FRIDAY, , SEPTE:.I2ER 8, 4192 TIID OREGON DAILY t JOVENAI PORTLAND; OREGON. 80.000 MILES OF ROAD INVOLVEO IN PARTIAL SOLUTION . Or Darld Iawrenee fCopjrrisht. 1822. for Tb. Journal) Washington, Sept. 8. Eighty thou sand miles of railroad out of a, total of approximately 230.000 miles are in volved in the partial settlement of the shopmen's strike, negotiation of which will be completed in the next three days. Details of the peace overtures have reached 'government officials In formally. Some of the essential points in this peace movement are these: First, most of the Southern roads with two or threaexceptions, notably the Norfolk & Western, but including the Chesapeake A Ohio and the South ern railway, are represented in the group -of executives which is ready to make a settlement with the strikers. Second, of the Northern railroads, the New York Central is considering . the proposal though denials are be ing made that a decision has -been reached. SEPARATE PEACE WAS Third, the basis of settlement is al- most exactly that which was sug gested by Daniel WlUard, president of the Baltimore & Ohio and other exec utives after the Brotherhood chiefs failed to mediate in New .-"Vfr li lt will bea recalled thaf separate pt-ace efforts were made at that time but were rejected by . B. M. Jewell leader of the shopmen. Fourth,, all the railroads who agree to the plan will take back the strikers before October 1 under the first and second clauses of President Harding's first proposal, namely, that the rall ; road labor board's decision on wages b accepted and lawsuits on both sides be withdraws. Am .for : seniority, an effort -will be made by the roads to give the strikers their Jobs back, wher ever vacancies still exist and if there are no vacancies in those particular Jobs, then the question of equal pay will be given the strikers. The seniority question will be left to a board of adjustment in each case of three men on each side and if there la a deadlock the railroad labor beard will be asked to assume Jurisdiction and decide the aisputea poinis. PRIME MOVERS 5ASEO The prime movers In these informal negotiations are Daniel Willard of the Baltimore Ohio and B. M. Jewell. who have arranged the whole business so that the meetings In Chicago in the next three days will really determine how many roads are ready to accept the statement. The situation is somewhat analagous to that- which brought an end to the soft coal strike when John Lewis suc ceeded in persuading enough coal op erators to sign the peace agreement at Cleveland. In that case, however, the coal operators were more or less com pelled by competitive conditions to fall in line after a powerful group of coal operators had signed the agreement. The railroads who do not wish to ac cept the Jewell-Wlllard plan, how ever, are In a difficult position. Roads like the Pennsylvania, for instance, feel that they can get along without taking the strikers back .and that they can hold out for a much more definite surrender on the part of their former employes so that the lesson will be firmly implanted on the minds of all those who shall dare to strike in mighty Pennsylvania again. E5D BELIEVED XEAE In other words, the railroads who feel the pinch are settling the strike. This means that on the whole trans portation will be -materially improved and the coal carrying roads are ex pected to fall in line one after the other "in ratifying the agreement made in Chicago. Official Washington believes the Chi cago negotiations mean the beginning of the end of the strike andfthe word passed around her from both labor and railroad sources 'would ' seem to Indicate as ranch, though . the "irrecon ciliable" or "die hard", element in the railroad group are not showing any signs of a change of position, - What they will do after the Chicago peace treaty is signed is another question, but it is probable that the 89,000 mites win-' be gradually' increased so that very few systems will remain out of the strike settlement. Hope for Rescuing Entombed Miners Is Faintj Work Rushed Jackson. Cal., Sept, 8. (I. X. S.) Hopes for rescuing alive the 47 miners trapped by fire ' in- the lower reaches of the Argonaut gold mine were all but abandoned today and an official of the Argonaut Mining company ex pressed the belief that the men have perished, bt this did not tend to stop the work of the rescuers. At the present rate of progress, ex perts estimated it would take at least three more days' .to reach the end of the shaft and drill through the 75-foot wall of quarts separating the two mines. The miners now have been in carcerated 12 days. La FoUette's Lead Now Totals 202,644 Milwaukee, Wis.. Sept. 8. (U. P.) With returns from 2374 precincts out of 2531 in the state. Senator Robert M.

PHON E USERS TO GET INSTRUCTION An extensive educational program to' familiarize Portland J telephone users with the new methods of tele phone operation which will be em ployed following inauguration of the six-digit system late this fall, is be- 4ng prepared by the Pacific Telephone & Telegraph company. Through extensive testing jof all new equipment and through special train ing of all employes the telephone company will have the new system working upon a basis as near perfect as possible within the office so that smooth operation will depend almost wholly upon subscribers. i Along with the change fin system there will be 13,000 numbej' changes and this alone presents a problem which the company hopes tq overcome by the educational program. As a result of the change two new exchange offices. Garfield and Beacoln. will be established and the Arleta office will be given the name Sunset. Individual contact will be made with the subscribers so that the (new oper ating system may be explained. For this purpose the company is planning some special assignments ! such as sending a Chinese interpreter to in struct Chinese telephone users. All employes of the company ( are being given special training so thy will be able to understand the new svstem and be prepared to explain its features to subscribers. j Installation of one of- thi new ma chine-switching telephones- . will be made in the business office tof the tel ephone company so that vijsiting sub scribers may be given instructions in use of the new instrument. Pamphlets, advertising and listing of instructions in the next directory will be addi tional steps in the educational work.
