Congress To Pass Measure To Aid Roads (Continued From Page 1) the session, told reporters after his talk with the President this morning that "the bill will be passed before Congress adjourns." He said Mr. Roosevelt stated he would "not object to passage of the bill." The' railroad relief bill was slated for passage weeks ago, but it was hurriedly withdrawn after the carriers announced their 15 percent wage cut, which labor has served notice it will not accept. George M. Harrison, president of the railway labor groups, made it clear they were still opposed to the RFC-aid measure unless the carriers back-up their wage cut.

Another session of the labor executives will be held late today. Members of the Senate Finance Committee declined to state whether the sharp about-face on the RFC-aid measure was part of a "trade" with the carriers that have voiced opposition to the Wagner-Crosser Bill. This latter measure would set up a separate unemployment compensation system for railroad workers, it has passed tne House, and is now on the Senate calendar awaiting action.

Retaliation London, June 14. Despite the fact 22 British merchantmen have been attacked in Spanish waters in the last two months, Great Britain is not prepared to take retaliatory action, Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain told the House of Commons today. Instead, he said, the government is considering two proposals for prevention Of further usch outrages by purely "peaceful means." Answering growing demand fsor stern reprisals against the attack ers. Chamberlain ruled out the belligerent use of warships or antiaircraft guns on the grounds this would be tantamount to British intervention in the Spanish Civil War. As a Jesuit, the Premier warned, British ships entering war zones in the Mediterranean or elsewhere do so "at their own risk." For Britain to take an active part in the hostilities, he said, "might well result in spread of the conflict far beyond its present limits." The proposals being considered Chamberlain outlined as follows: 1 Establishment of safety zones in certain harbors.

2 Selection of a single port in Spanish Government territory outside the zones of military operations where British ships mieht discharge their cargoes unhindered.

President Benes has returned to Prague from his country estate to be within call if the negotiations reach a crucial stage. It was generally understood his government wouia attempt to settle the na tionality demands of other Czech groups such as Hungarians, Slovaks and Poles at the same time as those of Henlein. A spokesman for Premier Milan Hodza disclosed over the week' end that the government itself had already drafted a tentative nation alities statute. This presumably will be laid side by side with the Henlein memorandum and all ef forts made to reconcile the two.

At the same time, the spokesman vigorously denied intimations the Hodza government is not anxious to reach a solution.

IW Prmm tmrnflm Dill remarks, the question became so teresling jhatit topkjup mpstjJL the morning session. Dr. Bishop declared that for the past one and one-half years, in his official capacity, he has been touring Pennsylvania and talking to medical pharmaceutical and nurse groups in a hope of remedying conditions that had been rapidly growing worse, reaching a point where the future of doctors, druggists and nurses was really endangered. At the outset, he stated that if there -ever was-a time when the healing arts groups should get together, that time was the present.

He said that in this hurly-burly world of today the only solution was "Co-operation, co-ordination and cohesion," a slogan he adopted since becoming neaa 01 the State medical jroup. His first suggestion was that action be immediate and that doc tors, nurses pharmacists each- ap point special commmees 10 meet in conference and work out a co-ordi nate program. He went on to say that since 1902 there have been six teen medical surveys in the State. The first problem he brought to the convention was need of authentic information to offset the claim of a group of people the States who are asserting, and that somewhat vociferously, that they are not receiving medical aid and attention. In short, he pointed out the necessity of gathering reliable in-foration to show that in the present economic state, doctors, nurses anddruggists are giving of their time and talents in bringing aid to those who need it and are unable to pay.

run Vjuesiionnaires Such information, he proposed be gathered by means of questionnaires that are going out to all related healing arts groups. There are eight direct questions for answer -witn tne opportunity iu make whatever suggestions are necessary. His second problem, and that the biggest of the two, related to use of the pharmacopoeia, by both doc tors and pharmacists, in we writing of prescriptions by doctors and their compounding by druggists. Ths was the old method of practice, prior to the day when proprietary medicines began to appear in abundance on the shelves of drug stores. He deplored the fact doctors very often prescribed proprietary medicines, the "compounding" on the part of the druggist being nothing more than to relieve the.

label from a package on the shelf and paste on the medical name, adding date and name of doctor. On the other hand, he found ground for complaint over the fact that druggists sometimes overstep tne etnicai bounds and suggest patent remedies for the ailments of their patrons. From these two complaints the convention became animated, not in any controversial sense, but in a spirit that something was wrong and that a remedy was needed. Many of the delegates asked questions of the medical president and he answered. There was at times a conflict in opinions but generally there was acceptance of the belief that all groups are at fault in some way or another and that relief must come in getting together.

