Railroad executives declare that II
they grant their employees an eight hour
day they will start the biggest eco
nomic fight OF history.
One big reason for their refusal to
accede to the Presidents demand for
recognition Of eight hours as a working
day. they say. is the enormous pressure
brought on them by shippers mot to
start anything when they don't know
where II will stop
IF we grant an eight-hour day II

STANDOF CONGRESS
ON RAILROAD CASE
LEADING TOPIC HERE
Probable Action In Event Of
Strike Widely Discussed In
Official Quarters.

What Congress could and would do In
event Of nationwide strike on the
railroads was as much mooted a ques-
ton among legislative and Administra-
tion officials today as-was the probable
ity of the strike itself.
The Presidents seal Of silence placed
on Senators Kern and Newlands, fol-
lowing their conference yesterday after
noon. was non-breakable. 1t wan be-
lieved word was passed around for 9TH
er Senators and CONGRESSMAN not Tin
the know" to refrain from talking on
the subject. for none would be quoted
directly or indirectly. even regarding
possible lines along which Congress
could act.
, Some Possible Steps.
Before the Presidents call at the Capt.
tol, however, some Senators agreed Con-
gress might take one or several of six
steps. They were:
Pass Senator Newlands bill directing
the Interstate Commerce Commission to
Investigate and advise as to the best
way out of the .quandry.
Direct the joint interstate commerce
committee to proceed with Investigation
OF all railroads. especially as to wages
and working hours, and to report on
advisability OF Government ownership.
Enlarge the Interstate Commerce
ComrhIRlon by two members and d.
reot It to investigate advisabiliy of
granting increased freight rates which
would give the roads ample additional
revenue to grant wage and eight-hour
day demands made by the employees.
Enactment of a law which would tend
take over and operate the roads when
he believes the general welfare de-
mands 1t, as was done during the civil
war.
Enacment OF a law which would tend
to compel arbitration. or which would
at least prevent q strike or lockout
during the course OF an investigation
like one OF the several suggested.
Request by the Government for Fed
eral recelverships. during which time
tentative agreement with employees
would be arranged.
Justice Department at Work.
In connection with the last sugges-
tion. II has been known for more than
a week that the Department of Justice
has been quietly looking into this
phase OF the situation.
Suggestions that the Government Cd
crate, or compel operation OF the roads
with the help Of the army were said to
be out OF the question" Senator
Kern. Democratic foor leader. hold
this view.

Although Alonzo Gubbins drove a There never was grocery wagon driver who dreamed more dreams and erected more air castles than did Aonzo in the course of his calls upon customers of the well known Phoenix supply house by which he was em- ployed.
 Somewhere in his makeup was a strain of the romantic that caused him to lean toward the modern stage as the one fitting and appropriate means or expressing himself It was not that he yearned to be John Drew or q J. Warren Kerrigan. Gubbins ad- mitted to himself, and with proper modesty. that he had the physical equipment for such a calling. But the histrionic ability was lacking. It was possibly his realization of this lack that caused him to desire other things theatrical.
 He wanted to be an angel" Of course 1t would take money to become an .'angel'-huge Jumps and piles of it. But Alonzo was fairly sure of becom- ing wealthy, some day. His Uncle Dave hadn't been a contractor in Omaha for the love of 1t. and his Uncle Dave knew that of all the nephews Alonzo was the most deserving. So, Alonzo could, with some degree of reason, plan the days when he would walk. silk -hatted into the managers office, to be greeted effusively. shown to the best seat and consulted about productions.
