WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-Railroad
union men today are confident the
president will veto the Esch- Cummins
railroad bill.
The measure, passed by the senate
late yesterday, and by the house Sat
urday, was expected to be sent to the
white house today.
The railroad mems confidence OF
presidential veto is based on what
they interpret as promises OF a
Square deaT' made by the president
last summer when he asked them to
postpone pressing their wage demands
pending result of, the governments eff
fort to bring down prices. The labor
section of the Esch-Cummins' bill
does not give them square deal, :
union men contend, and they further
argue that in passing the measure
congress has deliberately ignored the
presidents promises to them.
What action Wilson takes on the
railway bill will probably be influ-
enced by advice of Rail Administrator
Hines, whose influence is more or less
a mystery Both opponents and
friends of the measure claim his sup
port.
In Louisville recently Hines spoke
in defense Of government contral.

MEAT DEALERS
Government Seeks Evidence Against
Butchers in All Sections
and Will Make
Arrests.

limited Press Leased Wire Service.] ]
= WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-The
United States bureau OF Investigation
is hunting evidence against retail
meat profiteers in every section of
the country, it was learned at the de-
partment of justice today. Arrests
are expected.
Assisting in the search for pro-
fiteering which was undertaken at
the order of Attorney General Palmer
are the 10000 volunteer workers
connected with fair price organiza-
tions. The bureau of investigation
personnel is approximately 10000,
making $4,000 who are taking part
in the drive.
Palmer, on his way back to Wash
ington, from Topeka, is being kept
informed Of developments in the
search.
Announcement that the retail meat
dealers were to be called to account
was made by Palmer few days ago
in Chicago. He pointed out that
wholesale prices of most kinds OF
meat have been cut in the last three
months while many retail dealers
have made no change in their prices.
Some even have increased prices.
At first the deaders declared the
low price meat had not yet reached
them and that they were selling meat
they had bought ut former high
prices. Justice department officials
have. however, been forced to the
conclusion that some retail dealers
