alton alleged that the price Of the re-

WITH RAIL HEADS
Continued from Page Ont

recommended to the President as soon
as a conference with the railroad
unions could be held.
Forecasting at least one aspect OF
the final fight to be made on the re.
organization bill in the House. Rep
resentatiye Barklcy. Democrat, Ken
lucky, filed late today I statement
Of reasons for refusing to Join in
approving the conference compro-
mise measure, which he attacked as
comforting financial favorS" on the
carriers that would force increased
rates aggregating S1.25o,ooo.o 900 and
add to the cost Of living generally.
With Representative Sims Demo-
crat, Tennessee, who also declined to
sign the conference report, Mr.. Bark
ley will lead the door fight on the
bill. in which most Of the Democrats
are expected TO be supported BY a
few Republicans. Proponents OF the
measure, however, were conndent
that the compromise bill will be ap-
proved by the House before adjourn
ment Saturday.
The financial favors," Mr.. Barley
charged. were to be attributed to the
work Of ''hish-saiaried agents Of rail.
road security holders. who have camp
ed on the doorsteps OF Congress foI
more than a year" Attacking the A.
nancial provisions Of the bill In this con.
nection. Mr. Barley declared ut Is al
most inconceivabie that Congress could
be induced to adopt such course
referring particularly to the provision
that rates yilding 6 per cent. on the
book value Of the railroads with any
| excess earnings be divided between the
carriers and the government so as te
create Jackpot to aid weak lines.
In his statement the Kentucky repre-.
sentative revealed that the conferees
on railroad legislation expect Congress
soon to he asked for al appropriation 81
500 10000 to wind up the affairs Of ths
railroad administration. In this connec.
ton he said that an exact statement OF
| these financial needs was expected &c
he given the House Saturday.
Representatives Of the railroad labol
unions met tonight with friendly mem.
eers OF the House to discuss the com.
! promise bill. During the day man,
members Of Congress received letter.
and telegrans from union leaders urg.
ing that government control be contin.
ued for two years
