A definite program calling for prompt return of the railroads after the passage of remedial federal legislation was worked out, at a meeting here to day of the standing committee of the association of railroad execu tives according to an announcement tonight.

The program will be. submitted next monthj to the senate Interstate commerce committee. If it is appror eed at a full meeting called here for December 30. Whatever tho cost It was said the executives are opposed to extending the period of federal control beyond 121 months after the signing nf peace. ' it . . m . a i- a as prescribed dt .aw. n is unaer- f,tf'xl that rather than have the time extended to' five years, as sug gested by Director General MeAdoo. they would prefer return of the roads without the proposed exten Roth Grpcer.C.b. sion. A hint as to what forra the executives think this lsgialstlon should take if found in the reasons they- ascribe for improved condi tions effected by government oper ation, additional equipment, aboii tioa of the shippers, power to route his own traffic, increase in demur rage rates, decrease in time allowed for "loading and unloading ears, and strict supenrision of shipments.
