SENATE PLANS
 EMERGENCY LAM
 FUR RAILROADS
Unless Permanent Legislation Can Be Enacted by Jan. l !, Temporary Measures Will Be Taken to Protect Public

WASHINGTON, Nov. .5-Anew pro- gram to deal with the railroad situa- tion was arranged tentatively today by congressional leaders. It involves probable passage of temporary, emer- gency legislation to protect railroad and public interest should the carriers be returned by the president to pri- vate control January l, as MT. Wilson has announced is his intention.
 Although house leaders plan to press permanent railroad legislation in that body, the senate interstate commerce commission today agreed that final enactment by congress of the permanent legislation before Jan uary l virtually was hopeless, and steps were taken toward passing temporary bill continuing the rail roads federal compensation until the final legislation is completed.
 Transfer of the railroads from gov ernment to private control January l, the leaders were advised, has been decided on finally and unalterably by President Wilson and Director Gen eral Hines. Senate and house leaders in conference today agreed that every effort should be made by congress to enact the permanent legislation be- fore January l, but with almost cer- tain prospects of failure, the senate leaders arranged to care for the sit uation by enacting temporary legisla- tion, probably in December.
 The legislative program, arranged by leaders today, caIeG for beginning consideration of the house bill Mon day and it's passage during the week If the peace treaty is then disposed of, immediate senate consideration of inc permanent legislaeSon Is psruned. If it is decided to adjourn congress to afford a respite for members be- fore the new session of December 1, the bill will be placed in position for right of way in December. If it de- velops, as senate leaders declared to- day is practically certain, that the legislation cannot be completed by January l, the temporary measure to continue the governments guaranteed returns to the railroads will be passed

SHOVELING IS
 SCIENCE, MINE
 STUDENTS TOLD

Shoveling as a science was ex- pounded to the students of mining by J. T. Marshall, Lowell foreman, in the opening lecture of the second year of the practical mining course given by the Phelps Dodge corpora. tion, at the Y. M. c. A. building yes terday.
 MT. MarshalTs subject was Min ing and Mucking." Two classes were conducted, the lecture being deliv- cred at 1 o'clock in the afternoon, and again at 2 o'clock in the even ing. Encouraging interest was shown in the opening of the course, more than 200 attending the first days lectures.
 fShoveling is as elementary as mud and as ancient" said MT. Mar shall in opening his lecture. 1.-Two kinds of shoveling exist-one which is wasteful, extravagant and ineffi- cient; and the other economical, scientific, efficient and productive. The first is the result of precedent. the second is the result of an alysis."
 The speaker then described at length the scientific method of shov- cling, the result of long and exhaus- tive national study and comparison.
 'It is surprising what small pro portion of the men underground know how to use a shovel to the best advantage, and all sorts of tricks are resorted to in an effort to light en the work" said MT. Marshall. Every mucker, he declared, should know the following points:
 1. The necessity of using the cor rect type of shovel for any given purpose.
 2. The proper way to handle shovel. .
 3. The range of usefulness of a wheelbarrow and car.
 4. The advantage of using a plat form or turnsheets to shovel from.
 5. The mass of broken ore should be thoroughly loosened with pick ahead of shoveling..
 6. Shoveling should be done at good steady pace, the speed depend ing on the length of the job.
 Each point was explained by the speaker in detail. The lecture was listened to with great interest by the assembled miners.
 The next lecture will be held at the Y. M. c. A. next Wednesday at 1 and 2 D. m, when F. D. Lane, eff ciency engineer, will speak on Breaking Ground" The entire course comprises 40 lectures. Its purpose is to train men from the ranks of the miners to be efficient mine bosses. Examinations are given at the end of the course, and those who pass will be given certifl cates of efficiency by the Phelps Dodge corporation.
