Solemn Agreement Is Entered

OLD HATCHET IS BURIED
Interest Antagonistic to Each

BT HARDEV COLFAX.
i"opyrla:ht. lull, by The Oreironlan.)
WASHINGTON. D. C, Dec. 17.
(Special.) While the Interstate com
merce commission Is trying to find
out whether railroad rates should be
reduced or not and is conducting a
general Inqutry into the transporta
tion situation on Its own account, the
railroads and shippers, which have
fought each other for a generation,
have quietly and without publicity
rotten together and agreed to bury
the hatchet. Hereafter, instead of
untagonlzlng each other they will
work In harmony and as a team.
A solemn agreement to that effect
was entered into at a meeting here
on December 9 news of which was
withheld by both sides alike be
tween a special committee of the As
sociation of Railway Executives, rep
resenting the carriers ot the entire
country, and a selected delegation of
the biggest of America's big indus
tries. Itaral Committee Named.
Important In Its nove.ty, the meet
ing was still more Important from
another standpoint the farmer,
through his delegates sat down and
worked with the manufacturer, the
coal oporator, the lumberman and
other bis business Interests which he
had for many years considered his
oppressors.
As the upshot of the meeting a
transportation committee for agricul
ture and Industry was appointed. It
is a big committee and on Its roster
are tho names of representatives of
almost every Industry whose output
flows In any volume over American
rails today. In fact, it was too big
to be workable, so a legislative com
mittee of eevn-n was appointed from
Its roster, the funotion of tho legis
lative committee being to represent
the main body In dealings with the
roads and to work in harmony with
the carriers in seeking to bring about
"better economic conditions in the
field of transportation."
Executive Committee Listed.
The legislative committee consists
of:
J. R. Howard of Chicago, president
American Farm Bureau federation; S.
J. Lowell of Fredonia, N. Y.. master of
the national grange; J. A. Campbell of
Youngstown, O., president of the
Toungstown Sheet & Tube company;
Ernest T. Trigg of Philadelphia, pres
loent of the National Federation of
Construction Industries; Charles Hill
cf New York, Southern Tine Sales cor
poration; J. D. A. Morrow of Wash
ington, vice-president of the Noal
C'oa association; F. R. Todd of Mo
ll ne, 111., vice-president of Deere &
Co.
The? legislative committee appointed
as Its counsel James A. Emery of this
city, who Is also counsel for the Na
tional Association of Manufacturers.
In speaking of the conference Mr.
Emery said:
"The railroad representatives evi
dence their Intention to give the bene
fit of further reduction In operating
expenses to the shippers as fast as
operating costs, especially those prin
cipally represented In labor and ma
terial, are adjusted to the economic
level of wages and costs prevailing
generally In Industry. The shipping
public is to receive In reduced rates
benefits concurrent with cost adjust
ments. JuKtlrr to All Songkt.
"The committee Is endeavoring to
examine the whole question of trans
portation from the viewpoint of the
public interest to be served. It will
do so with the hope of settling eco
nomic differences of opinion between
shippers and carriers with justice) to
every element involved. It hopes to
reach sound economic conclusions not
only upon the rate question, but upon
pending Issues relating to the con
trol of our national system of trans
portation in order that the shipping
public may be the beneficiary of an
economic remedy for the transporta
tion situation without engagement of
any interested group in political com
petition to secure political benefit for
Itself, or resist necessary economic
adjustments essential to our common
economic recovery.
"To this end the committee has
been formed as a conference forum In
which differences of opinion may be
freely aired, and, it Is hoped, success
fully accommodated In the light of
the great public Interest involved.
The conferences so far held Inspired
the hope that divisions of activity
representing the life of our people can
exchange points of view and success
fully settle differing viewpoints under
the stimulating Impulse. of a great
necessity for ascertaining and recog
nizing the common Interest Involved."
Buyers Left I'ncertaln.
One of the main points Involved In
the shippers' decision to work with
the roads In obtaining lower rates
rather than against them is the real
ization that continued agitation for
lower rates leaves an attitude of un
certainty among buyers which is seri
ously hurting business. So long as
buyers may expect substantial rate
reductions at an early date they pur
chased only hand to mouth require
ments. The main volume of orders
Is held back In the hope that thr
benefit of the expected lower rati
may be obtained.
Especially Is this true in the cas-.
of bulky commodities. Coal is the
notable example. Buyers are not buy
ing in quantities the coal men have
expected and the failure to do so is
attributed largely to uncertainty ai
to rate reductions. So long as the
buying public feels that tt will not
have to pay as hlsh transportation
charges in the near future on It!"
coal as It is paying now orders will
be held down to hare requirements
for current necessities. At least, tha
Is the way the coal men figure.
Of significant Interest, therefore, is
the statement, Issued this week by
the coal Industry's representative on
lac committee. In that statement a
possibility of a rate reduction on coal
wcTore next sprii.g was declared re
mote. The b t a t e n, v ,. t w as issued
after the conference.

