King. demo- crat, Utah, who has been designated to conduct the inquiry, planning to hear the first witnesses immediately following his arrival here late Sat- urday night.
 Senator Ralph Cameron, republi- can, Arizona. who demanded an in- vestigation of reports that a s100,- 900 fund had been furnished largely by eastern copper interests to sup port democratic candidates, last night suggested the names of several persons whom it Is understood Sena- tor King expects to examine. Sena- tor King said he would continue the sessions through Saturday night and Sunday, If necessary, to complete the inquiry before the election, Tuesday.

Eruption Continues, but Internal
Rumblings Diminish
BY the Associated Press.

NAPLES. January S.-The eruption
of Mount Vesuvius. which began with
violence Wednesday, is continuing
The internal rumblings, however, are
constantly diminishing in force, indi-
eating, according to volca anologists,
a speedy termination of the phenom-
enon.
The crater last night presented a
fantastic spectacle. projecting a huge
umbrella shaped cloud of smoke, the
under surface of which was radiantly
red and the upper part lost in OBJ
scurity. Large incandescent ci.lders
constantly sailed upward from the
crater and disappeared into the
smoke.
The molten lava, which has been
flowing plentifully. is beginning to
harden, building up again the crater
formation which was torn away in
the eruption of 1905. The director
of the Vesuvius Observatory is re-
naming at his post.

URGES RESTRICTIONS REPEAL

LONDON, January 8 R.-The
Stevenson rubber restriction scheme
having played it's part, it Is probably
now due for fundamental revision,
says an editorial in the Westminster
Gazette, discussing the general in
advisability Of any scheme of protec-
ton or trade restriction.
THE Stevenson scheme" remarks
the paper, is, in fact, but part of
those protective schemes which re-
coil with boomerang effect upon the
heads of their authors. Even Secre-
tary Hoover admits that reprisals
merely augment the evil"
1t is the general opinion in the
rubber market that if the Stevenson
scheme were scrapped there would
still be an excess demand over the
supply of rubber for some time to
come. Rumors have been circulated
that the British government would
advise an early repeal of the re-
strictive legislation to the govern
ments concerned, but thus far 1t has
been impossible to obtain confirmation
of this.

PEACE IN RAILROAD
WORLD IS IN SIGHT
Goal of Those Who Guide
DeStinieS of Labor and
Capital Near.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

Peace in the transportation world.
long the goal of those who guide the
destinies of capital and labor, is at
last in sight.
Out of many months of conference
between railroad executives and Ia
Dor leaders-men VINO have fought
each other bitterly not merely Eefore
the United States LabCr Board, but
in the lobbies and committees Of Con
gresS, as we'll as in political campaigns
has come formula for the ADJUST
ment of industrial disputes.
Back of the La Toilette third party
movement last year were the railway
brotherhoods. They hal resorted to
political warfare because of a belief
that railroad executives We're cnga ged
in a systematic effort to wipe out the
labor standards achieved during war
time control of the railroads by the
Government.
All during the Wilson administration
the railroad brotherhoods and affiliated
organizations had found sympathetic
attitude in Washington. This was
evidenced by the passage of the Adam
son eight-ho law and policy of
open friendship by the then Director
General of Railroads, William G.. Nc.
Adoo.
Agree on Arbitration.
When the transportation act of 1920
really began in succeeding years under
the Harding administration to oper-
ate, some of the railroad executives
thought an opportunity had come to
break down what the railroad brother
hoods had gained. The struggle before
the United States Labor Board re-
vealed that both sides could not be
expected to obey the edicts of that tri-
bunal.
The ill-fated shopman's strike of
1922 found the country without ade-
quate machinery to bring industrial
peace on the railroads. Some of the
effects of that strike are still being
felt in defective equipment and ineffi.
cient service, though the railroads
counted as a victory their ability to
check the rising power of the unions.
Now the heads of the union and
the railroad executives have discov-
cred that it is far better for them TO
agree on machinery to main ain
peace than to be subjected to what
they consider the arbitrary acts of q
governmental body like the United
States Labor Board. 1t is also true
that much of the value of the trans.
portation act was lost, due to the fail
ure to use the local adjustment boar6a
in solving smaller disputes which
were constant sources of irritation.
With the railroad executives and
labor leaders in agreement now on a
practical plan for industrial peace.
there is little doubt that Congress
