They cooked up scheme whereby
the magazine writer would tell john
son that the N. r. A. was hooey, that
1t was not working, etc., and see how
he reacted.
The magazine writer was delighted
with thei dea. He lit into the N. r.
A., expecting johnson to hear him
through.
The general interrupted after the
second sentence with q terrific explo-
sion.
"Neanderthalers," rodents" and
dead cats" burst from his lips
faster than the magazine Driter
could take them down.
He shook his finger in the writer's
face, saying, you babies!" time and
again.
1t was probably the best interview
johnson ever gave.
Railroad Letter Denied.
Another yarn about johnson is the
one concerning the N. r. A. railroad
letter.
Railway executives received . letter
from the N, r. A., signed by johnson,
stating they should come under q
code. It always has been the inten-
ton Of the administration to handle
the roads separately, outside the code
system. So the executives were
alarmed.
Newsmen were tipped about the let
ter and went to Johnson. He sharply
denied he had written it and went
Misunderstanding again.
The explanation offered on the in
side is that some underling wrote the
letter and signed Johnson's name.
The administration has no intention
Of taking the railroads under o code.

Railroad Men and Laborers Threaten
Trouble Tomorrow.

CAMAGUEY, Cuba, March 2 R.-
Sixty thousand railroad men and Ia
borers threatened to join forces last
night in a general strike starting at
6 am. Saturday.
The railroad unions, disturbed by
strikes and simmering trouble in pro-
vincial labor ranks, moved to seek the
cooperation Of all labor organizations
in Cuba.
Three Of Is men arrested in labor
troubles, all of whom have refused
food for 96 hours, were removed to a
hospital tonight, as doctors said their
condition had become serious.
American officials at the Daiquiri
mines in Oriente Province telegraphed
President Mendieta urgently request
ing protection from enraged labor
elements. They said the small force
of soldiers on the scene was unable
to keep order.
THE region is in an indescribable
state Of anarchy" they said, armed
groups are blocking the highways,
property is being destroyed rap
idly; woods are being converted to
ashes, and coconut groves wasted; $50
sheep and goats have been killed.
Groups armed with every sort Of

INTEREST IN KUSSU,

ANN ARBOR, Mich, March 2 LR.-
The priced KuSsu Of the University of
Michigan Museum was viewed with
new interest yesterday following the
disclosure that 1t was intimately asso-
ciated with the early life of the ruler
Of the great Manchu empire.
The Kussu. which is an intricately
woven Oriental tapestry, once was
owned by Henry Pu-Yi, who Thurs
day became the Emperor Kang Teh.
Eleven years ago, so the story goes,
Pu-Y was financially embarrassed
and wanted to get married. To tide
himself over he sold some of the fam
lily heirlooms, among the Kussu. The
late Mrs. Frederick Stevens Of Grand
Rapids, Mich, who at that time was
travelling in the Far East with her
husband, bought the Kussu and pre-
Sented 1t to the university.
Even Henry's seven-digit salary as
Emperor, museum officials say, cannot
buy back the Kussu.

definite injustice to the people of the
Philippine Islands themselves, little
short of denial Of independence
itself. To change, at this time, the
economic provisions Of the previous
law would reflect discredit on our
selves.
TN view of the fact that the time
element is involved. suggest that the
law be amended as I have above sug-
gested and that the time limit for
the acceptance Of the law by the
proper authorities and by the people
of the Philippine Islands be sufn-
GENTLY extended to permit them to
reconsider it.
For SO years the relations between
the people of the Philippine Islands
ard the people Of the United States
have been friendly and of great
mutual benefit. I am confident that
if this legislation is passed by the
Congress and accepted by the Philip
pines we shall increase the mutual
regard between the two peoples during
the transition period. After the at
tainment Of actual Independence by

"The law firm Of which I am
a member, was employed by National
Air Transport, as Ohio counsel, in
October, 1880, long after it had OBJ
tanned its airmail contract. National
Air Transport is the oldest airmail
operator, I believe. Outside Of the
fact that air law is new, most Of
the work I did involved the usual
routine work Of the ordinary business
