ytctory For Harding

Washington Atg 4.-'Thc govern
ment considers that one Of the most i'm
portant things sought IN the rail strike
situation, the recognition Of both the
railroad arrangements and the leaders
OF striking shon crafts unions OF the
Supremacy "C the Railroad Labor hoard
has been attained by President Hard
ing's recent peace proposals. II was SAID
today by a White House spokesman fol-
lowing cabinet meeting given over eS-
clusivclv 10 a discussion Of the INDUS
trial situation.
The attemp, OF the President to set
tie the strike ny obtaining an agreed
formula for dealing with seniority
rights of strikers in case the strike was
called of, was declared 20 be merely
one OF the informal attempts at media
ton In a controversy between employer
anad employees. the fate OF which was
secondary when compared with the COM
pelllng necessity Of getting the Rail-
road Labor Board properly fixed as the
supreme power in the transportation
world.
