EXPECT PRESIDENT TO
 AWAIT LEGISLATION

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-Given an renewed opportunity by restoration of the measure to the committee of the whole, senate critics of the Cummins railroad bill today launched a new and heated attack on various provi- sions of the legislation designed to meet conditions incident to the forth coming return of the railroad prop critics.
 Senators LaFollette, Republican of Wisconsin, and Dial, Democrat, South Carolina, led the renewd attack and their discussion of the bill occupied virtually the entire session. The re- suit at adjournment was that the CTS, however, expressed hope tonight that final vote would be reached be- fore the end of the week.
 Must Go Over
 During the debate today Republican leaders of the senate and house con- ferred regarding holiday recess plans and leaders of the lower branch were assured that there is every prospect of having the railroad legislation sent to conference before the holiday re- cess planned to begin December 20. Final enactment of the legislation is not probable until after congress re convenes next month. Confidence was expressed bYthe confereees, however, that President Wilson would await enactment of the legislation in Jan uarN before, turning back the proper ties.
 Senator LaFollette urged a five year extension of government control and charged that the pending meas ure was virtually for the benefit ot the railroads.
