mated and Much Opposition There
by Overcome.

Washington, Feb. 12.--While some
opposition to the railroad bill as fin
ally agreed upon in conference has
developed, senate and house leaders
predicted today that the conference
report would be promptly adopted
so that the legislation would be on
the statute books before the roads
are returned, March I.
The final draft of the conference
report is now being made. and it
will be presented Saturday or Mon
day. The house expects to take up
the report Monday or Tuesday at
the latest. and leaders said 1t would
be disposed of in two days.
Chairman Esch, of the house COM
mittee, one of the authors Of the
bill, and other leaders expressed
opinions that opposition by house
democrats would not delay presen-
tation Of the measure.
fact that the bill as written is SUBJ
stantially the same as the Esch bill
recently passed by the house.
Senate Provisions Eliminated.
Senate provisions to which there
was objection, including the anti
strike provision. creation OF a trans
portation board, and compulsory
consultations were eliminated in
conference. The essential addition
to the house bill was the fixing Of a
guaranteed return Of 5h per cent.
with the time already fixed by
President Wilson for return Of the
roads and the demand Of the people
that they be handed back" Chair
man Esch said today, failure to en-
act necessary legislation before
March / would be disastrous. I am
satisfied, however. that the confer
ence report viii be adopted without
delay ~.

General Strike Not Considered.
The unions, however. repose no
faith in the wage adjustment boards
of the railroad bill and believe they
will have no chance of winning their
demands after the government relin->
quishes the roads.
While the threat Of strikes was still
emanating from some cf the unions,
the leaders Of the four big brother
Fundamentally w. G.. Lee OF the
trainmen-were declaring that no
general strike was being considered
at this time.
Mr.. Lee was particularly emphatic
in a statement that reports about the
possibility of generalstrike are alb
solutely absurd. He cenied reports
that he had delivered a strike ulti-
matum to Director General Hines.
holeCtlOn OF DcIHdHUSs
The statement issued by the d.
rector general was prepared with g.
view to making the situation appear
as favorable as possible under the
circumstances, Notwithstanding the
fact that it constitutes a direct re-
lection of all the wage demandsfaf-
fecting 100000 railroad workers
which have been pending before the
railroad administration for more
than a year.
The director general, as he has ex-
planned in all his conferences with the
railroad organization representatives,
does not hold that the workers are
not entitled under present living con-
ditions TO more wages. but he has
insisted that it Is economically I'M
possible for the railroad administra-
ton, in view Of it's early termination.
to justify the award Of any higher
| wages.
Way Workers Certain to Strike.
Detroit, Feb .12.-Strike headquar-
ters were to be opened in fifteen cit
les by divisional officers of the
brotherhood of railway shop laborers
and maintenance of way men, from
which the strike will be- directed.
Final plans for the strike have been
made, union officials declared, and
only an agreement between represen-
tatives Of the men In Washington and
President Wilson, they said. will
avert the waKxout. II suoh agree
ment is reached it must come before
Saturday night or the strike order
can not be resoinded.
Allan T. Barker. international
president, expressed hope that today'a
conference, in which ]. B. Malloy,
vice president OF the union, was to
participate. might bring an agree
ment in. the controversy. Mr.. Bar
ker was in full accord. however. he
said. with the position taken by
President Lee. of the trainmsn'a
union, ana demands Of the workers
could no longer be held In abeyanee
in face Of mounting living costs.
