tian Science churches was an
nounced In the oficial gazette

Tank Cars Expected
To Begin Moving Oil
To East Next Week
Freight Rates Cut, but
Increase Is Foreseen
In RetoiI Prices

Petroleum to end the East Coast
shortage of 175,o0o barrels a day
will begin rolling in railroad tank
cars from Western sources early
next week, 1t was predicted today
after Americas big oil and railway
company executives conferred in a
closed session here and came out
last night with an agreement for
slashing rail rates on gas and oil.
On gasoline, all present tariffs for
transportation to the East will be
cut a fiat IS per cent. The same
reduction will apply to fuel ola
major transportation problem as
winter comes on.
Crude oil rates on the tank cars
will be sliced up to so per cent
although in some cases the reduc-
ton will be less.
Retail Price Rise Seen.
Indications were that consumers
will be asked to accept boosts in
prices for their petroleum products
despite the rail reductions.
The oil companies declared they
will not ask for the sanction of any
price increase on account of in
creased transportation costs tcom-
pared with tanker ships until ap-
propriate showing has been made

President Makes
Next Move in
Rail Dispute
kS the Associated Press.


President Roosevelt makes the
next move in the railroads wage
dispute.
Under the Railway Labor Act,
II the situation threatens seri-
ously to interfere with inter-
state commerce, he may create
an emergency board to investi-
gate the facts.
Here are the processes through
which the law requires a railway
dispute to pass before a strike
may be put into effect:
l. Negotiation Of the demands
abandoned August 81. .'
z. Mediation of the demands
abandoned today.
3. Offer Of arbitration (rejected
by the unions today.
4. Appointment OF a fact-fnd
ing board.
This board must report to the
President within 80 days of its
creation. There are no provisions
for enforcement of it's findings,
reliance being placed on the force
Of public opinion.
In no case, however, may
strike become effective until 30
days after the board has made its
report.
