WASHINGTON, Oct. 15 (Copy right, 1919).—These are critical mo- ments in American history and ner- second victim—Samuel Gompers, the foremost spokesman of Labor. House. Capital and Labor needed Wilson’s inspiration to bring about agreement, movements is suddenly subtracted from the conference. Rudderless, and still without a/ strong enough feeling of compulsion | to take the initiative in vital ques- tions, the industrial ‘ence moves on partly on hope, partly on a blind confidence that more dis- cussion will bring something con- crete, but mostly because of a fear of what the public would say if the conference did collapse. Every important conference has {ts ups and downs.

It seemed for a while as if labor would lose all confidence in the con ference because of that refusal, But something tangible has been of- fered which must keep labor in at- tendance at the conference as here- tofore.