AMERICA IS TO GET
. L-7 TYPE ZEPPEU
Council of Ambassadors Ap
proves Contract.
NEGOTIATIONS ARE AT END
V. S. Application Based on De
struction or Aircraft Awarded
by Reparations Settlement.
PARIS, Dec' 17. (By the Associat
Press.) The council of ambassadors
has granted permission to the United
States to contract for the construc
tion at Frledrlcnshaven. Germany, of
a Zeppelin of the L-7 type. This de
cision marks the end of diplomatic
negotiations which have proceeded
between- the allied powers and the
United States since last July.
The application for the construc
tion of a Zeppelin grew out of the
destruction In Germany of five big
dirigibles, one of which had been al
lotted to the United States during the
peace conference. The United States
based its application on the grounds
that it was entitled to another air
ship under Germany's reparations
agreement. The council of ambassa
dors referred the matter to the prin
cipal allied powers aid several notes
were said to have been exchanged.
It was said that construction of the
new Zeppelin may be started In Jan
uary. AMERICAN DIPLOMACY WINS
OpKsition by European Govern
ments Finally Overcome.
WASHINGTON. D. C, Dec. 17. (By
the Associated Press.) Authorization
by the allied council of ambassadors
for the construction by Germany of
a Zeppelin of the L-70 type for the
United States was regarded today In
official circles here as a triumph for
American diplomacy.
By virtue of that authorization
Germany is permitted to go behind
the protocol which limited the size of
airships she might build to 30,000
cubic meters capacity. The airship
that Germany will build for the
United States will be of 75,000 cubic
meters and there had developed
among the .allied governments opposi
tion to establishing a precedent by
allowing Germany to go behind any
treaty or engagement.
Opposition of the European gov
ernments was overcome by repeated,
representations by Ambassador Her
rlck that this country would not use
the new airship for military purposes
and that America was entitled to
compensation In kind for the Zeppelin
awarded this government and later
destroyed by Germany. ,
Under the decision of the council
of ambassadors. Germany will con
struct a Zeppelin of the L-70 type
at the Friederlchshafen hangar, the
only one in Germany large enough,
and then will tear down the hangar
and disperse the mechanics.
The completed airship will be de
livered to the United States in Ger
many and without the expenditure of
a penny by this government, it was
stated, and then will be flown across
the Atlantic by a navy department
crew. Construction will be under
the direction of a staff of American
navy experts.
For nine months to a year is esti
mated by American experta as re
quired for the construction.
Since the completion of the two
commercial Zeppelins the Bodenzal
and the Nordstern, rigid airship con
struction has ceased in Germaty.
Sousa and His Band Score
Triumph in Concerts.
Rousing Marches and Delightful
Classics Gives by Artists.
. BY JOSEPH MACQUEEN.
Sousa and his band and his stirring
marches are household words every
where in America, and the pulsing
throb that marks a Sousa concert is
experienced at no other musical
event. This city has plenty of Sousa
admirers, and Sousa and his men re
ceived glad welcomes In two con
certs yesterday, afternoon and eve
ning, in the public auditorium. The
famous band Is better than ever, and
this trip numbers about 80 musicians.
The principal elements of gladness
worthy of deep musical admiration in
the concerts are such rousing marches
as "Keeping Step With the Union,"
"The Stars and Stripes Forever" and
"U. S. Field Artillery"; and John
Philip Sousa, conductor, in action,
baton in right hand, directing his
musicians. In conducting, Sousa does
lr so quietly, so modestly, that one
wonders how he gets such magnific
