UPPER MARLBORO, Md. Febru-
ary AT a special meeting of the
Prince Georges County Bar Associa-
tion held in the law library in the
courthouse yesterday, two proposed
bills providing for creation of q
county constabulary. presented by
members of a committee appointed
by hte association recently, were re-
jected. Two members of the COM
mittee, S. Marvin Peach of Hyatts-
vile and William Stanley of Laurel
presenting the majority report
thought the members of the county
constabulary should be appointed by
nority report, offered by NJ. Hamp-
ton Magruder of Upper Marlyboro, it
was believed commissioners should
appoint them, but that their selec-
ton should be made on recommeda-
ton of the sheriff. The minority re-
port also favored the sheriff being
head of the county police force. The
committee was reappointed and in
strueted to bring in another report
at a meeting to be held next Tues
day at the courthouse. Some mem
bers thought the county had not yet
reached the stage where it needed
special police force.
Proposed legislation providing for
establishment of a county police court
and for other changes in county laws
was not reached yesterday, but, it is
hoped. can be considered at next
Tuesdays meeting.
Pending a final decision in the DO
lice force situation the county COM

RAIL STRIKE FADES
AS PACT IS SIGNED
Southeastern Brakemen and
Conductors Get Seven-and-
Half Per Cent Increase.

Possibility Of a strike of brakemen
and conductors of Southeastern rail
roads was eliminated with announce
ment by the Federal Board of Media
tion yesterday that an agreement has
been signed between the railroads and
labor organizations representing their
train service employees. The agree
ment calls for a IN per cent wage in
crease, effective February 1.
The agreement concluded negotia-
tions which have been in progress here
for a month. The increase is identical
in amount to that which was received
by train service employees of Eastern
railroads. Twenty trunk lines, includ-
ing all the principal systems in the
Southeast, except the Southern Rail-
way, and $4,000 employees are covered
in the agreement.
Strike Vote Disregarded.
A strike vote was taken fast Fall
by the Order of Railway Conductors
and the Brotherhood of Railroad
Iralnmen after negotiations had been
broken off in their effort to secure. a
considerably larger increase than the
IN per cent granted yesterday. The
mediation board however, asked the
railroads and the brotherhoods to renew
discussions. The request was granted
ana the strike vote disregarded pend
ing outcome of new parleys.
In railroad circles it is now expected
that demand for wage increases will
be proffered in behalf of the engineers
and firemen, and, if so, committees
representing these organizations and
the managements are again likely to
be called into negotiations.
The railroads calculate that the
wage payments to the $4,000 men
given an increase yesterday will be
about $3,300,000 a year above those
which now prevail.
Working Rules Mapped.
The amount of wage increase OBJ
tanned was agreed upon some time
ago by the negotiators, but the con-
tracts also relate to a large number
of regulations and working rules
upon which detailed controversy was
conducted during the period of nego-
tiation and prolonged the discussion

regulations were said on the whole,

COVELL REPORTS
ON TREE CUTTING
Public Utilities Commission to
Get Secret Findings at
Next Meeting.

Mai. w. +. r. Covell senior as
sistant Engineer Commissioner. pre-
pared a report for the Public Utilities
Commission today on the result of his
investigation of the mysterious trim
ming of about 80 of Washington
beautiful shade trees along the route
of the double-deck busses of the
Washington Rapid Transit Co.
The report will be submitted to En-
gineer Commissioner j. Franklin Bell,
chairman of the commission, at whose
direction Maj. Covell made the survey.
Maj. Covell was instructed to ascer-
tain the width of the streets over
which the double -deckers operate, as
we'll as the damage done to the trees
by these busses and recommend
whether or not they should he pro-
hibited from running on the narrow
streets.
Findings Kept Secrec.
Maj. Covell declined to reveal the
recommendations in his report. The
commission will consider his recon-
mendations at it's next meeting.
No action has yet been taken by
District authorities to prosecute
Clarence s. Putnam, shop foreman of
the bus company who, according to
HOIlc6 capt. Ffe0 COrnWell or the
tenth precinct, has taken entire re-
sponsibility for the trimming of the
trees on Thirteenth, Allison and Har-
ward streets before daybreak on the
morning of January &c.
Prosecution Is Delayed.
The contemplated prosecution has
been delayed on account of a death
in Putman's family.
District officials apparently have
abandoned their plans to endeavor to
prosecute the company for the tree
cutting episode, in view of Putman's s
exoneration of the officials, whom he
said had no knowledge of his ac-
tivity. Commissioner Bell expressed
the belief that the company should
be held responsible for the acts of it's
agents, but the corporation counsels
