CHICAGOANS WALK TO WORK
AS STREET CARMEN STRIKE

Chicago, Aug. 2.-Twenty thous-
and motormen, cOnC -,ctors ana
guards on surface and elevated lines
went on strike at / o'clock yester-
day morning against II per cent
wage reduction, and the greater
part Of the working portion of Chi
cago's nearly 100000 persons was
forced to seek improyised transpor
tation.
As usual, all rolling stock availa-
BILE, including every variety of wheel
ed, pullable, pushable or motorized
vehicle, was inadequate, and the
brunt of the traffic fell on "Shanks'
Mare" Thousands started early
afoot and from well before dawn
streets and avenues leading to the
business and manufacturing dis
tricts were crowded with pedestrians
Streets in the downtown districts
with the calling of the trike auto
matically became one-way thorough
fares. But even that action by the
police department was not enough TO
avoid badly tangled Jams of traffic
once the honking, shouting hordes Of
motor-car drivers began pouring
their steady streams Of workers in
to the business center.
Hundreds of iitney busses from
surrounding towns were on the Job
with the break of day. They were
summoned days before bv Charles
C. Fitzmorris, Chief of Police, when

strike appeared to be inevitable.
The walkout really began at II
o'clock Monday night. when the
surface car men ending runs at that
hour tool their cars to the barns.
From then on, as runs were finished,
the motormen and conductors left
off work, and in the early hours Of
the morning the number Of cars on
the streets gradually dwindled to
zero.
Negotiations have been under way
between the surface line workers
and owners for several days, after
posting Of the order for a wage re-
duction. All efforts to bring about
an agreement between the company
and the workers were announced as
failures late yesterday. Last night
5000 surface car men crowded lrs1
ther union headquarters and excit-
edlv shouted unanimous decision to
strike. while 1000 others, unable to
get into the building, stood in the
street and echoed that sentiment.
The elevated employees, who had
called a meeting for tonight to dis
cuss concerted action with the sur
face men, then held separate
meeting. and, after members Of the
executive committee had charged
they had been "double-crossed" by
the surface men, unanimously voted
to cooperate in the strike.

Especial TO The Gazette)

Washington, D. c., Aug. 2.-What
will be the next move, if any, Presi-
dent Harding will take in order to
bring about settlement of the rail
strike?
This is the question which is puZ-
zling official Washington today follow
ing the refusal of the railway execu-
tives to accept the plan of President
Harding for a settlement of the diff
ferences between the warning factions
and the answer is vet to be answered.
From circles well informed it is de-
clared that the President will make
no further move at this time to bring
about a settlement of the strike. He
expects that the shopmen will adopt
the plan proposed by him, and then
the next move will be up to the rail-
way officials to make a move. In
fact, it is thought Il settlement can
only be brought about by derict ne
gotiations between the railway heads
and their striking shopcraftsmen. 1t
is thought that the President and his
official advisers will content them
selves with leaving the responsibility
for the failure to end the strike on the
shoulders of the railway operatives.
So far as can be learned the President
does not intend to make any reply to
the railway heads statement refusing
to accept his plan.
The President saw number of visi-
tors TODAY including Secretary of Com
merce Hoover, Senators Lodge and
Edge and Chairman Lasker, of the
Shipping Board Lodge, Hoover and
Edge refused to make any statement
while Mr. Lasker said his visit to the
White House had nothing to do with
the rail strike. Mr. Lasker said the
Shipping Board have available at once
enough vessels to bring 100000 tons
of coal from Europe to the United
States, providing loading facilities
can be arranged.
New York. Aug. 2.-Railway eXecu-
tives yesterday rejected the proposal
of President Harding that striking
shopmen be reinstated without forfeit
ing. seniority rights, but accepted con-
ditionally the other two suggestions
made by the White House for settle

Statement BY Senator SwansOR

Senator Swanson gave cut the
following statement today to the
Gazette correspondent in reference
to the primary yesterday: The
overwhelming majority accorded in
the democratic primary was indeed
most gratifying and it touches me
very deeply to have this continued
confidence and esteem of the Vir-
ginia democracy. | shall shive to
do my utmost to prove worthy of
this evidence of their regard. The
campaign has left no sore spots
anywhere and will strengthen de-
mocracy and make all the demo-
Gratis unite to carry the state in
the election in November by very
large majority and obtain solid
democratic delegation in Congress.
"This evinces a militant demOc-
racy determined not only to hold
the nine Congressional districts,
which have always been demo-
cratic. but to redeem the ninth dis
trict and make it democratic.
81 shall remain here this week
attending to official business and
then take a much needed vacation
of several months.

week at McCoc% Field, Dayton, Ohio.
to supplement tests being made at
Bowling Field, Washington.

perimentS will be under the direc-
ton of army experts in night flying
and the plane will be equipped with
search lights and other necessary
equipment for flying in darkness af-
ter which actual flights at night will
be made.
1t is the hope Of Post Office officials
that this added feature to the postal
service will prove successful as 1t
will further increase the efficiency OF
a most important branch of the Post
Office Department
All previous records for the pro-
duction of stamped envelopes were
broken the other day when the Unit
ed States Stamped Envelope Agency
of DAYTON. Ohio, which manufactures
envelopes for the post offices through
out the country, turned out a record
production of 3,54S,0O0 envelopes.
According to William w. Barre, who
sufperviseS the government envelope
productions. he railroad strike has
not in any way interrupted the steady
OUTPUT of envelopes for the Post Of
flee Department.

As the natives are very fond OF

they would be very acceptable and
