BROTHERHOODS GET
WHITE HOUSE CALL
Chiefs and Legislative Agents
of Four Roads Summoned
by President.
CONFERENCE ON THURSDAY

President Wilson mas summoned the
chiefs and legislative agents of the four
railroad brotherhoods to q conference
at the White House, Thursday.
1t is expected that the President Will
outline to the representatives of the
railroad workers whatever action he has
decided is necessary to obtain more eff
eient transportation in the war crisis.
Both the chiefs and the Legislative
agents have conferred with the Presi-
dent recently, the chiefs soon after
their demands were made on the rail-
roads for increased wages. and the leg
islative agents several days ago. when
they asked for assurances that war de-
mands should not relax hhe safety re-
strictions imposed on railroad opera
ton. They were told that nothing OF
that Kind was contemplated.
The new conference came as COM
plete surprise in the railroad situation
President Wilson has been studying all
phases of the question and it has been
understood that he intended to address
Congress on the subject after the holi-
days.
While sentiment in favor of govern
mental operation of the roads appar-
emily has been growing. no intimation
Of what the President would recon
mend has been given, and pending his
address it was thought no further ac-
ton was contemplated.

ROADS MAY GET RAISE
Financial Circles Report Concession
to Companies in East in Matter
of Freight Rates.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 24.-Accord-
ing to prominent stock brokers and
bankers on Wall street, the Interstate
Commerce Commission has reached a
conclusion in it's consideration of the
petition of the eastern railroads for an
increase in freight rates.
1T will be recalled that the commits
sion reopened this case of its own initi-
ative, yielding to the numerous reports
of the unsatisfactory conditions due to
increased operating expenses without
corresponding increases in receipts.
The statement is made in financial
circles with positiveness that the east
ern roads will be granted increases of
10 to Is per cent on practically all
freight with the exception of a few i'm
portant commodities on which there is
a shortage in the American markets at
this time.
Wall street accepted the news as fact.
and evidenced its belief in the truth of
the leak" by advancing the prices of
rails one to two dollars share

STATE DEPARTMENT
DEFENDS RED CROSS
Doubts That Aid Is Being
Given Opponents of BoI-
shevik Government.

State Department officials declared to-
day that the statements of Leon Trot-
sky, the bolsheyiB foreign minister,
that the American Red Cross mission in
Russia was giving aid to the opponents
of the bolshevik government, could be
attributed only to his ignorance of the
facts.
A report from Ambassador Francis on
the arrest Of Col. KolpashinoT. an at
tache. of the Red Cross mission.- while
in charge of a relief train. had not
reached the State Department.
The State Department does not be-
lieye Trotzky will persist in his atti-
tude. however. when he realizes the
true state of affairs. Arrangements
were made in this country some time
ago for strengthening the Ambulance
Corps of Russia with seventy-eight
needed in certain districts. It was
deemed advisable to send them via the
Rumanian frontier. This was done
with the approval of the Russian Red
Cross.
The incident of money which it was
alleged Ambassador Francis had offered
and the insinuation that it was in
tended as 4 bribe to the enemies of the
bolsheviki had no other Significance
1t was merely the ordinary transfer of
money through the embassy sent by
the Red Cross and intended for relief
work
The State Department regards the ac-
ton of Trotzky as entirely unwar-
ranted.
