NEW YORK, Aug. s.-The con.

dents which will meet In this city

ing's latest proposal for ending he
rail shopmens strike II expected to
develop into a sharp, swift fight be.
tween the hard shells" and the

II Ia believed that the hard
shells" will lose, but not before
gaining certain concessions from
their softer brethren that will pre-.
vent the former from losing face"
before their workmen am among
themselves.
The conference should not be q
protracted one.
Before nightfall, 1t is thought, q
plan will be agreed upon by which
the executives will consent to the
Harding plan, but with certain reser-
vations regarding the continuance at
work OF the men who have taken the
places of the striking shopmen.
Public opinion-that Damoclean
sword that hangs over executives
and strikers alike-wili be the
weapon that will pull the trick"
These statements are based upon
current belief expressed by rail Of
ficials who have discussed Fridays 8

There IL the possibility, Of course.
that these officials may be wrong.
The hard Shells" mentioned
above, are those executives who be.
long to the older school OF economic
thought. Several generations ago
they might have subscribed to the
doctrine Of "the divine right of capi.
tai" Today they speak less, and
more cautiously, but nevertheless
they have their thoughts regarding
the relationship OF capital and labor
and those thoughts are not Of the
progressive school.

Glass Put in Dough
Of Baker By His
Son, Aged 8.

DETROIT, Aug. 9.-Peter
Tomff, nine years old, whose
father, Eli, is a baker, yester-
day confessed TO Charles w.
Seymour, chief of police, that
he had dumped glass and nails
into pans Of dough in ais faith
er's bakery. He admitted he
had been doing it for three
weeks past.
Peter made the confession
after he. had been soundiy
whipped by his father when
caught dropping glass in a pan
Sunday. The whipping drew
from Peter a story that q friend
of his father had bribed him to
put the glass and nails into the
bread dough. The father told
the police there was a plot
among rival bakers to discredit
him after a dispute over prices.
Chief Seymour said today that
he had not been able to find
that bread containing glass had
been sold in large quantities,
nor could he substantiate
Tomff's charge that there was a
plot against him. He ques-
toned the man whom Peter ac-
cused and then released him.

Loyal Shopmen Plead
With President to
Save Their Seniority
by international News Service.

A new group in the railway strike
controversy appeared at the White
House today to demand hearing.
A delegation OF loyal shopmen''
on the Pennsylvania lines called upon
President Harding with a request
that they be permitted to retain their
recently won seniority rights in any
settlement of the strike that may be
decided upon.
They said they had accepted the
wage cut ordered by the Railway
Labor Board and had stuck by the
road, and they thought they were
entitled to retain the seniority rights
TO which they succeeded by reason
of their refusal to join In the strike.
In the delegation were p. II. Davis,
general chairman Of the Pennsyl.
vania shopcraft unions; William
Donohue, of the blacksmiths; p. r.
Hughes of the electrical workers:
f. r. Snyder, Of the carmen; ]. J..
Mcbride, Of the machinists; Howard
Emberger, of the boilermakers, and
Il. e. Arnold. Of the sheet metal
workers.

Of the Pennsylvania shopmen had
refused to obey the strike call, that

tlement that would take away
seniority and return II to strikers.
The Pennsylvania, Davis said. had
not put into effect the wage cut
ordered by the Railway Labor
Board. The boards cut was from

road reduced only s to Z cents.

The President will take no more

until he has received from the
railway executives and the railway
unions on Saturday the answer to
his latest proposal. Both sides meet
on Friday, and every indication
points to a rejection of his appeal
by either one or both parties to
the controversy.
II, after receiving the expected re

ident Harding definitely decides tc
go to Congress, II Is believed he will
ask for two things:
~ A specific grant Of authority
for the Executive to take over
those railroads unable TO discharge
their public obligations, and suf-

country against freezing.
(e) Amendment Of the Esch. Cum

some teeth for the Railway Labor
Board, a quasi judicial body that
Is now utterly without power to

A difference Of opinion exists in
the Cabinet as to whether the Pres

over railroad or coal properties
under present statutes. Some Of the
Cabinets legal authorities contend
that the President already has this
power; others believe he has not, and
the result is that, in order TO play
safe all around. the President will
ask Congress to specifically indcrse
such move before II ia made.
