Washington, Aug. 23.?In another effort to aid the presidents of the | country's railroads to find some way j in which to accept an eight hour day , for their trainmen and avert the ' ? i ? J n^M-trA DwAoMnn* Y\T i Tt: ATl llirtjitueiieu Citl irvc, XT l c^mtin i? nuvu | tonight conferred for an hour an.l a half with. President Hale Holden of j the Burlington, Daniel JWftllard of the Baltimore & Ohio and R. S. Lovett of the Union Pacific. Neither White House officials no.4 the presidents would discuss the conference.* It was said on authority, however, that the three executives went to the White House to receive ar? answer to the suggestion they made t : Mr. Wilson last night that lie gire them more specific information as to how the railroads may get additional revenue necessary to take care of th? greater payrolls that will come with the eight hour day. Earlier in the day President Wilson discussed the railroad situation at' length with Senator Xewlands and Representative Adamson. chairmen of the two committees of congress in charee of legislation affecting inter state commerce. The two chairmen are said to have agreed that the pres-* ident's position in the present situation was right, and to have said that every effort could-be expected in congress to put through nny legislation, which might help solve the difficulty. Congress Might Act. One of the means for recouping suggested by the president to the rail roads in his public outline of his position was through an increase ir?. freight rates. It "vfras pointed out tonight that the president can not di rectly ask the interstate commerce commission to grant increase to the railroads. Congress, however, mtg't pass a resolution directing the com mission, in view of what it considers 'an unprecedented situation, to gran*, higher rates. Congress also might pass a resolution directing the commission to investigate all matters involved 'j. the i onrl wholfl 'jjrcseiiu WUUVTCio; uuu vuv subject of the relations of railroads and their employes. One result ex pected from today's conference is an early. effort to pass the bill introducsl several months ago to increase the comission's ^nemibersnip from seven to nine. It is become evident that mc,.t o* the railroads executives have come to believe that there can be only one way of preventing a strike and that is by accepting tlie eight hour day plan. The chief effort in their own conre' ences today was to find some scheme b;. which an eight Hour day may ue put in operation on all the railroads at the lesat added expense.
