the conference after consultation with
Senator Hitchcock. ranking demo-

committee.
Senator Hitchcock, who returned
here today and who was not present
when the treaties were reported by
the committee last week, expressed
himself as favoring ratification. Sena-
tor Underwood also was said to be a
supporter of the treaties. Preliminary
surveys were reported as showing
only a comparatively small number
of democratic senators opposed to the
treaties and tomorrow's conference is
expected to reveal almost the exact
number. Republican leaders said they
expected to lose only two or three
republican votes and that the treaties
were certain of ratification unless the
democrats should make party issue
of ratification and vote almost solidly
in opposition.

CONFERENCE WILL
REVEAL THEFACTS
Agreement on Industrial Sit.
uation Expected by the
Assemblage.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

The usual skepticism that attends
every endeavor. of an experimental
nature enveloped the unemployment
suits. the query on most everybody's
lips was this: What can the con-
ference really do. can it furnish work
for the unemployed, can it alter the
laws of supply and demand, can it
bring normaicy?"
Inquiry at the White House de-
velops the fact that President Hard
ing in acceding to the suggestion of
Secretary Hoover that a conference
of the unemployed be called did not
himself know exactly what might be
achieved. II. indeed. he knew a rem
, ing of economists, but would have ap-
piled that remedy without delay. He
had confidence. however. in the en-
gineering mind of Herbert Hoover
and he believed that many of the
fundamental causes of unemployment
| might be removed If everybody were
agreed as to what those causes are.
Survey of Industrial Situation.
If nothing else comes out of the
J agreement as to what are the facts
of Americas industrial situation,
officials will be more than glad. For
| 1t is true that some businesses have
been retrenching purely because
other businesses have done so.
Pessimistic talk has bred timidity.
Psychological factors have had more
to do with the industrial depression
than anything else. Fear that the
European market would not yield
orders because of a diminution of its
purchasing power has caused
abandonment of plans at time
when the business men of other
countries were just beginning to lay
plans for long siege of new
markets.
What the unemployment conference
probably will give the people OF
America is an economic survey of
the United States. Without facts
and downs of business conditions are
mostly conjecture. Surface con-
ditions are not always an index of
what is going on. President Harding
said so himself in his opening ad-
i dress to the conference when he
remarked:
Frankly. it is difficult to know
whether we have reached that bed
rock to which reaction runs before
! the upward course begins, but here
are representatives of the forces
which make for all we are or ever
can be, and your soundings ought to
be reliable"
The President saw before him the
representatives of labor and employer
groups. captains of industry as well
as students of economics. An agree
ment by them as to what constitutes
| the true condition of the United
States will go a long way toward
carrying conviction with the people
of the country
President Replies to Critics,
Incidentally Mr. Harding took
fling in his opening address at two
currents of thought advanced by folks
who have been more or less opposed
to administration policies. He sound
ed warning against the idea of look
ing to the government treasury for
relief, and he took issue with those

Coincident with the convening of
the unemployment conference. Ur-
balm Ledoux, who has been conduct
ing a campaign for relief of the un-
employed in Boston and New York,
arrived in Washington and an"
nounced he would attend the con-
ference as an observer.
"The purpose of my visit to Wash
ington," Mr.. Ledoux said. "is to ap-
peal to the President to publish the
names of those who profited to the
extent of more than 100 per cent dur
ing the war, that they may share SO
per cent with the unemployed, who
have not profited at all, and that this
SO per cent be used under govern
ment supervision for work OF con-
structive welfare. r
VIII Insist on Publication.
Il will constantly insist that this
list be published, SO that the search
light of public opinion may be
focused upon 1t, with the expectation
that ultimately the hearts of these
people may be melted and that they
will voluntarily contribute 80 per
cent to social reconstruction In the
aftermath of war.
IT will sit on the doorsteps of the
White. House. Rain or shine I will
remain at the Presidents thresh-
hold and patiently wait for publ.

PENNSY DECLINES
TO REOPEN CASE
Denies Right of Rail Board
to Enter Realm of
Management.
BY the Associa ted Press,


CHICAGO, September 26.-Repre-
sentatives of the Pennsylvania rail-
road presented a letter to the United
States Railroad Board today denying
the right of the board to ENTER the
realm of management" and stating
that "in view of the fact it could not
discuss any of the three points the
board allowed it to discuss" it would
not present oral argument. The board
accepted the letter and announced it
would give decision at later date.
The action leaves the decision of
the board calling for new election
of members of shop craft committee
to arrange rules and working condi-
tions still in force, but with the rail-
road company denying the right of
the board to make such an order. or
to enter into any other phase of diff
ferences between the carriers and the
men except the hearing of and the ad-
judication Of disputes.
Issues of LAW and Fact.
The Pennsylvania. in it's application
for a hearing, asked that the board
hear it upon the issues of law and
fact as to the right of the board to
make rulings upon elections. The re-
ply Of the board allowed the company
ployes not in the active service of the
carrier. such as men laid off, fur
loughed OF absent on leave, shall par
ticipate in the election of committees,
and how the representative capacity
of spokesmen of unorganized employ
es shaa be ascertained." The carrier
also was permitted to offer evidence
of the adoption or ratifica ton of it's
shop craft rules by representatives
of the crafts. fairly elected by a ma
jority of that class.

destination two Of the trio hit Shea
and Lewis with pieces of lead
pipe done up in newspapers. Lewis
fell unconscious, the satchel of
money beneath him. Shea pulled
his pistol and fired all six shots.
The three robbers also pulled
pistols and two of them emptied
the guns. The others pistol stuck.
The robbers took flight because
of Shea's shooting.
Shea grabbed Malloy and sub
dued him by beating him on the
head with his empty revolver. The
other men escaped by running
downstairs, eluding a police cor
don which surrounded the station
as soon as word was received of
the hold-up. A pool of blood at
the door to the stairs indicated
that one Of the fleeing robbers had
been shot.
Shea was taken to a hospital.

SENATE TAKES Up
TAX REVISION BILL.
Clash Occurs After Objection
Forces Reading of
Whole Bill.

Consideration of the tax revision bill
was begun in the Senate today on the
suggestion of Senator Penrose, chair
man of the finance committee.
Senator Penrose asked unanimous
consent to waive the first formal read
ing of the bill, SO that the amend
ments might be read for consideration
without further delay. To this re-
quest. however, Senator Simmons
ranking democrat of the finance COM
mittee, objected, forcing a reading OF
the entire bill.
Senator Penrose criticised the demo-
Gratis for alleged attempt to delay
the revenue bill, which drew a sharp
retort from Senator Simmons. who
said that the tactics adopted by the
Pennsylvania senator were likely to
cause delay rather than to expedite
the passage of the bill.
10000 Copies to BE Printed.
The Senate adopted a resolution of
fcred by Senator Smoot of Utah, au-
thorizing the printing of the tax re-
vision bill as Senate document, 49,
900 copies to be printed.
Describing the republican tax re-
vision bill as "a miserable, make
shift arrangement" Senator Simmons
said today he was considering the
question VI pToposiH6 dH entirely new
measure contemplating a peace-time
taxation policy.
He added that the bill now before
the Senate was simply a patchwork
made out of the 1918 revenue act
which was designed solely as a war
measure.
Not Decided to Have Caucus.
Senator Simmons said it was not de-
cided to have caucus of democratic
senators to pass on the minority re-
= port, as the question was not a po-
Iitical one. Democratic members OF
the committee will draft the report
but Senator Simmons was unable to
s.ay when it would; be ready for the
