Men of union labor affiliation who

Railroad Administration were en-
tirely responsible for the fnal nego-
tiations of the so-called national

T. Whittier. of Philadelphia, chairman
OF the conference committee of rail-
road managers, today told the Senate
Interstate Committee when II re-
sumed it's investigation of the coun-
try's railroad problem after q wesk's

Whittier backed up his statement by
calling attention to testimony to the
same effect given before the rail-
road labor board at Chicago by Frank
McNanamy. former assistant director
of the division of operations Of the
Railroad Administration.
The final negotiations, whittier de-
olared, really amounted to a session
Of labor representatives working out
a schedule satisfactory to themselves.

tory to the railroad officers who rep
resented the Government and who
had previously disagreed on about
half of the rules suggested"

which represented Director General

sisted OF McMansmy, J. A. Franklin.
assistant director of the division of
labor of the railroad administration;
George N. Deguire. assistant to Nc
Msnamy; and George f. Daugherty.
assistant general supervisor of equip
ment OF the railroad administration.
Whittier also stated that the labor
boards record showed that none of
these men had held responsible posi-
tions in railroad management.
There are indications that the rail-
road shop crafts will seek to perpetu-
ate the principles OF these national
agreements in their new negotiations
with the roads" Whittier said. but
the executives must resist all at
tempts OF this kind in fairness to
themselves and to the public"

comparison.
Instead of the usual engine and pro-
peller, Captain Collins new machine
will be propelled by the exhaust of q
highly explosive substance, dis
charged from the tail through q
nozzle. Turncocks and other devices
will enable the speed of the machine
to be controlled exactly like an aero
plane of the usual type.

aIlocution delivered yesterday in
connection with the creation OF
three new Italian cardinals, ex-
presses deep anxiety over the situa-

consideration the mandate TO Eng

are taking advantage of the suffer

an investigation of the conditions of
violence and strife that have taken
place there in the last few months,
according to a telegram today from
Harry Olmsted, chairman of the
operators labor committee, to SEN

The operators will cooperate fully
in the investigation, he sIad. The
telegram was as follows:

yesterday from c. F. Keeney, presi-
dent of District II. United Mine
Workers:
strong opposition has developed IN
the United States Senate to the pas
sage of the Johnson resolution call
ing for a Senatorial investigation of
the Mingo county industrial situation.
Press reports quote you as saying that
the membership of the Williamson
Coal Operators Association is favor
able to such an inquiry. You are also
quoted as saying that the United
Mine Workers are obstructing the
passage of this resolution.
1--WE have reliable information that
yourself and associates have an ar
rangement with certain public men to
prevent the adoption OF the resolu-
tion, and that you are seeking to
place the blame for its delay upon the
United Mine Workers.
ain order to place our respective
attitudes fairly before the public will

forming a delegation to visit the city
Of Washington, and there urge the
Immediate passage OF the resolution"
"The statement that my associates
or myself have an arrangement with
certain public men to prevent the
adoption of the johnson resolution
is utterly false. and Mr.. Keeney will
have difficulty in fixing responsible
Ity for any such utterance on any
reliable person.
THE truth Is that our representa-
tives have been steadily on the
ground In Washington, urging the
passage of the resolution, and look
for favorable results.
we intend not to deviste from
our established policy OF refusing to
deal with the United Mine Workers.
