MEN 60 BACK AT OLD WAGES Senators Lodge, Townsend and Poln-dexte- r Renominated Republicans Win Mains Election by.Fafr Majority Danger of New War in the Balkans. By EDWARD W. PICKARD agreements entered Into SEPARATE shopmen and railways representing about one-fift- h of the country's ndleage last week brought about a break in the strike that has lasted for some 75 days and threaten-ed the nation's transportation facili-ties with demoralization. It Is be-lieved some other railways will soon make the same arrangement with the men, these Including the Rock Island, the Burlington and the Northern Pa-cific. Some of the big lines, notably the Pennsylvania, have not adopted the settlement plan. They assert they al-ready have won the strike and will not make terms with the men wtio went out. Of the roads accepting the agreements the most Important are: New York Central lines and subsi-diaries. Including Michigan Central. Iloston and Albany, nnd Rig Four: Chicago. Milwaukee and St. Paul; Erie; Chicago and Northwestern and its subsidiary, the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis and Omaha; Baltimore and Ohio; Seaboard Air iine; South-- i eni railway: New York. Chicago and St. Louis; The Motion; Wheeling and Lake Erie. The agreements are. as they should be. a compromise. All the strikers, ex-cept those proven guilty of acts of violence, are to be taken back within thirty days at the prevailing pay prescribed by the federal railway labor board, and In the shops where they were formerly employed, but not necessarily at the same Jobs. Tliore is no specific provision regarding the matter of seniority rights, but It Is believed this Issue can be worked out satisfactorily after the men are hack lit work. Any controversies arising from the strike that cannot be settled otherwise ore to be referred to a coin-missio- n to be established, consisting of six representatives of the labor or-ganizations Involved and six repre-sentatives of the railroads. This com-mission Is to remain In existence only until May 81, 19-- 3, and none of Its decisions nor the agreement In gen- - railroad boards. Negotiations could he successfully carried on and dis-puted questions settled If approached In good faith." HEARING on the motion to have Injunction obtained by Attorney General Daugherty chntiged Into a preliminary restraining onlcr until a trial began last week before Federal Judge WUkerson In Chicago, and the attorney general an-nounced that It would proceed despite the partial agreements reached. The temporary Injunction was extended ten days, but the court warned the government forces It would uot be further extended. The government presented tunny thousands of affidavits telling of acts of violence and threats and other circumstances, all tending to prove Its theory that a conspiracy existed, which In effect obstructed In-terstate commerce. Mr. Daugberty's determination to press (be case to a decision Is based on his belief that the principles at stake are more Important than any Immediate Isnue or effect. The Injunc-tion, he thinks, If granted beyond the ten days now fixed by the court, will not only protect the workers who have taken places of strikers on roads not in the settlement, but will reach the question of responsibility of union leaders for acts of violence. PRESIDENT HARDING and Davis were greatly pleased by the news of the partial strike settlement. The secretary said : ' "American Industry bus overcome the last obstacle lu the way of the greatest economic revival the nation has ever knowu. With the settlement of tae strike on many of the trunk line railways assured, the whole industrial machinery of the country is ready for a forwurd movement unprecedented In bur eci nomic history. "The disturbance in the bituminous and anthracite coal mining industries are in the past, and the CO0.U0O coal miners of the country are back at work. Our representatives In New England have advised me that In the textile workers' strike settlements are rupldiy enabling the mills to resume operations. "These three great Industrial dis-putes have been the only hindrances to the nation In its rapid recovery from tho Industrial depression which we faced a year ago. With them out of the way progress toward prosperity will be swift and sure." IT IS true, as Mr. Davis sajs, that the disturbances In t he coal mining Industry arc ended, but the disturb-ances In the minds of the consumers of coal are Just bcginnin'. The deal-ers, greedy, unscrupulous and con-scienceless, are demanding exorbitant prices for coal and the people are wall-ing, with little prospect of relief ex-cept In some states where the authori-ties have both the power and the will to check the profiteering. Meanwhile the congressional conferees have been Maine's electlcn, which used to bo considered h reliable Indication of re-sults I lu the nation