in power.
'In the campaign." said Senator El
kins in a statement issued at the White
House, "the Republicans charged and
believed, and convinced the American
people to the effect that these men
were inefficient. The Hepublican party
was vote. I the responsibility and to dis

said.
Opposition To Test Rates.
The decision of the executives, reach
ed in a meeting of the Association of
Railway Executives, followed eonsidera
lion of numerous plans and proposals
regarding wage and rates. Onn pro
posat was for an immediate reduction
in freight rates on agricultural com
niodities, the reduction to be effective
for sixty or ninety days ss a test. This
plan init with opposition from ma
jority of the ronds, " most of them
maintaining that they could not exist
with lower rates.
The announcement, which was em
bodied In a statement of some 1WO
words reviewing the financial eondt

tion situation even more tense than it
had been through a day in which one
rumor afier another of strikes, wage
and rate cuts had been prevalent.

An announcement from the labor
board that the piece rat sysb.ni of pay
hsd been restored also added to the ex
citement and brought reports of dis
satisfaction from the unions. I'niou
