"Oh, that Is different," said tins com
pany a .iiiander; "but don't forget that
you'ro soldiers and that you're going; to
France However, you can have the leave."
Then Ilecves mado u similar request, sup
ported by a similar story, and won a slip
of white paper that excused him for three
days.
Frcas and Martin drafted privates
Francis and Nllan to act as best men and
after hlrlne an automobile, started for

Kreas admitted that It was not only tough,
but a calamity.
Reeves declined to discuss his wedding,
but admitted that It was not so romantic
as the double ceremony In which his pals

Law, chancellor of the exchequer. In tho
House of Commons today. His statement
waa In answer to u bpeclflc query appar
ently Induced by several recent reports as
to German plans.
More or less circumstantial rumors afloat
during recent weeks have carried the story
, that the Germans weic boring a tunnel
Under the channel to attack England, !id
had been at tho work ever slnco they
reached tho Belgian seacoubt. Other ru
mors of projected Invasion of England by
German troops wero revived recently In

Kelsey. head of the history department of
Haverford College and a closo student of

Tho proposed Increases for lines east oi

Tho men Involved Include 32,000 pas

6J.000 yardmen.
"Wo havo thousands of men oirnlng only

of the Brotherhood of Railroad Firemen
and Englnemcn.
President Lee said "half a dotcn" sep
arate points, all relating to wage scales,
have been submitted to tho men and that
a reiult of the voto can be expected "by
the end of the month." Asked whether he
thought tho railroads could afford to pay
the added wages ho said:
"I don't know about that But can the
men go hungry?"
Ho Indicated that the railroad employes
expected Increased revenues, either In pas
senger or freight rales, to Tako caro of
any wage Increases.
"If the railroads can't afford to pay living
wages, let the Government set In motion Its
machinery. Let tho Interstate Commerco
Commission adjust rates. Oreat Britain
has solved the problem.
"Thousands of railway employes are
drawing from $63 to $75 a month. This
vote wan brought about by n desire to get
better pay for them. Every one knows
that the cost of living has Jumped 30 to 100
per cent and these poorly paid men are hit
hard "
President Lee said the voto will concern
the wages of all classes of men. but par
ticularly brakemen. firemen and baggage
men. .
The eight-hour law. he said, while i.hort
etilng tho day, did not In many Instances
grant better pay, because the railroads
have been able to adapt themselves to t'.c
shorter day. eliminating overtime
"This It tho big Issue." said Lee. "Tlio
railroad einplocs are at patriotic as any
