BIG UXES REPORT BREAKS
Freight Moves at Chicago; Stock
yards Announce Gains.
CHICAGO, April 14. The first Im
portant break in the ranks of insurg
ent railroad employes in the Chicago
terminal district came today when
railroad 'officers announced that
groups of strikers on the Pennsylva
nia, the Soo Kite and the Chicago,
Rock Island & Pacific had decided to
return to work.
Edward Corrigan, vice-president of
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire
men and Enginemen, said enginemen
on a number of roads had voted to go
back to work and would report ior
duty tomorrow or Friday.
The first break was reported among
the Pennsylvania men who voted to
return if the road would not cancel
their seniority rights. Later Rock
Island switchmen sent a delegation to
confer with road officers. Some of
the men returned today and the
others planned to report tomorrow.
More Frelgrht Moving;.
W. F. Schaff, manager of the New
York Central, said 22 firemen and
eight switchmen returned to work.
He said the New York Central was
taking care of 80 per cent of normal
freight traffic and moving 1000 cars
daily in Chicago.
While insurgent leaders continued
to claim that the strike was growing,
the general managers' association an
nounced that more freight was mov
ing in Chicago today than on any day
since the strike started.
.. At the stockyards it was stated.
"although livestock receipts were far
from normal, they were steadily, im-

The Chicago yardmen's association
denied reports that L W. W. leaders
-were behind the switchmen's strike
and declared that John Grunau, head
'of the outlaw organization, had not
been deposed. ;
"Our conduct during the last 14
days will speak for itself," the state
ment said. "All of our meetings have
been open and have boon attended by
department of justice men who would
have arrested anyone who showed I.
W. W. tendencies."
Reports from central and far west
rn states indicated a continued im
provement in the strike situation.
Railroad workers returned at several
points and embargoes were lifted by
railroads.
Chicago railroad officials tonight
issued this statement:
"The Btrike situation in Chicago
showed a very material improvement
today, as indicated by the fact that
the roads involved operated 408 loco
motives, as compared with 765 nor
mally in operation. We look for fur
ther improvement tomorrow.
. "The movement of livestock Into
the stockyards showed an tncrease of
83 cars over the previous day 'and
there was an Increase of 71 cars of

SUMMARY OF STRIKE SITUATION SHOWS BREAK IN
WALKOUT IS ON.
(By the Associated Press.)
William Z. Foster, radical leader of the United States Steel strike
last fall, is directing genius behind the nation-wide strike of rebellious-
railroad workers, the department of justice announced in
Washington last night
ln support of this assertion, Attorney-General Palmer made pub
lic evidence of plans prepared by Foster-and his adherents to disrupt
the four big railroad brotherhoods and to organize all rail workers
into "one big union."' '
Reports from all sections Indicated that the peak of the strike
had been reached and that the return movement of. the striker had
begun. This was especially true in the middle west, the opening
scene of the strike movement.
In the east the strikers and railway managers who are supported
by the railway brotherhood chiefs continued to fight for the upper
hand. Although strikers, succeeded in adding a few recruits to their
ranks, the railways, assisted by hundreds of volunteers, made sub
stantial progress toward restoration "of normal passenger service.
The Increasing strength .of this volunteer support is reported to have
made a marked Impression on strike leaders and. both railways
and -union labor-leaders predicted that a break was Imminent in
eastern territory.
From the south, which has been but little affected by the strike,
came reports of better passenger service and a resumption of normal
conditions.
Coincident with their predictions that the "strike fever" was
dying out, railway brotherhood chiefs took a firm stand against
allowing their representatives to participate in any conferences
with governmental or railway officials at which representatives of
the newly-formed yardmen's association were present.
"There can be no compromise with Insurgents," declared W. G.
Lee, president of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, "and only
one settlement can be hoped for, and that in accordance with law-and-order
methods through authorized committees for established
organizations."
While many localities were beginning to feel the effects of food
and coal shortages, railroad officials have been able to date to pre
vent famine conditions.
Railroad delivery of mall, while greatly delayed in some districts,
is moving with increased regularity.
Freight embargoes have caused a few additional industries to
close down, but there has been no appreciable change the past few
days.

