Jrtrell Also Keqacsfs Employes
Be Allowed Cntil March 4 to
Complete Rebuttal.
C7TTCAGO, Feb. 17. Labor today
appeared before the railroad labor
board in an effort to check the rail
way executives drive against na
tional agreements. This drive. B. M.
Jewell, chairman of the employes'
committee, declared, was intended to
obscure the open shop movement and
an attempt to crush organized labor.
Mr. Jewell requested that the em
ployes be allowed until March 14 to
complete their rebuttal to the rail
roads. He also proposed
case be thrown out and
points be taken up in conference be
tween the carriers and the employes
Protest Immediately was entered
by E. T. Whiter of the carriers' com
mittee against delay and to proposals
of further conferences.
Eadlraa Turmoil Formffl.
He declared that the question the
1-oard faced was merely whether the
national agreements should be con
tinued. Frank P. Walsh, counsel for
t lie brotherhoods, likened the prin
ciples being laid down by the board
to thofe of the supreme court In its
early history.
He said that the utterances and
acts of railway executives indicated
that if not restrained they would
"render the transportation act emas
culated and abortive, this board
would be destroyed, insofar as its ef
ficient functioning is concerned, and
we shall have endless turmoil and in
stability in the railroad industry."
Looting Attempt Charged.
He declared that if the carriers did
not comply with the law the employes
would inform the public as to "the
real situation" in an attempt to pre
vent congress from enacting law for
financial relief of the railroads.
"The carriers are attempting to dip
their hands into the United States
treasury and extract J750, 000.000.
which is only their Initial effort," he
asserted.
Mr. Walsh reiterated the right of
the employes to organize and act as
a unit .and declared such action was
contemplated in the transportation
act.
Collective nancalning Vracd
Immediate application of the prin
oinle of collective bargaining to the
railroad labor situation was advo
cated by Jewell. He said that only
by such means could the present con
troversy be settled and a national cri
sis in transportation avoided.
Suggesting that the roads' "fight
on the present national agreements Is
merely a smoke screen." Mr. Jewell
proposed three steps for the board to
take, as follows:
First Refer the national agree
ments to a Joint conference of repre
sentatives of the railroads and the
b-otherhoods. the board agreeing to
pass immediately upon any differ
ences which may arise from such ne
gotiations. Second That the board confer wIC
the employers and employes on es
tablishment of boards of adjustment
as contemplated by the transportation
act.
Third That instead of filing a
flood of individual ccmplaints on
wages of unskilled employes, the
American Association of Railway Ex
ecutives, through W. W. Atterbury,
chairman of its committee on labor,
confer with committees of the em
ployes affected.
Itoada' Policy Attacked.
He stressed his argument that the
real issue before the board was
whether the fundamental principle of
collective bargaining was to stard
or fall, and asserted that all delay In
adjusting pending questions couli
have been avoided If the employers
had either met the union representa
tives in conference or joined with
them in establishing boards of ad
justment. He asserted that this pro
cedure was embodied in the trans
portation act, and accused the roads
of violating that law by their alleged
failure to adopt the methods he ad
vocated. Mr. Jewell said that in showing un
willingness to negotiate on a na
tional scale, the roads were "cen
tralizing their own bargaining power
and decentralizing that of the unions."
and that the employers were trying
to crusn tne local organizations, es
pecially those recently formed, and
thus weaken the unions.
Corrfivoodfire la Read.
The railroads could not accept the
benefits of the law without also
agreeing to labor's rights, he argued.
He said he saw in the railroads' ef
forts to thwart the employes an at
tempt to render unsettled, chaotic
conditions which would "finally lead
to the destruction of their'own house"
and repeated his request that railroad
managers and direcors be subpenaed
for cross-examination.
Correspondence with the railway
executives was read by Mr. Jewell
In an effort to show that conferences
had been proposed prior to the filing
of dispute over the rules. Mr. Whiter,
however, replied that when the rail
roads were returned to private con
trol he considered the national agree
ments terminated. He also maintained
that the intent of the transportation
act was to allow each carrier to ne
gotiate mith its employes. The hear
ing adjourned until Monday. Mean
while executives of the railroads will
gather here tomrfrrow.

