Hope OF Quick Action On Cummins
Measure Abandoned. +.
Washington, Dec. 12.-Hope of en-
acting railroad legislation by January
l, the date on which President Will
son has announced the roads would be
turned back to private control, vir-
tually has been abandoned by Senate
leaders.
Strong and unexpected opposition
developed during consideration of the
Cummins bill, designed to meet condi-
tons with the end of government con-
troll.
In view of the short time" remaining
before the Christmas recess and the
fact that the Cummins bill, if passed,
must be sen to conference with the
Esch bill, recently passed by the
House, Republican and Democratic
senators predicted that it would not
be possible to frame a law by the end
of the month even if Congress kept
steadily and continuously at work.

The prediction was made a week
ago that you would be able to show
your head out of your house the day
after December 18th. that is, you
will if the ordinary laws of nature
are obeyed, according to HE. Simp.
son, professor of meteorology at. the
university and weather observer for
Grand Forks. The talk of a tenn
'perature of 10 degrees below zero for
that day is pure bunk the weather
man says. The coolest natural
weather ever recorded in history is
only "a below zero at Vehoyanask,
Siberia. IN the United States the
weather bureau has v recorded
any temperature lowe. than IS de
>grees below zero. In January, 1888,
the weather bureau at Fort Keogh
Miles City, Montana, reported tina
dow temperature. "The conjunction
of the planets has no known relation
to weather conditions on the EARTH,
jMr. Simpson said. 1.-The talk ahou
"a low temperature in connection o
certain planets is probably largely
attempt of the popular mind to eS
panfing the low temperature of tn
