ton legislation. When this has been
suggested. labor has started an up
roar that has resulted in the shelv-
ing OF the measures.
Congress. however. with the pres
ent situation as an index. Is deter
mined to find some means by which
the decisions OF the labor board can
be made to command respect and
obedience.
As an additional means OF reliev-
ing the present railroad crisis sew
eral other important measures are
expected TO pass at this and the fol-
lowing session OF Congress.
Chief among these Is bill 20
compel consolidation OF the railroads
into IS or 20 great systems in order
to eliminate competitive loss and ef-
feet economies which will make pos
sibie greater rate cuts. The !. O.. C.
Is now endeavoring to bring this
about and has prepared detailed
plan by which 1t can be accom-
plished.
Another feature OF the general
plan is the contemplated repeal OF
the Adamson eight hour law. This
would be certain to raise a storm.
However. several farm organizations
have interested themselves and it is
probable that a friendly Senator may
offer a bill for the repeal OF the
law In a short time.
Hearings on the Capper bill to re-
peal the six per cent guarantee OF
