2 FESEEL [ C.0FC,BULDING " AGTATIVG LABOR Question of “Open or Closed . Shop” on Big Structure | Causes Inquiries. Both “opan shop” end “closed,” or waién shop, advocates are turning their attention these days to the construction of the $2,000,000 perma- ment home for the United States Chaniber of Commerce, for which the corner stere will be laid Tuesday. *“Pow will it be built?” is the fore- most question in the minds of ob- Servera b The answer was personally pre- wepted tc President Samuel Gompers ot the American Federation of Labor by Vice President Elliott H. Goodwin of the chamber, the executive of its affairs, a short time ago, in reply to & letter from President Gompers ask- ing information along this line. The discussion arose of reports coming all the way from the Pacific coast that the construction of the chamber’s new home would be ac- complished without a tool in the hands of a union workman. Gompers Asks Information. President Gompers wanted to know 88 to the truth of this assertion and he wrote a letter to the Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Goodwin paid the labor leader & personal visjt with his letter of re- ply. Following the interview Mr. Goodwin is quoted as saving that the big construction job wculd be “oll right if the radical labor man and the radical business man can be kept out of it.” he American Federation of Labor 48 saying nothing about the matter. Ot was stated at the office of Mr. Gompers yesterday that the inter- wview took place, but no further in- formation was vouchsafed. Mr. Goodwin, however, said that he pointed out when the American Fed- eration of Labor building was con- Ftructed it was done under the closed shop plan. The American Plan. “They really couldn't consistently @o anything else,” he said. “And I maintain that we can't consistently do anything other than build our building _under the American plan, under which men will be hired for the work without attention as to ‘Wwhether they belong to a labor union or_do not bélong to one.” Goodwin assured the labor Jeader that the chamber was primar- ily engaged in the erection of a building and not in starting an in- dustrial row, and also said that the reports from the west coast were exaggerations. Mr. Gompers primary point of in- quiry, it developed, was to ascertain whether the chamber intended to make the enterprise an anti-union demonstration in Washington under the very noses of the men officially responsible for the conduct of labor N orgagization. Upon assurances to the ®ontrary, the matter has been dropped, it is understood, and all concerned regard the exchanges as banter, for the present. SERGT. DORR RELIEVED. First Sergt.

GAKE BOWLES UBEAR, 116 Ea2y Capitol st X oy ] The relation between the inter- allied debts and world trade is set forth in an outline of information for {the use of delegates who will attend here this week the tenth annual meet- ing of the Chamber of Commerce of th: United States. The general sub- ject for discussion at the annual meeting is “European Conditions and Their Effecc on American Business. The interall.ed debt report, prepared for the chamber's foreign affairs committee, is put out for the purpose of acqualnting the delegates with the facta of the debt situation. It is pointed out in the report that the debts of the allies to the United States alone are substantially greater than the present available gold stocks of the world. “To settle by actual shipments of gold_ the bare interest payments due the United States gov- ernment in one year would require nearly 30 per cent of the total gold of the allied governments in 1919," according to the report. “Since one of the great sources of economic difficulty in Europe is the depleted gold stock or gold of the former bel- ligerent powers, it is apparent that to require further depletion of these reserves in payment of debts to the United States would have disastrous effects upon European recovery.” Hold Untavorable Balance. The capacity of the allied countries to pay their debts to the United States by building up trade balances in this country, and _ thereby _establishing surplus’ gold Tredits with which to meet their obligations to this gov- ernment, is analyzed in the report. The figures show that the allied coun- tries had an unfavorable balance in direct visible trade with this coun- in 1920 amounting to about § 191,050,000. On this point the report explains that only “Cuba, Greece and Serbia show a favorable visible balance either before or after the war; and that the grand total, in all cases of the trade of these debtor nations with the United States, shows an un-' favorable balance both before and after the war. Moreover, the post- war figures are very much more un- favorable than those before the war, and will probably continue to be 80 while Europe is underproducing and laboring with unbalanced budgets.” Payment Now Fantastical. An examination of the total foreign trade figures of the debtor nations showed that in 1920 these nations had an unfavorable balance of more than $5,000,000,000. “In the face of the un- favorable balance disclosed,” accord- ing to the report, “it is fanfastic to expect these countries at present to pay their debts to the United States out of an excess of exports over im- ports in direct trade with them. The! figures also show no present prospect that the debts can be liquidated from triangular operations in world trade, resulting in the different countries bullding up credits in this country.

Such a development is im- possible under present conditions. A possible exception might arise in the case of Great Britain through the invisible jtems of foreign trade which might be utilized in payments to the United States. Great Britain does have a net credit balance (resulting from these invisible items added to the visjble exports) which amounted in 1920 to 160,000,000 paper pounds. Unless it is shown that the Buropean debt and reparations are to be paid in full, the other countries have no credit balances nor are they likely to have for many years to come. Increased to $10,000,000, It is shown in the report thdt up to the time when American troops began to play an Important pa.t in France In June and July, 1918, the United States government loans to the allles amounted to $5,966,514,000 and had increased at the time of the armistice to $7,000,000,00 “Since that date borrowings under the liberty tloan acts have Increased these debts to about ten billion dol- “Subsequent to the armistice the debts of the allied governments to the United States government were further increased by other measure: connected with the restoration of or- der in Europe and with relief for the clyjlian population (a) by borrowing money to purchase surplus war mate- rial ‘from the War and depart- ments; (b) by loans obtained to pay for supplies furnished from the Amer- ican Relief Association: (&) by loans obtalned to pay for supplies secured from the United States Grain Corpor- atlon. Debts incurred under these last three heads further augment the debts of the allied and associated powers to the United States govern- ment by $518,000,000 principal and ac- crued interest. Thus the aggregate government debt of these powers is now in excess of $11,300,000,000, prin- cipal and accrued interest. Credit Balance Required. “It i{s evident that the payment of the interallied debts requires first an international credit balance arising ] out of trade and other financial re- lations, and second, that, granting there s such a balance, it is still nec- cesary for each country to secure from taxation the means with which buy the ®bills of exchange from cporters and others with which to pay the debts. This raises the fiscal problem in each country. It is not imaginable that in addition to the tax burdens which the people in those countries already bear, still further taxes could be levied adequate to ef- fect the purchase of bills of exchange in order to make debt payments in this country. In fact, it would ap- pear that the budget situation is such in all the allled countries that they could not pay now, even though the trade balance was fixed. This sum- mary of the situation covering the debts, the gold stock, foreign trade and a reference to the budget situ tion in the former beligerent coun- tries indicates. the grave difficulties which surround the settlement of the interallied debts.” and Dr. J. C. A. Everwijn, minister of the Netherlands to the United States, will talk on European condl- tions from a Netherlands standpoint. Shipping Problem Up.
