THE .'.MORNING . OREGONTAN, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 23, 1920 STRIKE SITUATION T THOUGH 1 EO President Now Deems Action Unnecessary. MEN REPORTED RETURNING "Vacationists" at Chicago Demand Recognition of Rank Before Going ' Hack. WASHINGTON, June 22. A report on the railroad strike situation was laid before President Wilson at to day's cabinet meeting by Secretary Payne, acting In his capacity as director-general of the railway admin istration, but action was delayed after President Wilson had declared that the situation was so Improved that no action was necessary by the gov ernment. The general opinion in the cabinet was that since the wage award of the railway labor board when made would be retroactive to May 1, other action would be unnecessary unless the strike took a far more serious turn. , PHILADELPHIA, June 22. The peak of the- railroad strike in this city is believed to have been reached, and it is reported that 800 strikers will return to work tonight. The strike apparently has been checked, although Ftrike leaders say a big walkout will come Friday. Railway officials say some strikers returned to their posts- today and there was a slight improvement in freight movement. It was reported that Governor Sproul contemplates sending a request to the United Slates railroad labor board, asking an imme diate decision on the demands for In creased wages. Large numbers of loaded coal cars are accumulating in the anthracite region. Coal dealers say coal held up r.ow because of lack of shipping facilities cannot be replaced as the market is millions of tons behind. Merchants in Pennsylvania cities af fected by the freight embargo are pressing motor trucks , into service. Only foodstuffs are being thus trans ported. , WATERBURY. Conn.. June 22.

The "railway vacationists" men iwho quit' work April 1 in defiance of the regularly recognized brotherhoods today sent a letter to President Wilson notifying him that the strikers will accept no settlement which does not provide for their return to the seniority rank held before they quit work. STATE BODY SUSTAINED SUPREME COURT HANDS DOWN KERR V CASE DECISION. Very probably his wife has . thrown her Influence into the balance in favor of the present decision. In the common way of looking at such mat ters one Is unable to understand why any woman should forego the oppor tunity to be mistress of the White House. But if you had been In the White House as a daughter; if you had seen your mother die there "and your father broken in health, and otherwise given cause for acute un happiness. you would understand the other side of it. Palmer-Cox. Contest On. . -Omitting the consideration of duty, the sane and wholesome point of view which aims toward the most intelli gent management of one individual's personal life would lead Mr. and Mrs. McAdoo toward just the decision they have taken in favor of the comforts of a competence and those satisfac tions of family and children that go with private life. The consequences of the decision on the course of the convention are, of course, obvious. - It leaves Palmer and Cox the chief contenders, with theii relative strength Buch as to make probable a" tug-of-war much more rigid and long drawn out than the one which arose between Wood and Lowden at Chicago. HAGUE GQUHTTD CONTINUE TRIBUNAL- AVILL FUNCTION AS FORMERLY, BELIEVED. League of Nations Jurists Consider Dovetailing Plans of Root, Descamps. THE HAGUE, June 22. (By the Associated Press.) Discussions of the commission of jurists today strengthened the theory that the ex isting Hague arbitration tribunal will not be abolished if a high court of nations is formed, but, on the contrary, tliat the tribunal will not only function as formerly, but have a considerable part in selecting the high court judges. The commission took under con sideration today the possibility of dovetailing the Root-Philllmore plan with the plan proposed by Baron Des camps, for which a method was sug gested by Mr. Root. Though the efforts of the jurists working on the draft plan of the court of nations are entirely unaf fected. by politics, the delegates have been subjected to the usual flood of letters from organizations seeking to force national aspirations into the limelight. All these letters are cast side, as the members are firmly determined that their duty is merely to form a court. v The first Hague tribunal arbitra tion since the war will take place in September next, with Mr. Root as chairman of the arbiters. This has to do with a litigation begun before the war, involving Spain, France. Portugal and ftaly in the question of responsibility for damage to churches and property in Portugal during the revolution. County Commissioners Have Sole Authority to Rcqulatc Rates in Matters. OLTMPIA, Wash., June 22. (Spe cial.) Right of the public service commission to exercise jurisdiction over ferry service and rates Is denied by the supreme court in a decision written by Judge Mount and con curred in by seven associate justices. Chief Justice O. R. Holcomb filed a dissenting opinion. The decision is rendered in a mandamus action brought by James Allen, state high way commissioner, to compel the pub lic service commission to exercise jurisdiction In the regulation of rales and service of ferries. The commis sion refused to act, claiming that un der the statutes exclusive jurisdic tion is vested in the county commis sioners of the counties in which the ferries operate. The court holds the only legal ques tion involved is whether the public service commission law passed by the legislature in 1911 repealed by impli cation existing sections of the code relating to ferries. In the opinion of the court, failure of the legislature to expressly Include ferries within juris diction conferred upon the commis sion, and the fact that amendments to the .ferry laws were made by the legislature subsequently to the pas sage of the public service commission law, would Indicate it was not the purpose of the lawmaking body to re peal the ferry law. and aDoarsntlv it was convinced that ferries, being local to the counties in which they are sit uated, could be as well regulated b county commissioners as by the pub lic eervice commission.

It is possible to judge hundreds of thousands of people in a rough, approximate way by studying the publications they elect to buy and read. This is more often true in the choice of national periodicals, because in many cities a newspaper must be taken without a range of selection. For the purpose of commercial generalization, a study of a magazine itself is the best way of picturing the composite reader. The familiar exception of the college professor " who finds mental relaxation in the shilling shocker or the anaemic bookkeeper who feeds on virile tales of men inevitably described as "red-blooded", upsets a nicety of application as an invariable rule. However, no questionnaire, or other method of investigation of a circulation, leads to as safe a generalization as may be made after a study of the magazine itself.

Dr. Butler's telegram follows: "Answering your telegram of June 15, I am convinced that my words, spoken under the strain, turmoil and fatigue of the Chicago convention and in sharp revolt against the power of money in politics, were both unbecom ing and unwarranted, and that I should and do apologize to each and every one who felt hurt by what I said."
