ranization of foreigners should be a
. Immediate effort of congress throug
legislation, declared Senator Kenyon
of Iowa, chairman of the senate labor
, committee, which returned today
, from an Investigation of the steel
-strike in the Pittsburg district. As
erting that about half of the steel
' workers are of foreign birth and
- cannot read, write or speak Knglish,
feenator Kenyon said one of the firs
aims of congress as a result of the
committee's inquiry should be Amerl
conization legislation.
In a formal statement Issued late
. today Senator Kenyon said:
"I do not desire to discuss the steel
. atrike nor the reasons nor causes
therefore at this time. The commit
tee has not as yet completed Its In
vestigation. I think it permissible to
ay. however, that the committee re
turned from the Pittsburg district
strongly In favor of some American
lxation bill.
AmrtiraaUna Rallying Pol at.
"I have thought for a long while
that congress must do what It could
to help stimulate Americanism. That
is a common ground upon which we
! can stand, and is a rallying point for
; all. When you find that in some of
these mills over 50 per cent of the
workmen cannot read, write or speak
the American language: when it is
necessary In these mill districts, to
publish orders In all kinos of langu
ages, it Is time for the American peo
ple represented by the American con
jrress to give determined considera
tion to some plan of affording these
foreign citizens an opportunity to
learn what the institutions of Amer
ica stand for and to become Ameri
canized. "We saw some young fellows whe
had only a smattering of our tongue
. who Impressed us as splendid ma
' terial out of which to make Americas
citizens.

"Two bills are now pending before
the committee of which I have the
honor to be chairman, dealing with
this question. The committee meets
. this week to take them up, and I
earnestly hope that one or both of
them may be reported out of the com.
. m It tee and may be passed by con
: arress before adjournment.
".Many of those who cannot speak
. our language are yearning to know
it and want the opportunity to learn
. about our institutions. Most of then
' have subscribed for liberty bonds, but
how can they know anything about
American institutions when they can
not speak America's language. W
cannot reach a one-language natios
over night, but that eventually should
be our goa". Eight and a. half million
pouple in this country over ten years
01 age cannot speak, read or write
the American language."

"iron division" and other German de

LONDON. Oct. 1J. It Is officially

statement Is published here formally
denying the alleged statement In the
Lettish appeal to the entente that
German troops In the Baltic provinces
have done everything possible to sup
port bolshevism and have attacked
the Letts from the rear. The German
rejoinder declares that this statement
Is contrary to the truth and is an ab
horrent measure of agitation against
Germany.
Germany has not broken the peace,
it is declared, but on the contrary,
has done everything to enforce the
terms of peace in the case of misled
troops In a portion of the Baltic prov
inces. It Is a matter of record, it Is
declared, that the Baltic troops (Ger
mans) have not been the attackers,
but that their return to Germany has
been delayed and hindered by hostile
acts of the Letts and Ksthonians.

No announcement of additional millt

having begun operations. Neither were
there any claims made of large num

plants that have been working.
Strike leaders at the headquarters
of the steel workers' national commit

inflow of workers, the union leaders
maintained there were no defections.

The Pittsburg strike district was

several hundred strikers when they
attempted to hold a meeting at North

While the troopers were clearing
the streets a shot was fired from

MEDFORD. Or.. Oct 13. (Special.!
With a fine showing of histrionic
talent, the Med ford commercial club
staged in impressive manner its con
ception of the relationship between
Portland and Medford. It was at the
banquet tendered the visitors by the
people of this community in the big
dining room of the hotel Medford.
St. Peter, mounted' on his golden
throne, summoned to his presence the
two supplicants for admission beyond
the pearly gates, one a man of portly
figure, a bit pompous, with perhaps
a touch of petulance, representing
Portland, the other slight, undersized
and with an appearance of under
nourishment, the personification of
Medford.
Record la Purged.
When angel messengers were com
manded to bring the record book
deeds. St- Peter enumerated the
counts entered there against the
prosperous individual and operating
to the disadvantage of the little chap.
The effect was accentuated By the
summoning, one by one, of the prom
inent business men from the metro
polis that the record might be purged
to permit the passage through the
guarded gates.
Finally the good saint ruled that
Portland penance must take the
form of securing for Medford the
greatly desired paved highway to
Crater Lake.
Considering the wealth of the
region centering here, the Portland
men were reluctant to accept the por
trayal of Medford as underfed. Thous-

