ORGANIZED LABOR
PLAGES DEMANDS
BEFORE CONGRESS
Associated Press Report
WASHINGTON Aug. . Organised
labor' a remedy for the nigh cost of liv-
ing a bill that wond turn over the rail-
roads to the public operating officials
and labor was presented to congress
Tuesday by men high in the council of
the organisation. It was declared with
utmost frankness conditions were so des-
perate it might be necessary to advocate
a firing squad for profiteers.
With equal frankness membera of the
honse interstate commerce committee
indicated during the examination of War-
ren 8. Stone grand' chief of the Broth-
erhood of Locomotive' Engineers 'and
Frank Morrison secretary of the Amer-
ican Federation of Labor that the bill
embodying what haa come to be known
aa the "Plumb' plan" was inadequate
and failed to strike the high price evil
against which people throughout the
country are clamoring. .
Deny Attempt to letlmldata. ;
Two union officials for five hours
stood np in defense of the bill and an-
swered a rapid fire of questions. During
the long .discussion attended by an at-
tentive audience including many women
the labor leaders made strong denial of
reports that they were attempting to in-
timidate congress by threats to strike or
chop off the political heads of members
voting contrary to their desires. There
was a broad intimation that the public
ownership plan if not enacted into law
would be taken to the convention of the
two big parties next year with the hope
oi aaving its indorsement written into
the platform.
Warning- was sounded by Seeretarv
Morrison that the burden of the leadera
might be too heavythat they might be
unable daring the period of unrest to con-
trol their workers in which ease he de-
clared there would be a revolution to the
extent of a general strike.
Around the whole theme of what the
two witnesses said was woven the ever-
rising cost of food mounting higher and
faster they insisted than the increase
in the workingman'a wages with no as-
surance that it would atop unless qnick
and drastic action waa taken by con-
gress. Both Mr. Stone and Mr. Morrison said
that wage increases offered only tempo
rary relief contending that prices of food
and clothing must come down after
wnicn tne wage demand pressure would
be lessened. They declared the oendina
bill would prove to be the first -step
toward lorcing down prices oy reducing
freight charges and expressed the be-
lief that despite the burden of bond buy
ing during the war the American people
would produce the funds necessary to
take the roads from private control.
While the committee listened by the
honr to opinions as to what the bill
would do there was no explanation of its
various provisions. Glenn E. Plumb its
autnor waa present to give tola but so
much time waa taken np with examina-
tion of Stone and Morrison that his state-
ment had to go over until Thursday.
As te Prefitserlag.
Discussing profiteering Mr. Stone said
that from 18 to 25 carloads of fruits and
vegetables were dumped at Cleveland
every day simply in order to keep up
prices.
Representative Win slow republican
Massachusetts engaged the witness in a
sharp colloquy which at times brought
laughter from the large crowd at the
hearing. Mr. Win slow wanted to know
what Mr. tttone thought congress should
have done. -
"Congress could bsve seen what was
coming months ago" the witness re-
plied. "Congress waa so busy playing
politics it could not think of the common
people. If there were no laws to deal
with the problem laws should have beea
passed."
"Would you be in favor of the appoint-
ment of a board to fix wages either
through an expansion of the interstate
commerce commission of a separate
board?" asked Representative Rsyburn
democrat Texas.
Mr. Morrison said this was for the em-
ployes to decide but he expressed the
opinion that such a plan would not work
out satisfactorily.
Mr. Ravburn said that under the Plumb
plan employes would be represented on
the wage board by a majority of about
2 to 1 and added: '
"It is one reason why I look with ap-
prehension upon the Plumb plan."

