Gray, 71, vice chairman of the board of the Union Pacific Railroad and its former president, was found dead in bed today at his hotel.

Discovery of Gray's death was made when associates went to his room to awaken him around 10 a.m. A son, Russell Gray of Wellesley, said his father was feeling well when he retired last evening after having dinner with another son, Carl R. Gray Jr. of St. Paul, Minn.

The elder Gray's home was New York. The three Grays were in the city on different matters. Russell Gray said his father was here on "na- tional transportation matters." ON F. D. COMMITTEE Carl Gray Sr.

had served on President Roosevelt's joint labormanagement committee appointed to work out a plan for reviving the nation's railroads. After the hotel house physician had examined the body, Russell Gray said death "undoubtedly was caused by a heart condition." C. W. Rossworn, secretary to the railroad executive, discovered that his chief was dead. He had accompanied Gray to Washington from New York.

The sons said funeral arrangements had not been made. Gray recently had appeared before Congressional committees in connection with railroad problems. BEGAN AT BOTTOM From, a payless janitor's job, which he took to learn the railroad business from the bottom rung of the ladder, Carl Raymond worked up to the presidency of the Union Pacific system. Born Sept. 28, 1867, at Princeton, Mr.

Gray was the son of Dr. Oliver C. Gray, professor of mathematics at the University of Arkansas. His mother, Virginia David Gray, was artistically inclined but Carl Gray was interested in railroading from the time college officials suggested he defer his schooling after graduation from preparatory school because he was "six feet tall and thin as a rail."

F.D. R. Meets With Coal Men Continued from Page 1 Secretary of Labor Perkins. She was accompanied by James F. Dewey, Labor Department conciliator.

The negotiations for a new soft coal contract have been deadlocked for weeks over a union demand that the operators agree to recognize a union shop or, as an alternative, eliminate from the new aontract strike, penalty, clauses, which, agree- have ment for years. The U. M. W. delegation ineluded John L.

Lewis, president 01 the union; Philip Murray, John Ovens, Van A. Bitter and David McDonald. The operators were represented by Walter Robinson, chairman' of the joint wage conference; John D. A. Morrow, Lee Gunther, Charles O'Neil and L.

T. Putnam. F. D. R.

AS MEDIATOR The Labor Secretary described the President's or role as that of a mediator. The conference marked Mr. Roosevelt's first direct intervention in a labor problem since he called leaders of the A. F. of L.

and the C. I. O. together during the Winter in an effort to make peace between the rival organizations. Miss Perkins held a long conference in New York with coal negotiators yesterday.

In the midst of that session Lewis made public Peletter to Dr. conciliator, John R. saying: Steelman, "Failure of the Roosevelt Administration to approve or sustain mine workers' offers to keep the industry in operation caused many operators to believe that they had carte blanche to disembowel the mine workers' union if they could." CLOSED SHOP NOT ISSUE Declaring that "the closed shop is not an issue here, nor has it been," Lewis said the union proposed a two-year extension of its old contract, with the addition of the following: "It is agreed that the United Mine Workers of America is recognized herein as the exclusive bargaining agency." Unless an agreement is reached quickly, Miss Perkins declared, the Government must make recommendations. She did not disclose them, but added that a "practical course" might be adopted for supplying coal in industries threatened with a fuel famine. Services Are Held For Mrs.

SERVICE RENDERED BY MEN OF UNDERSTANDING AND EXPERIENCE Funeral Directors 423 Nostrand Ave. STerling 3-7700 Queens jurors will not allowed to pass on the guilt or innocence of Sanitation Commissioner William P.

Carey and Health Commissioner John L. Rice, who, with two private corporations, were indicted in that county for alleged violation of the penal law in dumping garbage and refuse there. Justice Edward Riegelmann in Brooklyn Supreme Court today granted a change of venue on the officials' plea that the residents of Queens have been so steamed up by an intensive campaign against the dumping program that they could not get a fair trial. Brooklyn will not have to try them. Justice Riegelmann declared he will order the trial in any county agreed upon by the Corporation Counsel and Queens Assistant District Attorney J.

Irwin Shapiro, who fought the venue plea with the argument a large percentage of Queens people had been influenced in favor defendants by "inspired publicity in the Manhattan While Justice Riegelmann gave no reason for keeping Brooklyn free of the trial, it was explained unofficially that Brooklyn courts will be rather fully occupied with their own congested calendars. It was considered likely that the prosecution and defense will agree on Manhattan, designated by Justice Philip A. Brennan as the place of trial of Commissioner Carey and others on indictments voted by a Staten Island grand jury, which, like Queens, staged a hot campaign against the Carey program for that borough. Both sides presented big books of newspaper clippings commenting both ways on the dumping question. Justice Riegelmann declared that Carey and Rice had made a sufficient showing to warrant a change of venue.

The New York City Waterfront Company and the estate of John B. Hopkins, are named as defendants in the indictments. Charles L. Parks Charles L.
