Atrial Jo Tin Bun and Nbw Yoik Heuld. Washington, July 19. Heavy losses to farmers nnd hleh prices of flour and bread aro resulting from the railroad tangle, which Is hampering grain move- ments, J. XL Howard, president of the American Farm llureau Federation, said hero Railway labors who have cut down their volume of work and repeatedly struck for higher wages will nnd them; Mlves hit hard by the situation they have helped to create, Mr. Howard said, predicting that the advances In prices they have caused will offset the wage In- creases they receive. Tho first result of the railroad tie-u- Mr. Howard said, has been an Inade- quate \movement of the new crop, while na high as 25 rer cent, of last year-- crop still remains In local elevators In Bomo sections. Not knowliuc whether they will be able to deliver grain when rold, and facing high demurrage charges, storage rates and Interest charges, buy-er- a of grain are offering farmers prices much lower than those quoted at ter- minal elevators. This tends to Increase the margin between producers nnd Mr. Howard pointed out Figuring the Increased margin on each bushel of wheat at ten cents, Mr. Howard iihowed that the loss on the millions of bushels consumed annually would be a staggering sum. Charging up to labor the-bla- for the grain situation, Mr. Howard said: \Thero la no more damnable point at which labor can attack our economic stntctufb and, I might add. no surer way of cutting Its own throat than by cutting down the efficiency nnd the carrylnc ca- pacity of s of transportation.\ N.

The New York Central Railroad con- templates no reduction In Its working forces, It waa stated yesterday by off- icials of the system. Both freight and passenger services have been taxed to the utmost by increasing demands. It was explained, and the officials were surprised at the reports from Baltimore that there have been reductions there. They said the company Is In the market for labor The freight tonnage carrlfd over the company's lines In tho last live months was 122 per cent, greater than re- corded during the same period last year, and the passenger congestion Is such as was never bfore experienced. Many of the best trains are being run in sec- tions, it was explained, tho passenger In- crease having been figured at 20 per cfnt.

Aftor look- ing It over he found It handy to declare that ho does not Intend to engage In a telegraphlo debate with the Republican nominee. The questions, which Involve among other things the matter of the Arme- nian mandate, the disposition1 of Thrace and tho American policy In the Adriatic, Gov. Cox prefers to discuss at aomo later date. When this will bo he did not say, even though pressed for word on the subject at two conferences with the newspaper correspondents, but he left the Impression that tho answer might wait until the speech of acceptance to be delivered In Dayton some time during the first part of August. Tho refusal to discuss the questions put up by Senator Harding caused con- siderable talk among the members of the Democratic National Committee, who are gathering for the purpose of making plana for the campaign.

JOHN L DOWNEY AND YORK HERALD, 20, particularly In view of the conference he had with President Wilson' lit Wash- ington less than twenty-fou- r hour be- fore, at which It was announced that everything was In complete accord be- tween the occupant of the White House and the nominee. The feeling has pre- vailed that It was the Democratlo strategy t put the Republicans on the defenslyo and keep them there, and not to let such a statement bo for any length of time. The White Housn ronforence formed the chief top to of discussion among the members nt Iho committee that and a close appraisal of Gov. Cox to many of whom the strains of the Cox band at San Francisco and a knowledge of the final convention vote had been their only point of contact up to date. Oft In little (roups at tho State House and In the lobby of ihf Dcshler Hotel,, which has assumed the proportions of Demo- cratlo headquarters, the members of the committee gathered and discussed the rotations between President Wilson and Oov. Cox. They couldn't make up their minds exactly what had taken plac whether President Wilson had come off victori- ous In getting Oov. Cox to swallow the White House of tho League of (Nations, hook, batt and all, or whether (Gov. Cox really had received from President Wilson Uie sword with which to lead Democracy through the coming campaign. Knowing Mr. Wilson, the members wore figuring on just wh.it ho meant when he said In the statement following the Whlto Hougo session that ho and Gov. Cox \were absolutely as one with regard to the great Issue of the League of Nation and that he Is ready to be the champion In every rtipcct of the honor of the nation and tho Bccurod peace of the world.\ See \White Homo Porll.\ Gov. Cox's visit to Washington, from which lio returned on tho eight o'clock train this morning, did not do him much good with many of the members of the committee, who are here from almost every State. They realise that tho Wil- son Is considerable of a burden, and they believe Gov. Cox could get along far better If he stood entirely on his own footing. They do not by any means want htm to break with tho President, but they are for htm to assume' full leadership and keep away from charges of 'White House Influence. In view of the White House statement. thry are not quite sure this has been stantly put Gov.

At present It is the Democratlo to maintain headquarters In New York city, Chicago, San Francisco and in Denver, but there la some favor among the committeemen toward the acceptance of tho Morrow recommenda- tion. This would mean on actual In- vasion of the Paclflo northwest by the Democrats. The bla; thins that. Is worrying; the Democratic committeemen is the subject of finance. There Is a feeling that money la not going to be so easy to get as might bo imagined, and especially slnco tho cost of campaigning this year Is going to be considerably more than ever before. Furthermore, the disposi- tion among the members who will have chargo of expenditures Is to get the Money In advanco to pay tho bills. There Is a reason. \When you win an election.\ one conv mtttecman said, \It's not very hard to get the money to pay the bills, even if there is no money in tho banic. 'mere's always somebody who will come through with a cheek. But when you lose, that's different It's best to get tho money first.\ This committeeman, who obviously did not wish his name revealed, has had much experience with campaign finance. It he continues to deal with finance, that alt Important matter In this present race for the Presidency, he Is going to be fairly certain that the money Is In sight beforo he starts out to spend.

Elaborato preparations are being made to wage a national campaign for small popular subscriptions. About $1,000,000 Is tho tentative figure set for fa campaign In the general dis- cussions, among members of tho commit- tee. This Is computed on the basis ot tho expenditures of four years ago, which for the Democratlo party amounted' to around f 1,000,000. Since that time, however, the cost of the ma- terials required for campaign purposes have almost doubled The tentative scheme on foot ht ti for Senator Atlee Pomerene (Ohio), a Democrat, to get In touch with Senator Kenyon.
