PRESIDENT TO
URGE SEIZURE
OF RAILROADS
Rejects Proposal of Execu
tives For Control Under
Board's Plan
IS PREPARING MESSAGE
May Reach Congress Later in
Week; Senator New
land's Decision
Washington, E>. C., Dec. 11.
I President Wilson last night rejected
| the proposal of the railroad execu
' tives to retain control of the rail
i roads under the Interstate Com
merce Commission's unification
I scheme. As a consequence he will
Igo before Congress within a few
days, perhaps before the end of the
I week, with a message urging the
pooling of the nation's transporta
| tion facilities under government
j operation.
The railroads' vieV, as drafted by
j Fairfax Hatrison. chairman of the
' Kailroads' War Board, was submit
i ted to President Wilson late yester
i day afternoon by Senator Newlands,
1 chairman of the Joint Congressional
I Committee on Railroads'. After his
; conference at the White House Sena
i tor Newlands announced the Presi
j dent's intention of laying the situs -
! tion before Congress. Here are the
i outstanding features of Mr. Har-
I rison's recommendations—
ltallroad Recommendations
1. The immediate appointment ol
I a traffic officer to represent all im
! portant government departments to
secure efficient government co-
I operation.
2. Priority orders to enable the
i railroads to secure prompt delivery
I of equipment under contract.
I 3. The aid of the Treasury De
partment in procuring, on their own
individual credit, the capital neces
sary for the enlargement of equip
ment and facilities.
4. Immediate increases in rates to
meet increased operating expenses
j and strengthen credit.
5. Drafting of railroad men for
! assignment to railroad work until
j actually needed for military service
Mr. Harrison made its clear that
: the railroads are not seeking a bil
lion dollars from the government or
| any one else at the present time. He
| also declared that the railroads do
not desiro the repeal of anti-trust
I or anti-pooling laws at this time,
j Senator Newlands declined to
I make public the details of the attl
| tude assumed by the President dur
ing their interview. He was in con
! ference at the White House for
I about a half hour, after which time
1 he went to his office at the Capitol
| and issued a statement on the situa-'
I tion.
Senator Newlands has been busy
since his arrival in AVashington in
j securing for presentation to the
Senate Committee on Interstate
j Commerce all available information
regarding the railroad situation and
the recent recommendations made by
I the Interstate Commerce Commis
! sion regarding the unification of
■ railroad operation with a view to
i meeting war conditions.
The President's advisers are di-
J vided in their views. Most of them
i however, have come out for govern-
I ment operation.
The railroads' opposition to gov-
I ernment operation is well under
stood. But some surprise was ex
! pressed to-day at their objection to
suspension of provisions against
pooling traffic and profits.
Those within the government who
j believe the railroads themselves can
| handle the situation if given free
rein do not oppose legislation to
J T.ake a full pooling compulsory.

By .Associated Press
London, Dec. 11. —The situation in
j Moscow is reported to be grave ac-l
! cording to a Times dispatch fronij
| Petrograd. The Bolshevik), accord-1
ing to Petrograd newspapers, have |
| placed machine guns in the streets ns|
j they fear an uprising of hostile part- i
i ies. The garrison, however, shows;
signs of insubordination and is re-1
! ported to be disobeying the Bolshe- I
j viki commander, a private soldier!
\ named Muranoff.
Considerable forces, the dispat./h
j adds, are being detached from the
west l'font to be sent against the
Cossacks
The Cossacks are preparing to
fight, the Petrograd correspondent
of the Daily Mail reports. Three
trainloads of Cossacks are said to be
at Bielgorod and three at Sumy, |
commanded by General Kornilotf. i
Extremist red guards to the number |
of about 1.000 are expected at
Kharkov from Moscow.
London. Dec. 11.—Street fighting
has occurred in Moscow and the
Swedish consul there has advised all
Swedes to leave the 4ty, according
to advices received iii Haparanda

It is added the starvation seems to
threaten Moscow. Most of the Swedes

British Leader States
Allied Position on Form
of Russian Government
By Associated Press
Petrograd, Monday, Dec. 10. —In.
reply to a question what forms of {
government in Russia the allies!
would consider as recognized and
supported by the people, the British |
ambassador, Sir George Buchanan!
said in an interview to-day thatj
Great Britain's position was that:
such a government most naturally!
would come from the constituent as-,
sembly, although it might come from
some other source. i
The ambassador explained Great!
Britain considered it necessary first j
to discuss peace terms amc#.g the'
allies before taking them up with;
the enemy and on that account could!
not participate in the armistice ne-!
gotiations. He added that he had
taken no action toward recognition
cf the peoples commissaries.
Sir George declared ftiat without!
the British tlcet and volunteer arm- ;
ies Russia to-day would be Get - j
niany's vassal, that autocracy would j
be supreme in Europe and that there j
would have been no revolution ini
Russia, no liberty for the people. j
He asked if the British svere notj
entitled to be treated as friends in-i
stead of as the objects of scurrilous
attacks. He declared the Bolshe-j
viki premier, Nikolai Lenine, had'
placed the British on a level lower!
than the Turks, to whom he would '
, hand over Armenia. The position of
| Englishmen at. Russia at the pres-j
j ent moment was unenviable, he add- j
I ed. They were attacked or regard-j
ed with suspicion. There was no,
foundation for suspicion, unless it]
was a crime to defend one's country |
against the calumnies of German;
agents.
The ambassador said he ventured!
to address a word of warning to the!
Russian democracy. He knew the!
i Russian leaders were animated byj
! the sincere desire to create a broth
| erhood. Nevertheless speeches de
j livered against Great Britain and at-!
j tempts to provoke a revolution in the:
British Isles were merely stealing!
I the resolve of the British to fight i
j the war to the end, rallying the peo
I pie around the government.
Rebels Disappointed
With German Offer
By .l.ixociateil I'ress
I-ondon, Monday, Doc. 10.—The
f Pe.trograd correspondent of the!
Times attributes to a responsible!
source the statement that during
the informal conversations between
j the Russian and German representa-
I tives at Brest-Litovsk regarding the!
i armistice on the eastern front the!
Germans indicated that the follow
ing points were likely to be includ-l
ed in any of their peace negotia
j tions:
; "Germany to have control of the:
| Russian wheat market for fifteen
I years.
"All German goods to be admit-;
! ted to Russia duty free.
"No territory now occupied by tlie'
j Germans to be surrendered."
The correspondent says the 80l- \
' sheviki were disappointed by the,
j reserved attitude of the German ne
' gotiators and Iheir lack of sympathy'
; with political idealism. Other causes
contributed their depression but
| it is stated they ore determined to i
conclude an armistice at any cost
| if the latest appeal by the Russian
; commissioners to the allies falls.

