craU of Nevada, who signed the minor.
ity report on the bill with Senator La.
Toilette, expressed the belief that the
analysis of the measure as set forth In
their report would have considerable
effect on the action finally taken by
the Senate.
These antis declare that President
Harding was "misipformed" concern
ing the terms Of the Federal Control
and Transportation Acts in asserting
to Congress that the United States
was legally and morally bound to fund
the indebtedness Of the railroads.
They are building their opposition to
the bill largely on the statement of
William G.. McAdoo,' Secretary of the
Treasury and Director General OF Rail
roads during the Wilson Administra-
ton. The minority of the committee
estimates that the claims to be filed
against the Government by the rail-
roads will aggregate $3.50. 000.0 900.
One of the principal objections to be
raised to the bill Ia the possibility that
the use of funds by the War Finance
Corporation to aid the railroads will
hamper the loaning of money for the
expectation Of agriculture products. as
provided in the bill signed by the
President last night.
