M Neil Replies To Critics At Meeting On Full Crew Bill
At Henry A Bishops page meeting last evening resolutions were adopted criticizing Senator McNeil Jr for opposing the full crew bill and praising Meltzer Bent Paddock and Bartlett for supporting it. Peter O Hearn of Stamford urged trainmen to vote against those who oppose them and denounced the railroad lobby as he recounted efforts against the bill. Senator McNeill confirmed he would issue a statement defending his vote, saying the measure would add trainmen on freight trains but not on passenger service. He noted the Public Utilities Commission would review the proposal and defended his vote as aligned with the committee report.

He rebuts Bryan and critics, asserts no need to amend the Sherman Law, and cites his 1910 Sherman Law message as aligned with court interpretation. The speech highlights that the court did not emasculate the law and rejects calls for broader regulation. In Pontiac, he is greeted by 2,000 schoolchildren and honors James A. Leroy, Philippine commissioner, who died of tuberculosis.
