favor the liquidation OF a substan

as practicable. In view of the de-

Director Favors Cummins Bill

The Cummins bill is an admirable e
start toward settlement of the rail
road problem, in the opinion of Rob
erts Walker. of the law firm of White
d Case. Mr.. Walker is a director Of
the Chicago e. Alton.
II understand that the bin was re-
ported unanimously by the Senate SUD
committee" he said Yesterday. This
fact is very hopeful as indicating the
determination by Congress to arrive at
an earl y plan for disposition of the
railroads" The provisions in regard to
labor, Mr.. Walker thinks, are construc-
tive, and he feels that in turn for fuil
representation on the board which will
settle disputes regarding wages and
working conditions labor should be
willing to support legislation makir Q
strikes illegal. He looks with some
alarm however, upon the provision
that the Interstate Commerce Commits.

Recent events have developed
