. Axton,
chief of chaplains and several rep
resentatives of Protestant and Cath
olic churches appeared before the
committee in behalf of the appeal for
more chaplains. Colonel Axton said
it would be a hardship even to re-
duce the number of chaplains by Fl,
as provided in the Pershing bill and
added that he did not know how the
functions of the chaplain corps could
be cared for in all army posts and
camps, should the house provision be
retained.
