SEEK RETURN TO
FORTilER STATUS
NEW YORK, Dec 20. 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. While provisions for the
plan were not made public it was
said that they took Into a consider
ation every detail of the problem.
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.
Today's committee meeting fol
low a session held la "Philadelphia
last week, -when a tentative draft
agreement was made. Since then the
24 members of the comnvjttee-.it was
said-had aubmitted the draft to the
leading railroad interesta In various
parts of the enntry.

ed, would work wonders and remove
a general menace to public health.
"Their sleeping and living apart
ments are lily ventilated, the report
says, "and the per capita air space
arforded Is about one-third that rec
ommended for health conditions. The
Jaoanese are much ahead of the Chi-

among both races could and should

The Japanese noDulatlon In the

road work from S3 to 13.50 a day
and at common labor from $2 to S3.

The report covers a wiae rsnge or
