WASHINGTON. July 22-President
Harding spent eight hours today In
close study OF the railroad strike
situation. but when his activities
were concluded there was not the
slightest intimation concerning con-
illusions reached or possible course

dents chief informant for four hours.

conferences all tho usual White

Legislation Not Discunned.
Mr.. Hooper LEFT the session after

night returned to Chicago. He gave

made by the Labor Board since the
shop craftsmen walked out July /,

the executives OF the railroads with
whom the board has dealt. This was
supplemented by tho three Republi-
can Senator'S. who Themselves went
over Issues In the controversy with
heads OF Eastern railroads in a meet
ing In Washington this week.
There was no discussion concerning
tho enactment OF legislation, sena-
torial participants insisted. and Presl-
dent Harding was represented as be-
ueving that new law would be un-
necessary and unhelpful for the mo.
ment. The question OF seniority
rights was again held TO bs ths
chief stumbling block to the return
or the men now out, railroad execu-
tives largely insisting that strikers
had lost their relative service POSI-

the union leaders contending that
employees taken on in their places
should be dismissed.
Participants silent.
suggestions that the President in.
tended to take action In tho rail-
