Roll Group Asks
3 Paid Holidays,
Longer Vacation
By tbs Associated Press

Unions representing over q
half million railroad employees
made a rather modest start
yesterday in making public de-
mands on the Nations rail-
roads.
Eleven unions teamed up in
serving formal demands for
two more paid holidays a year,
over the present seven, along
with an extra weeks vacation
each year.
George Leighty, president Of
the Order Of Railroad Teleg-
raphers and chief spokesman
for the union group. promised
wage and other demands In the
next few months. Present
agreements run to November !.
The union called for bargain.
ing conferences to start soon
and suggested Nationwide ne.
gotiations. Mr.. Leighty esti-
mated the vacation-holiday de-
mands would cost about 2 per
cent Of payroll.
Operating unions - whose
members man the running
trains, while the non-oper-
ating union members service
and maintain them-have al
ready called for pay boosts Of
II to IA per cent. The rail-
roads have countered by sug-
costing q 15-cent hourly pay
cut.
Altogether the unions repre-
sent about 100000 workers.

gave Mr.. Eisenhower $50 mil
lion more than the $700 million
he sought for the economic
development loan fund.
Even more important, the
Senate stood by the President
in his opposition to changing
the loan fund from an annual
appropriation to a long-range
financing by Treasury borrow
ing. Republicans have launched
a campaign to stop the financ-
ing of spending programs with
Treasury bond issues, which
they call "backdoor" spending.
Senator Fulbright, Democrat
of Arkansas, Foreign Relations
chairman, had sponsored a
plan for a five-year IS billion
Development Loan Fund, for
which the Treasury would have
borrowed 81 billion a year.
But Senator johnson worked
out a compromise with the
Republicans to leave the loan
fund in the jurisdiction of the
