W'ASHINGTON. Aug. "Ti—Visible
activities here in the rail strike” sit-
uation were confined today to a con-
tinuation of the mediator efiorts of
the chairman of the “Big Four"
ls'rotherhoods in whose hands the
striking shopcral‘t's have placed their
case. '
These chairmen who late yes'terdh’y
spent more than two hours in «inter-
once with President Harding, in which
it was declared a “whole basketful of
propositions was discussed." this
morning again went into coni‘exm
with representatives of the striking
unions. ‘
The only hint as to what might be
expected came from Lee Sheppard.
president of the Conductors‘ Brother-
hood and spokesman for the enfire
group of union chiefs, who said that
one of the matters to be considered
today would be whether the labor men
would ask for a further conference
with all the executives to meet acom—
mittee. There was no intimation of
what proposals would be made if a
meeting is arranged. ,
Another matter in which a decision
might come today also. according to

Harding, which previously had been

moving tale of the turf, replete with
adventure and romance and as full of
action as the big racing scene with
which it ends. It will be shown for
the last time today. ,
An aeroplane also plays an im«
portnnt part in the story, carrying
llobbie swiftly to the "side of her
wounded brother in a. hospital from
where she makes her nervy dnsh by
motor to the race track just in time
for the big event.
The racing scene, .08 course, has the
big punch. It is done with remark-
able, fidelity to detail. The. flying
horses. the clouds of dust intht-ir
wake, the straining jockeys on their
backs, the throngs cheering wildly in
the towering stands, all combine in
making a rip—roaring conclusion to
this most engrossing subject.

CHICAGO, Aug. ISA—(Associated

changed the nation's grave railroad
situation today..
Efforts to settle the shopmen's

little encouragement in the rail crisis.
\Although little progress was made

trainmen was called off. and four east-

WASHINGTON. -Aug. 15.—(Asso.
elated Press).—'—President Harding,
having abandoned all clitoris at medi-
ation of the rail strike. was declared-
today by his advisers to have virtually
decided to inform~ the railroad execu-
tives of the country that in the oper-
ation of trains they will be given the
full, protection and aid of the govern-
ment. , ‘ .
The president, it was stated, de-
termined that the only course the
government now could pursue was
the path followed in the coal strike—
extension of an invitation to the em-
ployers to operate their property and
the federal government. with the co-
,operation of the states. would stand
'behind them so far 'as they are direct-
ed to the serving of the public. l
Consideration is being given by the
lpresident. it was asserted, to the
.proposition of going before Congress
iwlthin the next few days, with a com-
prehensive statement. of the whole
rail strike situation, including the re~
buffs that have met the government‘s
attempts at settlement. ’\

LAS VEGAS. Nev. Aug. 15 (Asso-
ciated Press).~Las Vegas was at a
high tension today. For two days the
town has been without trains, malls
or fresh foodstufis. the supply of the
latter having been low before the rail-
road tieup started. State police. arm!
ed with machine guns, were expected
momentarily, but officers here said
they feared an outbreak before rein-
forcements arrived.
Approximately. 150 persons, railroad
shop employee, guards and their wives
and children were virtual prisoners
in a railroad Stockade here. earlyTo-l
day. and Union Pacific strikers were'
maintaining pickets outside.
Governor Boyle, who has beenhere
several days. addressed the strikers
late yesterday, delivering a warning
against a “psychic jag." He told them
a clash betn'een strikers and non-‘
union employee. or strikers and offi-
cers might, “lead to something that
would prove uncontrollable."
Governor Boyle declared the isola—.;

one fraught with untold danger. He
pointed out that this city is more

Ancient Arcadia.
In ancient Greece, the province of -
Arcadia: was the central and most
mountainous portion of the Pelopon-
nesus, or southernmost end or the
Ghee-tan peninsula, peopled by peas:
ants of a peaceful and. distinctly lov-
able disposition. So famous did this
province become for the simplicity and
innocence of Ice inhabitants, that its
name became a symbol. of happiness
and rural-simplicity, later to be adopt-
ed by poets-among them Sir Philly
Sidney—as the foundation for to-
mances, in which this.type or life
played a leading part. .
