Pray Attorney General Daugherty Says Government is Not Party to Proceedings U. S. WILL NOT BLOCK PLANS Hearing on Petition to Restrain Temporary Injunction is to Be Held Today By tho Associated Press. WASHINGTON, Sept. 8.

On the basi3 of personal reports to certain administration leaders, a more optimistic view of the railroad strike situation was apparent today in government circles than in the past week. Several officials, who have been in close personal touch with strike developments, declared that settlement of tho labor controversy on a number of roads was a "probable" result of the series of conference? which they understood to be in progress in Chicago. The extent to which the negotiations might go toward affecting a national settlement was not forecast in these circles, but the hope was expressed that a partial peace with 'key" roads might serve as was the case in the bituminous coal settlement as a starting point for a general settlement. Willard Arranges Meetings. The Chicago meetings were said to have been largely a result of efforts on the part of Daniel Willard, of the Ha'timoro Ohio railroad, who was understood to have associated with Mm rciircscntatlves of about 85,000 miles of operated track.

"Tho suggestion that such negotiation ho Interfered with by the tern porary restraining order granted by J'jdge "NVilkerson is In my Judgment wholly unjustified.

The only concern of the government Is industrial peace and the restoration of transportaion. Any conference between the railroad executives and their former employes tr. adiust their crlevances Is in the interests of industrial peace and would not find any obstacle on the part of the government. Government 'WiU Not Interfere. "The government would not contend that either party to the controversy was denied by the temporary restraining order any right or opportunity to confer bctweon themselves as to the possible terms of such settlement.

The government is not a partisan in mis labor controversy. It champions neither the employer nor the employe their differences are for them to ad lust.
