 Advanced hy I.orcc
 The proposal was advanced soy oral years ago by Mr. Lorce. the railroad corporation concerned to- Gothcr with some rights Of way and engineering survey data being at that time property Of the estate of the late l.. H, Hartman. During the long investigation Mr. Lorce and the witness introduced evidence to indicate that construction of the contemplated line at cost of $70U.- 0o0.000 would shorten present rail distances between the scaboard and the middle west and that it could be utilized in connection with exist ing lines to become the trunk of new rail transcontincntal route.
 The Pennsylvania. New York Cen tral and other operating roads strongly opposed the grant Of right to proceed and tentative re- ports to the commission in sum- marking the investigation were ad- verse.
 Route EesurNeyed
 From commission records avail able it appeared that Mir. Lorec had undertaken rcSurvcys of the route and gathered new evidence bearing on the entire proposal. In view Of this fact the new hearing was grant ed by the commission. Since the or i@inal broaching of the construction plan of the New York, Pittsburgh X Chicago line across Pennsylvania, q number of railroad merger plans in eastern territory have been present. ed which conflict with it's strategic purpose.

BIG MEETING
ON BUSINESS
National Aid Asked To
Stabilize Affairs Of
N alton

WASHINGTON. Nov. 1872
The nations foremost bankers, in
dustrial leaders. labor spokesman
and farm representatives will Jour-
ney to washington this week at
the call Of President Hoover to as
sist the Chief Executive in devils
ing plans for stabilizing American
business and expanding its act
ivities.
Abandoning his original scheme
OF one small conference to include
representatives Of all these fields,
the Chief Executive has arranged
a series Of meetings to be held from
day to day, each attended by men
prominently Unidentified with some
particular phase Of economic en-
deavor.
Tomorrow. Mr.. Hoover will con-
fer with the presidents Of the Great
Eastern railroads: on Wednesday,
officials OF the United States Cham
ber OF Commerce and leaders Of
industry and manufacturing VIII
be called in; on Thursday, spokes-
men for leading farm organizations
will assemble with the President;
and later he will meet with lead
ers of American labor.
To Battle Pessimism
AS an important result. the Chief
Executive hopes to dissolve and
vanish all foolish pessimism rs to
business conditions, which he con-
siders emphatically sound. to OBJ
viate any Ill effects that might
arise from the recent and extern
sive decline in security prices and
to stimulate into high activity those
few fields OF business that fell be-
hind during the boom and collapse
of the stock market.
The President expects TO ac-
complish this purpose by working
through existing and recognized
agencies, and sees necessity for
creating some super organization
to put its shoulder behind the pro-
ject. To coordinate the plans evolv-
ed by the group conferences. gen.
eral meetings such as he planned
at first can be held.
Aid fs Asked
Mr.. Hoover iookS to organizations
such as the United States Chamber
Of Commerce, the American Fed
Grafton Of Labor, the American
Railway association. the American
Bankers association and various
farm organizations to make full use
OF their present machinery In
achieving the results he has out
lined.
