DELAY STATEMENT
Heads of Eastern Roads
Indicate Opposition to
Harding Plan.
HOSTILE PUBLIC
OPINION FEARED
Request Means Surrender
Of Position Stated Last
Week, Says Loree.

NEW YORK. Aug. 7.-President
Harding's new proposal for sub
hitting the seniority question In
VOWED in the railroad strike to the
Railroad Labor Board appears like
ly to be rejected by the executives
at least by the ''bitter-enders'' of
the Eastern group.
Certainly the hrst reaction Of
the railroad presidents here was
unfavorable. although the fear of
arousing hostile public sentiment
by two successive reflections of
Presidents Harding's plans for end
ing the strike is undoubtedly max
ing the executives extremely eau
tious.
Called Into Conferences.
This was plainly evident in the
conference of a number of Eastern
executives which was called here
after the new proposal had been
received from Washington. L. F.
Loree. of the Delaware and Hud-
son. president Of the Eastern presi-
dents conferenoe. summoned all
executives he could reach to meet
at his ONCE late in the afternoon.
Among those present were w. w.
Atterbury. operating vice president
Of the Pennsylvania system. and
Daniel willard, of the Baltimore
and Ohio. Atterbury and Loree
represent the most determined OF
the "bitter-enders' group which
! favors no compromise and fight
to the end.
But contrary to their usual Gus
tom. the executives issued no for
NAL statement. No decisions were
made at the conferenc. IT was said
The questions involved were merely
discussed and various opinions
heard.
Sees Surrender Demand.
After the conference. however
Loree issued a statement. which he
emphasized was his own personal
view. declaring that President
Harding's request that the strikers
be taken back to work and the
seniority question be referred tc
the Railroad Labor Board demands
a complete surrender Of the posi-
ton of the railroad presidents a.
stated last Tuesday"
Last Tuesday the executives re-
jected the proposal to give their ole
employees their seniority rate, de-
a. A.
violation of pledges made to the mer
now at work. From this position
there could be no deviation, the ex
ecutives decided at the meeting 6
week ago.
Fear Public Opinion.
But much as the executives want
to adhere to this position, they are
somewhat doubtful about the wisdom
of assuming responsibility for twic,
blocking peace. The Loree state
ment was construed here as a feelel
to sound out public opinion so tha
the executives could determine
whether the country would permi
another rejection.
Executives realize that the longel
the strike CONTINUES, the more rest
less the public is apt to become
They do not want to be jockeye,
into a position where they must as
sumo responsibility for prolongint
the strike
Indicating that the railroads arr
continuing their efforts to build VI
working forces, the Eastern road
put on 65.s40 new shopmen during
the week ending last Friday. There
are now l03.506 shopmen employed
on the Eastern roads. 64.7 per cent
of normal according to official rail
road figures.

MOLINE CHAMBER
TO DROP SOCIAL
FEATURES, PLAN

With the expiration of its lease
on the upper floors of the Leedy
building Dec. 20, the Moline Cham
Der of Commerce will become a
strictly business organization, sans
the social features. Offices will be
maintained, probably in the new
hotel, where the several business
departments of the chamber will be
carried on. Members of the board
of directors, however, have
pledged their individual support in
the formation of a social club for
the membership. Should such club
be organized it will be conducted
apart from the Chamber of Com
merce. Sentiment of the member
ship will be sounded at a mass
meeting to be held April 26. At
that time will be determined what
policy to pursue with respect to So
cial activities. In a QUESTIONABLE
mailed to members, three plans are
suggested, as follows:
/. The dropping of social activi-
ties and the substitution of a strict
" business chamber, with yearly
fee of $25. The fee is now S36 4
year
2. The organization of a social
club similar to the old Moline club,
with a membership fee of $25 i
year.
3. The organization of both a
chamber and club.
The principal reason for the pro-
posed change as given by the di-
rectors is that the new hotel when
completed will provide all of the
social features which the club is
now maintaining.

Fashion NeaDsI
Notes by Wire
to The Argus

Paris, April 20.-For afternoon
parties the fayorite costume is a
silk dress with a cape to match. A
gray crepe de chine gown. for ex-
ample. will have a gray crepe de
chine cape, unlined and with mere
armholes so that it may easily be
slid on or off. The new capes are
without trimming and therefore
the decorative impulse is obliged
to burst forth IN the hat. The gray
crepe de chine had lacquerred
hat of taffeta. For brown frocks,
there are superb gold crinoline
hats: with pale lavender, hats of
petunia silk heavily wreathed with
sweet peas in shades of purple are
worn.
London, April 20. - Wearied a
trifle by the dazzling colors of early
spring the mode now is for rather
sombre shades. Gray, more or less,
black and navy predominant at
present. These shades, however,
are not permitted to be unrelieved;
there are bright sQlashes of coler
in coral, geranium and royal blue
rosettes. For summer the coolest
looking and most chic frocks VIII
be made of dark gray taffeta al
paca, or wolfe with perhaps note
of color in the girdle and simpler
lingerie collars. Some times a lace
fischu is used.
Pinehurst, April 20.-A simple
but brilliant little knock-about
frock was worn here by a young
girl. The frock was of navy serge.
built on straight and simple lines
with the slightest blouse to the
long-waisted bodice. The bateau
neck, three-quarter length sleeves
and waistline were outlined with
canary colored jersey cloth on
which soutache braid was sewed.
A two-inch wide band of the canary
extended from neck to hem down
the front and was peppered with
tiny blue crystal buttons.
