tives OF the four railroad rotherhoods
were gathered here today from all
sections of the country to outline
the policies contingent on the action
OF the supreme courts decision in
the Adamson law case. w G. Lee,
president OF the trainmen's union.
estimated that 500 delegates would be
present.
Three OF the presidents, w. s.

trainmen: are already on the job for
the preliminary conference. A. B.

The rumor that the railway confer
ence committee would come to Chi
cago to meet with the unions was
denied by J. w. Higgins, chairman Of
the general managers association.
The gathering here is purely union
affair. he stated.
The delegates, one representing
each railway in the country, have
been ordered not to talk and the three
AcdASAS WHO nave luC duthOAASy W
disclose the inside plans of the con-
vention, were reticent today. Aside
from the fact that the conference
will take up the consideration of the
new Law, Representative Adamson
has proposed, they stated that there
was nothing to give out.
The meeting today will be the first
general gathering Of the representa-
tives of the 100000 train service en-
ployes since the Washington confer
ence preceding the passage OF the
Adamson bill.
The chief subjects which will be
discussed by the delegates are:
What action can be taken by
the brotherhoods to defeat proposal
that congress pass legislation com.
peiling the railway men to submit
their calims, under all circumstances,
to arbitration.
What action shall be taken in
case the, supreme court declares the
Adamson law unconstitutional.
3-What action shall be taken if
there be undue delay after decision
is reached.
What shall be done in case the
supreme court upholds the law and
the railways still find means OF
evading obedience to its terms.
Unofficial comment was that unless
some move actually meeting their
demands was made, the brotherhoods
would strike quickly and hard Ito
bring the roads to their senses"
