ing their stand on the seniority issue-said
to be the crux of the whole strike question
Whereupon the disputants would be expected
to come together on the matter of a fair
living wage for railroad employees, conceded
to be the remaining important issue.
IL Roads Refuse.
If the railroad executives refused, it was
declared, the President, satisfied he has full
authority and duty delegated him by the
constitution to maintain interstate commerce
and the mail service could proceed to operate
the railroads.
While the Cummings act would be
invoked for the purpose as far as that would
apply, it was said, the Presidents main reli-
ance would be the duty entrusted to the
chief executive under the constitution.
Has Full Authority.
The President, it is understood has
been assured by his advisers, that his author
ity for decisive action, without recourse to
Congress is without question.
Two courses would be open to him in
order physically to operate the railroads,
it was said. First, he could request the
strikers to return to work under the govern
ment operation at the old wage scale and
with seniority right restored. If this failed,
then federal troops could be called upon to
assure operation of the trains
Victory for Labor.
The first course the President is under
stood to believe, would be acceptable to the
strikers, who would see in it the capitulation
Of the railroad executives, and victory won
for labor. The chief contention of the strik-
ers, it was said, has developed into fight
for seniority, with the wage dispute becom-
ing subordinate.
There is little disposition in government
circles to consider meeting the emergency by
actually putting the lines under government
operation.

WOOL DUTY STARTS
FIGHT BY LENROOT
Warns Senate OF High Cost 1t Will
Put On Clothing.

WASHINGTON, July 24.-Failing
to get action from the Senate finance
committee majority, Senator Lenroot,
republican, Wisconsin, launched today
in the Senate his fight to limit to six
ty percent ad valorem the duties in
the pending tariff bill on coarse woods,
both in the raw and the manufactured
state. His proposal met with sharp
opposition from spokesmen for the
committee and Senators engaged in
the production of wool and they were
frequent and at times sharp exchanges.
Warns Of Cost.
Warning his republican colleagues that
the 33 cents a pound duty proposed would
result in an increase in the cost of wool
en- clothing, Senator Lenroot declared the
republicans would have difficulty in justi-
flying to the people in the large cities
proper protective duties for the wool
producers, but that could not justify
this enormous equivalent ad valorem
duty, equalling some cases 1877 percent
on wool Of a Kind not produced in this
country to any appreciable extent.

JournaD
WASHINGTON, D. c., July-The nomi-
nation of Urban p. Eytchison to be post
master at Mariana, Florida, was sent
to the Senate several days ago to sue
ceed Edward C. Lewis, and the appoint
ment is expected to be confirmed in
time for Eytchison to have the other
details arranged and take office by
August /.
Lewis has been postmaster at Mariana
about nine years. He was given two
appointments by President Wilson, the
last term having expired August /, 1921.
When the republicans sometime ago
decided to give the Mariana postmaster
ship to republican and had an examina-
ton held of the candidates, Lewis was
the only eligible. Because of this an
other examination was ordered held in
an effort to get some republicans on the
eligible list. In the contest between sew
eral prominent citizens Of Marianna.
Lewis again made the highest mark, one
of the highest ever made.
Lewis service record was excellent.
But Eytchison also got an eligible rating
and he was given the appointment for
political reasons pure and simple.

Move for Railroad" Unions

PLAN TO USE THE

FOR ORGANIZATION
Strike of 10000 Station Agents
Prevented by McMenimen.
tey The Associated Prsssl

CHICAGO. July 24-The averting of q
strike of approximately 10000 station
agents, preparations for the formation of
new unions of shop workers on forty east
ern roads, and negotiations for a sepa-
rate peace on the Baltimore and Ohio,
marked the progress today of the railway
shipments strike.
Would Hold Out.
The move for new unions to take the
place of the striking shop crafts was
initiated by L. f. Loree, eastern regional
chairman of the Association of Railway
Executives and was taken as an indica-
tion of the intention of the roads to hold
out against the strikers demand for
return of seniority rights as preliminary
to any settlement.
Use Board Rulings.
The eastern roads, according to Mr.
Loree, plan to take advantage Of rulings
by the labor board by organizing new
shop men in such a way that each system
will have its own union and will be able
to negotiate separately with its men.
Stops Station Men.
The efforts of w. L. McMenimen, labor
member of the rail board, today prevented
a further spread of the strike, confer
ence with w. J. Noone, head of the sta
ton agents organization. Mr.. Noone
complained that the station agents were
being forced to do the work of the strik-
ers, but Mr.. McMenimen gave him such
assurances that any grievances would be
corrected that he afterward announced
that the station agents would remain
at work pending a conference with the
labor board.
TWO Trains Off.
Comparatively few outbreaks were re-
ported during the day, but further can
collation. OF trains, said to be due mostly
to the shortage of coal, were reported
from various sections. The Grand Trunk
took off two trains between Chicago and
Detroit and two between Chicago and
Harvey.