Railroad Brotherhoods: De-
mand Immediate Action
in . Wage Dispute
Associated Press Report
WASHINGTON D. O Auguat 6.
Acting aa a unit for the first time in the
presentation Of wage demands the 14
principal railroad anions in expressing to
Director - General Hines their disap-
proval of President Wilson's proposal
that congress create a commission to
consider increased pay. declared Wed-
nesday that wage questions must be set-
tled immediately. .
A general program to meet the present
crisis waa submitted to the director gen-
eral. It suggested that the money to
provide increased pay should come from
an appropriation by congress to be fol-
lowed by appropriate freight rate ad-
vances. This "temporary relief' must
be accompanied by . a determined effort
to reduce the cost of living.
Permanent solution of the railroad
problem was declared to depend upon the
removal of private capital aa the sole
purpose of operation and the director
general accordingly was asked to recom-
mend to President Wilson that he at-
tempt to obtain early passage by con-
gress of organised labor's biDKo elimi-
nate private capital from control of the
railroada and to give the employes a
share in the profits. The unions de-
clared the - belief of the workers that
transportation rates should be sufficient
to guarantee Just wages maintain the
properties and give equitable returns on
money invested. '
Acting Aa One Body. 1
Interesting as were the suggestions for
removing the menace of a nationwide
strike the unified action of the 14 or-
ganisationa attracted equal attention.
Labor leaders who were questioned de-
clined to say whether the unions would
act as a whole hi the future but de-
clared they were going through with the
present situation aa one body. The re-
sult will be to nut the solid weight of
2000000 persons virtually the entire
rail transportation personnel of the
United States back of the demands
with the possibility aa never before of
disaster to the whole country in case a
general strike should ensue.
Co-operation between the four great
brotherhoods engineers firemen con-
ductors and trainmen for the first time
several years ago proved the power of
united action in passage oi the Aaamson
act. .
The present situation waa said to be
similar but infinitely more dangerous.
Not only are the four brotherhoods in-
volved but all the other unions also
which have to deal with maintenance of
equipment and the moving of trains-

He declared that cargoes could be as-

Inquiry among some of the jobbers
present at the conference developed the
fact that not much freight received by
them originated in New Orleans al
though Mr. Morgan advocated the New
Orleans service believing that 1000 tons
cargo twice a month could be assured
the Ward line if they would put on such
a service between Houston and New
Orleans.
Mr. Thomas said bis boata have a
deadweight carrying capacity of from
2500 to 8000 tons of cargo.
Mr. Morgan said he already had
propositions from other lines plying be-
tween Houston and Tampico but pre-
ferred the Ward line service ae they
called at mora Mexican ports than did
the other lines.
An effort will also be mode to divert
freight 'from interior points now' going
through other ports to Houston it was
stated. It developed that lumber com-
prised most of the cargoes from Beau-
mont to Mexican points while shipments
from Houston would include lumber yet
it would be composed largely along mis-
cellaneous lines.

Associated Press Report.
WASHINGTON. Aug. . President
Wilson issued a formal statement
Wednesday -night saying that the "frank
statement" made by Viscount Uchida as
to Japan's policy regarding Shantung
"ought to serve -to remove msny of the
misunderstandings which had begun to
accumulate about this question. N
. References to the Uchida ststement as
to the agreement between Japan and
China in 1015 "might be misleading" the
resident said" if not commented upon
i the light of what occurred in Paris.'
The president's statement made public
through the state department follows:
"Tbe government of the United States
haa noted with the greatest interest the
frank statement made by Viscount
Uchida with regard to Japan's future
policy regarding Shantung. . Tbe state-
ments ought to serve to remove msny of
the misunderstandings which bad benn
to accumulate about this question. But
there are references in the statement to
an agreement entered Into by Japan and
vuiua ui iffxu duiui uiiu m iuumuiui
if not commented upon in the light of
want occurred in fans when tne clauses
of the treaty affecting Shantung were
under discussion. I therefore take the
liberty of supplementing Viscount Uchi-
da's statement with the following:
"Tbe conference on the 80th of April
when this matter was brought to conclu-
sion among the heads of the principal
allied snd associated powers the Jap-
anese delegates. Baron Makino and Vis-
count Chinda in reply to a question put
by myself declared that: .
Retain Privileges Only.
"Tbe policy ot Japal is to hand back
the Shantung peninsula in full sover
eignty to China retaining only the eco-
nomic privileges granted to Germany and
the right to establish a settlement under
the usual conditions at Tsing Tao.
" The owners of the railway will use
special police only to insure security for
traffic. They will be used for no other
purpose.
" The police forces which will be com
posed of Chinese and such Japanese in-
structors as the directors of the railway
may select will be appointed by the Chi-
nese government'
"No reference was made to this pol-
icy being in any way dependent upon the
execution ot tne. agreement of 1919 to
which Count Uchida sppesrs to hare re-
ferred. Indeed. I feel it my duty to say
8
3
that nothing that I agreed to must be
construed as an acquiescence on the part
of the government of tbe United States
In the policy ot notes exchanged between
China and Japan in 1015 and 1018; and
reference was made in the discussion to
the enforcement of the agreements of
1015 and 1018 only in case China failed
to co-operate fully in carrying out the
policy outlined in tne statement of Baron
Makino and Viscount Chinda.
"I hsve of course not doubt that Vis-
count Uchida had been apprised of an the
farticulars of the discussion In Paris and
am not making this statement with the
idea of correcting his but only to throw
a fuller light ot clarification upon a situ-
ation which ought to bs relieved of every
shadow of obscurity or misapprehension."
