J. S. CHAMBER IF
 COMMERCE SAYS RA|LEXPENSES
 NEED REDUCTION

WASHINGTON. May 22. - Rail- roads must make sharp reductions in operating expenses if their credit and financial sta sbility are to be re-estab- Gshed. committee of the chamber of commerce of the United States de- clared tonight in statement follow ing a survey.
 Strict economy was urged, the committee pointing out that read progress in all other industries, and it is to be assumed that railroad wages will in the future. as they have in the past, bear an equitable rela- tionship to wages paid in other ac- tivities.''
 The committee was of the opinion that the grouping or consolidation of railroads must ultimately be accom- lished It also declared federal incorporation of railroads was high ly deSira ble
 No additional legislation was, how ever. needed, the statement said, as it was advisable to have further ex- perience with the transportation act.
 The committee stated it had come to the conclusion that even with in- creased traffic that will come with the gradual return or business pros perity the business of railroad trans portation cannot be restored to a profitable basis until the present high operating expenses are cut Stressing the need for more eco- homie methods of operation. the com mittee said the first step toward the accomplishment of economies should be greater cooperation among the carriers.
 There inevitably must be a reduc- tion in the percentage which salaries and wages comprise of the total oper- ating revenue" it stated.
 "The committee assumes that every effort will be made by the car riers to maintain equitable scales of wages for different classes of em- ployment"

 The meeting was called to hear a report of a committee which had been in conference with Secretary Davis at Washington, and us result of which it was reported, a possible basis of settlement had been reached. The proposals were reported to in volve acceptance by the men of a reduction in wages and the granting of concessions as to overtime.
 T. B. Healy and B. l.. Todd, rep resentatives of the union, declared no vote was taken. They added none was necessary as the discussion showed the men were unanimous in their declaration to stand by their original proposition.
 Secretary Davis arrived today and conferred with w. l.. Marvin, gem eral manager, and II. H. Raymond, president of the American Steam ship Owners associa tion.
