New Move to Settle
Railroad Strike Is
Generally Expected
By GEORGE r. HOLMES.

Decision of the Administration
that the drastic Daugherty injunc-
ton against the striking railway
shopmen Is not to be enforced lit
orally, to the point OF abridgment
of free speech and lawful, peaceful
assembly, was accompanied today
by a furry of reports that new
peace moves are afoot to end the
nine weeks strike of the federated
shopcrafts.
Executives to Meet.
These new peace moves, definite
confirmation of which was lacking,
were reported to hinge about the
efforts Of B. NJ. Jewell, chairman
of the shopcraft unions; Daniel
Willard, president of the Baltimore
and Ohio, a pronounced moderate"
among the executives; and T. De-
Witt Cuyler, head Of the Associa,
ton of Railway Executives.
II was reported In Washington
today that a conference Of railway
executives will be summoned to
meet either in Washington or New
York before the week Is out. to
start the machinery Of adjustment
to grinding.
Unusual secrecy surrounded the
renewed efforts at adjustment
While details of the reported peace
overtures were lacking this morn,

apparently recognized the need OF
mutual adjustment was looked upon
as favorable and significant
factor.

 As further development of com mercial use of the thin oil film it is proposed to apply it to mosquito infested waters and swamp lands. The oil spreads over such a great ly extended surface that it may be possible to use an airplane, with a light cargo of oil, to spray marshy lands which have been inaccessi- ble to present methods of oil treat ment. It is found that the thin film will remain unbroken on open water surfaces for fifteen days during the mosquito breeding season, the cut ting of the oil cost by twenty five times will permit of mosquito exter- imitation commissions to stand the expense of oiling vastly greater areas more often and effectively than can be, done at present.
 And finally such oil films might be employed for calming rough wat CT at sea. The relative cheapness of their production offers real on, portunity here.

EXPECT TO STRIKE VEIN

The Fl Nido Gold Mining Company should strike the vein on it's prop erty in Lisianski Inlet within 30 days, according to statement made by J. H. Cam, president. One hun dred and sixty feet more of tunnel must be driven before the vein ap- pears, according to the survey. There are now 5SO feet of tunnel
 MT. Cam said the company will begin further development at once when the vein is struck, depending on the showing it makes.
 We expect to erect stamp mill and a tram, leading from the mine to the mill," said MT. Cam. "The mill will be put up 4,S00 feet from the beach and 1,60O feet from the mine. The size will not be deter mined until further prospecting and development is carried out on the vein.
 We intend raising from the low CT tunnel, in which we are now working, to the upper tunnel.
 "The company is very much pleased with the results of the de- velopment done on the property so far. We have opened considerable more tonnage than the tunnel show ed when we first struck the ore.

WANTS UNITED STATES TO JOIN CONFERENCE
 LAND DISARMAMENT

PARIS, Sept. GA Hand disarma- ment conference" at Washington should be the logical successor of the Naval Disarmament Conference and should seek to solve all Europe's tan gles, according to Amadeo P Gian- nini. president of the Bank of Italy of San Francisco, interviewed by h. ternational News Service after study ing financial and industrial conditions.
 "We in America have made money out of the war; said MT Giannini. "We cannot now adopt policy of total isolation from European affairs. We have distinct responsibility.
 q found in Germany disposition towards a revengeful spirit, but un- limited armament is not necessary to protect the world against this. Ger many has no more allies. Austria is crushed, her condition is pitiful. The United States may have to take a hand in helping her regain her feet She will become the debtor of allied nations.
 "As for Russia, she can be isolated by intelligent handling of Germany, o1 Germany and Austria. By permit, ting Germany, or more especially Aus tria. to drift towards communism we are only paving the way for dan gerous union.'

Look at the Sun; Forecast the Weather

Joseph, the long-famed weather prophet of the Bible, who foretold the seven fat years and the following seven years of famine, may one day be shown up as a piker by modern weather forecasters, when solar obser- vations being conducted bysthe Smith sonian institution are completed.
 Dr. c. c. Abbott. assistant secre- tary of the institution, describing the institutions worldwide studies of the variation of the heat of the sun, de clares the institution researches are being closely followed by scientists all over the world, and may make long time prognostications as usual and simple part of weather mapping.
 After many years close observa- ton and measurement of the heat ra- diation from the sun. 1t has been finally determined that the sun does not throw off a continuous amount of heat; that neither does the earth re- ceive a constant amount of solar heat; that these variations are periodic and primarily the suns rotation; and that variation and the earth's climate.

FOG CONQUEST PROMISED BY
 NEW PROCESS

PITTSBURGH, Pa., Sept. 6. - major-scale experiment in fog pre- vention will be attempted by scien- lists of Mellon Institute of Indus trial Research and it's parent body, the University of Pittsburgh, in con- junction with the War Department, the Weather Bureau and State and city authorities within the next sixty days. The cost will be. defrayed by Pittsburgh business man who has been persuaded on the basis of Whol- ly successful laboratory tests that fog can be conquered.
 The scene of the experiment will be a twenty-mile stretch of the Mon- ongahela, running from Rice's Land ing to McKeesport, Pa. Under the direction of Major J. Franklin Bell, district chief of the War Depart ment's rivers and harbor work, GOV ernment steamers and crews, will lend aid. The city of Pittsburgh will supply sprayers for equipping the boats. Oils and chemicals for the I experiment are already in storage at the Government plant at Rice's ] landing.
 RIVER MAIN FOG SOURCE
 The battle against the fog will he fought on the river, because 1t IS from water surfaces, except in eX- cessveliy wet Spring seasons, that all the vapor clouds arise to spread for miles over adjacent land areas. It has long been known that eyap- oration can be completely checked bv blanketing a body of water in heavy mineral ail. But always, here tofore. grave objections to the use of oil have existed Cost has been excessive and the petroleum pro- duct used gave the water a dlsa- greable taste.
 After five years of study three of the university and institute scientists have discovered how to 1ay down an oil film twenty times thinner than that produced by the petroleum products hitherto tried, yet apparently retaining all the toughness that the thicker coat ing possessed. This film is 1-75OOO of an inch thick and in laboratory experiments it kept heated water from giving off vapor for one hun- dred days. Use is made of an inter mediate oil from petroleum, costing about S2 a barrel to which is add ed a small amount of a cheap or ganic acid. The process si so simple that the wonder is it was not dis covered before, it is said.
 NEW METHOD IS CHEAP
 The thin film cuts present oil costs by twenty-five times, and it takes such small amount to cover a great water surface that no bad taste or deleterious effect will be noticeable. The acid is present in such minute quantities that it is entirely negligible as being pos sible agent in rendering the water unfit for any use.
 Henry pcnnywitt Government weather forecaster for the Pittsburgh area, enters into the experiment with the statement that he can predict fog twelve hours in advance. This means that at midnight hour, after he has given the word of fog due the next morning, the scientists on their fleet of boats will set out at Rice's Landing to lay down blank ct of oil several miles long over the Monongahela. At dawn, unless some flaw develops in the carrying out of the experiment, the observers stationed along the river from Rices Landing to McKeesport expect they will see the sun through a clear
