LABOR BOARD FACES
 NEW WAGE DEMANDS
Railroad Unions Lining Up Tor Increases lotalling Si5O,00O,000

Chicago. May i4.--Nirtnally at A standstill for month. the United States Railroad Labor Board resumes functioning today. facing reports from railroad labor circles indicat- ing concerted drive by the unions for increases in wages that may total si5o. 100000 or more annually
 Since April r. when terms Of three Of it's members expired, the board has been unable 10 decide dis putes before it as the vacancies were not filled until last Friday, when President Harding reappointed Judge Barton Of Memphis and Horace Ba- ker and named F.. r. Grable of De- troit, former head of the mainte- nance of way organization, to All the vacant labor post.
 The first of several docketed wage disputes in which a decision is ex- pected is the Philadelphia and Read ing case. Certain classes of em- ployes have asked for a ten per cent increase in addition to restoration of the wage rates in effect prior to the cut of July l last, retroactive to that date.
 Reports from union men previously indicated that wage increases would be sought on all roads where agree ments were signed terminating the shop crafts strike of last July. Other l reports have stated shopmen are ne- with the New York Central, | Baltimore and Ohio and the Pitts burgh and Lake Erie for increases totalling s5o,000,0o0 annually. Should these conferences fail of result the labor board probably would review the disputes and hand down decisions.
 In the majority of wage disputes now before the labor board increased cost of living and the general tend sncy of other industries to boost wages are cited as arguments.

Remains of Aviators Who Had Been
 Missing Since Last December
 San Diego, Cal. May 14.-With the bodies of two men found Saturday near the wreckage of an airplane on Cuyamaca mountain east of here, positively identified as those of Col. Francis Marshall and Lieut.. Charles Webber army officers here today awaited instructions from relatives of the men before going ahead with plans for disposing of the bodies. h. dications were that the airplape in which Col. Marshall and Lieut.. Web Der were attempting to fly from San Diego to Tucson, Ariz., had flown too low over pine forest, had struck some of the trees and crashed to the ground. The airplane also had caught fire, presumably after it struck the ground charring the bodies. As the skulls of the aviators were crushed, 1t is believed they died instantly on the ground
 Identification became possible when Col. Marshall's name was found in | the cap of one of the men. Until |, the fate of the two men had | been undetermined since December ast when they undertook their flight o Tucson and disappared.

SELECTING POOL SITE
Mystery Surrounds Place Which Will Be Suggested as Substitute for North End Park.

That a substitute proposal, calling for a swimming pool in another sec- ton of the city, will be offered when the mayor calls a public hearing for the purpose of receiving an express sion of sentiment on the placing of such pool in north end park, was stated today by some of those who oppose the present plan.
 Details of the plan are being with held, but it was said that the new pool is in section of the city that can be better policed than can the wooded location of last years swim ming pool, and where an abundance of city water can be furnished at all times. The poor flow of water in north end park would result in an insanitary pool, 1t is claimed.

 hni in Den at Rome Convention
By The Associated press.

By The Associated Press,
 Rome. May ii,-The ninth eob- gress Of the International Woman's Suffrage Alliance was opened here to- day with 200 delegates representing 70 foreign nations and i.200 dele- gates from various parts of Italy. The large Italian attendance is believed to be due In part to Premier Mussolini's expressed interest in the movement.
 The delegates were welcomed 10 the city by the royal commissioner, slg- nor cremonesi, who was followed by Premier Mussolini. The premier was given sustained ovation.
 Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, presi- dent of the alliance. also delivered an address.
 We do not come to Rome this year to hold our ninth congress as timid suppliants for small favors." she said. The majority of us are enfranchised and we are part of the collective rul- CTS of the nations"
 Then turning to the premier. she said:
 "Signor Mussolini you are the most talked of man in all the world today. Men tell us that you stand for order, for unity, for patriotism, for better and higher civilization. These are OUT four ideals too. We stand for educated men and women, for schools for every child. for work and big wages for all for better homes and for tender and more scientific care of children that they may grow to build | the better order of things.
 We have asked the civilized gov ernments of the world to endorse our plea and our program. We ask this government to do so for Italy Is now among the minority on the woman question and we dare to hope 1t will De your government. Signor Mussolini, hat will lead this land of ancient re- 1own into the modern majority"

STRIKE OF UNEVEN
 IS NOT OVER WAGES
Walk-Out Is Reply to Dismissal Of
 Union Workers

It was brought unofficially to the attention of Albert s. Jourdan. super intendent of the New Britain division of the Connecticut Light X Power Go this morning, that the strike in which 26 of the company's linemen are par ticipating without having made any demands on the company. Is to re- suit in a demand that five employees recently discharged be again given employment
 Up to this afternoon, however, no such demand had been made. A small number of the workmen returned to work this morning, the majority re- maining away, MT. Jourdan told the Herald" Saturday afternoon, one of the gangs of workmen, known as the Southington gang, which is stationed in that town but under orders of the local office, brought their truck to this city and turned it in, announcing that they had decided to join the New Britain strikers. This morning that entire gang returned to work. They explained to the superintendent that they were laboring under misappre- HenSlOIl, lIle ndluTe Ol WIllCIl "dS llot announced and that they were pre- pared to start operations again. They were allowed to take up their work.
 Claim Drive At Union
 Some of the striking employes say the discharge of five of their fellow workmen was a step in an attempt to break up the linemen's union of which all five were said to be mem bers and leaders. Included in those discharged was one of the foren1en. The others are reputed to be first class linemen. Other workmen of shorters experience or lesser ability were kept on the job because, the strikers declare, they either were not connected with the union or were not prominent in its activities
 The question of wages, it appears | does not enter into the disagreement | All linemen received an unsolicited | increase in salary about two weeRA | ago, shortly after the five men were discharged, it Is said.

Summary Is Printesl

By The Associated Press.
 | London, May 1l.-What purports
 to be a summary of the Russian note to Great Britain Is printed under a
 Moscow date line today by the Daily Herald, the labor newspaper. The article says that the soviet govern ment's reply proposes a conference Of plenipotentiaries to discuss not only Lord Curzon's recent communication but the whole problem of Anglo Russian relations with view to es- ta blishing general understanding. The main theme of the note. says the article, Is that the Russians have equal grounds of complaint. Russia has always wished. and Great Brit ain has always declined to discuss the relations between the two coun- tries. The note contends, says the Herald. that many of Lord Curzon's charges are based on documents sup piled by secret service agents which are always of doubtful authenticity.
 General Denial
 Dealing separately with the British charges, the Moscow government says they are either fabrications or falsi fications. It declared its willingness to abide by the decision of the pro- posed conference with regard to the three mile limit, the article asserts, and adds that as an evidence of good will Russia has released all British trawlers.
 The note is said to admit that the reply to the Hodgson protest against the Brtchkavitch execution was un- usual in tone but the British repre- sentative in Moscow annoyed the soviet foreign office by persisting in sending a note after he had been told | the Russian government was unable to discuss question of only domestic 
 Russia cannot deal with other countries except on footing of equality, the resume declares and if the rulers of Great Britain realize and accept this, the chief reason for the present abnormal relations be- tween the two nations will disappear.
 The soviet government emphasizes he dangers which would follow break and says that compared with :hese dangers the points in dispute Ire trivial.
