RAIL- PAY SLASH
ADVISED AGAINST
Roosevelt Says 0ffhand He
Believes Such Action
InadvisabIe.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
President Roosevelt expressed an off,
hand opinion today that a wage cut
for railroad workers at this time would
be inadvisable.
Asked what he thought about this
question. under consideration by rail-
road management in Chicago today.
the President told his press conference
he had not given it any consideration,
but when asked whether he thought q
cut in wages at this time would be ad-
visable, he hesitated a moment and
then replied that of1hand he would
say it was not.
In reply to other questions about his
railroad rehabilitation conference yes
terday, the President said the estimate
of savings through consultations by
Chairman w. NJ w. Splawn of the
Interstate Commerce Commission
that 10 per cent would have to come
from labor and 80 per cent otherwise
was based on physical mergers of the
roads.
Study Federal Agency.
As result OF this conference, q
special presidential committee studied
today the proposed creation of a Fed
eral agency empowered to promote
railroad consolidation and reorganiza-
ton.
Many observers believed this pro-
posal would be the heart Of q program
the committee will present to Presi-
dent Roosevelt next Thursday as a way
to put weak lines on a financially
sound basis.
Its recommendations. perhaps with
some notifications. were expected to
be sent to Congress by the President
within two or three weeks
The committee is composed Of Mr..

PLAN TO BE NOVEL

However, there is an authorita-
tive reason to believe that before
Mr.. Roosevelt ends this term of
office he will ask Congress for
enabling legislation for project
Of novel historical and educa
tional value to the public. 1t is
said by those who claim to know
what the President is doing that
he is planning an additional public
facility in the line of historical re-
search.
The President has several hob
bies in the field of history. One
of these is connected with the
Navy; and he of course has had a
first hand contact with the acts
Of his predecessors in office.
It is orally understood
among the Presidents close
friends that the project will be
completed by the time he ends
this term of office and that he
may ask for the congressional aid
which Representative Woodruff re-
ferred to when he leaves the White
House, or possibly thereafter.

ROOSEVELT HAS
PLAN TO USE
WRITING FEES.
Money From Papers
For History Research
By EARL GOODWIN

What is the President planning
with the money he personally re-
ceives from the publication of
books based on presidential papers,
and the magazine and syndicated
articles based on the stenographic
reports of the presidential press
conferences?
Representative Roy Woodruff
,(R0. Michigan. wants to know.
He asked the question in a
lengthy statement mimeographed
in the Republican National Head
quarters and published widely yes
terday., Whether or not Repre-
sentative Woodruff or the Repub-
lican high command expected an
answer from the President or from
the Presidents Secretary, Stephen
T. Early, no answer is forthcom-
ing so far-and those close to the
President assert there will be none
at the moment.
PRESIDENT HAS PLAN
The President has the plan for
the use Of the money fairly well
planned; but there are some loose
ends vet to be cleared away and
there is little likelihood that the
public will be taken into Franklin
D. Roosevelt's confidence until the
matter is complete in every detail.
Those who know exactly what
the Presidential plans for the use
of this money comprise are salts
fled that it would be against the
interest of the project to make it
public now The President let 1t
be known through his Secretariat
that the profit on this publishing
and syndicating venture would be
used in a public purpose and that
it would require legislation by
Congress.
CALLED ATTENTION TO 1T
Representative Woodruff, at the
close Of Congress, called attention
to the fact Congress had closed
and no request had come from the
President for legislation to help
him spend this private and per-
sonal cash. He pointed out Mem
bers Of Congress had waited three
and a half months to be told what
the President is planning and
that there had been no call from
the White House.
Perhaps" said Mr.. Woodruff,
the answer to this purpose is
that the President and Mr. Early
had not been able to think up
plausible useful purpose. Or
perhaps, the answer is that Mr..
Early's statement stilled the crit
icis1n, thus serving its only pur
pose"
Mr.. Early says he did not see
the Woodruff statement, and

An interesting post view of the
contest for State Senator in Cascade
county was prominently demon
strated in the election just closed.
The Montana Pension Association, a
statewide pension movement, in
corporated last fall as a non-profit
organization for social justice and
economic security for citizens of the
needy and exploited class, waged an
active campaign for pension-minded
candidates, at a mass meeting in the
courthouse, on Sunday afternoon,
where nearly two thousand voters
gathered. The candidates for the
State Legislature appeared and every
legislative candidate on the Demo-
cratic ticket except Dick O'Day,
pledged himself to an adequate bona
fide state pension. Dick O'Day, the
Democratic candidate for State SEN
ator did not appear at all and never
had come to a pension meeting OF
voters. But Mr.. Dahl, the Republi-
can candidate, appeared and heartily
pledged himself, if elected, to do all
within his power to further a bona
fide adequate state pension and had
always contributed to the organiza-
ton all summer.
On Monday, November 7, the Pen
sion Association published, in the
Great Falls Leader, all the names
of the legislative candidates that had
appeared and pledged themselves to
the program of the pension associa-
ton. Every one of these candidates
was elected by a large majority vote.
It demonstrates beyond a doubt, the
state pension vote yields the politi-
cal balance of power in Montana
elections.
