to persons who attendee! the preaiI dent’s general railway conference. I In informed quarters. It was said j that neither labor nor management j ia satisfied recommendations made : will solve the railroads’ financial i problems. Union leaders, It was learned. I reiterated their opposition to wage reductions proposed by the executives and warned that a bitter labor struggle would not make the critical problems any easier to solve. The two groups could not agree ona federal unemployment insurance program for the nearly !.- 000,000 railway workers. A bill spansored by the unions will be introduced in congress today by Sens. Burton K. Wheler, D. Mont., and Robert F. Wagner. 1).. N. Y. J. J. Pelley, president of the Association of American Railroads. ! said his directors could not agree to support the measure. He said that they feared the possibility of both state and federal unemployment systems with duplicate taxation. o Police commissioner William 11. Bell has returned from a week’s business trip to Indianapolis.

BITTER FIGHT (CONTINUED FROM I’.WP ONE) Democratic opposition, announced he would renew points of order against two titles of the four-title house bill, challenging the legality of their consideration on the ground that the house already has passed them. If that effort fails, the opposition coalition will attempt to defeat the bill. Pettengill, rules chairman John O'Connor. D., N. Y.. and Rep. John Taber, R„ N. Y.. believed that they had a fair chance on that score. The house voted 202 to 143 yesterday on a motion to begin consideration of the measure. Pettengill pointed out that a change of only 30 votes would have prevented even that. "I would say,” he said, “that unless the bill is greatly amended on the floor a motion to recommit is apt to carry. Remember, 143 members voted not even to consider the bill.

I iemonstration of the unnecessar- , ily high cost of rendering telephone service by Bell system com- ■ pan les " I "It points out that complete conr Hol of all Bell system activities, .policies and practices, is centralized in the central management of the American Telephone and Tele- ‘ graph company in New York," he. i said. "Due to this centralized manage- . incnt control, the Bell system has . successfully evaded effective Atate i regulation, despite the separate corporate entities of the operating subsidiaries." The report urged that congress establish a national policy for the purpose of achieving efficient telephone service at "reasonable" cost This policy. It said, should be: , "Development of a progressively increasing volume and constantly] improving quality of national wire communications service at a pro- ' gressively decreasing unit cost." It recommended adoption of F resident Roosevelt's "prudent investment" theory of property valuation as a basis for determining rates. The powers requested of congress are: 1. To review, approve or dis-1 ! approve all Bell system policies! and practices. 2. To regulate the costs and pi ices of telephone apparatus and equipment. 3 To review, approve or disapprove all intercompany transac-1 lions. 4. To regulate the financing movements of the entire corpora1 lion including the purchase, sale i or issuance of stocks and bonds. 5. To limit the scope of Bell system activities to the communi-, cations field, including authority to restrict the acquisition of patants from other companies or individuals. 6. Specific authority to fix temporary telephone rates when it is found the income from such rates is excessive. The report investigated the various activities of the industry, its methods of eliminating competition. of exercising control over! both associated and independent 1 companies, its research programs, control and acquisition of patents, manufacture of equipment,, its method of accounting for depreciation of property, its financing, pension plans, and its activities in fields other than communication. o LIST PROGRAM (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) Dawn".
