CHEERS GREET MARSHAL FOCH Gala Day at New Yorkas War Chief Arrives NEW YORK, Oct. 28—With shrieking sirens, booming cannon and wave after wave of cheers, America today welcomed Ferdinand Foch, marshal of France. The great military leader, en route to attend the American Legion con- vention at Kansas City, arrived this afternoon on the French liner Paris anid landed at the Battery. Lower Broadway from the Battery to City Hall park, the historic route followed by the distinguished v itors, was walled with cheering, hat and fing waving thousands whose vocal greeting to the man whose strategy beat the Germans echoed and reverberated through the canon of the skyscrapers. Miles of ticker tape showered down from brokers’ window Torn paper fluttered down like a veritable snow- storm. Foch's welcome was that of a con- queror. General Pershing, who arrived on the George Washington from Europe shortly before Foch, preceded him to the Battery and welcomed him when he technically set foot on American soll by stepping from the tug Vigi- lant to Pier A. As Foch came up the bay from the Paris to the Battery, the Vitri- jant was flanked by two destroyers, while behind followed several ferry and police boats, crowded with French and American war veterans in uniform and patriotic societies with bands playing, while the chorus of sirens wag deafening, Marshal Foch stood saluting again and again, At the Battery double rows of American troops presented arms on the pier, forming a lane for Foch and Pershing to walk thru. The Battery was packed with spectators.

Union Leaders Call Off Oc- tober 30 Strike on Prom- ise of No Wage Cuts of the government, as represented by the United States railroad board, was transmitted to 400,000 workers of the transportation group of rail employes, | asia oF SETTLEMENT Brotherhood chiefs, in a confer- ence that lasted all day and far into the night, decided to rescind the order for a strike which was to start at 6:30 Bunday morning. The basis of settlement follows: 1. Brotherhoods accept the as- surance of the railroad board that No petitions for cuts in wages, pre- sented by carriers, will be consit- ered until decisions are reached on rules and working conditions. Jh ia taken to mean there will be wage cuts on the roads for a not to act arbitrarily in matters of wages and working conditio: but to submit all matters to the rail- road board. To Ren Hooper, President Hard. ing’s spokesman on the ratiroad board, is given the credit for avert- ing the strike. Hooper appeared as an “unin- vited” guest before the brotherhood chiefs and their executive commit- tees, HOOPER WINS BIG VICTORY He warned, threatened, promi« and won the leaders who had termined the strike would go on. The resolution passed by the board several days ago, which stated there would be no consider. ation of wage cuts until working agreements were passed upon, was ithe basis of settlement Hooper offered.

Henderson, superintendent of the municipal rail. way, in a report submitted to the mayor and elty council Friday, Henderson's conclusions ~— were reached after an extended tour of Hastern cities, during which time he studied the practical operation of the trollibuses. “I believe,” Henderson declared, “that in districts such as Cowen park, Beacon hill, 35th ave, 8. W., 10th ave. N. B., Fifth ave. N. B. and Woodland Park ave. north of Green lake, the trackless trolley bus would be more efficient and more satisfac: tory to the public and to the railway division than the present gas buses which we are now using.” Henderson pointed out that the trolley buses do not require rails, thereby effecting a great saving, and also that they are cheaper to oper. stroet cur, WEATHER Tonight and Saturday, rain; fresh southerly gale. ‘Temperature Last 24 Hours Maximum, 59.
