BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, March 10.-Strikes In the
national building industry have been
reduced and millions Of dollars saved
through the national board OF 1uris-
dictional awards. it was stated TO-DAY
in a report presented before the exec
utive board of the American Engi-
neering Council. of the Federated
American Engineering Societies here
today
The report, prepared by Rudolph F.
Miller Of New York, said that through
the board contractors and workers
were being brought closer together
and that the past year had witnessed
accomplishment Of great significance
to the nation in the adjustment OF re-
lations between capital and labor.
Court Recognizes DecisiOns.
Decisions Of the jurisdictional board,
the report Stated, are receiving recog-
milton at the hands of the federal
courts, notably by former Judge X.
NJ. Landis, in Chicago labor disputes.
The report expressed grave concern
over the attitude Of the Building

One discordant element in the ma

which has refused to submit Its own
disputes to the jurisdictional board

RUSSIA TO REPAY
us. FREIGHT LOSS
Secretary Hoover Says Reim-
bursement for Delay in Nov
ing Food Is Promised.

The American Relief Administration
will be reimbursed by the soviet gov
ernment for any demurrage loss result
ing from failure of rail transportation
in distributing food supplies. Secretary
Hoover said last night. He made the
announcement in connection with his
recent statement concerning failure of
the Russian railways to move inland to
famine regions more than one-fourth Of
the grain and other foodstuffs stored at
seven Russian seaports.
Mr.. Hoover discussed the relief work
yesterday with Prof. A. c. Coolidge of
Harvard University, who has returned
to the United States to submit report
after acting as chief liaison officer be-
tween the soviet government and the
American Relief Administration in Mos
cow. After comforting with the Secre-
tary, Prof. Coolidge gave out a state
ment Of the relief work.
THE outstanding fact about the
American Relief Administration work
at the present time," he said, sis that
it Is being done in spite of difficulties.
delays, accidents, imperfections and
all other things inevitable In an en-
terprise of such dimensions. The job
is being put through. A second point
to note is that the soviet government
itself recognizes what we are doing
and is cooperating with US heartily.
kamenev himself has declared that
the American Relief Administration
has done more than 80 per cent of
the foreign relief work so far. The
soviet government has to overcome
numerous difficulties of transporta-
ton and others in the task of get
ting our food to the people, but it is
making great efforts and working
hand-in hand with us. Not only the
government but the people recognize
that it is America that is helping
them during the present crisis and
that they owe us great debt of
gratitude. Even the memory OF the
comparatively insignificant assistance
we gave them in the fami ne of 1892
has not faded entirely out of their
minds and in the present crisis mil
lions of people look on America as
their savior.
I'VE have had no cause to complain
of any loss of our provisions, which
reach their destination sometimes
with disappointing delay. but still
which get there. are distributed un-
der the direction of our own people
and do inestim able good.
THE neck of the bottle Is railway
transport inside Russia. So far the
railways have not been able to ham
die the volume of food, which the
authorities guaranteed. The food is
perishable character and in the mean
time every effort is being made by
the American railway experts that
have now been-added to the American
staff to get better movement. No
doubt transport will improve. An
other month is required to fairly
test out the capacity of the railways
under the reorganiZed effort. The
same condition as to- transport of
native supplies from Siberia and in
the Ukraine exists as does in the case
Of relief imports, and both problems
must be solved at the same time"

FIRE INSURANCE AGENTS
DENY LOBBY CHARGES
Evidence Supporting ana Disputing
Mississippi Governors Allegations
Heard by Legislative Committee.

By the Associated Press.
JACKSON, Miss, March 10.-Tesu-
mony by eight fire insurance agents
in denial of charges that a per
nicious' lobby was being maintained
in Mississippi. and the evidence Of
one state official. Stokes v. Robertson,
revenue agent, in support of the
charges. were before the house COM
mittee Of investigation when the in
quiry was resumed today into allega-
tions made by Gov. Lee M. Russell
against fire insurance interests which
recently withdrew from the state
after the filing of antitrust proceed
ings.
other developments Of the opening
day of the investigation yesterday
were the receipt of a lengthy state
ment from the governor reiterating
his charges made IN a special message
to the legislature last month, and a
communication from the executive Of
flee announcing that it was not the
intention of Gov. Russell to appear in
person before the committee. The
governor. in concluding his letter to
the committee, advised the members
that If they wished to consult with
him he would receive them in his
office "at such time as will be con-
venient."
No intimation' thus far has been
given as to the number Of witnesses
to be heard by the committee. Nearly
a score were on hand at the hour set
for the resumption Of the inquiry this
morning.
In addition to the allegation Of lob
bying Gov. Russell charged that the
suit filed by Miss Frances Birkhead
against the governor and now pend
ing in federal court was fostered by
fire insurance interests. He also al
legged other improper tactics in ef-
forts to force legislation favorable to
the insurance companies.

STYLES IN ToMBsT0NEs
SHOW PERIOD IN WHICH
THEIR OWNERS LIVED

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO. March 10.-Styles in
tombstones change as well as
gayer fashions, and even the short
history of America has witnessed
profound changes in what dealers
in monuments like to call memo
rial art. The slate slabs, sur
mounted by round cherub faces or
grimly grinning skulls, crudely
carved, which still mark the
graves of the Pilgrim elders in
Granary burying ground at Bos-
ton, the cemetery at Plymouth, and
in other old New England grave
yards, are in austere contrast to
the lofty obelisks and huge sar-
cophagi Of the last century which
are seen in more pretentious ceme-
teries. Tombstones of today are
of neither type, according to II.
C. Witaker of the Monumental
News, Madison, Wis.
Tombstones erected between 1900
and 1875, Mr.. Witaker says. were
imposing in size, but whatever
dignity they had was often marred
by the ridiculous verses inscribed
on them. Such verses are no long
er in vogue. remarks Mr.. Whitaker.
who adds that the taste developed
in recent years discards pre-
tentious stones in favor of small
tombstones of exact proportions
and plain lettering.
