It Is feared, will cause other roads to adopt a firmer stand agrlnst bargaining with the labor organizations. The Pennsylvania made clear its attitude when representatives of the shop crafts on the Pennsylvania charged bifore the United STateg railway labor board that rules of the board were being vioiat-d by that road. E. T. Whiter, counsel for the Pennsylvania, replied by criticising, openly, several rulings of the bqaru .and by declaring, “We will conduct our negotiations In our own wav.”

Engineers Send A nother Letter to Tax League Again Ask for Information Regarding Determination of Body’s Policies. The Indianapolis Chapter of tie •—American Association of Engineers has again asked the Taxpayers' League of Indiana,’for information regarding the determination of its poll eies. In letter sent by Daniel ft. Luten, secretary. of the association, to Alfred F. Potts, secretary of the league, the latter's attention is called to the fact that in replying to a series of questions recently propounded by the engineers he faited to answer the one considered most vital—that is, relative to the manner— in which the league's policies are fixed. Light on this subject is awaited with interest by the engineers as well as the public in general, since ten memtiers of the league have taken it upon themselves to block the erection of four budly needed schqols in Indianapolis by remonstrating against a bond issue ordered by the board of school t-ommissloners. LETTER TO SECRETARY OF TAX LEAGUE. Mr. Luten's letter to Mr. Potts is as follows. "The Indianapolis Chapter of the American Association of Engineers at its regular weekly meeting yesterday, gave consideration to your gnawer. net dated, to nur letter of June 23, in which we asked for Information about the Taxpayers' League, its origin aud purpose, ttr officers and member*, and how its policies were determined. Copies were given to the press because you had falftd to answer an earlier inquiry. “The chapter thanks you for your courteous answer to our questions n, b and c, but is not satisfied with your failure to answer question and, which requested ‘definite data as to the method used to determine the policies of the league ou any question.' Does your board of directors actually pass on each project that you oppose? If you will supply tills omission it wll be appreciated. "You say that your purpose is to ‘check the extravagant expenditure of public money.’ This seems to us am biguoust You apparently Interpret it to meaa that construction should nrtt proceed because prices of material* arc high. But in an industry admittedly short of production, can you ever catch up unless you do offer the encouragement of high prices? To stop construction In order that prices raiiv be reduced merely causes greater shortage and correspondingly higher prices when construction is resumed. "We believe the-, (instruction Indus try Is the barometer of business. The hope of reviving business depends largely upon increasing the activity in the building Industry. And we urge that those who have profited by stability of government ‘p lay aside considerable wealth af raid now be liberal In providing fund's for employ ment for those who now hnve nothing. often through no fault of their own. OFFER OF COOPERATION MADE BY ENGINEERS. "We see no reason why the aims and ppvpi.ses of the Taxpayers' League should not harmonize with our own, when applied to the eon structlon industry. We would gladly , cooperate with you If that is agreeable, in remedying nhuses in eugi necring such as complained of In the school board contracts, 'n eliminating combinations to raise p-iees. and In securing efficient expenditure. But we believe that the evils should be attacked and not the industry • “We have talked with members of the Taxpayers’ League who say they Joined the league by signing an application and without payment of dues, and that they have liad no pari tn Its deliberations If the only r<4# quire ment for membership Is to pay taxes and sign the application.'tueoc are many among us who would tip # predate an invitation to Join and who would take a most active Interest in your activities."

THINKS DE VALERA’S TERMS ACCEPTABLE. ‘'The feeling on our side is overwhelmingly in favor of a settlement. It Is now entirely a question between Lloyd George and De Valera.” Lord Midleton expressed the belief that De Valera's terms will be acceptable to the British premier. Meanwhile the British government was husily preparing for an official visit to the capital of Eamonn De Valera, “president of ihe Republic of-rireland.” The morning press made a certainty what last evening’s newspapers had only dared hopefully to predict, namely, that the stage is set for an armistice between Britain and Sinn Fein, to go into effect at noon Monday, and to be a general Irish peace conference here in London. * In official circles it was not .doubted that De Valera will be here for a days. It Avas made plain that he will have all jVissible facilities and will be permitted to bring whomsoever he desires. No conditions of any sort are to be imposed upon the Sinn Fein leader in connection with his visit. SAYS FEW SIGNERS ACTUALLY OPPOSE Legion Executive Boosts Plaza Before Optimist Club.
