BERLIN, July 28.—I have search-
ed in vain for hopeful features in
the European flnarikial situation.
Financial disintegration, which is
proceeding here, is not, unfortu-
nately, confined to Germany. It has
progressed still further in Austria
and is progressing inevitably in
Hungary.
Bulgaria is also in its grip. Italy,
despite well directed heroic efforts,
is facing a most serious situation.

by the nature of the peace. Mis-

most as disastrous to the victors as
to the vanquished. Not until seri-

these mistakes will reconstruction

WASHINGTON, July 28.—Three propos-
als for immediate ending of the railroad strike
have been submitted to representatives of the
railroad executives and labor unions by Presi-
dent Harding, according to information obtain*
ed today from administration advisors who
talked with the executive.
Three proposals, all hinging on various—I
plans for adjusting the employes' seniority
rights, will be submitted, it was said, to the ex-
ecutives’ meeting in New York Tuesday and to
an employes’ conference in Chicago to be ar-
ranged by B. M. Jewell, the shopmen’s leader. .
Outside railroad contracting, it wax said, would be abandoned by
the roads under each of the three proposals.
One of the proposals, according to those claiming to have infer- I
illation of the President’s suggestions, would be for the railroads to ’ 1
waive the seniority qustion and take all strikers back to wor|t. Another
was said to be to give “loyal” men-who have remained at work prior
seniority rights over strikers,-and the third5 was for separate adiuat-
ment of the seniority dispute by each road with its own employes thru I
joint committees to be appointed. . —
The President was suid by his advisors to believe that the three I
proposals promised considerable hope of a strike settlement an41 to de- I
clare that “more clouds had passed away" in the railway situation within I
the past few hours than for several weeks. 4 - . -n**"-*-!
There were indications from various sources close to the two par- I
tics to the strike that leaders of the shopmen had manifested an tn- I
clination to accept the President’s plan in the main and that represent- I
atives of the executives considered it unsatisfi^rtory in principle. Final I
decision, however, will rest with conferences of the two groups. I

Ma,field's Statement
In a statement given out here
yesterday Earl B. Mayfield thank-
ed his friends for their support and
says analysis of the returns shows
Texans are more interested In pre-
serving the life of the State Rail-
road Commission than they are in
another great economic question
and dedicates his candidacy to sup-
port of that movement. The Brew-
ers’ Association, ho says, has for
its program repeal of the Volstead
law. which “would mean nullifica-
tion of the Eighteenth Amendment,
the return of the open saloon on the
corner and the complete undoing of
the work of the prohibition forces
of the Nation for the last fifty
years.” He charged that the Fer-
guson candidacy was pitched upon
that Issue, and that the outstand-
ing issues In the runoff will be the
repeal of the Esch-Cummins law
and the light'wine and beer amend-
ment to the Volstead law.

James E. Ferguson yesterday re-
news his platform pledges given In
his original statement at the be-
ginning of the first caiftpaign. but
sgys he would vote on the wine snd
beer issue according to instructions
given him by voters of Texas. That

Prince." Rellgldu" and political lib-
erty are questions "above and be-
yond” all others, he asserts, and
"we must lay aside for a time the
dlscussloq of our Views on all ques-
tions untll we banish from thia coun-
try the Idea that anybody can here
establish an empire or an Imperial
palaxe, ruled by any kind of king,
wlsard or prince.”
