WILLARD is PLEASED
3. & 0. President Approves Results
Of labor confererlce.

President Willard of the Baltimore
and Ohio, who attended the confer
enee In Washington on Monday called
by President Wilson to discuss means
to avert a railroad strike by conduc,
tors and trainmen, said yesterday he
was greatly pleased at the results of
the conference and with the promis-
ed indications that the differences be-
tween the men and the railroads will
be amicably arbitrated
He said he felt that the suggested
changes in the manner of conducting
future arbitration proceedings grow
ing out Of disputes between employers
cf labor and their workmen would be
found beneficial to those directly in
terested and to the public.
President Willard said the passage
of the Newlands-Clayton amendment
ITO the Erdman act now in effect will
be step forward in that the inter
est of the employees, the railroads
and the public will be protected in
equal degree 1t should also serve to-
minimize the possibilities of resorting
to other means than mediation or ar
bitration
The Newlands Clayton amendment
to the Erdman act met with the APP
proval Of the labor leaders and rail-
read executives said President Viii
lard, and with some amendments
which were discussed and agreed TO
appeared to meet with the APPROVAL Of
those who attended the conference.
"The suggestion of the railroads in
conducting the negotiations with the
labor organizations during the vari-
Gus movements for Increased wages
in recent years has been that while
the Erdman act now in force was
passed with a view 10 avoiding diff
ferences between employer and EN-
ploye, it did not provide sufficient rep
RESERVATION for the third party in in
terest namely the pubhc. This the
Newlands-Clayton act will aeccmp
lish."
Mr.. Willard having represented
the railroads on the board .of arbi-
tration which settled the dispute with
the locomotive engineers last fall, is
known to entertain the same views
on the question Of arbitration as
were expressed in the report OF that
board, which the proposed act real
