corners in any Of the rooms. The owners room

is Of creamy pink stucco, concrete. The
exterior trim is of a grayish apple green, the

SETTLEMENT OF SHOPmEh
STRIKE is STILL FAR
DISTANT.
RAIL MEN HOLD FIRM
RAILROAD EXECUTIVES DISCUSS
PEACE WITH SENATE CON-
MlTTEE.

Wnshington.-An effort to settle the
railroad strike ut n suddenly-arranged
conference of heads of leading rail-
roads and members of the Senate in
terstate commerce committee here
failed
Those attending the conference said
It now appeared that a strike settle
ment was much more distant and ex-
pressed pessImism over the immediate
outlook, viewing the coal and railroad
strike together.
The conference was attended by
Senator Cummins and Senators Wat
son of Indiana and Kellogg Of Mime
sofa members Of the Senate Interstate
commerce committee.
The principal points in dispute be-
tween the executives, who were called
here more or less secretly, and the
union was gone over in detail ut the
conference, together with the POSSIBLE
ity Of legislation to meet the situation.
1t was said that no legislation was
practicable to deal with the present
strike
The rail executives, 1t was stated,
were insistent upon three points which
the unions are demanding as a reces-
sion to send the men back to work.
These are the seniority rule, the
restoration of the pension status and
the question of boards of adjustment
between the employees and employers.
Earnest efforts were said TO have
been made by the senators present to
secure modification of the railway ex-
ecutiveS position. 1t was said that
the possible menace to the public from
the railway strike, combined with the
coal strike. was stressed by the SEN
ators, but the attitude of the railway
executives on the three main points
regarded as necessary precedence to
the return of the men to work was
said 10 be unyielding.
No further conference. in Washing
ton We're planned, it was said. Some
Of the conferees said il was apparent
that such efforts would be fruitless.
Persons well Informed said that Presi-
dent Harding did not contemplate call
ing the executives into conference
himself, and that apparently any furth-
er moves must come through the rail-
road labor board, the railroad execu
tives or the union representatives.
