The Watson-Parker railroad labor bill, which has fust been passed by the Senate and sent to the President for his approval, was today character: ized by former Gov. Henry .J. Allen of Kansas ‘‘the most sinister bill that has menaced the farmer's interests for a generation.” The bill, Gov. Allen declared, marks a step bgckward in industrial rela- tions and leaves the public absolutely tected, with the railroad broth- and the raflroads in a stra- c position to force increases. in wages and in freight rates, which must come out of the pockets of the ners and the public generall The new Watson-Parker law,” said Gov. Allen, “really amounts to the approval by Congress of a private agreement between the Jeaders of the most powerful railway unions and the ives of the most powerful rail in the United States to work together on wages and rates and eliminate entirely the public from any vight to interfere in future adjust- ments of labor controversies. New Philosophy Adopted. “Thus they repealed the act creat- ing the Labor Board, which was estab- lished at a critle hour to protect a public then ed by kes and threats of strikes. The new bill wipes , so far as Congress may wipe out, the philesophy that had gained some foothold in this country that the public is entitled to protection in those controversies which arise between capital and labor in such essential in- dustries as transportation. n the new bill, the public repre- sentation in future labor controversies is explicitly removed. Wa become again the submerged nine-tenths, at the mercy of the executives of rail- ways and leaders of rallway labor unions, who now enter into a com- mon partnership under a benign gov- ernment to traffic together in the re- sources of the public. which are the only resources upon which they profit. The public has in the future oniy the melancholy satisfaction of paying what the secretaries of war for labor and capital decree we shall pay for our peace.

When Curtis, leader of the Senate, finally awoke to the menace of the bill he found that the labor leaders and the raflroad executives had al- ready pledged 70 Senators to give to the powerful agreement between la- bor leadership and railroad manage- ment the sancitity of law. “Senator Norbeck uttered in mock- the essence of the truth when he said, ‘“The bill should ve its title amended to read “An act fo increase hours of labor of farmers from 14 to 16 hours a day and re duce those of railway employes from 8§ to 7 hours.””’ Senator Norbeck had in mind the fact, doubtless, that there e now before the Interstate Com- merce Commission applications for treight rate increases on grain and other farm commodities which will cost the farmers of the Middle West £100,000,000, and there are in the background contemplated applica- tion's §300,000,000 morve.” BOTH MEN AND SPARROWS FAVOR YELLOW FLOWERS and er Former Also Like Scarlet Cerise, While Women Prefer Pale Shades, Report Says. ciated Press .

Proorietor EVENING ° WINDOW FGHT 0 PROLONG CONGRES SESSON Complication Over Farm Aid Dashes Hope for June Adjournment. BY DAVID LAWRENCE. All hope 6f an adjournment before the middle of June has vanished and the session may be prolonged beyond that ~date, now that Congress faces a real climax on farm legislation. “The' McKadden Pepper branch bank- ing bill occupies the Senate's atten- tion while the farm bills are being debated in the House. In both propo- sitions there is enough debate 1o keep the Senate occupied for several weeks. The ~ prohibition hearings have developed « voluminous record. which has yet to be presented to the Senate, and, since this campaign vear, undoubtedly there will be some further discussion of the Volstead ict before the last gravel announces the hour of adjournment. President Plans Uncertain. President Coolidge {8n't making plans for departure in June, despite the talk of the Summer capital to be established in the Adriondacks. Mr. Coolidge is to make a speech July 4 in Philadelphia at the Sesquicen- tennfal and the general expection now is that he will leave Washington en route to northern New York a day before July 4, to return here September. | Congress Here Longer.

In the year preceding the urge to get away was due to the political conventions at which candi dates for President and Vice Presi- dent were to be nominated. While it is true the congressional elections would ‘seem to be a good reason for early adjournment, so as to give mem- bers time to ‘“mend fences” back home, most of the candidates for re-election prefer to leave Washington after they can point with pride to par- ticular legislation they have sponsor- ed or supported. Farm Bills Complicated. The principal thorn in the side of Congress just now is the situation that has ‘developed over the farm relief bills. Intimations have come from the White House that the lHau that it involves price-fixing. measure is being vigorously fought In the House and an unusual alignment may be seen in that body if the bill is defeated, namely a coalition of! conservative Democrats and KEastern If the Haugen bill does Should the Haugen biil titute for the two other bills—the Tincher and Aswell bills—the House may have to wait until the Senate straightens out the tangle and permits of a compromise in conference. At present it would appear that there are net enough votes in the Senate to override a presidential veto, but there are enough to assure the passage of the Haugen bill by the Senate, if it ever should get through a close vote. be offéred as a Packard Speed Boat For Sale Used only three months.
