MAY ASK
PEOPLE TO BACK
RAALABOR BOARD
President t Is Confident
Nation Will B ALLY in
Support of Decision.

President Harding Is confident the
American people will rally to the
support OF the Railway Labor Board
IL the railroad brotherhoods, persist
in striking In defiance Of that body.
1t is not. unlikely. It transpIres.
that the President will address an
appeal to the people to uphold the
authority OF the new agency designed
to put an end to the arrangement
Of transportation by strikes.
The Railway Labor Board lacks
authority under the transportation act
to enforce its decisions. but Con-
gress entertained the hope that the
force Of public opinion would be sqf-
ficient to deter a union from strik-
ing in defiance Of a settlement pro-
claimed by the board after a full
and fair investigation Of the merits
of the dispute. II the impending
strike should prove a failure because
of public condemnation, the result
would GO far toward establishing Ihe
authority Of the board and prevent
ing future strikes against its deci-
sions.
Senator Cummins discussed the sit
uation with the President Saturday
night.
Il do not see that the situation
is changed in any important re-
spect," said the Senator last night,
but I still think there will be no
strike. II the men do go out, the
government, of course. will deal Wig
orously with the situation In the
interest of the whole people"
q That President Harding and the
Interstate Commerce Commission afe
now in accord on the, question of
rate reductions Is the significant con-
clusion drawn from the decision of
the Commission in declaring rates
on grain, grain products and hay
between points In the Western and
mountain-Pacific groups to be un-
reasonable.
Grain Decisien Cuts Revenue.
The Importance of the grain rate
decision, which, 1t is unofficially es-
timated,S may reduce the revenues
Of the railroads s3s. 900, 600, to $780,
100000 annually, lies in .he fact
that the commission therein sup-
scribes whole-heartedly to the
Harding view on railway rates and
operating costs. -
In his address to the Congress
kAprtl 12, President Harding de-
clared; ,r
No improvement win be peYrna-
nent until the railways are oper-
ated efficiently at q cost within
that which the traffic can bear.
IF we can have 1t Understood
that Congress has no sanction for

Prime Minister Lloyd George de-
manded that the Irish define at once
their position on this point II had

avoid this critical question until the
end of the conference.
The Irish delegates in London
argue that De Valera's telegram to

to give attention to the growing
impatience among the Unionists
over the Irish negotiations.
