RESPONSIBILITY FOR GREAT STRIKE WILL
 BE ON RAIL HEADS IF NO AGREEMENT
Continued From Page One)

,n President Wilson's public statement That comforted them and led to belief that eventually there will be an agree hept averting strike. The first was a Hint that if the facts warranted, the in- Interstate commerce commission might Trant an increase in freight rates and ihe second was a suggestion that the |fight-hour day base would be accepted ,nly tentatively and might be terminated After investigation by the commission Iirovided under the Presidents plan.
 NO CONCLUSION l1 The railroad officials, however, evi
 lently feel that before a decision is ,eached every opportunity should be iiven other business interests to decide khat might be the effect on them of an liight-hour railroad day. There was no ioncealment of the fact that some of hem believe many manufacturers and ,hippers are bound to register their op. ,ure will be exerted to have members of he Senate and House express to ths President their convictions along the
 lame line.
 {, It was after a prolonged meeting at heir hotel that the railroad Presidents
 vent to the White House shortly before loon today.
 President Wilson welcomed them in the
 Hue room and after MT. Holden had
 lated their position, began dramatic
 tppeal which left his visitors sobered Ind thoughtful At times striding up and town in front of the small group and em- ,hasizing telling points by shaking hiA .st, the President told the railroad exec .itives bluntly he believed they should ac- tIept his plan.
 Z: "We must face the naked truth in this arisis," he said. eve must not discuss impractical things. We must get down

 olved."

portion of their demands and signi1ed their willingness to accept the Presidents suggestion. The railway companies, after appealing to the government, seem about as unwilling to accept suggestions from the President of the United tSates as they have in the past refused to consider re- quests from their employees. We are in Washington as the invited guests of the President and shall take no further &C., ton until released by him."
 MT. Lee said he issued the statement to set clearly before the public the pres- ent position of the brotherhoods. He said that until the Presidents efforts to bring about an amicable adjustment were ex- hausted and the brotherhoods were so notified, the negotiations will not be con- sidered closed.

tions acting on different basis in re- spect to wages and standards of living from what we have.
 Everywhere along the line from this time on we have got to consider not what each one can do in a haphazard way, but what Is the best way to do things, in order to achieve things in the future.
 We have a world yet to do in this country. We are loose. We are dis jointed and we are unorganized. I want to see fair cooperation on a proper basis with such supervision as may be necessary to prevent abuses in order that we can go forward and ad vance our foreign trade throughout the world"

 NO HALFWAY MEASURES
 "When you start out to be military, be military and not political" MT. Hughes told an audience in Oakland.
 'I do not believe we can run this government by mixing business and politics" the nominee said to a gath ering of business men here a short time before the Oakland meeting. At Oakland MT. Hughes repeated his dec laration that he favored fostering hon. orable achievements in business and adjusting difficulties by finding the facts and acting upon them.
 You can break down your prosper ity by prostituting yourself in the face of an unjust popular demand" MT. Hughes said. q shall never do that And the unjust popular demand Is only unjust because the facts are not un- derstood The only thing I am afraid of in this country is the dark. When we get things out into the light of day and see the actual facts, we gener- ally find out where the truth and justice lies.
 NONPARTISAN SPEECH
 In his address to business men of San Francisco at the Commercial club, MT Hughes said:
 "This is a nonpartisan gathering. do not want to abuse it by talking in a partisan way, but should be unjust to myself if I did not say that as a principle-as principle which of course must be carefully and prudently applied-that we must have the idea of protecting American enterprise against the competition of other na-

POSITION OF RAILROADS

The statement President Holden of the Burlington made to President Wilson at the conference follows:
 The representatives of the railroads here present have given careful consid- eration of the proposals submitted by you for an adjustment of the critical condi- tions confronting us. May we again ex- press the grave sense of responsibility upon our shoulders to discharge, as faith ful trustees of the public interest, effi- cient at all times-to serve the continu- ous public demand for transportation service-as faithful trustees also to pro tect, insofar as it is in our power, the interests the owners of these properties committed to our care.
 Tn the previous stages of these nego- tiations, the conference committee of managers has consistently adhered to the policy of arbitration as & fundamental principle-it is essentially the common right of every citizen of whatever sta- tion in life, to be heard-to have his day in court-it is indeed a substitute for wasteful litigation recognized long since in the codes of all civilized coun- tries.
 "A denial of the right to be heard does not exist under any form of government with which our race has ever been fla miliar and the common acceptance in in ternational affairs, in the adjustment of public and private rights under our fed eral and state governments, of the prin- ciple of arbitration as an approved method for the friendly settlement of the serious contentious of the parties, has put the right to claim arbitration as a method of settling such controversies be- yond question. For these reasons, we have supported our committee in their continuous demand that in those mpor- tant particulars upon which no agree ment could be reached. arbitration should be accorded upon any reasonable basis that might be adopted.
 SUBJECT OF ARBITRATION
 "The eight-hour day-I shall not at this time stop to fully analyze or com-

leaders, however, thought the negoti ations would last that long. They eX- pect a climax in the situation Monday or Tuesday, when the other railroad presidents arrive.
 Many of the broterhood men called on their representatives in Congress today and protested in advance against any compulsory arbitration bill which might be introduced

ALL ARBITRATION IN PERIL

Tt Will, by the force of this high precedent, place in peril all that has been
 accomplished in the peaceful adjustment
 of labor controversies by methods of ar
 bitration and therefore we present to you our respectful but earnest request that
 you do not lend the weight of your great influence against this right, which
 we claim to be heard, but support the
 railroads in this crisis in the effort to
 maintain this great principle of arbitra- tion."
 The statement concludes with this ad
 dition:
 MT. Holden then explained that in &C.,
 cordance with past custom and the re-
 quirements of the situation, complete au-
 thority to conduct negotiations in behalf
 of the railroads in the present controversy
 has been conveyed to the conference com-
 mittee of managers. He further ex-
 authority to speak only for the proper ties each represents. It is understood that telegrams were sent from the White House to other railroad executives of the country and the conference adjourned pending their arrival"

ONLY ONE LAW WANTED

There is only one bill that the broth erhood men are anxious to see come out of the present agitation. That would be a measure to empower the govern ment in case of a strike to operate the railways with the present crews on an eight-hour basis pending a settlement of the differences between the rail- roads and their employees. One of the leaders guessed" today that such a bill would be introduced in case of a strike.
 By the railway executives the claim was made tonight that a strike could be broken within a week.
 The claim was made that, in case of a strike, many of the old engineers would refuse to go out and that with these men, the railways would be able to continue operation of trains
 These claims all are denied vehe- mently by the brotherhood men, who contend they have so firm a grasp on the situation that they could bring the roads speedily to terms should a strike ha
