SENIORITY RIGHTS.

A great deal has been heard re-
Gently of Seniority rights" in con-
nection with the strike of railroad
shopmen, and there is great deal
of confusion in the public mind
as to Just what seniority Fights
are. To state the matter concise
~. seniority in each class OF rail-
road employees means that those
who have served the longest in the
continuous employ of a railroad
stand at the head OF the list and
in the order of their length of
service in the line of work in
which they are engaged. Standing
at the head of the list means that
they have first call upon promo
tons, desirable transfers and con-
tinuous employment.
For the classes Of men now on
strike the seniority rules were pro-
mulgated by the United States
Railroad Labor board on Novem-
Der 20, 1921, in addendum No. 6
to decision No. %.
The chief provisions are:
"Rule IT. Employees serving on
night shifts desiring day work
shall have preference when vacan-
cies occur, according to their SEN
iority.
"Rule IS. When new jobs are
created or vacancies occur in their
respective crafts, the Oldest en-
ployes in point of service shall. IL
sufficient ability is shown by trial,
be given preference in filling such
new jobs, or any vacancies that
may be desirable to them.
"Rule 81. When it becomes nee.
essary to reduce expenses the
hours may be reduced to forty (40)
per week before reducing the
! force. When the force is reduced,
seniority as per rule 81 will gov
ern. In the restoration Of forces,
senior laid-off men will be given
preference in returning to service,
II available within a reasonable
time, and shall be returned to their
former positions If possible.
"Rule 20. When reducing forces
II. men are needed at any point,
they will be given preference TO
transfer to nearest point. with
privilege OF returning TO home sta
Qtion when force is increased, such
transfer tn be made without ex-

wheat developed a little confidence

pressure to sell. 49, ooo
II was estimated that 100000
bushels of wheat were taken Tor
Europe today. Foreign crop re-
ports were generally construed as
rather unfavorable and a decrease
of 17,662,O00 bushels for July IN
the worlds available supply was
contrasted with 1,116,OOO bushels
increase last year. An addltlonai
bullish factor was strength as
played by the corn market as a re-
suit of hot, dry weather. n the
other hand, cash wheat premiums
collapsed late in the day. with win
ter wheat premiums off ! cent and
premiums for new spring wheat B
to 8 cents lower.
Crop damage reports especially
from parts Of Kansas and Nebraska
had a bullish effect ON the corn
market, although partly offset by
word If rain in Illinois. Oats were
easier owing to enlarged receipts
here.
Export sales OF 100000 pounds

GREEKS PLAN TO RESIST
TURKS IN ASIA MINOR"
SAY REPRESENTATIVES,.

A story o. elaborate prepare
lions by representatives of 1,000,-
900 Inhabitants of Western Asia
Minor to resist the efforts of the
allied proposal that the Greek
army evacuate that territory and
permit the country to come under
the rule of Mustapha Renal Pasha
has been brought to this country
by Stephanos Beinoglou and An
tonios Athinogenis, sent here as
official delegates of the Christian
Micrasiatic Defense, with head
quarters at Smyrna.
THE decision of the allied min
lister places US in the dilemma of
remaining in our homes in Asia
Minor and being butchered by the
Turks and leaving our Homes and
following the Greek army as refill
gees" said Mr.. Beinoglou, spokea-
man for the mission, in an inter-
view at the Hotel Commodore yes
terday.
I'VE will choose neither course.
We have decided that when the
Greek army evacuates Asia Minor
we will remain, protect our homes
and our families and die to the last
man rather than surrender to the
bloodthirsty Kemalists.
I'VE now have $4,000 men in the
Greek army. We are recruiting
our forces so that they may event
ually reach 100000. We have or
gained a gendarmerie of 1000
as reserve force. On our way
to this country word reached US
that more intensive mobilization
of the population had begun.
THE Greek military authorities
in Smyrna have modified Armen-
ians and Circassians who have
volunteered. We know that even
IL the word is given to the Greek
army to evacuate the region, a
large part of the army will never
accept the order so long as the
Christians of Asia Minor will have
to fight to maintain their freedom.
Under the treaty of Sevres, the
people of Asia Minor were freed
from Turkish rule, but subsequent
political conditions caused the al
lied foreign ministers at Paris to
decide to hand US back to the ten
der mercies' of Mustapha Renal.
Directly the decision became
known to us last March we began
our defense. You have probably
read in this country that the allies
have promised that the evacuated
territory would pass over to Turk
ish suzerainty, and that guaran-
tees would be exacted from the

GOVERNMENT MAY OWN IT'S
POSTOFFICE BUILDINGS.

