CERTAIN ROADS
At WAGE PROBE
Hooper Rules Against Evil
denCe Presented By
Unions Alleging Violation
of the Law By Carriers.
RULING OF BOARD IS
PROTESTED BY JEWELL
Charges That Proper Con-
ferenceS As Required BY
the Transportation Act
Had Not Been Held,

Chicago. March 13.-An attempt
to bar number OF railroads from
the present wage hearings before
the United States railroad labor
board failed today when Vice
Chairman Ben w. Hooper ruled
against evidence presented by rail-
way employees to show that the
roads had violated the law and
therefore have no standing before
the board.
The ruling brought out the fact
that action on cases involving
three roads, charged with violation
of the transportation act because
OF contracting shop work to out
side firms, is expected soon. The
question at issue, Vice Chairman
Hooper said, was one of the most
important the board has faced. If
such contract work were declared
legal, he added, the ground would
be cut out from under this board
and the itals of The transpor.a-
ton act would be killed"
Cases against the Erie, the In
diana Harbor Belt and the New
York e..tral are now pending be-
fore the board All involve the
subletttng OF shop work to con-
tractors, all of wlom are paying
lower wages than the scale set for
railroad shop men by the board.
The ruling was made over the
vigorous protest of b. M. Jewell,
mead of the shop crafts unions,
who .sserted that if shoDs were
to be closed by the railroau on,
day and opened by contractor II
lower wages the HeXt, the railroads
were setting N example which
might convince the employees that
tine very small number we have
termed radicals were right and the
great majority of sane minded en-
ployes is 100 per cent wrong"
Mr.. Jewelps attempt to rule ont
the contracting carriers came after
he had presented testimony to
snow that proper conferences. ac-
cofding TO the requirements of the
transportation act, had not been
held prior to bringing these wags
disputes to the board on numer-
Gus railroads. In all cases, Mfr,
jewell charged that the roads dill
not give the required 80 days no.
tice of their wage adjustment pro-
posals, that they aubmitted a fixed
reduction for acceptance or rejee-
ton and that there was no real en-
deavor to actually negotiate \

STRIKE IN COAL
FIELDS APRIL |
SEEMS CERTAIN
Operators Continue Their
Refusal to Enter a Con-
ference With Unions Re-
garding New Wage Pact.

Washington, March 13.-Little
hope for averting a strike in the
unionized bituminous coal fields on
April l, was held out today in those
official circles whicn are most
concerned with the repeated gov
iernmenlal attempts to BRING apcuL
an adjustment or wage asreelnen mt
IullterenCes.
NINE operators, it was declared,
were continuing IN their refusal 10

standing representations MADE 20
them by Secretary OF LABOR Davis
who holds that existing contracts
require them at least to enter nego-
.tiatlons regardless of whether sucA
negotiations are carried to compile :
tion.
The United Mine Workers of
America, the general union organi-
cation, was declared TO be entirely
willing to ente. conference, a.
though insisting upon the mainte-
nance of existing wage sc1.es, which
were adopted in 1920. The en-
ployers are demanding reductions
amounting to 20 per cent or more.
TO Await Developments.
1t was indicated in official cir
cles today that the government
would go no further at present but
await the development of the
threatened strike. The degree OF
possible government intervention
later, ii was said by high official,
would be determined by the de-
gree to which the strike, if it de
veloped, might affect adversely the
public welfare. Statistics assem-
bled for the labor department in
dieate that siXty-five million tons
of coal are now in storage, approx
imately ten weeks supply for the
entire country, that this amount Is
rapidly being augmented, and thar
non-union pre- duction is tending TO
increase. Local agreements between
the union and operators are also eX-
pected to go into effect on or be
fore April l, which would insure
maintenance of further operations
Hands Off Policy.
Secretary Davis was said to be
a policy of hands off
with reference to the anthracite
on the ground that oper-
ators and miners were now confer
ring and that prospects were at
least hopeful that wage contracts
would be made. Officials declared
there was no reason to believe that
a coal strike would spread to other
industries and took occasion to
point out that in 1903, when a gem
oral strike developed in the anthra-
cite regions, former President
Roosevelt did not interfere until It
had been in progress for SIX
months.
John t. Lewis. president of the
United Mine workers, was expected
to arrive in Washington tomorrow
but union representatives here said
he would then go Immediately to
New York to participate in the an.
thracite negotiations.

