clearing of the railroad situation gen.
orally. came here Saturday from v
eral quarters.
A group OF prominent railroad exc
cutives- conferred Saturday with Presi-
dent Harding and Senator Cummins,
Republican. Iowa chairman of the SEN
ate interstate m committee
and took steps toward freight rate re-
auctions preliminary to the executives
meeting at Chicago on October IA
Rate reductions also was the prIn-
cipal topic on the program at a meet
Ing Saturday Of Democratic and Re
publican senators comprising the I'M
official agriculture "bloc''. Senators
attending the meeting said there was a
wide and vigorous demand for rate
cuts. as imperative. to the agriculture
interests. Senator Cummins. after his
conference with the railway execu-
tives said he believed they would adopt
at their Chicago meeting his sugges-
freight rates. no definite assurances to
ton for an immediate reduction of the
this effect we're given him Mt Satur-
days conference, he explained. but he
expressed the opinion that he reduc-
tons would be made by the carriers
voluntarily.
The carriers then. Senator Cummins
said. probably would ask the railroad
labor board To reduce wages or appeal
to congress for legislation to meet the
situation caused by the voluntary rate
reductions.
Tie railway executives In the con-
ference included r. Dewitt Cuyler
representing a railway secur.ues hold
ers organization; Samuel Rea. presl-
dent Of the Pennsylvania system
President Smith of the New York
Central: President Holden. Of the Bur
lington system, and julius Kruttschnitt
chairman OF the Southern Pacific.
The railway executives" said Sena-
tor Cummins after the conference, feel
that the only substantial way to reduce
rates is to reduce wages. They also
feel that the wage fixing functions Of
the railroad labor board should be
transferred to the interstate commerce
commission which has the rate max
ing or return power"
Senator Cummins said he did not
gather that the railway executives
favored complete Establishment of the
labor board, hut believed that the same
federaf heFity-wAich-estahlish
rates or returns, should also
have power TO establish wages. This
would require amendment by congress
of the transportation act and may be
brought up later, after the Chicago
conference.
The railway executives at Chicago,
tAS &p444t tor said he understood would
call In representatives Of agriculture,
shippers, commercial and other organl-
cations. to discuss the rate OF wage
questions. The carriers. he said. would
probably seek the support OF these In
terests In the event they should agree
to reduce freight rates voluntarily and
appeal to the labor board for wage re-
1%uctIons and to the Interstate state
commission for rate adjustments.

TAKES THE BOY TO BE
 THE REAL WISE GUY

Verify, in this day and gen. eration the father raiseth his son on the streets and side walks. He layeth around the soda founts and imbibeth slop and hookworm. He groweth in knowlege of nothing save ciga- ietes and cuss words.
 When he attains the age of sixteen he aequireth suit of clothes turned up at the bot Z. tom two furlongs above his feet. He displayeth a pair of noisy socks with purple back ground and violets to the front. He weareth low cut tan shoes also a green tie. He looketh like banana on the streets of Cairo.
 The inside of his head re- sembleth the inside of pump kin. He falleth in love with a spindle-shaken girl with pink ribbons in her hair and the clo- thes of Eve, he craveth for an automobile that he may ride her forth in the springtime. He scattereth his pin money like a cyclone scattereth a rail fen ce. He sitteth up at night to write poetry and giveth no thot to the multiplication table His mind turneth to the vani- tie of life and not upon the high cost of corn bread.
 Verify, verify, he needeth a good board applied vigorously to the south west corner of his anatomy.
 He thlnketh his father a plodder and his mother a back number. He nightly pictureth t3 himself very great riches sud- denly acquired. He dreameth of steam yachts and a private car.
 Yea, he thinketh himself the real stuff. He butteth in where he is not wanted and criticiseth his elders. He purchaseth che ap perfume and smelleth loud- CT than a billy goat.
 When he groweth up he get teth a job as clerk in a store at $1 a day and swipeth extra change from the boss until he is caught.-EXchange
