1--WE favor the merger of these
two companies by a Congressional
charter to q new company of suf-

the combined capital of the two ex-
isting companies, on terms which
will be equitable to the stockhold-
ers of both companies, economical

We recommend and urge that all

This action. made public yester-
day, was taken by the chamber at

From the standpoint of a tariff

Unless PresiaenI Harding insists
on Immediate action ON. the rail-
road bill the Senate. according to
a program formulated yesterday,
will take 2 vacation. OF a month
or more beginning Saturday.
When President Harding returns
to the White House today after his
New England trip. Senator Lodge
and other Senate leaders will call
on him and inquire as to his wishes
about the railroad bill
' Wants BnI Passed.
Tho President has indicated a
keen desire for passage OF the rail-
road bill at an early date He has
also urged Congress to take a recess
as n means Of permitting, the
Finance Committee to work out the
tax and tariff legislation undis-
turbed.
To attempt to pass the railroad
bill now would virtually end all
prospect of a recess. At the same
time. Senate leaders are doubtful
whether they can keep a qusrtsn
on hand to transact business dur
ing the next month even II an ef-
fort Is made to bring up the rail-
road bill.

After the passage Of the anti
beer bill yesterday, the Senate voted
to take up the Capper-Tincher bill
to regulate grain exchanges and to
give II the right-of-way over all
other legislation 1t Is expected
that several days will be required
to bring it to a vote. As soon as
II is out of the way the Senate
plans to take up the Kenyon bill
to give agriculture more repre-
sentation on the Federal Reserve
Board.
The program. unless it is upset
by President Harding. then calls for
series Of three-day recesses with

act no business until the new tax
bill is received from the House.
