of the Senate Committee on Foreign
Relations, and 1t is understood his
nomination for the post will go to
the Senate soon after the new
treaties with Mexico are ratified by
the Senate. How soon this will be
is problematical.
ratification Of the pacts with
Mexico will be one Of the first for.
eign issues taken up by the new
Senate, however, once the present
organization deadlock Is broken.
Creager is a lawyer and has long
been prominent in Republican af.
fairs in Texas. He was closely
Identified with the Harding Admin.
istration, and acted as host to the
late President in 1920 when Mr.,
Harding spent a vacation along the
Rio Grande following his election.
It is understood that the post
was offered to Charles B. Warren,
of Detroit, late ambassador to

Hammond, noted mining engineer
but both declined 1t for personal
reasons.

RAIL MEN WILL
SEEK WAGES
INCREASE
Campaign Opens at Workers
Conference With New
York Central.
INTGRliaTIol.IlAllliI. NEWS iii
By H. p. MALKUS.
International News Service.

NEW YORK. Dec. 4.--Heads Of
the railroad brotherhoods today
opened campaign for wage in
creases and changes in working
conditions. The campaign was
launched at a conference between
the workers officers and the New
York Central Railroad. one of the
most powerful roads in the country.
If successful in the effort to
wrest an increase from the New
York Central, 1t was reported, the
rail workers will press their adj
vantage in conferences with other
roads.
Plans for an attack on the Esch-
Cummins act are also being form
ulated at private meetings OF the
union officials.
Today's meetings were between
representatives of the railroad and
the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen and the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Engineers. Friday the
Brotherhood OF Railroad Trainmen
and the Order of Railway Con-
ductors viii have their inning with
the road.
Great Importance is attached to
these two meetings by the union
heads as they are considered the
first skirmish. If the road yields
to the demands other smaller lines
will be easier to deal with, they
pointed out.
If no agreement is reported the
whole case will be. laid before the
United States Railroad Labor Board.
1t is understood the men are
seeking a wage rather more than
the peak wage of 1920" Changes
in rules and working conditions are
considered Of great Importance by
the men.
