PROGRESSIVE BUSINESS MEN CONVERTING OTHER MEMBERS. The more pfogressive thinking business men were converting slowly the conservative, slow turning in dividuals who were clinging desper- ately to principles of bygone days. The employers want to go on. Chairman Lane wants the conference to continue, And, irrespective of whether the procedure or form of meeting is changed, the discussion will go on. For the influence and | impulse of the President and the Gov- || ernment itself is behind that wish A coal strike is impending. A |] steel strike drags on. The railroad ||] brotherhoods renew their demands, || The Plumb plan stands in the back- || ground as an alternative in the minds of the railroad men just as more strikes and more industrial warfare appeal to the labor leaders as their only means of bringing cap- ||} ital to terms. Physical force ag a |] later resort is the programme of labor, and only by moral pressure can such @ purpose be Wefeated, ') LABOR GROUP NOT VERY WELL HANDLED, | The fact of the matter is that labor didn’t handle itself at all well in, the conference—insisting upon action on the steel strike before ; anything else; insisting on a final vote on collective bargaining with- |out getting a record of the views of |the employers on any other subject; insisting on its own phraseology on | collective bargaining and refusing |]| the fair statement on that subject prepared by the public group. There is no question that many members of the latter group, other- wise disposed to be friendly to labor, were disappointed by the tactics or strategy of the Gompers group. But ‘even Mr. Gompers did not have har- mony inside his group. He no doubt wanted to stay on, but some of his followers insisted that such a step would ‘be futile. Yet, while technically labor is out of the conference, actually it is not. Informal hearings or meetings can be held wherein the point of view of labor cam be heard or expressed, and the final draft of the principles that both capital and labor should in the judgment of the public group accept, will yet be submitted to both.

In reply to The Evening World's question as to why there is a profit on the sale of army food Dr. Day said: “The theory was that there should be no profit, But there were elements of cost that could not be preciseiy \\ 4231 Chiffon Velvet Bad, $12.60 NEW Tt is a new departure for Ovington's to show. hand bags —a departure justified only by the bags themselvés and their OVINGTON’S “The Gift Shop of 5th Ave.” elt Fifth Av.,near 32dSt. ||| Does it belong legally to O'Malley | f f ‘or the pithy !