the afternoon, extending from the
upper end of Sams valley, above Gold
Hill, to Jacksonville, and witn
width at some points attaining' 15
miles.
Pear Shipments Heavy.
Of pears, 744 cars have been
shipped, and less than a tenth of the
apple crop is packed, shipments to
date having been 84 cars. Other hun
dreds of carloads sent to markets ol
the world represent the harvest ot
peaches and small fruits and the
value of the crop of this season is
conservatively placed at $2,500,000.
In the sections of the valley devoted
to general farming and stock-raising.
splendid fields of corn are being
husked. Numerous silos mark the
dairy farms. In the drive the visitors
were taken to the Rosseau coal mine,
recently opened, and now producing
an average of ten tons per day which
Is all sold locally for heating and
steam plant purposes. In another lo
cality an oil well prospect was a point
of interest. The drill has attained
only slight depth, but it is hoped it
will reveal interesting results in de
fining the geological structure of this
region.
One of the high lights of the day
was a visit to the shrine of southern
Oregon financiers, the historic bank
ing house of the late C. C. Beekman.
with its balances used for weighing
gold and unique framed notices to
customers that have adorned the
walls since Jacksonville was a sta
tion on the overland stage route.
Special Trala Delayed.
Owing to derailment of a freight
car laden with canned salmon near
Merlin last night, the special train
was held up for three hours at Leland.
Arriving at Medford at noon, the party
was welcomed by a delegation of busi
nessmen, headed by President George
Treichnor of the commercial club, and
Will G. Steel, secretary; and escorted
for a brief glimpse of the business
district, where splendid exhibits of
Oregon manufactured products were
on display in windows of stores and
shops.
Medford business men were guests
of the Portland visitors at luncheon
at the Medford hotel, where Mayor
C. E. Gates welcomed the delegation
and assured them of the pleasure it
afforded to have a chance to show the
attractions of the city and valley. On
behalf of Portland, C C Chapman and
Marshall N. Dana spoke briefly and
the party, under leadership of E. N.
Strong. Introduced songs that had
been prepared especially for the occa
sion.
Nathan Strauss, chairman of the
excursion committee, at the banquet
tonight voiced the desire of the Port
land Chamber of Commerce for i
continuance of the pleasant relations
between Portland and Medford. He
felicitated the community on its
achievements in horticultural and in
dustrial lines and gave assurance that
Portland stands ready to do her part
in matters of atate development. He
bespoke co-operative work of the dif
ferent sections of the state in which
each would receive benefits through
the helpfulness that could be given
others, and all advance as the out
come of such a policy.
A. H. Devers spoke in optimistic
vein or the progress that is being
made throughout Oregon, with espe
cial praise for the progressive spirit
of the people of Medford and as
sured his hearers that Portland re
joices In the fact that southern Ore
gon is on the crest of a wave of
unexampled prosperity.