"Watchwomen" are supplanting
crossing watchmen on* the Middle di

ine employes making their appear
ance about two weeks ago at Pem
berton, east of Tyrone.
A prominent local official said last
night that this is the only point on
the division where girls or women
have been introduced as crossing
guardians, but was unable to tell
whether others would follow In their
wake soon. It is likely that more
watchwomen will appear when their
employment passes the experimental
stage^
Need Men Elsewhere
Because ot' the imperative de
mands on the big ruilroad systems,
men are being taken from jobs tfiat

Plans are said to be under consid
eration for placing women at three
crossings in Tyrone soon. Watchwo
men have passed from the experi

the t'net that they will shortly be no

out yesterday. The first two were
brought to the Reading shops on
Sunday evening where they will be
altered to conform to the necessity of
the company. They are what is
known as consolidated engines and
similar to those on the Reading. The.
cabs are open and the locomotives
painted gray, the war color. The let

sent from the llarrislnirg district
yesterday. This is the number of
men that was sent from the city to
their training camps after passing
their physical examinations here.
Recruiting authorities stated that
there were about two hundred more
men who passed their examinations
yesterday, but will not leave the city
at once. Every train brings men to
the recruiting office, and every train
takes men to their training camps.
Besides the figures quoted above,
many other men were sent to the
city for examinations and failed to
pass.
So great has been the influx of vol
unteers into the local office that it
has been necessary to close two of
the offices to the men. in order that
the work of tabulating the business
of the office can be done.

of war, however, all such authority

HEROIC ALPINI
HOLD HEIGHTS
AGAINST HUNS
Only After Division Was Cut
to Pieces Was Retire
ment Made
By Associated Press
Italian Headquarters in Northern
! Italy, Monday. Dec. 10 (by The Asso
ciated Press!.—A visit to-day to the
headquarters of a major general com
manding a division of heroic Aipini
and Bersaglieri dislodged the story
of the manner in which this division
held the heights back of the Asiago
Plateau until it was cut to pieces and
thf• remnant was compelled to fall
back to its present new line. The
general is now engaged In reform
ing his shattered forces, which were
'seen in long lines along the road
J.l eparing to g> back into The fight
A major of the general's staff, who
toward the close of the fight collect
to the remaining men of the division
I ard led them in the final charges
until the order for retirement came,
gave a first-hand description of the
struggle. He r.aid there were three
Bersaglieri regiments, some Aipini
battalions and one quota of batteries
of field and middle calibre guns.
These were ranged back of Asiago
when the enemy's drive reached its
maximum intensity last Wednesday.
For twenty-four hours one Hersag
lierl regiment had held Monte Ton
darecar until its platoons had been
reduced from thirty men to six. It
was then that the battalions of Ai
pini were sent to their relief.
The Aipini fought their way up
j the hill, gaining the summit against
heavy odds, only to find their com
rades cut to pieces. Most of them
were lying dead from stabwounds.
Now the Aipini battalions found
themselves in the renter of a concen
tration of enemy forces which gradu
ally encircles them. Some of the
| battalions maneuvered and were car
ried back and forth in the fury of
i the fighting along the slopes. Others
j remained on the summit with the
enemy surrounding them.
At 9 o'clock on Wednesday morn
ing tiie colonel of these battalions
sent his last report to the general.
It said laconically: "The enemy is on
all sides and I am about to charge."
That was the last which was ever
heard of him or of any of his men.
The enveloping enemy masses grew
denser, and the gallant Alipini band
which had gone to rescue the Ber
saglieri was wiped out of existence.
The fighting continued along other
points of the line until the forces
were decimated and it became clear
that the enemy greatly outnumbered
the Italians. The general himself
who was directing operations from
a point just back of the line, nar
rowly escaped a shrapnel shell which
burst near his automobile. It was
then that the major, who recounted
these events, gathered the remnant
of the division and fought out the
remainder of the day until the new
Italian lines of defense were formed
across the Franzella and Gadena
passes leading to the Brenta valley
and the plain. It is here the lines
are now resting, with good prospects
of holding.
The correspondent visited a num
ber of points on the present line and
talked with officers and men. All
were confident of being able to hold
when the new attack, which they ex
| pect in a few days, is made.
