Information from a British source, . who under the circum stances would carry the presump tion of greater relative objectiv ity, was to the effect that the German offensives had been re duced in speed as contrasted to operations in the first two or three days.

F. O. Gurley, chairman ef the carriers' conference committee, called the offer a plan of emerx ency compensation when he sub mitted it to President Roosevelt's fact finding board- Monday. George M. Harrison, president of the railway clerks union, com mented: "The bonus plan proposed is deceptive in its operation and unsound as. a means of adjusting wage rates. It Ignores all other relevant factors in wage fixing and perpetuate inequalities of treat - ment ccnpared with.other wage earners who now enejoy wage in creases." The initial effect of the rail roads' proposal would be an esti mated six per cent increase on earnings up to $30 a week or $65 on semi-monthly payrolls, effec tive November 1, and amounting to $95,004,000 If it remained in effect for a year.