individual business men, chambers of
commerce. business clubs, labor
unions, city and state officials are
working Individually upon plans for
the future. Business men are study
ing and thinking. Chambers of com
merce are investigating and plan
ning and tn many sections labor lead
ers are planning with business men in
an effort to reach a common understanding.
John Galsworthy, speaking in New
York some time ago. Said that "under
standing is the greatest thing in life,'
and added that "energy and common
sense" were the great attributes of
the Anglo-Saxon peoples.
This is exactly what the United
States is beginning to realize, and
because this desire for an "under
standing" is nation wide and also be
cause the "energy and common sense"
of this country are not limited to any
one section, progress is being made.
Conference Looked To.
For a general "understanding" the
nation Is depending upon the Wash
ington conference, but the "energy
and common sense" will have to be
displayed in individual houses. Indus
tries, commercial organizations and
cities.
It Is a fact that this problem of in
dustry and labor will have to be
solved ultimately by individuals.
Hence the steps which have been
taken in various sections of this coun
try by Individuals, if stated briefly
in an article, may be helpful In point
ing out hat preparations are being
made for the walls and roof of this
new industrial structure.
One of the main causes of unrest,
discontent, strikes and disturbances is
a lack of understanding. Too often
the employes have heard but one side
of industrial and labor problems. I
know of factories, for Instance, where
many laboring men thought the entire
income of a factory should be paid to
labor; where workmen knew nothing
about the money that was necessary
to finance a business or to buy raw
materials or pay overhead expenses.
This is an extreme case, perhaps, but
this was learned by a Cleveland con
cern when it asked its employes to
answer a series of questions about the
management and financing of a busi
ness. Viewpoint Is Limited.
Undoubtedly many business men
could cite instances which have come
to their attention where workers have
shown astonishing ignorance about
the plants where they were em
ployed. Often employes have seen
but one small part of a machine which
they were instrumental in building
Often their viewpoint of a great in
dustry has been limited to one room
or one work bench.
Where there is a lack of knowledge
by employes of the business which
employs them, there is always ground
for disagreements and discontent.
Many factories and stores have
their "house organs" and bulletins
but it is astonishing to find how few
business men think it necessary to
explain any problems of their own
business to the employes. It is not
because they have regarded the men
and women as machines. I think that
day is past; but the business men as
a rule do not think it important to
talk management, finance, sales, pur
chases, etc, with the employes, and
as a result these employes, when they
become at all disgruntled, are easy
prey for the agitator and "soap-box'
orator.
Landon Starts Education.
A series of articles published In the
London Times recently, entitled "Tell
the Workers," created a great impres
sion in England among business men
who did not realize how they had been
neglecting to make labor understand
business. There are publications,
movies and lectures for employes in
some advanced Institutions, but now
even the small business man Is be
ginning to realize that he must "tell
the workers" about his business.
Today advertising is at its height,
but it ia only sales advertising. In
a middle western city I met a manu
facturer who said that business men
had made great successes in this
country by advertising their prod
ucts, but they had failed in their
own plants because they did not ad
vertise their business to their em
ployee.
Charity Not Appreciated.
"Too often," he declared, "business
men have founded factory hospitals.
established playgrounds, built gym
nasiums, schools and houses and con
ducted educational classes for the
employes, but all this has been given
to them. Now no one, especially an
employe, appreciates such things
when it is a matter of charity. A busi
ness man would not think of giving
his goods away. He knows the pub
lic would not take things they can
get for nothing. People only appreci
ate what they pay for. So I have
started to advertise my business to
my employes. I am going to sell them
everything they 'set. If I put in
showerbaths for the men, I am going
to sell them to the men. make them
pay for it, and I shall see to It that
their wages are high enough that
they can have what they need and pay
for the installation.
'But what I mean by saying that
business men must sell their business
to employes Is that they must ad
vertise their business to employes and
advertise their employes to the pub
lic.
'When I was traveling along the
Pacific coast I read in a San Fran
cisco newspaper several advertise
ments by a large jewelry concern, ad
vertising the employes to the public
In the concluding paragraph of one
advertisement was this sentence:
"Salesmen are never perfect, and
mine are no exception; but" notice
hem the next time you are in see
if they don't stack up pretty well
above the average in courtesy, Intel-
igence and honesty, as exhibited in
the representations they make re
garding merchandise and the advice
they offer.
Another advertisement read:
"Every salesman in my employ,
every man on the floor meeting the
public, is a partner in this business,
in that he snares in tho yearly earn
ings. This applies, also, to the office
force, bookkeepers and stenographers,
the janitor and the errand boy."
"Tell the workers" is a good plan
in England. It might be a good thing
for this country, and to this might
be added: "Tell the public too," "un
derstanding is the greatest thing in
life."
Individual Men, are. however, not
the only ones to make an effort to

ighted chambers ot .
commerce which are taking the lead
in their own cities in bringing about
a closer understanding between em
ployers, employes and the public. The
Cleveland chamber of commerce,
through its Industrial committee, has
made an exhaustive study of "vio
lence in labor disputes" for the pur
pose of finding the causes and show
ing the public and labor and capital
how all three groups are harmed by
violence.
The Chicago Association of Com
merce, through its very efficient in

understanding among employers of
industrial conditions and labor prob
lems, but of all the chambers of com
merce I came into contact with on my
trip, the Seattle chamber has done
more to bring about a thorough
understanding than any other.
Labor Leader Included.
This chamber has included in Its
membership the leaders of labor.
They are Just as welcome at all meet
ings and in all conferences as any
business man and they are coming to
an understanding In that great Pacific
coast city, because labor, capital
and the public are laying all their
cards on the table. There is full and
free discussion and if an understand
ing is possible it will be reached. In
Pueblo and other cities throughout
the nation plans are being made to
open their chambers of commerce to
abor leaders and. 1 understand, from
a circular sent out by the United
States Chamber .of Commerce that
this national body Is urging all mem
bers to adopt this policy. Some asso
ciations, too, are admitting women to
membership.
Thus the ground Is being prepared
for an understanding in many com
munities of the United States. Prep
arations are being made by Individual
business men and commercial or
ganizations for the time when they
can build the walls and roof of a new
Industrial structure. '
If this cornerstone is laid in Wash
ington, the foundation will be 'built
throughout the country and the "en

ple, the employes and employers will
make it possible for the walls and
roof to be constructed.
