18 THK MORNING OBEGOXIAN, TTTESD A Y, OCTOBER 19, 1915. MUTUAL PLAN URGED All Organizations Have Same Object, Says Labor Leader. UNDERSTANDING ISADVISED Better Results In Solving . Prob lems Mould Follow, Eugene K. Smith Tells Cliamber of Com ' merce Members Body. "When organized labor and the organizations of business men can learn to get closer together and to try to develop a mutual understanding, they will find that both will accom plish more toward the solution of the important problems that deal with the happiness of humanity," declared Eu gene E. Smith, president of the Central Labor Council, in his address before the Members' Council of the Chamber of Commerce yesterday noon. Mr. Smith held that there is little difference in the aims and in the ulti mate motives of business men and laboring men who organize, and said that the associations of the bar, the medical profession, the dental profes sion and numerous other branches of professional activity are essentially the same as trades unions and are organ ized for the same purpose to increase the efficiency of the worker and to bet ter his conditions of living. Platform Similarities Cited. He read the platform of the labor organizations and pointed out wherein it closely resembled the platforms of other organizations which are avow edly working for the betterment of livins conditions for the human race. "We should recognize that just as we find the most efficient and best in formed business men in organized business bodies, the most efficient and best professional men in professional organizations, so we will find, after all Is said, that the best informed and most efficient men in the laboring classes are to be found m the organ ized bodies.' He called attention to the recent re port of the Federal Bureau of Indus trial Relations and declared that If every business man would obtain a copy of that document and study it carefully. It would do more to remove many of the misunderstandings about labor than anything else that could be done. Check on Idleness Asserted. He asserted that if it had not been for the persistent efforts of the organ ized labor bodies to secure shorter hours and other improved conditions, the country today would find itself dealing with an unemployment situ ation ten times more serious than it now faies. Rev. Luther R. Dyott, of the First Cons relational Church, spoke on the work of the religious bodies in the city In dealing with the problem of unemployment.

A letter from Juvenile Judge Cleeton advocating the establishment of an in dustrial school for boys has been re ferred by the County Commissioners to the advisory budget committee, which will hold its first meeting November 1 Judge Cleeton suggested that 10 or 20 acres of the old county farm on the Canyon road could be set aside for this purpose. "It appeals to me," said Commis sioner Holman. "that if anything of this kind is to be done we better could utilize a portion of the present county farm near Troutdale. the bovs being kept strictly segregated from the pres ent inmates, of course. There we have a skilled farmer, who could instruct them in agriculture." With reference to this idea Commis sioner Lightner. chairman of the Board, said that the county cannot spare 20 acres from the Troutdale farm, as Its present area of 193V acres is little enough. No opinion as to favoring or dis favoring the scheme was expressed by the Commissioners. lat the Seward. Mrs. White is head- liner at the Orpheum this week. X.

Father Schoener, whose accomplish ments in Oregon have rivaled those of Luther Burbank in California, lost prac tically everything he had by fire a few days ago and is . Imost destitute. Prior to the time of the fire the Cham ber of Commerce had been negotiating with him on plans to bring his experi mental farm to Portland, so that all of his discoveries Tnight be secured to the State of Oregon. The committee which is conducting tne solicitation for funds to bring him here at once and establish him has de cided, after investigation, that his work promises to be too valuable to the state for him to be permitted through adversity or other influences to be tak en away from Oregor The emergency fund, that is being raised must reach a total of at least $625 for the preliminary establishment of Father Schoener here. Afterward other plans will be considered. Coe IicKenna has offered to donate to Father Schoener the use of a ten acre tract on the Peninsula and a bouse near the tract to be used as a residence. Other offers have been made, and Fath er Schoener will come to Portland in a few days to look over the site and to talk with the committee of the Cham ber of Commerce on tne plans for his coming here permanently.
