surf of Shasta daisies, the spendthrift
waste of year-long roses, and the

From certain surfaces there and in

back with radiographic brilliaifce
from acres on acres of the glass walls
and roofs of huge factories, strange
workshops where the enslaved sun
and the chained lightning wrote
stories in photographs. Millions of
miles of tiny pictures were taken at
a rate of a thousand a minute. Tons
of spooled romance went rolling all

Even when the sun had lett this

Creation of AH Koail of.

Washington, Sept. 10. The Inter
Kate Commerce commistion is pre

the important itsuc of consolidating
the railroad of the L'nitciJ State into

plate, the creation of 19 systems into

With the wisdom of such a con
summation emphasized by the indus
trial conflict which is still wugiug
member of the commission are anx
ious to renew the hearing and to
get along a rapidly as possible to a
point where a final plan and recom
mendations can he prepared.
Henry C. Hall, the commissioner
directly in charge of the consohda
tion problem, is now planning series
of hearings to be held in the far
west, to begin next month. The in
itial heariupt held by the commission
here dealt with the three consolidated
svstem proposed for the southeast
The majority of the main line that
would be affected by the proposals
Ur that region either entered violent
protests or suggested different con
solidations. ,
Opposition Strong.
A in the southeastern hearings, the
commission will encounter opposition
I to its plan rvrrywhere, it is expected,
hut this will not deter the determina
tion to work out a comprehensive
consolidation scheme,
The controversy resulting from the
order of the supreme court of the
I'nited State directing dissolution of
the Southern Pacific and Central Pa
cific properties will be injected into
the hearings to be held by the com
mission.
Advocates of continuation of the
merger of the Southern Pacific and
Central Pacific lines and proponents
of a dissolution of the properties and
a merger of the Ceirtral I'acific with
the Union Pacific have waged a bat
tle ever since the supreme court
handed down its decision.
.California Divided. .
The state of California i divided
into two camps, one urging dissolu
tion and the other fighting for con
tinuation of the present arrangement.
An interesting feature of the
situation is that the commission, in
its tentative plan, put the Central
Pacific with the Southern Pacific,
while Prof. Ripley, who prepared
the report from which the commis
sion made its tentative plan,
thought the Central Pacific should
be linked with the Union Pacific.
The California Producers and Ship
pers association has been active in
opposition to consolidation of the
Central Pacific with the Southern
Pacific and in urging that the deci
sion of the supreme court be car
ried out. This organization has
issued statements from which the
inference has been drawn that it be
lieves that the Interstate Commerce
commission will be bound by the
decision of the supreme court and
forced to divorce the Central Pa
cific from the Southern Pacific in
any consolidation plan devised for
the railroads in the far west.
Could Form New System.
Against that point of view is the
belief on the part of many that the
transportation act gives the.Inter
statt Commerce commission the
authority, in adopting a plan for
consolidations, to disregard the anti
trust statutes on which the supreme
court based its decision in the
Southern Pacific-Central Pacific
antitrust case. It is conceivable
that the commission could form a
system of roads in the west which
would include the Southern Pacific
and the Central Pacific.
The Union I'acific, through coun
sel, has issued statements designed
to show the advantage that would
accrue to the shipping public if the
Central Pacific were joined with the
Union Pacific.

Hotbed of Plague.
Smyrna, which lias been in a state
of chaos for three days, since the
Greek high commissioner took to a
warrhip in fear of hi life, is now
a hotbed of typhus and plague and
is crowded with thousands of refu
fjees without food.
The allied consuls and naval con
tingents, including the Americans,
had begun the restoration of order
as soon as thev arrived but the
Turks have taken charge of Smyrna
and their first efforts have been
directed toward stamninir out eni-
demics and relieving distress.
Smyrna, which has been the coal nf
the nationalists, as Angora was that
of the Greeks, soon will witness,
according to despatches from An

