DAWES IN CHICAGO,
TO CRITICIZE SENATE

President Dawes believes that rules
under which at times one senator exer-
cises a power greater than the veto
of the President, brings the United

ICES its procedure, and interferes with
its power TO properly act under its
constitutional authority. The vice

TAMPA. Fla, December 3l.-ofh-
Gals of dog-racing plants yesterday
were awaiting results of an appeal TO
the State Supreme Court from ruing
Tuesday by Judge F. NJ. Robes. in

The ruling directly affects three dog
tracks. Tampa, ST. Petersburg ana
Miami. which now are in operation.
1t also may stop the West Coast
Jockey Club from putting on its VIM
ter horse meet here in February, in
event the ruling is upheld by the State
Supreme Court.
An effort is being made TO obtain
civil supercedeas, which would per-
init the club to continue racing pend

tition for the writ is expected in few
days. Meanwhile the plant will re-
main closed.

Nashville: zone of the most important
factors contributing to the unprece-
dented service in the past year was
the lack of agitation designed to in
fiuence legislation affecting common
carrier operations.
Carl r. Gray, Union Pacific: 1t Is
apparent that Federal laws will be
somewhat modified with respect to
consultations and in the labor sec
ton, and l believe that both, in the
light Of nearly six years experience
can be improved upon in the general
interest"
+. +. Loomis, Lehigh Valley: IF
the Interstate Commerce Commission
is given authority to approve volun-
tarv consultations and an agreement
can be reached in regard to the proper
and fair adjustment Of labor troubles,
nothing further would seem necessary
at this time.
Right of Consolidation.
l.. J. Pearson. New Haven: NO
changes in legislation are needed eX-
cent perhaps that. in view of the re
cent expressions Of the Interstate
Commerce Commission and amend
ment of compulsory consultations
and permitting voluntary groups by
the railroads themselves, subject to
approval OF the commission, Noulu ne
a step in the right direction
A. T. Dice, Philadelphia and Read
ing: IF Congress will amend or enact
legislation providing for voluntary
consultations. this would undoubtedly
promote consultations.
William Sproule, Southern Pacific
Company, and H. T.. Byram, receiver
of the Chicago, Milwaukee and st.
Paul strongly urge changes in regu-
Iations to permit the Western rail
roads better to meet the competition
of steamships operating through the