Los Angeles, Calf, March 49,
Mrs. Madalynne Obenchain used
her husband, Ralph Obenchain, as
"a human doormat,' Deputy Dis
trict Attorney Charles w. Fricke
declared today in the opening argu-
ment for the prosecution in the
trial of Mrs. Obenchain on tho
charge of numbering j. Bolton Ken

Fricke dwelt upon Mrs. Oben
chains relations with Ohen
chain, kenneoy dnG Arthur c..
Burch, co-defendant in the case.
The prosecution contends Burcn
fired the shot which killed Ken
nedy.
Mrs, Obenchains testimony was
completed this afternoon; the de
fense called only one more witness
and the prosecution confined its
rebuttal to the testimony Of one
witness, Mrs. j. d. Kennedy, moth
er of the slain man.
Mrs. Kennedy testified that Miss
M. l.. Wilson, proprietor of
beauty parlor," told her on July
II, 1921. your son is going to die,
you are going to cry"
Miss Wilson testified for the de-
Tense that Kennedy and Mrs. Oben-
chain communicated with each
other through her. and denied she
made the statement to which Mrs.
Kennedy testified.
II. S. Hallner, private detective,
was the last witness called by the
defense. He testified he recently
drove an automobile from Los An
geles to Long Beach. a seaside re-
sort and back, the speedometer
reading being 43S miles. The pros
ecution had shown that the speed
|ometer reading on a car driven by
Arthur G. Burcil, co-defendant in
the case, on the night of the slay-
ing, was A miles. There was nc
testimony that Burch was in Long
Beach.

1t appeared from Mrs. Oben-
chains pallied face and nervous
manner as SIZE resumed the witness
stand today that she had not rested
much during the weekend ad-
journment of court. Her voice.
however, was much stronger and
more audible. She showed consid-
Ierable hesitancy in answering some
questions during previous cross ex
animation.
Deputy District Attorney Asa
keyes took up the cross examina-
ton at the point in Mrs. Oben-
chains testimony where it was stop
ped Friday by adjournment. He
questioned her in detail about her
trip with Kennedy to his cottage in
Beverly Glen on the night of the
shooting. She clung to her previous

suggested the trip to the glen. To
her former statement that Kennedy
suggested tney go to the cabin ana

added further reason today, say

up to the cottage, where he might
urge her to marry him.

Washington, March 13.-Oppon-
ents of the four-power Pacific
treaty loosed another series OF
broadsides against the pact today
in the senate but slackened their
onslaught just before adjourn
ment to accept unanimous con-
sent for a vote tomorrow On the
first of the proposed amendments.
Senators johnson, California,
and Borah, of Idaho, both repCbli-
cans, took the lead in the all day
attack, the former declaring ratt-
fination of the treaty would be q

threat of danger from the Anglo
Japanese alliance, and the latter
asserting that the proposed four
power arrangement would .trans
to the acific the old balance of
power system that has dominated
Europe for centuries.
Who Wrote tn. Treaty?
A question as to inc authorship
of the treaty and its supplemental
agreements again was raiseG
during the debate, Mr.. Borah as
serting that despite Secretary
Hughes letter accepting respt nsi-
bilities for the final draft, there
seemed to be 1.-THE most conclu.ivt

Robinson Speaks.
administration leaders declared
tonight they had sufficient votes
to defeat the amendment. Senator
Robinson made a short speech to-
day favoring its adoption in the
interest, he said, of fair play for
Russia, China ana other non-signa-
republican, Wisconsin, argued
against 1t on the ground that i;
would impose blanket obligations
going even beyond the league of
nations covenant.
Senator Johnson's address of
more than two l. IS, was directed
largely against the declaration of
the treaty's supporters that its
chief benefit lay in the provision
abrogating the Anglo japanese al
lance.
The chief difference between the
new treaty and the league cove

seemed to be that it bore a repub-
