 It is expected, preliminary confer ences will be held by each group in the endeavor to formulate programs for consideration by the general ses- sions. The general strike committees of the union ordinarily consist of 8 representative of each craft in each railroad system where the strike is in effect.
 It was understood that Secretary Hoover might attend the railway exec utives' session at New York, repre- senting the administration, and there was a possibility that Secretary Davis might attend the union gathering. MT. Davis left tonight for Mooseheart, III,
 Apparently the presidents proposal will go before the railway employees with the recommendations of their in ternational union officials favoriug acceptance. It appeared improbable that the railroad executives would have the same favorable recommends tion for their spokesman, whom the president has seen.
 Although the leadership was under stood to be willing to recommend call ing off the strike on a basis which would still leave their members work ing at the wage reductions which caused the strike, the seniority issue, which has been raised since the walk out has been growing more formid- able each day. aRilroads which have been more or less successful in build ing up new shop working forces, have indicated increasingly strenuous objec- tions to proposals that any of the new men be displaced by returning strfk- CTS. A number of lines, however, in- cluding most of those in the southeast and northwest sections of the country have indicated their willingness to take back all of their men in the ex- act positions which they held at the time of striking. The union officials, on the other hand, appeared to be dis posed to resist any settlement on these roads that will take the settle ment and leave their members still out on the systems which are making the efforts to build up a new force.

 While rail executives and union leaders showed no open inclination to recede from their positions on senior ity, it was generally concealed that wages and working rules disputes two of the strike issues would be set tied by the labor board while the con tracting out of shop work-the third issue on which the shopmen struck has, according to the labor board, has already been adjusted on practically all roads.
 There was considerable speculation on both sides as to what disposition would be made of the unions request for national adjustment boards to de eide disputes. Regional adjustment boards have been suggested in labor board circles as a compromise. s
 Separate agreements between the strikers and the individual railroads the other plan to end the walkout which has been most considered since the announcement several days

 No statements were issued today from the railroad executives ana none were forthcoming from strike head quarters.
 Disorders in connection fifth the strike became more pronounced to- day Denison, Tex, was placed under martial law, while in various sections, clashes between workers and strike sympathizers were reported.
 Court action against the strikers continued. The Western Pacific rail road obtained a restraing order at San Francisco and similar action was ob- tained by the American Refrigerator Transit company at St. Louis.