COMMUNIST CHARGE DENIED
The Dalles Strikers Wear Army
Overcoats to Assert Patriotism.
THE DALLES, Or., April 14. Local
yardmen tonight denied charges that
the switchmen's strike was agitated
and fomented oy the communist par
ty of Russia. Tney declared that be
hind the strike was a demand for
wages duly presented to the raiiroads
and that the walkout was the climax
of an economic problem. Representa

this evening, . and when questioned
regarding.- the soviet . angle of the
strike they pointed to those coats and
said: "It isn't reasonable that we go
overseas to fight for the flag and
then join a movement which aims at

HITCHCOCK FOR HARMONY
SENATOR SAYS BRYAX, XOT
REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRAT.
Reasoas for Own Candidacy for
Presidency Set lrth in Speech
Delivered at Hastings, N'eb.
HASTINGS, Neb., April 14. United
States Senator G. M. Hitchcock in an
address here tonight declared one rea
son why he had consented to permit
use of his name as a presidential can
didate in Nebraska was because he
felt that if the state were to present
a candidate to the democratic con
vention "he ought to be a man who
is at least in harmony with the pres
ent attitude of the democratic party."
William Jennings Bryan, he de
clared, went to the Jackson day din
ner in Washington some time ago,
with a prepared speech in which he
practically challenged the leadership
of President Wilson and announced
himself as an advocate of an extraor
dinary programme at the approach
ing democratic convention."
Mr. Bryan's action at that time
"was regarded practically as an
avowal on his part," Senator Hitch-
cook asserted, "that he would be or
might become a candidate for the
democratic nomination for president.
The papers throughout the country so
construed his action. Personally Mr.
Bryan announced that he was not an
avowed candidate but that he might
be induced to become one. This was
followed in Nebraska by an effort on
the part of Mr. Bryan's brother to
organize a Bryan ticket 'of delegates
to the national convention. I was told
that a place upon that ticket had been
lef vacant for me if I would accept
it. I thought and I hoped at the time
I announced my candidacy that Mr.
Eryan would accept the challenge and
put his name before the democrats of
Nebraska against mine. . . . He
preferred not to .lo so."

Food Administrator..
(Copyright by the Sun and New Tork
Herald. Published by Arrangement)
NEW YORK, April 14. Reports
from two western states in the poll
of the republican county chairmen on
presidential preferences shows that
in Oregon, which has a preferential
primary on May 21. the first choice
as indicated in the poll is Major
General Wood. Governor Lowden is
second choice. Oregon has ten votes
in the convention at Chicago.
In Utah, where the republicans will
elect their eight delegates to the na
tional convention at a state conven
tion to be held in Price on May 3, the
order Is reversed. There Governor
Lowden Is the first choice, according
to reports of the leaders, with Wood
coming In as second -choice.
In Oregon, Herbert Hoover has an
even break with W illiam u. mc aooo
as the favorite of the democrats for
president, according to the republican
leaders. No other democratic possi
bility was mentioned.
McAdoo divided the first place hon
ors ' with President Wilson as the
democratic choice in Utah, according
to the republican reports. Attorney
General Palmer received one men
tion. . Last minute telegraphic dispatches
Indicate that in both states a wave
of popular sentiment for Herbert
Hoover is running high at the mo
ment. In Oregon it is reported the
enrolled republicans are talking about
his availability, while In Utah the
democratic leaders, including Gover
nor Bamberger, are asserting that
Hoover is the man to bring back their
party from the low ebb it has reached.
They say they do not care whether
he is a dyed in the wool democrat or
not. They think he can win, and that
suits them.
Canal Tolls Mr Btioord.
In Oregon no one issue stands out
as paramount in a compilation of the
answers of the county chairmen, but
"canal tolls" Is a brand new entry, not
referred to by any leader in any other
state so far.
The league of nations is the domi
nating issue In . Utah, with Ameri
canism well up in the list, varied in
the reports of the chairmen with "100
per cent" specifications", and coupled
with opposition to "Internationalism."
The high cost of living also is
troubling them in Utah, but it was
mentioned not at all in the reports
from Oregon.
One leader, who happened to be the
western organizer for Leonard Wood,
wrote that he would reply to the
questions asked without bias in spite
of his connection.
"In this state only three candi
dates for president on the republican
ticket have any strength." he de
clared, "namely. Wood, Lowden and
Johnson, and it is very plain that
Wood is strongly in the lead. This
statement applies to the entire state.
I have lived in Oregon for 43 years
and am familiar with political con
ditions. "As to the democratic candidates,
there is no question that Herbert
Hoover and McAdoo are under con
sideration. - However, the drift is
strongly away from the democratic
party, and there is no doubt that the
republican registration will" be three
to one for the democratic. My per
sonal opinion Is that McAdoo will
carry the labor vote of this state."
"The paramount issue of this cam
paign will be the kaiser-like attitude
of President Wilson and the wild ex
travagance of the demoyatic party
during the war.
Hoover Sentiment Grow.
A late dispatch from a special corre
spondent in Oregon reads in part:
"Oregon is going republican and
public sentiment in the last two
weeks js rolling strong for ,Herbert
Hoover. It appears now he will be
the first choice in the primaries, with
Wood second and Lowden third. The
people here are demanding a busi
ness man for president. They feel
Lowden has had some experience, but
look on Hoover as a native son, a
tried out business man."
Returning to the Utah situation, one
of the chairmen, whose "first choice"
vote was split, one-half to each can
didate, in the tabulation, wrote:
'Wood and Lowden seem to be about
equally talked of here at present.
with Lowden gaining daily."
Another made these observations:
"A great many republicans in the

