number of the country's biggest rail
way systems to enter into the War
field Willard-Jewell plan for ending
the shipments strike on the basis of

however, notably the Chicago &
Northwestern and Chicago, Milwau-
kee & St. Paul, had virtually corn

strikers at once to their former jobs
under terms of the separate settle

Negotiations were in progress with
several roads in an effort by shop

settlements.
Strike leaders were said to be ad
dressing communications to some OF

Robinson Declares
the Administration
Has Fallen Down
(By Associated Pressl

Indianapolis, Sept. 15.-Senator
Robinson, Arkansas, speaking before
the Women's Indiana Democratic
club here yesterday, asserted that
"the republican administration has
forfeited all claim to future favor
with the electorate" by its failure to
make good on its campaign pledge"
Enumerating what he termed the
"endless weakness" of the party's
management of public affairs, the
Arkansas senator concluded with the
statement that it had been discredit-
ed by foolish mistakes in decision
and submission to the autocratic de-
mands of selfish influences" and that
it had isolated, duped and over
reached by shrewd and designing for
eign diplomats in it's foreign policy,
if it has one"
Republican party leaders, fearing
reputation at the coming election,
have presented legislative plans on
the eve of the adjournment of con-
gress, Senator Robinson asserted, de-
signed "to hold the colored vote in
line" He cited the Liberian loan and
the federal anti-lynching bill.
The Arkansas senator denounced
the tariff bill as vicious way of
paying party obligations to "the buc-
cancers" and assailed the action
which gave Senator Newberry, re-
publican, Michigan, title to his seat.
