WASHINGTON, May 10. - Fed
eral guarantee of jobs for 100000
railway employees listed on May
pay rolls has been agreed upon ten
tatively by the senate interstate
commerce committee, in an amend
ment to the administration railway
bill. The committee probably will
vote finally today on it's draft of the
bill.
The unprecedented guarantee is
calculated to safeguard the iveIi-
hood of from $4,000 to 100000 rail-
way workers whose jobs we're said
to be jeopardized by projected econ
omies and consultations.
Chairman G. c. Dill of the senate
committee predicted that the bill.
as amended, would satisfy congress.
But stiff opposition and lengthy de
bate are certain.
Reasonable, Says Congress
Former Chairman Couzens said
the bill was reasonable and in fairly
vision is expected to overcome OBJ

GENEVA, May 19.-The
world arms conference took a
definite step forward today
when Germany accepted the
British disarmament plan
which President Roosevelt
urged all nations to adopt in
his message to the world.
Rudolph Nadolny, German dele
gate, acting on Chancellor Adolf
Hitler's instructions, announced his
country's acceptance after Arthur
Henderson, president of the confer
ence, had appealed vehementIy to
Germany and other nations to
withdraw their amendments, which
were deadlocking the conference.
Atmosphere Is Tense
The general commission of the
conference convened this afternoon
in tense atmosphere, with its
leaders expressing the view that
the crisis had arrived, and the next
few days would mean peace or war
for the world
Norman H. Davis, President RooSe-
velt's special ambassador, had told
the United Press before entering the
hall:
This is the most critical week
of the conference. Either it blows
up in our faces next week or we
will be on the way to success"
The proceedings opened with the
reading of President Roosevelt's
message to the world
On the basis of Mr.. Roosevelt's
message and Chancellor Hitler5
speech, Henderson appealed to the
delegations to withdraw their
amendments
The conference can not continue
indefinitely" he said What we DO
in the next few days may be de-
cisive"
Appeals to Delegates
He appealed to the delegates for
a definite decision before the world
economic conference.
"Armaments create the very dam
ger they are designed to avoid" he
said. L ask you to consider your
imperative call to agree"
In accepting the Macdonald con-
vention, Nadolny said Germany did
so, not only as basis for discussion.
but as the base of a future con-
vention."
we reserve application of the
principles Of Chancellor Hitler's
speech for later discussion - Nadolny
said. The Germans continue to de-
mand disarmament of heavily
armed states and equality"
Germany's new attitude" soon
will be felt, Nsdolny said.
Now you have further proof of
Germany's moderation" he con-
tinued we hope other states will
bring a contribution"
Then he glared at Rene Massigli,
French delegate.
Direct Plea to France
Henderson had made direct ap-
peal to France to join the agreement
when he said, I'VE are anxiously
waiting for other nations to accept
the Macdonald convention"
President Roosevelt's appeal, he
said, should enable the majority to
withdraw their amendments and
proceed with the definite adoption
of draft convention"
He characterized Hitler's speech
as "a reasoned Statement of Ger
many's case" and as friendly ap-
peal" to obtain arms equality by the
disarmament of others.
Nadolny characterized the Roose-
welt message as that other great
manifestation Of peace which pre-
ceded ours"
The commission adjourned until
Saturday, when it will start the
real debate on the British conven-
tion. Henderson warned the dele
gates that they have only nine
