Rockefeller Industrial Plan Called Failure by McLennan Colorado Springs, Colo.,, Aug. 15— wide range of labor topics are dealt with in the annual report of John McLennan, president of the Colorado State Federation of Labor, submitted to the convention of the federation here today. The so-called “Rockefeller Indus- trial plan,” adopted by the Colorado Fuel and Iron company, is declared to be an “unqualified failure.” The Industrial commission and workmen'’s compensation laws of Colorado are severely criticised in some respects and praised in others. Conditions in the coal mining fields are reviewed and a glowing report is given of the rowth of unionism in the state and egislation deemed necessary is out- lined. Generally, the report says, better feeling appears to prevail between em‘rlpyer and employe in the state and in the coal fields improvements noted are credited to the results of the strike of 1913-1914, Reviewing the so-called Rockefeller Industrial plan, President McLennan says: “This plan has been advertised as a cure-all for labor's ills; byt it has in reality failed to cure anything. They sought to give their nonunion Paralysis Epidemic Takes Turn for Worse New York, Aug. 15.—The epidemic of infantile paralysis has taken a turn for the worse despite the continuation of unusual cool weather. During the twenty-four hours ending at 10 a. m. today, 163 ne wcases of the disease and thirty-nine deaths were reported, an increase in new cases of nearly 100 er cent over yesterday's figures. ailure of physicians to report cases over the Sunday holiday was sug- gested as a reason for the increase. Since the epidemic began there have been 6,532 cases and 1,464 deaths, New Jersey’s state-wide quarantine against the plague was put into effect today. Special guards were placed at all terminal gomts to prevent chil- dren under 16 years of age from en- tering the state and local restrictions of the most stringent. character were ordered at the various coast resorts. workman something which would make them imagine they were being organized. The plan is an unquali- fied failure from every standpoint but one. It has given the capitalistic press agents a chance to talk, write and print. . “The real substance of this plan is that the employer herds his men together, keeps tab on each, tells them when, where and how to meet; attends their meetings anc overawes them with his presente. Meetings purely of the men have no place in the plan.” Referring to the effects of the re- cent coal strike, President McLennan says conditions have been improved, but declares these hnprovements are not due to the Rockefeller plan, but the result of publicity gained during the strike. Gompers Answers Criticism Made by Senator Sherman Washington, Aug. 15.—Samuel Gompers made reply today to Senator Sherman, who yesterday denounch him in the senate as a ‘“public nuisance,” during a characterization of certain labor leaders as arbitrary and tyrannical. “It is impossible for me to be ar- bitrary or tyrannical,” said Gompers, “for there are no such powers vested in the president of the American Fed- eration of Labor. I have not the power to deliver the vote of any man or group of men.” Socialist Presidential Candidate to Speak Here Arthur E.
