Spartanburg, April THE find
ing Of the body of Glenn Foster ear
ly today "a half mile above the spot
where Guy Mcdowell was found
shot to death on the previous day,
revealed double murder, which
must have taken place some time
last Tuesday afternoon. The dead
men were both public car drivers,
married, and widely connected in
this section of the state, The scene
of the tragedy is a small branch two
miles west of the city and bordering
the Camp Wadsworth reservation.
Foster, whose body was found this
morning by searchers, had been shot
twice and his body had fallen in the
stream: :. o..
. The coronor's jury Investigating
the case tonight found that he came
to his death at the hands of parties
unknown, but recommended that T.
e. Lanford, who is now in Jail in
connection with the murder of Guy
Mcdowell, ; be held in the Foster
case, pending further investigation.
Lanford was seen with the men and
is believed. to have accompanied
them to the section of the country
where their bodies were found. At
the inquest over McDowelrs body,
he refused to testify. He is the son
of the owner of the land on which
the bodie were found and was until

to hasten settlement of the labor
difficulties between the railroads and
their employees, the executive COM
mittee of the National Association of
Owners of Railroad Securities, meet
ing here today, invited the heads OF
the "big four" railroad brotherhoods
to attend a conference in New York
April 4 to discuss the situation.
A special committee Of 25 mem
bers, representatives Of the various
sections Of the country, also was ap-
pointed and will enleavor to be help
full, a statement said, "in assisting
to relieve the immediate situation
and later, generally helpful in such
directions as may appear ESSENTIAL"
Reviewing general railroad prob
lens, the committees statement de-
clared that the present dispropor-
tionate relation between operating
costs and revenue and between pres
ent railroad rates and fares apd the
revenue derived therefrom must, ii
not relieved, result in consequences OF
serious concern, not alone to owners
of railroal securities but to shippers

the committee said the railroads care

| %One weakness in the present sit
uation,' said S. Davies Warfeld,
president of the association, is lack
of coordination between the two gov
ernmental bodies that deal with the
railroads; one adjusts rates and the
other wages. There should be coor-
Gination between the interstate COM
merce commission, the rate making
body, and the United States railroad
labor board at Chicago. One govern
ment body sitting in Washington can
not be expected to successfully ad-
just rates and fares to meet the ex-
renses incident to railroad operation
while another sitting in Chicago at
tempts to adjust wages, the largest
and most important of an railway
operating expenditures, which can
only be met by rates the commission
alone is required to establish"
