"BIG FOUR" BROTHrlHOOD HAS
CONFERENCE AT ME HOUSE
TO
COVBflt
m
NATO
N
WASHINGTON, Nor. 14. Aroused . machinerr of the federal govern
by the plans of the railway men's ment In motion to avert if . possible
brotherhoods to demand wage in- the threat of a paralysis of the coun-
creases, President 'Wilson has set the try's transportation systems, so Tital
to the war.- At conference with
the heads of the "big four" brother
hoods at the White House on Novem
ber S2, President Wilson will appeal
to the labor leaders to defer any
struggle until after the country has
passed through the period where its
transportation systems are so vital
to the conduct of the war.
With the announcement ot this
conference, tt was dtsclosed that
President Wilson, while entertaining
every hopo tor a complete agree
ment, does not Intend to penult the
country's transportation systems to
be tied up by a strike at this critical
time In the nation's history, even if
It becomes necessary tor the govern
ment to operate the roads.
It vras disclosed today that Judge
William I Chambers, head ot the
federal board ot, mediation and con
ctlttatlon. already had been holding
conferences with the heads ot the
"big four" brotherhoods. The status
of the proceedings so far, shows a
disinclination ot the brotherhood
heads to , commit themselves to a
plan of arbitrating the differences,
and the hope of the government ne
gotiators is for an agreement which
will postpone any disruption ot the
transportation system until after the
war.
The following letter from Presi
dent Wilson to Judge Chambers ex
presses the president's attitude to
ward the situation:
"My Dear Judge Chambers May
I not exress my very deep and se
rious interest in your efforts to bring
the railroad executives and the broth
erhoods engaged in train operation
to an agreement that there shall be
no interruption in the relations on
either side until ample opportunity
shall have been afforded tho United
States board of mediation and con
ciliation to bring about, If possible,
an amicable agreement and that in
the event of a failure to bring about
such an, agreement that any contro
versy that may hava arisen will be
submitted to arbitration in accord
ance with the provisions of the New
land's law.
"I take it for granted that your
efforts will succeed because It is In-

conceivable to me that patriotic men
should now for a moment contem
plate the Interruption of transporta
tion, which Is so absolutely neces
sary to the safety ot the nation and
to its success In arms as well as to
Its whole Industrial life, but I want,
nevertheless, to express my deep per
sonal Interest In the matter and to
wish you Godspeed. .
"The last thing I should wish to
contemplate would be the possibility
ot being obliged to take any unusual
measure to operate the railways and

your efforts that I shall look forward
with assurance to your success,

STATE MAN HUNTERS
WIT SUM UNTIL
IE(
The eight penitentiary guards from
Salem who are now diligently sour
ing the hills east of Oregon City in
search cf the trio of negroes who es
caped f:cm a state road crew rJove.n
ber Hth have entered into a compact. ve
agreement that neither of theia sh?ll
shave until the convicts are again In
the clutches of the law. One weeft has
passed and no coon convicts. Joe Kel
ler, the parole officer In charge of the j
man hunt is steadily being hid behind ;
a thick groth of smoky colored vhis-;
kers. Though his whiskers are light;
the other guards ara more dark in ap
pearance about their tonsils.
Monday afternoon after the guards
had enjoyed a short nap prepatory to
continuing their search for the es
caped negroes, Kelle" and several of
the guards were walking up Mam
street in Oregon City, heading fo:
restaurant to appease, their hunger.
Clad in high-cut boots, shabby, muddy
trousers, ragged mackinaw coat3 and
slouchy caps, and their faces which
itched for a seemingly forgotten shave
shambled along the street. On the op
posite side, a refined lady and smr.ll
daughter tripped lightly along when
the little girl caught sight of the un
kempt prison guards arid asked her
mother in frightered tones:
"Mamma, why fcre those tramps Al
lowed on the street. Look! They
even have big guns tied on their coats
Let's hurry mamma, they'll hurt as!"
While on the other side of the street
Joe Keller talked longingly of home
and the kids and secretly vowed thut
his mercies are at an end with the
trio of black convicts and that if he
will ever see them again, they would
come back with him, either in pieces
or whole, as the negroes should
choose.

Laid to Rest

HERE IS JUST AS MUCH ma- ,
terial in the new coat collar of j
washable fabric it la the shape j
that Is different. Put away all
your wide sailor collars, unless they
are ot fine, delicate fabric these you
may wear with indoor costumes but
the smart out-door collar now,.the one
you wear with your tailored suit for
fall, must be very long at the front
a j and rather narrow in width all around.
White collars in this shape give the
modish touch, and the longer the
points at th front, the smarter the
effect. Such collars do not taper to a
V from shoulder Mni to bust, but out
.Ine the front of the coat with straight
tdgns, and at the place of Joining the
collar Is cut straight across, making
a square edge, or 1j pointed down
wards In the well-known Puritan ef
fect. This style is well iilustrated in
the coat collar trimmed with stitched
bands of narrow braid, pictured today.
Note how long this collar is, and how
comparatively narrow at the shoulder
line. Any day in New York you may
see then collars on smartly dressed
women; though the materials of the
collars differ the shape is always the
same. A square-end collar, also com
ing well down the coat-front, Is of
white washable satin and on the
squared ends are square motifs of
couched silk cord. Gauntlet cuffs,
trimmed with the square motifs, come
well up toward the elbow.
A Jabot, If Not A Collar.
Some women dislike coat collars
of washable fabric and never wear
them; other women are never seen.
In tailored costume, without the fresh
bit of white turning back over the
coat collar of the suit It is all a
matter of taste, though it seems a pity
that so many stout women, to whom
uch collars add nothing and detract
much, should be the ones who are
most weddCd to them. A great deal
la being dene for the stout woman in
th way of new sveltllne inspired
nodes that adapt current fashions to
'he proportions of the stout flsure
and make coats and frocks rracpful
in spite of obstreperous curves; bu
the stout woman spoils It. all when
she spreads a white expanse of collar
over her eioulders. She should sr

Jabot effects which swathe tho throV
trimly and give a narro.v line of whl'e
between tho coat-fronts.
These stock and Jnbot ccmbtnatlcti'
have come in with the vojruo for mili
tary fashions. The modem soldier
dor not wear a tail slock with soft
frills or pleatings of fabric below;
but other soldiers In other days have
affected the style and, somehow or
other, the effect is distinctly triir and
pleasing with a sever tailored suit
and military hat. The Jabot-stock pic
tured Is one of the exclusive models
of the season the sort one looks for
not on the neckwear counter but un
der It., where hifch priced bits of dain
tiness are dlsplav!d on rliiM phelves
under inverted light Peal filet in.
sertlon is Joined to fine white net, the
net stock tucked to give It morn body,
and the net Jabot pleated thickly Into
the front of the stock. These pleats
are pressed all the way down and fall
softly, giving the Jabot a might flare
at the edge. A beautiful feature,
worth noting, is the hand embroidered
design which covers the Joining of filet
banding and net, in the Jabot.
Jabots are mostly of net or net-top
lace in the best models. There are
plenty of lawn and organdie Jabots
among neckwear bargains but they
lack the exquisite softness and grace
of the Jabot made of filmy material,
and they give an effect of stiffness and
severity rather unbecoming to most
women, who require softness and
grace in neckwear belongings. A Jabot
stock Is the easiest thing -in the world
to make at home and a pretty model
to eopy is one of allover embroidered
net The stock is simply a straight
strip of the net long enough to go
around the throat and about nine