Dr. Bishop pointedly stated: "If we get together, work in co-operation, we can get what we want in Pennsylvania, politically or otherwise." Dr. Bishop also pointed out the advanced use of electrical theraupy. and declared this a danger to the healing arts, but this question wa only lightly mentioned and not ae bated. Another point that the exchange of ideas brought out was that social and economic problems are besetting the healing arts and that something haa got to be done about this matter too.

Several of the delegates talked on the advancement of socialized medicine and for a while there wa a business question before the body, this dealing with costs, expenditures and so on, leaving the impression that extensive use of proprietary medicines has greatly reduced income. After Dr. Bishop had asked and answered many questions, he was voted thanks for his presence be fore the group and after he had left the convention hall, a retolu tion was speedily enacted promiv ine co-ordinated effort of the body in meeting with doctors and nurses in a hope to a return to the days when the doctor prescribed and the druggist compounded not from the packages on his shelves but from the bottles displayed there. Soon after the convention swung; Into the program for the morning The session was devoted to reports which were as follows: Henry Brown, reporting on the American Pharmaceutical Association conven tion; Nathan H.

John T. Fenton responded in behalf of era tic party, brought these de-velopments: 1. Guffey's unqualified support of the Earle-Jones ticket, approved by 61 of his 65 county leaders. 2. Pointed refusal of Lieutenant Governor Thomas Kenndy and his running mate, Judge Ralph H.

Indicated amendment of the party jules to permit Senator Guffey representation on the State committee through election of Edward N. Jones, Kennedy campaign manager, as co-vice chairman. 4. Indications Senator Guffey would assume the role of campaign manager for the Earle-Jones ticket. The partial party peace found Senator Guffey, State Chairman Lawrence, and gubernatorial nominee Charles Alvin Jones exchanging speeches of friendship and de votion to eacn other loiiowing a ti-t adnntion bv the Guffev County chairmen of support for the organ ization ticket.

County leaders re presenting Luzerne, Fayette, Lawrence and Cameron Counties voted aeainst the "peace" resolution. Kennedy, who motored to tne meeting with Guffey from Wash ington, termed the Guffey action premature, ill-advised and nur ried" in an address to the county chairmen. As long as individuals high within the Democratic party remained "under a cloud," he said, the Guffey-Kennedy forces should remain apart. There was no oc casion, he added, for such an early commitment He referred to the graft and corruption charges here against the Earle administration. When the resolution nevertheless passed and Senator Guffey announced Chalres Alvin Jones and Lawrence would be asked to ad dress the meeting, Kennedy per-emotorilv left He could not.

he said, remain true to his convictions and stay. He left immediately for Washington where it was presumed he would confer with John L. Lewis, CIO chairman. Four county chairmen who worked for Kennedy in his unsuccessful Democratic orimary fight stood squarely behind him in his refusal to "rush in" with endorsement of the organization nominees. At least one of them, jonn Roney, Fayette, promised to ex pand his views from the floor this afternoon as an invited guest at the Democratic State Committee meeting.

Roney voted "no" on a resolution of organization endorsement sum-mitted by U. S. Senator Joseph F. Guffey at last night's conference of Guffey-Kennedy county leaders. Chairman John Carroll, Luzerne, Mel George, Lawrence and Daniel Sullivan, Cameron, also voiced dis sent to the 61 votes of approval.

"When they give me better evi dence that they are for Senator Guffey and Kennedy, IH go along," Roney declared. Roney described himseii as tne first reorisal" Victim in Fayette County following the May 17 primary. He said he was dismissed ax a county clerk but that the ouster did not enter into his present stand. I'm not speaking for myself, but for the Kennedy people in Fayette County," he concluded.
