EFFORTS WATCHED 'Optimism - Prevails at B. & 0. Conlerence This Alternoon Chicago, July 24— (By Press) — With government officlals maintaining silence in regard to the rallway strike, except for the an- nouncement _of Ben W. Hooper, chalrman, that the railroad labor board wquld make no further move at present, interest today turned to separate peace efforts of railroads and strikers, Officials of the Baltimore and Ohfo wrallroad had a meeting at Baltimore with representatives of the striking shopmen and it was confi- dently predicted that the Baltimore conference would obtain favorable re- sults, Should the meeting result in an ad- justment, it was expected other rail- roads would follow the same course. B. M. Jewell, head of the shopmen's union, refused to comment on the Baltimore parley, but previously had acknowledged receiving offers of set- tlement from a number of roads, That President Harding might take ome action soon was indicated in his efforts: to obtain the facts from all angles. The conference riday be- tween members of the senate inter- state commerce committee and east- ern rail chiefs, the conference be- tween Chairman Hooper and Secre- iry Davis meeting at Mooseheart with strike leaders, a member of the labor board, and 'a commissioner of conciliation of the department of la- bor, seemed to strengthen the belief that a definite plan was being made. Possible action by the interstate commerce commission was seen in the statement of Attorney General Daugh- erty that the dommissioner could ex- ercise a supervisory power over car- riers, But this would probably mean that the commission would direct dis- tribution of coal under a 'system of rationing. Few disturbances over Sunday. Gov. Neff, of Texas, announced that he was prepared to send aid to any points where trains were being de- ayed, but said that ample protection could be given by rangers and that none of the Texas national guard would be sent for the time. Guards- men have been called out in nine ates. Railroads which had declared em- bargoes on perishable freight con- tinued to enforce the ban and motor trucks were pressed into service in several instances. At Boone, Iowa, motor trucks were being used to carry mails to and from the town of Moin- gona.

Mascow, July 24.—(By Assoclated FPress.)—The executive committee of the third internationale has sent an appeal to the prolectariat recommend- ing its taking ihe offensive.

Several chambers in the other re- volver were empty. 4 WA Boston and Maine and ‘“New Haven” Shopmen Will Appeal Shortly.