state of Utah are opposed to a mili
tary man for president, and, although
General Wood has many ardent ad
mirers in Utah, as a lifelong repub
lican I think a mistake would be mads
if he were nominated, as his military
career will be played up In the cam
paign with the consequent loss of
votes. From observation and senti
ment expressed among the solid re
publicans in this oounty, 1 think Low
den Is first." ,
This is an extract for a special
correspondent's dispatch:
"Governor Bamberger and W. R.
Wallace, chairman of the democratic
state committee and former national
committeeman, believe that delegates
to the national convention from Utah
will go to San Francisco instructed
for Mr. Hoover, despite the fact that
he had already told the Hoover Re
publican club of California that, he
would accept the republican nomina
tion for president 'If it is felt that
the issues necessitate it and It is

strike, Mr. Palmer said, "poster. Pier
son. Reese and others of their asso
ciates of the revolutionary parties en
gaged in the endeavor to promote the
present strike.
"Lists of all railroad men who were
members of the communist or com
munist labor parties were sought."
he said.
"The names of all railroad workers
who were opposed to the present man
agement of the four brotherhoods also
were collected. Meetings were held
in hotels In New York, Chicago and
other cities where all of the plans
were laid.
"The basic agitation of these lead
ers was the destruction of the railroad
brotherhoods, the removal of their
leaders and the creation of the 'one
big union.' At first it was planned
that the I. W. W. should not figure
publicly in the strike, but John Gru
nau, leader In Chicago, deviated from
the original plans and allowed the
men to split the strikers into four
separate organizations.
"This caused some dissension, which
has resulted in the movement for the
'one big union.' Several conferences
were held at the I. W. W. headquar
ters in Chicago and other cities. Gru
nau had gone too far with the four
organizations to turn back and the
only way the 'one big union" could be
put over was through the railway
shopmen, who were urged to strike
under the 'one big union' banner and
force Grunau's union to follow suit,
reorganize and come into the 'one big
union.'
"It was realized that the I. W. W.
could not make headway because of
the prejudice and fear of those three
letters and the fact that the men
would not warm up to the organiza
tion. The 'one big union' Idea was
decided upon and Bidwell, a member
of the newly-formed engine men's as
sociation in Chicago, replaced Grunau.
Leader Are Radicals.
"Bidwell is confident he can swing
the four brotherhood tcnind the plan
provided the shopmen follow out his
plans."
Federal agents reported that a per
manent committee had been named to
manage the organization and that
each of these were "members of the
I. W. W. or would take orders from
duly accredited representatives of the
.'one big union.' Leading I. W. W.
men have been ordered to remain in
the background hereafter.
Mr. Palmer believed that the na

the chief communist for methods the
agent had employed In "attempting
to force recognition" of the Russian
soviet. Hutgers characterized as
"childish" Martens' contention, said
to have been made to his government,
that he had any influence In the mak
ing of peace. Martens also was told
that If he desired to force recognition
by the United States he should d It
through the power of the workers.
"All your hope either on small indi
vidual bourgeoisie or parties like the
socialist, anarchist or pacifists and
the middlemen la not only unfounded,
but contrary to well-established tac
tics." the letter said.
Martens then was instructed to

tries and to devote his time to driving
revolutionary plans forward.
