CUMM|NS To URGE
RAIL LEGISLATION
Proposals to Amend Trans
portation Act to Be Laid
Before President.
Railroad legislation. amending the

Railroad legislation. amending the
transportation act. will be proposed
by Senator Cummins, chairman of the
coming session of Congress.
Senator Cummins. who just return
ed to Washington today. called at
the White House and made an en-
gagement to see the President in re-
gard to railroad legislation either
tomorrow or the next day. 1t is pos
sible that the President in his opening
gress may deal with the railroad situa-
tion.
Asked to Return.
Senator Cummins was asked to re-
turn to Washington by the President,
it is understood. for the special pur-
pose Of discussing a program Of rail-
road legislation. The President, 1t
is expected, will deal with the matter
in a message to Congress. probably
in his annual message at the opening
of the regular session in December.
The administration is bent upon
preventing a recurrence Of transpor-
tation strikes. such as hampered the
country during last summer. While
nothing has as yet been said to indi-
cate what the program of railroad
legislation will be specifically, 1t is
believed that a proposal will be made
to strengthen the Railroad Labor
Board. 1t may provide for penalizing
the railroads for failure to obey the
decisions of the board. -It-may also

upon the employees. which would be-
in effect. anti-strike legislation.
Board May BE Reorganised.
Another proposal that may be made
is a reorganization of the Railroad
Labor Board, doing away with the
existing plan under which ne-third
Of the members of the board are rep.
resentatdve Of the railroads. one third
Of the employees and one-third of the
general public, and making she board
membership representative alone OF
the general public.
| Th0re Is strong desire to make
impossible recurrence Of the trans
portation strike which took place last
summer. 1t is considered likely thai
the legislation proposed by Senator
Cummins will deal with that phase OF
the maCIeT.
Farm Bloc Active. !.
A strong effort will be made by
| members of the farm bloc to put
through legislation repeating the So
called rate-making provision of the
Transportation act. and also repeating
the provisions which authorize the
Interstate Commerce Commission to
| review decisions Of state railway
commissions on intrastate rates.
Farmers in the west are insistent
that something be done to- bring
about a lower freight rate. They in
sist that 1t is impossible for them to
harvest and transport thier crops un-
der present conditions.
1t is exceedingly doubtful that any
railroad legislation can be put
through in the short special and reg
ular session, between now and March
4, when the present Congress expires.

SOLVED BY MESSAGES.
Premiers to Talk Over Plans on
Way to Lausanne.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, November 14.-The trou-
blesome question of how a meeting
Of the allies could be arranged be-
fore the Lausanne peace conference
for the purpose of outlining the allied
program, as Great Britain has in
sisted, has been solved as a result
of an exchange of messages by the
chancelleries at Paris, Rome and
London.
Neither Premier Poincare Of France
nor Premier Mussolini Of Italy can
leave his capital for a conference
elsewhere before proceeding to Lau-
Same, 1t has developed, but Lord
Curzon. the British secretary for for
eign affairs. has arranged to see
Premier Poincare In Paris on the
way to Lausanne, probably on Thurs
day. and the conversation will be
continued by the two on the train
from Paris to Lausanne. Premier
Mussolini has arranged to leave Rome
for Lausanne Friday and join his
colleagues for a preliminary meeting
at Lausanne Sunday.
No Ground for Protest.
Reports from Geneva that the Turks
would refuse to enter the Lausanne
conference If the allies made any
preliminary agreements evoked the
statement in official circles here that
little Importance was attached to
this. 1t was pointed out that it was
the customary thing for the allies to
have preliminary conferences under
similar circumstances and that there
was no logical ground upon which
the Turks could protest against such
meeting now. Oficial messages
from Constantinople today indicated
the situation there was somewhat
easier. 1t was stated here that the
Turks were not becoming any more
unconciliatOry.
The opinion is expressed in official
quarters that in view of the easing of
the tension the allies representatives
at Constantinople have decided 1t Is
unnecessary for the present to pro-
claim a state Of siege.
A news agency dispatch from Con-
stantinople dated Monday said the al
lies had handed Rodosto over to the
nationalists and that Adrianople
would be turned over next Sunday

BY the Associated Press.

LAUSANNE. November 14.-As
spectacle the Turkish delegation
to the peace conference has been
a keen disappointment to the peo-
pie of Lausanne. Not a single
member of the delegation wears
the red fez. Most of the dele
gates have even laid aside their
astrakhan caps and are so con-
ventionally dressed in derbies and
European overcoats and suits that
the curious Swiss are unable to
distinguish the Turks from other
guests at the Palace Hotel.
The only oriental touch about
the Turkish party today was pro-
vided by several Turkish news
paper men attending the confer
ence. They still wear bright
fezes Several of the Turkish
delegates are red-haired and so

or words to that effect, holds true in
the case of Henry Turner, who has
been given contract to furnish the

dence for c. R. Wood, rancher of the
Jerusalem country above Horseshoe
Bend. Last Thursday Mr.. Woods

ANOTHER SHIFT TO GO
ON AT MILL
Depletion of Stocks in Yards
Is Cause of Order to
Speed Up Output

Another full shift at the Boise
Payette mill has been ordered, and il
the skilled mechanics who are on their
way from distant points to superin-
tend operations the night run will
start Monday.
The cause of the increased opera
tion is the demand for lumber. Never
since the Boise Payette company open
ed the plant here have the stocks in
the yards been SO depleted. Right
now difficulty is being experienced in
securing enough cars to transport
the influx of orders, but it is believed
this shortage is only temporary and
that within few weeks there will be
no trouble on this score.
The added shift will increase the
payroll tbout $4,000 month.

APARTMENT HOUSE IS
PROJECTED
Modern Building of Seven
Suites to be Erected
in West Emmett

A modern apartment house will be
built this fall and completed by the
first of January by Tyler and Wal
ters, contracting builders, it was an
nounced yesterday.
The building will be located in MUIR
ray addition, east of the Dave Muir
ray residence in West Emmett, and
will be AZ 1876 feet in dimensions.
1t will consist of seven apartments,
each having three rooms and bath
room, two roomy porches, one of which
will be arranged as sleeping porch,
and basement. They will be mod
ern in every way, except heat, but
provision made for heating the rooms
by either electricity or stove as de-
sired. Built-in conveniences and fur
niture will abound. The building will
be one story and of frame construc-
tion.
This will be the first modern apart
ment house to be built in Emmett and
will fill long felt need. This city is
suffering severely from house short
age and it is hoped that investors
will follow the example set by this en-
terprising firm of builders and assist
in relieving the situation. There is
not vacant house in town and in a
number of cases, two and even three
families are occupying one dwelling.
