 3-Assertions by l.. F. Loree. pres!- dent of rhe Delaware and Hudson and chairman of the eastern presidents conferenee. that predictions of a strike settlement and peace in the industry were all bunk"
 4-The announcement that several oi the brotherhood chiefs are en route from the west wtth practical proposals for settlement of the shop crafts s.rike which they will submit to rail execu- tives if all other peace advances fail. Heads of the association of executives refused to comment on the unexpected arrival of the three eastern presidents
 Their return on the same boat, and in the midst of the present crisis. was admittedly significant. however espec- ially since their ,respeetive vice presi dents have been the nucleus of tn, group which. in conference of the na. tional association, has consistently fought any peace plan which included reinstatement of strikers with seniority rights unimpaired.