ent ensemble, surprising effects
quickly and in perfect unanimity.
The secret of it all must be that
Sousa has drilled his band into a
quickly responsive, intelligent piece
of fine mechanism. Then again, no
band selection played yesterday went
'over the heads'" of audiences. Yet
his programmes included one rhap
sody, one overture, one Intricate hymn
from Italian opera and other num
bers. At the matinee the programme
started off in dignified fashion with
the fine rendition of the Liszt "Four
teenth Rhapsody," and its classical
beauties were skillfully brought out
by a band that is well balanced In
every unit, both In the departments
of wood, wind and brass. The tone
color Is rich and soft, without jar
ring notes. Verily, the man or men
who selected the musicians compris
ing the Sousa band of 1921-22 showed
good artistic judgment. From Liszt
the recall brought the crash and roll
of "El Capitan," and a roar of ap
plause was the result. "Hymn to the
Sun." from the Mascagnl opera
"Iris." was played with a glorious,
well-worked-up finale.
The chief bit of fun and also mu
sical education at the matinee came
with the mixture, "Showing Off Be
fore Company." When the bit was
begun there were only four band
members visible on the platform of
the oboe persuasion. Then In succes
sion there walked in, at short Inter
vals, piccolo, flute, clarinet, saxo
phone, baritone, French horn bas
soon, tuba, cornet, trombone and
other bandsmen. Each group played
a selection and then walked to seats,
followed' by other groups In swift
succession. The bassoon story was
most comical.
As each selection was given. In reg
ular order, and In reply to recalls,
the hand played such extra numbers
as "On the Campus," "Comrades of
the Legion" and other similar
marches. When "Stars and Stripes
Forever" was reached, It was high
water mark so far as popular ap
proval is concerned. The row of
cornets, piccolos and trombones "out
front" won out emphatically.
The soloists are all excellent. Miss
Florence Hardeman, violinist, has
fine tone and much technique, and
pleased with her playing of "Polo
naise" (Wlenlawskl), and "Souvenir"
(Drdla). Miss Mary Baker, soprano,
has a clear, well trained, sweet voice
and it waB heard to advantage in
"Oarmena" (Wilson), and "Carry Me
Back to Ole Vlrginny," but that latter
lovely melody was sung and played
just a trifle too. slowly. Miss Bam
brlck la a talented harpist.. John
Dolan is a star cornet soloist, and
plays with delightful tone and ex
pression. He Is one of the best cor
net artists heard here.
Last night's programme was equally
attractive.
There will be two concerts today.
a matinee at 2:30 P. M., and an eve
ning performance at 8:30 o'clock. The
latter concert closes the engagement
for Sousa this trip.
EGG CASE IS APPEALED
Reputed Pure Food Law Violator
Will Contest Conviction.
J. W. Savlnar. of the Savlnar com
pany, who was fined J93 by Judge
Dlech In the district court, on a
charge of failing to comply with the
pure food laws by not marking cold
storage eggs as such, has appealed
his case.
Mr. Savlnar holds that the agents
of the office of State Food and Dairy
Commissioner Hawley made an- ex
amination of almost 10,000 cases of
cold storage eggs in his plant before
they found one that was unmarked.
This was unmarked because of an
oversight on the part of a shipping
.clerk, according to Savlnar.
Mr. Savlnar declares that If the
state would employ practical egg
men to make their Investigations
there would be less trouble solving
the bad egg problem.

The state industrial accident commis
sion, in an order issued here today,
awarded to Mrs. Martha J. Neal o(

amount of $4472, to be paid in in

vey Neal, while employed as a police

tured bloodvessel. Physicians who

ably was the result of being struck

husband was 66 years old at the
time of his death.
