The declaration of the labor chiefs,

process of formation since yesterday
morning, when they convened here.
While the unions are expected to sup
port the increase, there was a sugges-

lief that there might be some qualifica-
ton, for 1t is known that the question
has been raised as to whether the rail-
roads might not lose additional traffic
to trucks. Already the inroadS by the
highway carriers have been responsible
for the furloughing of thousands of
men in train service and there are fears
: OF greater cuts.

FOR extensive discussion is certain. as
it apparently has been the only matter
thus far taken up by the union heads
Furthermore a special committee was
appointed at the conference yesterday
to prepare a statement on this matter,
which is understood to have been pre-
sented to the conference this morning
for further study.
Study Other Questions.
In addition to the question of rates,
the brotherhoods also are taking up
the four-system railroad consolidation
plan now under study by the Eastern
roads. a shorter work week, including
the six-hour day and old-sge pensions.
