by a declaration from some defcegatea
that they would stirk to the new party

pendence of India represented by Tarak
Kata Dos of New York.
Difficulties between the programs of
the committee of JS aud the labor party
remain acute where they touch on the
railroad problem leaders of both groups
said Saturday.. Both groups stand for
government ownership but differ as to
the amount of "democratic management"
which would attach to the transportation
systems if they should be taken over
by the government.
