By ATHAX ROBERTSON Associated Press Staff Writer WASHINGTON. April 11. OP; Sen ator Nye (R., N. D.), said today Sen , a tor Vandenberg of Michigan looka to him like a "standout" possibility for the republican presidential nomina tion next year. The youthful mid-western Inde pendent said In an interview It was too soon to make forecasts of next gear's political line up, tout picked his Michigan colleague as the one the lightning seemed likely to strike. When asked about the republican possibilities as they look today, he said: Vandenberg Stands Out "There is only one standout at the present time and that Is Senator Van denberg." He added Governor Landon, of Kansas was being discussed, and might develop Into a serious candi date, and that former Governor Win ant of New Hampshire had always ap pealed to him aa a possibility. Nye was asked whether he believed the republicans would have a chance next year. "The republicans have a chance," he said, "If they brighten up a lit tle and offer something besides the 'old dear." Vandenberg, a member of Nyea munitions Investigating committee, was thrust Into the limelight last fall by his re-election in Michigan while his republican colleagues In other states were being burled by the demo cratic landslide.

(AP) Railroad investment quarters have pinned their hopes for greater earn ings on an Increase In freight traf fic. Weekly reports on carloadlngs, In dicating revenue to railroads from hauling freight, have assumed an Interest equal to that shown In the eventual fate of the railroad retire ment act and the battle which some believe may develop over wages. In the 13 weeks that carloadlngs have been reported this year, there were eight Increases compared with 10 Increases for the same period last year, but the latest weekly total was 617,000 cars against a comparable 1034 total of 608,000. Some analysts, however, discount past actions and contend the trend of freight move ment In the next few months will be of more importance. Enthusiasm over the recent Inter state commerce commission decision authorizing freight rate lncseases oi some 988.000,000 a year was dis counted In Wall street by full resto ration April 1 of the 10 per cent wage cut which went Into effect In early 1933. The new rates, expected to become effective April 18, will run. to June 30, 1036. Benefits, It was pointed out, will be mostly to eastern roads, especially those having heavy coa. shipments. Restoration of the last portion o the 10 per cent wage cut addc about $166,000,000 to 9160,000,000 t the annual wage bill of roads, mo of which was being paid by the roa: . at the start of 1035. It has been conceded In some Wi Street quarters that carriers will a; for a 10 per cent (some say a .1 per cent) wage cut May 1, although the freight rate addition has been cited as a potent weapon of labor chiefs In fighting the proposal.
