Some thought It a most significant International step. We have not been on speaking terms witft the league. We have hereto fore strongly resented any attempt of the league to handle affairs on this continent. We have a Monroe Doctrine which gives us that right. Now we -not only speak to the league but are gratified she did something we always before resented. That is only one significant indi tlon we may have a different feeling for the' league from now on.

Whenever they were compelled to deal with the league on opium or whatnot it was always made clear that we had our fingers crossed. That day is gone. Rail officials are deadset against the labor amendments to the pend ing re -organization legislation. They have fold their boys in congress that they would rat,her have the bill killed than accept the labor clauses. That makes the situation strained. The labor officials have already told their people not to let the bill pass unless those amendments are in. . The rail crowd figures It can get along well enough without the bill. The roads are beginning to come back. Reports are around In finan cial quarters that the Baltimore and Ohio already Is out of the red.. Oth ers have improved their position ma terially. Prof. Berle of the brain trust Is working on some railroad reorganiza tion schemes independent of the bill. He may arrange to put as many roads as possible through the - reor ganization wringer. The R. P. o. rules gives the administration power to act. That body can and may re. fuse reorganization loans to roads charges. Such a course would force them through a modified bankruptcy and accomplish the reorganization in that way. -i A II RULB il(i0f WE e0UJEl .RUL vsm. if i m. trccfrr Myth Tossed Co. Hi