KANSAS CITY, Mo.. Feb. 17. The

Farm Bureau Federation to devise
cheaper marketing methods, tonight
announced it had voted to recommend
formation of a non-stock, non-profit

die the marketing of grain after it
leaves the producer.
The organization would be co-operative,
with growers of grain taking
membership. They would then effect
an agreement with local co-operative
elevators or a local grain growers'
association to deliver the grain either
on the basis of a sales contract or a
pooling contract.
The local elevator or grain growers'
association then would contract with
the national sales agency to handle
the grain.
The plan calls for ownership of
terminal agencies, warehouse cor
porations, finance corporations, ex
port corporations and service depart
ments by the national sales agency.
The service department would fur
nish accurate information on condi
tions which affect the grain trade.
Transportation, legal, statistical and
other departments would be included.
It was planned to have membership
subscriptions furnish the initial cap
ital necessary and later the running
expenses would be covered by a mini
mum handling charge on grain.
Where local elevators and grain
growers' associations do not exist, the
sales agency would undertake to form
them.
The committee announced that it
hopes to have the new marketing sys
tem in operation In time to handle
much of the lOl'l crop.
A sub-committee of seven was ap
pointed to perfect organization plans
and call a meeting of all grain mar
keting organizations to consider the
plan. Another committee was named
to work out by-laws and examine
legal questions.
"By handling a large volume of
grain through their own sales agen
cies," the statement said, "the farm
ers hope to check and finally elimi
nate the speculation and unfair prac
tices by which the terminal grain
markets have been manipulated to
their disadvantage.
"It is not the desire of the commit
tee to form a grain trust.
"We believe that the public will be
greatly benefitted by more established
prices for grain and its products and
we know that farm Investments and
farmers' location will be made more
sound and secure thereby."

THE OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU,
Washington, D. C, Feb. 17. The
American Legion military committee,
headed by Wade H. Hays, and a mili
tary training camp association, popu
larly known as the Plattsburg asso
ciation, represented by Grenville
Clark, appealed to the senate com
mittee on military, affairs today to
make some amendments in the army
appropriation bill which would In
crease the number of students to at
tend civilian training camps at the
Presidio of San Francisco and Camp
Lewis, Washington. They also asked
the senate committee to increase the
appropriations for national guard en
campments, which it is proposed to
hold in each camp area this summer.
It was explained to the senate com
mittee by the representatives of the
American Legion and the Plattsburg
association that they had adopted a
definite programme which was in line
with the announced policy of President-elect
Harding. They declared
that the bill, as it came from the
house, not only reduces the strength
of the regular army below what the
president-elect desired, but does not
provide for the training of the na
tional guard and civilians, as Mr.
Harding is advocating.
Some Amendments ITrged.
In going over the bill In detail be
fore the senate committee, the dele
gates declared there should be in
each army corps area one division ot
regulars, two divisions of the na
tional guard and three divisions of
organized reserves. These, they as
serted, are not provided for in the
house bill, and certain amendments
which, it was argued, would not
greatly increase the appropriations
carried by the bill were suggested.
First, it was urged that the appro
priation for civilian training camps
should be increased from one to
three million dollars. These train
ing camps, the delegates declared.
were to be conducted on the plans
of the old Plattsburg camps, explain
ing that by the government paying
the expenses of the students, poor
boys would have an opportunity to at
tend. It was also urged that the
provision in the bill as passed by the
house limiting the time that reserve
officers could serve on the active list
with pay should be stricken from the
bill.
Officer School Planned.
There are now about 66,000 officers
commissioned in the reserve corps,
and It was stated that this provision
won Id conmletelv disorganize the or
ficers' reserve corps, as the course of
studv for reserve officers is aooui
three months.
An Increase In appropriations for
nctiva nav for reserve officers wad
asked for the further reason that re
serve officers can be used at the
training camps to assist the regular
officers as instructors. It was said
rtnrinir the hearings that a reserve
corps officer school will be held at
i-nn.n Lewis if sufficient funds are
provided by the senate committee.
THREE-FIFTHS OF XATIOX'
PRIMEVAL FORESTS GOXE.
United States Has Reached Turn
ing Point in Resources, Declares
Colonel W. B. Grcelj.
BOSTON", Feb. 17. With three
fifths of the primeval forests gone,
the United States must turn to the
growing and harvesting of timber
crop. Colonel W. B. Greely, chief of
the United States forest service, told
the Massachusetts house of repre
sentatives Wednesday. He said less
than 5 per cent of the virgin forests
of New England remained.
"The United States ha reached the
turning point in forest resources," he
continued. "Either we must quit
using wood or we must find a way
to grow wood upon our millions of
acres of idle land.
"A serious shortage of wood can
not be overcome in a couple of years.
Extend publicly owned forests and
encourage owners of timber land to
grow trees as. much as we can and
the supply of wood will still be hope
lessly inadequate when the pinch
comes.
"By some means we must see that
forest lands not needed for agricul
ture do not lie idle. Require the
forest owner, within the limits of
equity and common sense, to grow
trees, but give him fair and reason
able public, help.
"Let the national government de
termine and put before each state
the measures essential to keep Its
forest lands in continuous timber
crops. Let the government offer finan
cial aid to any state which will put
into effect and live up to these re
quirements. Obviously, the expendi
ture of national funds must be made
a safe investment in timber produc
tion. This calls for ail effective sys
tem of forest fire prevention. And
the federal requirements should also
include that the state shall control
the cutting of existing timber to the
extent necessary to get a new crop
started.
