one week from today, gave color to the
belief that the President intended to ac-
cept the measure.
Although Congress by the Senate $
action got rid of the railroad problem for
the time being, members Of both House
and Senate SAID they expected that within
short time they would be confronted
with demands for radical modification Of
the legislation. a drive by labor for this
purpose is what they expect, and they
look for it before election.
Should the President veto the bill, the
Senate would promptly rcpass it, leaders
predicted tonight. They pointed to the
more than two-thirds majority the con-
ference report obtained as proof of this
assertion. They said they would look for
the same result in the House.
OF the IL votes against the report IN the
Senate, Ii were cast by Democrats. Thirty
two Republicans and Is Democrats voted
for the report.
(Senator Ball of Delaware vote for the
passage of the bill. Senator Wolcott's vote
is not recorded. He probably was absent.)
There was no debate worthy the name
except brief passage between Senators
Pittman of Nevada, Democrat, and
Poindexter of Washington, at the end
of the day Senator Pittman voted against
the conference report because, he said,
it perpetuated the long and short haul
rate evil. Mr.. Poindexter argued that de-
feat of the present legislation would not
remedy that evil, but Mr.. Pittman said
If the conference report was defeated an
opportunity would be given Western Sena-
tors to get redress.
Senator Cummins opened the discus
sion in presenting the report to the Sem
ate His speech was devoted in large
part to answering the critics of the lcgis-
lation, mostly its labor critics, and to
explaining why the Senate conierrees
were forced to yield to the House on so
many important provisions.
Mr. Cummins said Section 6 of the
bill, relating to the guaranty of 512 per
cent to the railroads, had been "the
subject of the grossest Misrepresentation

s9 PER WEEK

Paid while you learn; women who enter telephone work are not limited to the actual work of operating at the switch board; those who are ambitious and display energy and ability may advance rapidly to posi- tions paying salaries of $1oo per month and more. One out of every nine young women in the telephone service occupy supervisory positions. and in Birmingham the salaries of such positions are from $60 per month and up. A number of high grade young women are needed in Birmingham to aug ment the operating force. From these will be selected many for supervisory positions at at  tractive salaries, as required by growth and improvements. Women of superior education need not hesitate about enter ing telephone work; their ad- vancement and remuneration wal be measured by their abil- ity, as is attested by the many college women now in the Bell telephone service. The condi- tions under which telephone work is done are ideal; the operating rooms are clean. well ventilated, well lighted and well heated. The rest rooms are attractive and comfortable; the dining rooms are bright spots of cleanliness, and the kitchens are among the most sanitary in Birmingham. The food is of the best quality, and served at actual cost. Well known and experienced women act as matrons and devote their efforts toward safeguard ing the health and comfort of the young women. Annual va cations are given with full pay, and there is protection from financial loss in the case of sickness. ss per week is paid when you enter the train ing class.
