NO FURTHER MOVE
BY GOVERNMENT NOW
For Settlement Railway Strike, Await
Outcome of Special Con-
ferences.

Chicago, july "a (By the Associated
Press).- With government officials
maintaining silence ! in regard to the
railway strike, except for the an
nouncement Of Ben w. Hooper, chair
man, that the railroad labor board
would make no further move at pres
ent, interest to-day turned to separate
peace efforts of railroads and strikers.
Officials of the Baltimore and Ohio rail
road had meeting at Baltimore with
representatives of the striking shopmen
and despite the failure last week Of
similar efforts made at st. Paul made
by northwestern roads, it was conf
IDENTIFY predicted that the Baltimore
conference would obtain favorable re-
suits.
Should the meeting result in an adj
justment, il was expected other rail-
roads would follow the same course. B..
M Jewell, head Of the shopmens un-
ion, refused to comment on the Balti-
more parley, but previously had me-
knowledged receiving offers Of settle
ment from number Of roads.
The silence of federal officers was I'M
terpreted as meaning that President
Harding was inclined to let the situa-
tion drift for few days, while he re-
ceiyed the report of Secretary Of Labor
Davis and further inquired into facts.
The conference Friday by members
Of the Senate interstate commerce COM
mittee and eastern rail chiefs. the con
ference between Chairman Hooper and
Secretary Davis meeting at Mooseheart
with strike leaders, a member of the
labor board, and commissioner of con
riliation of the department Of labor,
seemed to strengthen the belief that
! definite plan was being made.

DEFENDS CARAVAN.
SEN. Underwood Also Defends Cherni-
cal Foundation.

Washington, D. c., July 24.-The
Chemical foundation and its president
Francis p. Garvan. former alien prop
ertv custodian, who are being pro.
ceeded against by the government fol
the return of German chemical patents
were defended in the Senate to-day by
Senator Underwood of Alabama, Dem
ocratic leader, who criticized President
Harding and the administration for the
action taken against them.
Denying that there was fraud, collu-
sion or conspiracy in the acquisition
of the German patents by the Chemi-
cal foundation. Senator Underwood
also commended the record of A. Mitch
ell Palmer, former attorney general and
former property custodian, in dealing
with enemy alien property. German in
terests. Senator Underwood said, we're
supporting the administrators course
against the Chemical foundation in
the hope, he said, of securing restitu-
tion of property and also damage
claims for its use.
Quoting from Mr. Palmer's report on
enemy alien property, Senator Under
wood said that the s250.oo0 paid by
the Chemical foundation in securing
rights TO the 5000 German chemical
patents was adequate when the gov
ernment's right to use the patents was
considered.
This report said Mr.. Underwood.
"effectually disposes Of the charge that
there was a fraudulent conspiracy on
the part of those in the alien property
custodian's Office who erected the
Chemical foundation and sold these
patents to IL. The charge has been re.
peatedly made that Mr.. Garvan. as
alien property custodian. sold these
patents TO himself as president Of the
Chemical foundation. The entire plan
was devised and perfected before Mr..
Garvan became alien property cussb-
dian or had any thought Of being ap-
pointed to that office-the entire plan
was devised and perfected while Mr..
Palmer was alien property custodian
senator Underwood continued: Now
President Harding has directed the
present alien property custodian TO le
mand a return Of these patents from
the Chemical foundation TO the gov
eminent The president has committed
himself 20 the doctrine that This sale
Vas a violation Of = trust. This j. a