generally in No-vember, took place .Monday, and the Republicans won by what the parly leaders professed to regard as satis-factory iiiiijoi-lties- , though naturally they were far below those of li)-l- ). Senator Frederick Hale's majority over Curtis, Democrat, was about :7.KK), and Governor Baxter bad a slightly larger margin over Putlungall. The four Republican congressional candi-dates were elected, but the Democrats Increased their membership In the state assembly from 15 to 40 and In the state senate from none to three. Republican leaders In Washington called the Maine results an endorse-ment of t lie adininlst ration, while the Democratic chiefs round satisfaction In the reduced size of the Republican majorities. Creek dehiote In Asia Minor TI1K complete;. Constant ine's troops those that were not taptmeil were withdrawn from the mainland lu a hurry and the Turkish National-ists occupied Smyrna in orderly man-ner. Then looting broke out, mid nil Thursday someone started a contlagru-tiol- l that destroyed the western part of the city. The Kemalists also oo cuplcd Brusa, burned by the tiering Greeks, and announced thai their capi-tal would be moved to Kouia. Their rejoicings over the victory were participated in by their country-men who adhere to the Constanti-nople government, and Iheie aS much talk among them of recovering tliat city from alien dominance and of again possessing Tbruce and the Dar-danelles. This brought a warning front all the allies that an attack again! the iieinrai zones of Ismld and the Dardanelles would mean war with the allies, ami British and I'.ulhin troops were concentrated in those regions. Probably the allies can leslrain the Turks, bur the danger In the Near East does not stop there and many wie stalcs-in- n are shaking their liemls over the prospects of n new war In the Balkans. Bulgaria is massing her forces on the Tbraclan frontier, while Jugo-Slavl- a and her n.ty Rumania are mobilizing to give the Bu'gars hat tie. The Set os, who themselves want pos-session of Salouica, ule deteini neil that Bulgaria shall not grab Tln-.ic- e and thus reestablish contact with tin) Turks. The Bulgarian pi ess s urg-ing the government to abandon di-plomacy and to light. England, which has been the friend of Greece, will not nc-ml- eral "shall be used or cited In any t Turk y or Bulgaria to get unit roversy between these pui'tles or between the railroads signing the same or any other class or classes of their employees In any other con-troversy that may hereafter arise." There Is to be no Intimidation nor op-pression of the employees who re-mained at work or those who took the places of strikers, and all law suits pending as a result of the strike are to be dismissed. CREDIT for arranging this Is evidently due mainly lo S. Davics Wartleld, president of the Seaboard Air line and bead of a se-curities concern which owns large, amounts of railway bonds. President Wlllard of the Baltimore nnd Ohio also was prominent In the peace ne-gotiations; and B. M. Jewell, head of the striking organizations, proved amenable to all suggestions looking toward a fair and reasonable settle-monr- . Mr. Warfield, In n statement g the agreement, made this per-tinent suggestion : "Regional railroad labor boards should bo properly nnd promptly es-tablished; a boaid named by each group of railroads that operate In each of tlte four rate-makin- g districts Into which the commission has di-vided tbe country; the men of eucti group of railroads to also orcnnlze wards to confer with tbe regional disputing over the ('ummins-WinsIo-coal distribution and price control bill, disagreeing as to Its application to In-trastate as well as Interstate ship-ments. Henry Ford Is the most vocifer-ous of the big coal consumers, and ac-cording to the latest reports he had not altered bis Intention to shut down the Ford plants. He charges that the Inter state commerce commission, through Us control over empty coal cars, "Is playing hito the hands of col prof-iteers under guise of regulations for the public good," nnd adds: "The same Interests which own the public utilities railroads and mines are using the commission as part of their scheme to fleece the public, and the scheme Is so simple that nobody sees It." CONSIDERABLY battered by results the "old guard" or the Republican party re-sumed Its mulling appearance Inst w.ek after the primary elections were li.'ld In Massachusetts, Michigan and Washington. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge won over Joseph Walker by a three to one vote, nnd will have to contest the election with William A. Gnston, who defeated Sherman L. Whipple for tbe Democratic nomina-tion. Senator Townsend of Michigan, who was opposed by three candidates, won bis renomlnatlon by a plurality of about 2.VKX) a notable victory since he was' hampered by the Issue of "Newberrylsm."
