forAdincussion OF the demands of the
four railroad qbrotherhoods for re-.
vision .sof working: conditions, which
have been in progress between the
brotherhood chiefs and Director Gen.
eral Hines all week, appeared today
to be NEARING an end. Railroad ad-
mintstra ation aofacials believed all ar
guments woMlda have been completed
within 2 4 honrs:p There was no indi-
cation. however, whether Mr.. Hines
would give an immediate answer or
reserve his decision.
The principal question remaining in
dispute is the demand Of the brother
hoods for time and half for over
time for trainmen in road service.
Labor leaders admitted this to be the
pivotal point.
Mr.. Hines was said to have stood
steadfast1y by his previous declara-
ton that no general advance in wages
could be given serious consideration
owing to the imminent return of the
roads to private operation.

and pulp associations committee on
forest conservation in a report sub
mitted to the association conference
here today Such ownership was said
to be essential for the growing of the
older and larger sizes of timber, its
production being too long and haz-
ardous an undertaking with too little
earnings to attract private capital in
adequate amounts.
Public purchase of cut over lands
by the nation and the states should
be enlarged and extended to all parts
of the country, the report said.