Nationalist government.
Venizelot May Return.
The seething ferment of Asia
Minor now seems to have trann-
ferred to Athens through the re
turned troops, despatches from the
Greek capital say, and there is much
talk of Constantine second descent
from the throne and the return of
Venizelos to power. The Greek
soldiers evecuatcd from Smyrna,
were ordered taken to islands in the
Aegean' sea, there to be disarmed
and demobilized, so as to avoid
possible trouble in Athens, but the
soldiers are reported to have threat
ened the ships officers and com
pelled them to steer for Pireaus, the
port of Athens, where they disem
barked and marched through the
streets, shouting insults to the ing
and demanding the return of
Venizelos.
A despatch to the Havas agency
from Athens, dated Sunday, says
that M. Kalokcropoulos has aband- j
oned the task of forming a new
Greek cabinet and that King
Constantine has requested former

League to Pursue
Hands Off Policy
in Asia Minor Row
Not Expected to Interfere Un
less for Protection of
Frontiers After Peace
Terms Are Fixed.
Geneva, Sept. 10. (By A. P.)
The league of nations, it is generally
conceded, will not interfere in Asia
Minor affairs unless for the protec
tion of frontiers after the govern
ments have fixed peace terms be
tween the Greeks and Turks.
The first phase of the third as
sembly of the league ended today
with the close of the general debate
on the council's work, without giv
ing any indication as to what the
assembly may do. The tone of the
speeches, including thore of the lead
ers, such as Lord Robert Cecil, the
carl of Balfour and M. Hanotaux.
tended to show that they were con
vinced that the league at the present
time, was unable to make much prog
ress in anv direction other than to
ward what is called "moral disarm
ament." Cannot Do Much.
This' will consist of the prepara
tion of the minds of the peoples
throughout the world for abandon
ment of force as a means of settle
ment in international dispute. Lord
Robert Cecil, one of the most active
of league enthusiasts who have con
tended that the league must go ahead
and act on all questions within the
sco of the covenant, say frank
ly that under present circumstance
the league cannot do mum cut con-

. Omaha lie l?uard Wire.
Chicago, Sept. 10. Battle lines
were being sharply drawn today and
tonight by the United States gov
ernment and the striking shopcrafts'
union fo rthe hearing Monday on
making permanent the Daugherty
injunction against the strikers, re
cently issued by Federal Judge Wil
kerson. The goyerumcnt is prepared with
three truck loads of evidence, to
show a gigantic conspiracy on the
part of the strikers to cripple the
railroads and paralyze the transpor
tation facilities of. the country. This
evidence, it is said, will include the
murder of 25 or more men.
It also includes scores of confes
sions of sabotage, bridge burning
and dynamiting, pulling of spikes
nnd removing fish plates from rails,
to cause wrecks, putting acid in
engine boilers and emery dust and
iilings in the bearings of locoinatives
and cars, tampering with food at
various shops and many other crimes
against which the temporary injunc
tion was aimed. The government de
sires to make the injunction perman
ent, but the unions will fight to have
it dismissed, or at least have its
teeth pulled in many respects.

Prosperity in U.S.
Must Come First
James M. Cox Says
Says Matter of Association to
Establish Peace Must Yield
to Question of Eco
nomic Order.
New York, Sept. 10. (By A. P.)
Re-establishment of prosperity in the
United States must be given first
place in the thoughts of Americans
and must be the preface to discussion
of the entrance of this country
into European affairs and into
the league of nations, declared
James M. Cox,-"' former gov
ernor of Ohio and democratic candi
date for the presidency at the last
election, on his return from Europe
on the Paris. Mr. Cox went abroad
to study old world political and eco
nomic conditions.
Discussing the issues in the con
gressional elections this fall, Mr.
Cox said that the international issue
would be "the failure of the admin
istration, both in the mora and un
selfish view on the one hand, and
the practical and selfish view- on the
other, to participate in the affairs of
the world."
"But," he added, "the matter of
governmental association to promote
peace must yield to the matter of
establishing economic order in this
country."
"Reparation." Mr. Co declared,
"is the one question in Kuroupe to
day and America hold the key to
the reparation tituation. If a de
cisioii is not reached, German will
collapse and with her will go Austria.
