WASHINGTON, Dec. 2S.--A confer

representatives of the railroads and
representatives of the railroad bro
therhoods. on the La Toilette bill, TO
limit the hours of continuous labor by
employees operating railroad trains.
may result in some modification of .he
bill.
The bill which is to be voted on af-
ter the holidays limits to sixteen the
number of hours an employe may re-
main on duty. There are many SEN
ators who are friendly to organized
labor but belive the measure is i'm
practical, because IL may affec. west
ern railroads with long hauls whore a
change OF trainmen would work in
convenience and delay. Some of the
western trainmen have protested
against the La Toilette bill. One sen
ator received a vigorous protest 20
day against the measure from a con
ductor. prominent In the railway EN-
ployers' union movement. The rep.
resentatives of the railroad brother
hoods realized that the opposition
from members Of their own organiza-
tions would seriously embarras II not
defeat the bill. and thereupon they IN
vited a conference with the railroad
managers. It is believed that such
notifications win be made in the bill
to insure Its passage when the vote Is
taken In January.