Word comes from washington
that congress may be asked to give
its support to the plan initiated by
the postoffice department for gov
eminent ownership of postoffice
buildings throughout the country.
This step seems likely as the re-
suit Of the decision reached by
high officials of the postoffice de-
partment that this plan for gov
ernment-owned postoffices, instead
of the present system of rented Of
fices, will be made the major en-
deavor of the department for the
remainder of the administration.
Congress will be consulted at
every step in the scheme, which In
wolves the purchase by the United
States of more than 5000 postof-
flee buildings, and sites for many
more, as the parcel post business
Of the nation grows.
The present system of paying
enormous rents, running into mill
lions of dollars, is regarded by
postal officials as perhaps the
most unbusinesslilie spectacle in
government service which has in
the past presented many such I'M
businesslike ways of procedure.
\ Under the present way Of doing
things, a private builder borrows
money, say at Z per cent, ana
builds postoffice, for which the
government pays rent year after
year. The government could bor-
row money at 4 per cent
it is pointed out, and then would
own the building itself, tax free,
whereas in paying rents for postot-
fices it must also pay taxes. the
taxes being figured into the rents
by the owner.
Government ownership Of post
offices, It is pointed out, would al
low the government to take the
natural growth of cities, and pur-
chase ground in advance. Thus
the government would get the ad-
vantage of low cost.
1t is expected that the treasury
department will fully cooperate
in the plan, and that the secretary
of the treasury will do all In his
power to end the present method
of renting. Officials recently were
shocked at the enormous rental 10
be paid for new postoffice build
ing in New York, cunning up into.
MANY millions of dollars in few
years.
The office of the supervising
architect of the treasury now plans
the building of all postoffices. The
new plan would mean that post
office men, familiar with the mod
ern problems of postoffices, would
design and supervise the building
of all offices.
Cities and towns of the country
would greet the new plan with
Joy, it is held. and as all would
welcome federal-owned postof-
flee in their midst.
1t is seldom, officials believe,
that plan for betterment OF a
government service has held so
much of real economy and so
many points in which real business
methods can be demonstrated, For
this reason it should be popular
throughout the country and in
congress, when properly explained
cials hope to get the president to
send special message.
The government has been a
stanch supporter of the "Own Your
Own Home" campaign. Appar-
emily it is going to do what it has
been admonishing private citizens
to do for many years.

THE MARKETS
(By The Associated Press.)
FINANCIAL
Wall Street.

/
New York, Aug. 16.-Wall street
found fresh encouragement today
in the coal and rail strike sltua-
tons, indulging In an early buying
demonstration that caused an APP
preciable advance in prices on the
stock market. This gave way to
dullness later which was varied by
special demonstrations in individ-
ual issues, several of which reach
ed new highs for the year. Profit
taking caused some irregularity at
the close. Trading continued to
be largely of a professional char
acter but the days sales, $4,000
shares, were among the highest in
recent weeks.
Most of the standard rails ad-
vanced one to three points in the
early trading but most of the gains
were reduced to fractions by the
selling pressure in the late deal
ings. Special buoyancy was shown
by shares of public utilities COM
panies.
Strength OF Phillips Petroleum
and the Standard Oil shares were
construed as an indication OF sub,
stantial improvement in the sta
tistical position of tho industry,
which recently has suffered from
over production.
Trading in United States Steel,
which has not been very active in
recent weeks, was more extensive
today, presumably because of the
beneficial effect that the settlement
of the coal strike is likely'to have
on its production figures. The
common advanced nearly a point.
An easier tone prevailed in the
call money market, the opening
and renewing rate Of 81 per cent
being the lowest in a fortnight. An
abundance of offerings caused the
price to ease to 3 per cent, where
it held until closing. Banks report
fair amount of time money ma
turing at the end of the month be-
ing loaned at 81 per cent. The
brisk demand for sterling exchange
resulted in an advance of nearly a
cent to $4.47 3-16 for demand bills,
French checks eased off to 1893 u.
