.R.R. HEADS MEET
ON PEACE PLAN
After a Two Hour Discus
sion Executives Adjourn
Till Afternoon
EASTERN LINES
VERSUS WESTERN
Latter Said to Be for Peace
at Any Price-East
Opposed

New York, Aug. % fBy the Asso
ciated Press Railway executives con
vened to-day at the Yale club to con
slider proposals for settlement Of the
shopmen's strike submitted last week
by the running trades acting as medi.
ators, adjourned at 1880 o'clock until
2:30, after a discussion lasting more
than two hours.
Although no official statement was
Forthcoming, it was reported that GER
tain counter proposals had been under
discussion, This was taken to indicate
that should the executives not accept
the suggestions made by the Brother
hood chiefs, the door to peace still
would be left open.
"The situation looks mighty seri-
ous.v Howard Elliott of the Northern
Pacific said to colleague on leaving
the meeting.
Rlmors current during the recess
were that the roads would stand firm
on their refusal to restore strikers
with seniority rights unimpaired. In
dications were that the committee
which conferred last week with the
brotherhood men would receive their
Instructions, of whatever nature, this
afternoon and then would get into
communication with the mediation
committee, either late to-day or early
tomorrow.
1t was understood that informal
vote was taken during the morning
session and that the roads were unan-
imously opposed to receding on the
seniority question, the western roads
coming over TO the position taken by
the eastern Snes. The committee
which first met the brotherhood men
was reported to be spending the re-
cess drawing up resolution to be
presented TO the entire body after
lunch.
Heads Of the western lines entered
the conference hall full Of optimism
as they have entered each Of the two
previous conferences when President
Harding, through his peace proposals,
adopted the role of mediator.
Frankly and unreservedly these west
ern roads want the strike settled and
express Il willingness TO make any prac-
tical concession which will relieve their
roads Of growing shortage Of usable
rolling stock, with a bumper crop near
|y upon them, and coal mining already
being resumed on large scale.
Opposing this attitude, and with
forces more compactly mustered, were
The heads Of the powerful eastern
roads, led by L. r. Loree Of the Della
ware 4 Hudson; W. w. Atterbury Of
he Pennsylvania; A. Fl. Smith of the
Sew York Central; Frederick Under
wood of the Erie, and f. J. Parson Of
he New Haven. Their roads are in ex
client condition; their shops are well
manned; they are near to the large Ia
,or markets, aud they maintain they |
ire ready to back their pledges to |
stand by the loyal men who refused |
o put them ahead Of strikers on the |
eniority rolls
The only eastern president about /
ghom this group expressed any uneas-
ness was Daniel Willard. who, II was
aid, might join the "peace at any |
rice" delegation from the west, of
which Hale Holden, president of the
J. B. and Q. and 5. NJ FELTON, OF the
'hicago Greatwestern were pointed out
5 leaders.
