No better evidence of this could be wanted than the fact that they were totally' disre- garded the moment the government took the railways over.

Of the two measures before con- r2ss Cealing with the railroads it is unlikely that either will be approved as it starids. Out of the conferéfice that will be necesfary upon them some legisiation will probably be forthcom- ing hut it should not be of & hit or Miss character.
