Mr.. Atterbury also proposed that tie

THE power TO initiate rates should
be with the carriers, and no body, ma
tional or state, should have the right
or power of suspension," said Mr.. At
terbury. There is no thought to re-

the re possibility which they have, to
fix penalties for unjust discrimination
or improper practices, or the eower
eventually to decide as to the reason

Official effort to reopen negotiations

At Wrexham today the miners
passed a resolution asking the fed
Grafton to issue arms instead of
strike pay to the locked ut min

With murmurs of revolution in
the air, the labor situation today
drifted in the direction of a ma
tional tie-up. Although the official
decision of the unions affiliated with
the miners regarding a walk -out
will not be announced before We'd

100000 railroad workers will be or
