UNIONS BELIEVE
RES|DENT WILL
VETO RAIL BILLS
With cummins Measure Passed in
the Senate and House Eyes
Turn to Wilson for Indication
of His Official Action.
By United Press.

I pJ OHlLeu freSS.
Washington, Feb. 24-The railroad
unions are confident that the presi.
dent will veto elch of the Cummins
bills. The measure passed the SEN
ate late yesterday and the house
late Saturday and it is expected that
it Will be sent to the president for
his signature today.
The railroad mems confidence is
based on the presidents assertion
of a square deal last summer when
he asked them to postpone pressing
their wage demands pending the re-
suit of the governments efforts to
bring down prices.
Union men contend that the bill
fails to give chem a square deal"
The presidents action on the bill
will probably be influenced by tie
advice of Walker d. Hines, director
Of railroads, whose attitude is more
or less a mystery. Both the friends
and opponents of the measure claim
Hines support
In Louisville, Hines spoke for the
measure. On the other hand, yes
terday notice was served on the
railroads that nll roads would be re-
turned to their owners on March /.
This was taken to mean that the
president would sign
What action would result in case
the measure is vetoed by the ma
tons chief executive is uncertain
1t would not be possible to muster
enough votes in the house to pusa
the bill over the presidents veto, ~
is believed. The senate, apparently,
would override the veto.
During the five hours of debate,
led by Chairman Cummlns of the in
terstate commerce committee, sena
tors expressed varying opinions as
to aow the public and the railways
would fare under the bill, which was
warmly defended and attacked. But
the intense interest which attended
proceedings Saturday in the house
was lacking, frequent quorum calls
being necessary to get members in
the chamber. The patience OF the
senate apparently became exhausted /
after the long selson of speech max
ing and insistent demands for a vote I
cut short the desire to prolong pre-
sentation of individual views.
Discussion related largely to the /
labor and rate-mlking provisions. /
Senator Cummins, with great feel
ing, denounced widespread claims
that in fixing freight and passenger
charges calculated to give the roads (
a return of 1-2 per cent meant TAX
ing huge sums OF money from the I
public treasury, The bill, he de-
clared, would not take one dollar in
that way. Such reports, he said,
were merely part of the prOpagan-
da, put forth in an effort to defeat
legislation on the ever of return of
the railroads to their owners on