Imperial Wizard Denies That He Has

ATLANTA, July 24.-Edward Young
Clarke, Imeperial Wizard pro tenn of the
knights of Ku Klux Klan, late today
issued a statement denying that he had
unmasked the Ku Klux Slan in Georgia
or any other part of the country
The only thing he did, Mr.. Clarke said.
was to issue an executive order, applying
only to Georgia, stopping for the time
being all parades and the use of the mask
and costume for any purpose in Georgia
by the Klansmen except in the lodge
room of the Klan."
Grossly Twisted.
Emphasizing trrat the executive order
was confined to Georgia, Mr.. Clarke IN
his statement said:
"The correspondence between myself
and Governor Hardwick regarding the
Ku Klux Klan published in the Sunday
papers has been grossly twisted and 1t
is causing considerable misunderstanding
on account of this fact
''I have ordered a searching inquiry
into recent crimes in Georgia and believe
we shall be able to show that not one per
cent of same in any way involve the Ku
Klux Khan"

Leave For Home.
Those members of congress who have
spirited campaigns on are for getting
back home regardless of the method.
They want tariff enacted or withheld
from consideration for the present. OF
course the majority favor early enact
ment, but there is believed to be a sub
stantial element among them who prefer
temporarily laying the measure aside
rather than confine themselves to Wash
ington and stand the chances of losing
out in the coming election. Interesting
developments may arise in the future
concerning including In the tariff proposal
to postpone consideration of the ship sub
sidy and bonus until the short session of
congress which is now awaiting the presi-
dents consent.
Harding Troubled.
Mr.. Harding is said to be giving the
matter his serious attention, awaiting
some relaxation in the strike situation
before making an announcement. II he
finds the exigencies of the case demand
such action for the good of the party,
it is not unlikely that the agreement OF
Senators. Lodge, Watson and Curtis, to-
gether with other Republican leaders Of
the senate over the legislative program
might be accepted, and even extended
to make some provision over the tariff.

by the commission with the practice Of
maintaining resale prices similar TO that

The complaints dismissed today were

WASHINGTON, July 24-While on the
surface concrete developments in the rail-
road strike were lacking in Washington to-
day, the impression gained in official circles
was that the situation was being rapidly
shaken down. to point where new move
by the administration could be expected.
Harding in Charge.
Cabinet members who discussed the
situation invariably declared that President
Harding was in personal charge of the ques-
ton, though there was more than the belief
that the cabinet would be called upon to
consider it at the regular session tomorrow.
No hint was forthcoming as to the manner
in which the transportation crisis would be
laid before the Presidents official family.
Gone Far Enough.
Further evidence was obtained, however,
that some of the chief executives advisers
have urged that the government can permit
commerce to go no further, while waiting for
railway managements and shopmen to dis
pose of their differences.
Business Blanketed.
Official reports have been received. it is
known, giving details of the extent to which
the strike has been responsible for the al
most "total blanketing" of the healthy busi-
ness revival in the United States and, while
instances of direct interference with the
United States mails have recently been con-
spicuously absent, postal inspectors today
recorded the further annulment of important
mail trains.
Pressure on Roads.
Some administration advisers who favor
a drastic move by the government are known
to hold the view that President Harding
should demand that the railroad executives
make every effort to restore interstate COM
merce, especially to the extent of abandon

Board Of General Officers VIII Eliminate
or Denote Some $500.

WASHINGTON, July A-The board of
general officers appointed to undertake
the most wholesale "plucking" job ever
initiated among the regular army officers
corps will hold its first meeting tomorrow
with Major General Joseph T. Dickman,
retired, presiding as president.
1t was to have begun operations to-
wards the elimination or demotion of
some $500 officers today but was held
up by the absence of one member.
Suspended Sentence.
Members of the board, which is repre-
sentative of all arms of the service, were
greatly concerned in their preliminary
discussions today over the probable
effect upon the morale of the army of
the suspended sentence now hanging over
the head of practically every officer in
the service with the exception of General
Pershing and the bakers dozen of second
lieueenants now in the army.
Could Reduce coIoneIs.
Congress in directing that the officers
corps be reduced by January 1, to 10000,
did not include the general officers of the
army in fixing the number to be retained
in each grade. The War Department, in
preparing instructions for the "plucking
board" did include the general officers
insofar as retirement of any of the major
or brigadier generals for physical dis
ability would create vacancies and per-
nit the appointment of colonels to gen.
eral officer rank, reducing the number
of surplus coIonels to that extent.
Unsuitable Officers"
Board members are understood to feel
that there is little prospects of finding
many officers now on the rolls who meriS
discharge. The army recently cleaned
house in this regard on its 1--WE motion
and the suggestion of General Pershing
to Congress that the strength of the
corps be fixed at 1880 was based upon
the efforts then in progress 10 get rid
of unsuitable officers in the way con-
gress previously had provided through
efficiency ratings and the "class b. rat
ings.
