NEW YORK, Aug. 4.-Strikers Of

their emphatic denial Of the declara-
ton OF the railroads that the back

The telegram, which is a protest

signed by John ]. Dowd, chairman,
and Dave Williams. secretary, Of
the metropolitan district central
strike committee, declares
The 5000 experienced railroad

lieve that a Government official Of
your high standing can have lent his
sanction to propaganda issued by the

a public denial Of these dispatches.
Insofar as the New York metro.
politan district is concerned we
know the assertions Of the executives
"No desertions Of the slightest con-
sequence have occurred in the past
few days.
THE official figures of the rail-
way executives themselves, showing
an increase OF 1895 in bad order

Wireless Chief in Commerce
Dept. Sees Universal
Language Soon.
By JOHN G0LDsTROM.
Universal Service.

The widely spreading use Of the
radiophone will result eventually in
adoption OF a universal language
either Esperanto or some language
now commonly used, such as Eng
lish, perhaps.
This is the belief Of William D.
Terrell, chief OF the radio division Of
the Department OF Commerce, ex-
pressed in an exclusive interview for
Universal Service.
I'VE are now able to converse
through the radiophone not only with
persons a few hundred miles away,
but with persons across the CONT
nent; and time signals have been
heard all the way around the
world" Mr.. Terrell said.
I'VE have already spoken across
the Atlantic ocean with our Eng
lish speaking neighbors on the Brit
ish Isles, and with the greater de-
velopment of radio we will soon be
able to converse easily with any
body anywhere in the world.
I'VE viii be up against II when
we try to speak across the Pacific
ocean to the Asiatic countries-to
China, Japan and India, unless the
world adopts q universal tongue.
That may be Esperanto, which for
years has had many advocates, or
1t may be English. which has had
rapidly increasing use throughout
the world In recent years, particu.
larly since the war.
